I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.'

It’s been a strong year for deployment and innovation, but a worrying one for energy politics.
Moves like the US pause on offshore wind show how quickly progress can be undermined by polarised debate.
