New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani defends a new tax on second homes worth more than $5 million as President Donald Trump warns socialist policies threaten America’s future.
NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani sent letters to wealthy property owners, announcing a new pied-à-terre tax aimed at funding public services like parks and schools.
