Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

🔮 Lawler, the Republican incumbent seeking his third term, said the high-profile ICE shooting last week in the Big Apple could have been prevented if local law enforcement were able to cooperate with federal immigration officers.
🔮 Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul and her Republican challenger Bruce Blakeman faced off Tuesday night in the only debate of their hotly contested gubernatorial election campaign — trading barbs on affordability, immigration, President Trump, and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
🔮 Despite that alarming history, politicians including Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his leftists pals called on Belgal’s release and demanded the abolishment of ICE – with the likes of Styles taking up the call. “I just want us to take a moment to think about Oscar Belgal tonight,” Styles recently said at Madison Square Garden, where he’s in the midst of a residency tour.
🔮 None of that stopped Mayor Zohran Mamdani from referring to Belgal as “a New Yorker” in a raging tribute Thursday against US Immigration and Customs Enforcement — a label some Bronx locals took offense to.
🔮 She was listed as a sober monitor for a party her sorority was throwing at a downtown Ithaca bar that night — but started drinking after learning somebody else would be covering her duty.
🔮 Newell then reiterated that he had no memory of any of that happening, writing, “had I been less f**ked up and even somewhat aware of the situation and how out of hand it got, I would’ve shut it down the second guys started walking in the room.” But the local Tompkins County District Attorney’s Office declined to bring any charges against the brothers, citing a statement from Doe provided by campus police which they claimed never accused anyone of rape and also showed she willingly ingested the alcohol and drugs throughout the night.
🔮 Firebrand socialist streamer Hasan Piker backed the anti-Israel protestors who heckled Mayor Zohran Mamdani during an Oct. 7 vigil at a Manhattan park — prompting critics to chuckle that the left was “eating itself.”
🔮 “We need to safeguard the income of fishers and the catch so that we can continue to eat the foods that we have relied on for generations,” said Avannaata Mayor Lars Erik Gabrielsen.
🔮 Ottumwa Mayor Benjamin Foote then announced there would be 30 seconds of silence “to reflect on whatever it is we need to reflect on at this time” — and after city council members tried to move the meeting along, the mayor butted back and the silence continued.
🔮 “Would you like to see [redacted]’s brains infront of [redacted]?” read one message sent to Doe’s phone and containing specific names and addresses.

🔮 Lawler, the Republican incumbent seeking his third term, said the high-profile ICE shooting last week in the Big Apple could have been prevented if local law enforcement were able to cooperate with federal immigration officers.
🔮 Getting the Bruce juiced Blakeman could be seen rapidly blinking throughout the debate, something Glass chalked up to “anger” instead of nerves.
🔮 “If you want to stop illegal alien criminals from being released into your communities, you must elect Bruce Blakeman and a Republican Congress and we will ban sanctuary cities and sanctuary states at long last,” he promised.
🔮 She supports men in women’s sports and a bill that would change the terms of mother and father to gestating and non-gestating parents.”
🔮 We lack an attorney general who is willing to enforce the law.
🔮 Hochul, who’s facing a reelection challenge from Republican Bruce Blakeman, is walking a tightrope of running as a moderate Democrat while trying to harness her party’s left wing who are energized by the recent election of democratic socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
🔮 “If Blake won’t take care of his land, why would he take care of us?” an ominous voice said over drone footage shown to reporters of the alleged dumping ground.
🔮 The blockbuster figure puts Wall Streeters on track to rake in $90 billion by New Year’s Eve, the comptroller forecast — up nearly 40% from 2025’s total profits of $65.1 billion.
🔮 “Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, if you break the law, you will face the consequences.
🔮 Hochul, who is up for re-election next month, said she will “work with the New York State legislature” to change current state law, which shields predators who take advantage of a victim who has voluntarily consumed drugs or alcohol.
