Mamdani's First Executive Order As Mayor

Two brief entries, in reverse chronological orders, from the New York Times' live coverage of Zohran Mamdani's inaugural day as mayor. The topmost, by Emma Fitzsimmons, reads: 'Mamdani, explaining why he decided to revoke executive orders issued since Adams’s indictment in September 2024, says: “That was a date that marked a moment when many New Yorkers decided politics held nothing for them.” ' This is followed by a portrait of Eric Adams. Then, below that (therefore temporally preceding) is a post by Emma Fitzsimmons of the Times, which reads: 'Mamdani announced two other executive orders in a press release: the first revokes prior executive orders issued after former Mayor Eric Adams’s indictment in September 2024 and reissues orders that Mamdani supports; the second sets the structure of his administration, including five deputy mayors.'
