Quick Summary

Carole Radziwill, a star from "The Real Housewives of New York City," spoke about her parking practices in an interview with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea.” Despite having accumulated $8,000 in parking tickets since 2020, including 17 for failing to follow alternate-side street cleaning rules, Radziwill claims she is a strict enforcer of parking laws. She defended her tactics, such as using expired FDNY placards and ConEd cones to avoid citations, by arguing that the cost of parking garages in SoHo ($800 per month) makes paying fines cheaper over time.

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.

🔮 “Real Housewives” star Carole Radziwill insisted Monday that she’s a hard-nosed parking enforcer in her SoHo neighborhood — even as she’s racked up thousands of dollars in tickets herself.
🔮 Blakeman, the Nassau County executive, also hammered Hochul for her infamous 2024 claim that “young black kids in the Bronx” don’t know what a computer is — insisting youngsters in the borough “know more about a computer” than the governor will “ever know.”
🔮 Democrat Cait Conley finally condemned Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s anti-Israel rhetoric — but only after Rep. Mike Lawler backed her into a corner for repeatedly dodging the question.
🔮 Mayor Zohran Mamdani plans to ask private New York City garage and parking lot owners to block ICE agents from using their property, The Post has learned.
🔮 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.

🔮 The “Summer House” star, 41, was asked during an exclusive interview with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” Thursday whether he and his former fiancée would ever rekindle their relationship.
🔮 “I made mistakes and I will take responsibility for my own actions.”
🔮 Glanville explained that she “started” her “Real Housewives” journey with Richards when she joined “RHOBH” in Season 2, recalling how Richards would let her drop her son off at her house to hang out with her youngest daughter, Portia Umansky, when she needed a babysitter.
🔮 “If I could change it for him, I would, but I can’t.
🔮 During Tuesday night’s episode of “The Real Housewives of New York City,” Taank shockingly asked Carole Radziwill if Carolyn — who died in a plane crash alongside her husband, John F. Kennedy Jr., in 1999 — was a “bitch.”
🔮 The two women, along with Sai De Silva, were the only cast members from the reboot asked back for Season 16, which features three new Real Housewives and the return of OG star Carole Radziwill.
