As NY Gov Tries to Remove Adams, AG Who Went After Trump Helps Recruit New NYC Mayoral Candidate
New York Governor Kathy Hochul is considering removing Mayor Eric Adams from office amid corruption allegations and his cooperation with the Trump administration on immigration enforcement. This move could pave the way for former Governor Andrew Cuomo's potential return to politics, which many Democratic leaders fear.

Attorney General Letitia James is reportedly recruiting retiring City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams to run for mayor as a counter to Cuomo's possible candidacy. The situation raises concerns about the political maneuvering within New York's Democratic establishment and the implications for future elections.

Group of DEI workers sue to stop Trump executive orders
A coalition of DEI workers and civil rights organizations is suing to block President Trump's executive orders aimed at eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. They argue these orders violate constitutional rights and harm marginalized communities by promoting discrimination.

The lawsuits claim that Trump's actions chill free speech and undermine federally mandated programs. A federal judge has yet to rule on the request to pause the executive orders, while the White House maintains that the lawsuits reflect a leftist resistance to Trump's agenda.

‘Maybe we didn’t do enough’: Israelis line route of convoy carrying slain hostages
On February 20, 2025, Israelis gathered to honor four slain hostages—Shiri Bibas and her sons, Ariel and Kfir, along with Oded Lifshitz—whose bodies were returned by Hamas. The convoy carrying the coffins crossed into Israel, where mourners paid their respects along the route, holding flags and singing the national anthem.

A ceremony in Tel Aviv is planned to honor the fallen, emphasizing the urgent need for the return of the remaining hostages. Currently, 66 hostages are still held in Gaza, with six expected to be released soon. The tragic events stem from the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack that left 1,200 dead and many others abducted.
