Trump says he's exploring federal intervention in New York City, claiming Mayor Zohran Mamdani is turning the city into a "hellhole."

In a statement, Trump said he's examining whether the federal government has legal authority to "avert this disaster" and prevent NYC from becoming "filthy" and crime-ridden.

The threat comes as Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist who won the mayoral race, begins implementing his progressive agenda. Trump hasn't specified what federal action he's considering or what legal basis he'd use.
