33-year-old Senate Assemblyman Zoran Mamdani pulled off a huge upset

and is now the favor to win the general election.

Check out what some former mayor said after his big win.

First, Mike Bloomberg said, I wish you the best, Mr. Mamdani.

Becoming mayor was the greatest honor of my life.

That's nice.

Next, Bill de Blasio said, we're all rooting for you.

There's nothing like being mayor of New York.

Then Rudy Giuliani said, yo, kids, can I borrow 20 bucks?

That was Jimmy Fallon's take on the mayor's race here in New York City.

Beautiful shot there of lower Manhattan, still dealing

with the aftershocks of that major shakeup here in Democratic politics and what it might mean

for the party nationwide. We're going to dig into that. Plus, Senate Republicans are still

debating the proposed Medicaid cuts in President Trump's domestic policy bill.

We'll break down the Republican infighting as Congress faces a self-imposed July 4th deadline to pass that legislation.

And we'll go through the biggest headlines out of the NATO summit as President Trump touts America's strike in Iran and shifts his

tone potentially on working with the alliance. Good morning and welcome to Morning Joe. It's Thursday,

June 26th. I'm Jonathan Lemire. Thanks for joining us alongside the host of the Restis Politics

podcast, the BBC's Caddy Kay. We're in for Joe Meikaika, and Willie, who will be back next week from his time off.

With us here this morning, we have President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations,

Richard Haas.

He is the author of the weekly newsletter, Home and Away, which is available on Substack.
