The Rita Cosby Show: Hour 1 | 11-05-25

Rita explores the "catastrophic" election of Zohran Mamdani, the new New York City mayor-elect. The 34-year-old, self-professed Democratic socialist won the race after the anti-Mamdami vote was split between Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. Rita analyzes Mamdani's "vitriol" and direct challenge to President Trump, who warned the mayor-elect that the federal government "always trumps local" regarding funding. The episode details the serious concerns surrounding Mamdani's ties to the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), who are openly telegraphing demands to defund police, regulate land sales. There are also shocking reports of New Yorkers attempting to flee the city.
