  1. Mayor Mamdani’s 1st EO nullifies every executive order issued by Eric Adams after he struck his corrupt bargain with Trump to secure dismissal of the indictment against him.

    It’s a good lesson why governing by fiat and EO can easily be wiped away on Day 1 by the next admin. To impart lasting change passing bills in congress is necessary.

  2. A true carbon copy of Trump, completely ignore the elected legislature and just rule by decree. At least so far it hasn’t been anything too destructive

  3. Just to be pedantic, I feel like the choice to use “multiple” instead of “two” makes a difference in how the reader interprets the headline

  4. The Mamdani EOs are a solid first step on a holiday where the halls of government are closed. If Mamdani is truly opposed to Adams’ misuse of the Executive Order, he should pursue an end to their use with the City Council and state legislature. Everything that government does, outside of urgently addressing an immediate and dangerous situation, must be based on well debated legislation. Where an actual emergency exists and an EO is warranted, there must be a short life imposed.

  5. Eric Adams just announced a 2 million dollar emergency fund to support trans/nonbinary New Yorkers.

    Does that first executive order stop that fund? I’m not sure if Adams’ announcement was an executive order or not.

  6. NYC’s mayor signing a suite of progressive orders on day one is gonna fell like a shock to anyone who’s used to slow motion municipal governments. it’s bang-bang-bang rather tap-tap-pause

  7. Love him or hate him, this is what an inaugural sprint looks like when your policy whishlist meets actual executive action. NYC just went from Welcome to the city to Everyone buckle up

  8. Wow. And Mayor Mamdani didn’t try to overturn any constitutional precedents or nothing in the TWO Executive Orders he signed. Two. Only 2. Donald Trump has signed 225 since January 20, 2025. I’ll bet that Mayor Mamdani didn’t need a staff member to read it to him to remind him what he was signing before he signed the 2 executive orders.

  10. This just in. Man doing job for which he was elected to do. More at 11.

  11. I have high hopes for him, but I am going to withhold judgement until he actually takes on the NYPD. Keeping them placated for the time being might be the right move strategically, but people need to hold him to reforming the organization sooner rather than later.

  12. Media title misleading- should consider a different position.

  14. > revoke all prior executive orders issued before Sept. 26, 2024, while reissuing prior executive orders Mamdani’s administration feels are “central to delivering continued service, excellence, and value-driven leadership.”

    This is factually incorrect. A failure at reading comprehension.

    The executive order keeps all EOs before Sept. 26. It revokes all EOs after Sept. 26.

  15. Multiple = 2

    Obvious misleading headline is misleading.

  17. None of them were unconstitutional power grabs? Pft! Does this guy even executive? /s

  18. Is the second executive order something every mayor of NYC has done? Seems like appointing people is a normal function of a mayor

  19. Tell me he did it with a sharpie. I will understand the average mindset of a Trump supporter a little more if he starts printing out EO’s with fat sharpies.

  20. My favorite is “a number of times”, makes people think it could be a brazillion times when zero is actually a number.

    Everyone on earth has done everything possible a number of times.

  21. does anyone care about what the executive orders are, or do you just care how many.
