The New York City Police Department has an annual budget of over 5 billion dollars and is one of the largest police forces in the world. So, why are its officers spending a huge chunk of their time responding to thousands of mental health crisis calls—situations many aren't extensively trained for? This question has sparked a fierce debate about the future of policing in the city. And right in the middle of it is Zohran Mamdani, New York's Mayor-elect and one of the most prominent progressive voices in city politics. Mamdani is proposing a major overhaul of public safety, a billion-dollar idea for a new Department of Community Safety that could fundamentally change the NYPD's role forever. But what would that actually look like on the streets of New York? Is it a radical experiment, or just a common-sense solution? Today, we're breaking down Zohran Mamdani's plan, separating the politics from the policy, and explaining how it could reshape policing in New York. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Zohran Mamdani was just elected to be the next Mayor of New York City. How did an anti-American, anti-Capitalism, anti-Jew, anti-Western millennial become the most powerful person in the largest city in the United States? I wanted to know. So, I talked with Zineb Riboua – a research fellow with Hudson Institute's Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East. She's written extensively on the Middle East and the ongoing power struggles in one of the most violent and unstable regions in the world. But what does Middle Eastern politics have to do with New York City and Zohran Mamandi? Zineb argues that the ideology that led the Left to believe that Israel and Britian were the fundamentally evil powers in Europe and the Middle East because of their “colonialization” is the same ideology that Zohran used to capture the attention and votes of the suicidal Democratic ideologues in New York City. The younger generations white colonialization guilt and Third Worldism philosophy were key factors in Zohrans ability to manipulate the American people in the largest city in the country to vote for a self-proclaimed Marxist Socialist. So, what happens to New York City next? Will it sprout into a utopia or fall into oblivion? Here's my conversation with Zineb Riboua. I hope you enjoy!

A petition calling for a stronger dog control law has put the spotlight back on Northland's, and the nation's, problem with roaming dogs. Dog attack victims say they're too scared to walk to their dairy and even a Northland dog advocate says the problem is completely out of hand and will only get worse as economic hardship deepens. The Mayor of the Far North says the problem is massive. There are only about 8,000 dogs registered on record but Moko Tepania says the true number of dogs in Northland could be as high as 20,000 to 30,000. Peter de Graaf reports.
