Mayor Mamdani weighs in on midterms

And new in tonight, the blue wave is getting ready to crest in Washington tomorrow for orientation for the newly elected members. But that has everyone wondering now that they are getting ready to take office, what exactly happens next? Among those weighing in on Sunday shows is New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani. Fox 5's Frances Wang joins us live from the newsroom right now with what he had to say, as well as the Republican reaction. Good evening, Frances. Hey, good evening, Arthur. Well, the mayor's key point is that working class Americans are tired of struggling. Tomorrow, newly elected members of Congress will begin orientation in Washington. They're arriving after an election that saw Democrats make significant gains. But the question now is what those results mean for the direction of the Democratic Party and how Republicans plan to respond. New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani, who is also a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, weighing in on that balance in an exclusive interview with Fox News Sunday. He says the results send a clear message about what voters want. Mamdani also defended the DSA while acknowledging he doesn't agree with every position associated with the organization. Meanwhile, Republicans are offering a different interpretation of the election results as both parties prepare for a new Congress. With Democrats set to take control, Attorney General Todd Blanche pushing back against some lawmakers' calls to investigate Trump administration officials. Americans across this country are facing a cost-of-living crisis, and last night's results show us that Americans are tired of waiting. They are tired of being told that their needs are unrealistic by the very politicians who've been bought by the wealthiest people in the country. What we saw last night are candidates across the country, no matter how they describe themselves, running on policies that would transform working people's lives. You have an economy that is humming. You have an economy, we just had numbers come out this week with job numbers. Employment, there are more people working in this country than in its entire history, and yet you have incoming leaders doing nothing but talking about going after existing members, going after companies, and that's something that, as Attorney General, we cannot tolerate. And tomorrow's orientation will be one of the first opportunities for these newly elected lawmakers to come together in Washington. Beyond learning the ropes, they'll also be preparing for the political battles ahead, including how both parties plan to address affordability and the cost of living.
