What will Donald Trump’s return to the White House — and a possible Republican trifecta across the federal government — mean for New York City?
The answers will be complicated, uncertain and life-altering for many New Yorkers. Our city will feel the effects in ways both shared across the country — and unique to the five boroughs.
One thing, however, is clear: Trump has relentlessly attacked journalists and promised to use his power to defund nonprofits that he doesn’t like.
THE CITY could well be one of them.
THE CITY was founded five years ago to provide independent reporting on the issues that matter most to New Yorkers. The need for rigorous fact-finding that holds power to account will be ever more important in the next four years. And as a reader-supported newsroom, we’re only beholden to the truth and to you.
Our team is ready to cover threatened action against undocumented migrants and any cooperation between federal authorities and local law enforcement.
We will track potential impacts on transit and infrastructure projects, including congestion pricing and the consequences of likely climate policy reversals.
And we’ll listen to voices in NYC who have concerns about public safety, the economy and how to make ends meet.
Of course, we have a local election of our own in 2025, with Mayor Eric Adams under indictment, a host of candidates in the wings and the very real possibility of a Trump presidential pardon.
THE CITY will offer rigorous, helpful and fair reporting as all of this unfolds in our neighborhoods, and we will aggressively defend our right to bring it to you.
We will rely on your support, your feedback, and your solidarity more than we ever have to meet the challenge. |
