President Donald Trump has issued a warning that New York City&#8217;s federal funding could be in jeopardy if Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani doesn&#8217;t do the &#8220;right thing&#8221; if he wins the mayoral election.
What Happened: Trump expressed that Mamdani must &#8220;do the right thing&#8221; if elected, or the city could face a reduction in its federal funding. The President made these comments during a Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6375019938112">interview </a>with Maria Bartiromo that aired on Sunday.
"Let's say this, if he does get in, I'm going to be president and he's going to have to do the right thing, or they're not getting any money&#8230;He's got to do the right thing," stated Trump.
Trump warned that any future mayor of New York must &#8220;behave themselves,&#8221; or else the federal government will impose severe financial consequences.
He has previously threatened to cut federal funding for local politicians in blue states with whom he disagrees. For instance, he threatened to withdraw funding from California due to Governor&nbsp;Gavin Newsom&#8216;s policies on transgender athletes in women&#8217;s sports.
Trump&#8217;s warning is not only directed at Mamdani, who recently defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the city&#8217;s Democratic mayoral primary, but also extends to all mayoral candidates in New York City.
Trump has repeatedly labeled Mamdani, a Democratic socialist, as a communist. Mamdani, however, has rejected this label.

Why It Matters: Mamdani&#8217;s victory in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor has sparked strong political reactions. Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46107353/trump-says-democrats-have-crossed-the-line-with-zohran-mamdani-bernie-sanders-elizabeth-warren-back-new-york-mayoral-candidates-grassroots-suppo">condemned </a>the win as a sign that the Democratic Party has veered too far left.
Despite the criticism, prominent senators such as Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) have thrown their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46107353/trump-says-democrats-have-crossed-the-line-with-zohran-mamdani-bernie-sanders-elizabeth-warren-back-new-york-mayoral-candidates-grassroots-suppo">support </a>behind Mamdani, citing his &#8220;grassroots&#8221; approach.
Meanwhile, Cameron Winklevoss, co-founder of cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, has expressed reluctance to support a candidate against Mamdani in the New York City mayoral race, suggesting that the city must &#8220;learn the hard way&#8221; the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46108180/no-point-fighting-against-the-tide-by-opposing-zohran-mamdani-says-gemini-co-founder-cameron-winklevoss-things-will-have-to-get-worse-in-nyc-before-they-get-better">consequences </a>of Marxist and socialist ideologies.

Trump Threatens To Cut Federal Funding For NYC If Zohran Mamdani Doesn't Do The 'Right Thing' As Future Mayor: 'If He Does Get In, I'm Going To Be President...'

Tesla researcher Troy Teslike has highlighted Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) struggle to adapt to lower sales in Canada, predicting GAAP losses for the company starting in Q1 2026.
What Happened: In a post on X on Sunday, Teslike pointed out that Tesla is grappling with a significant drop in sales in Canada, largely due to political controversy.
He cited that sales have nearly hit rock bottom, while the company continues to operate 35 stores across the country, thereby keeping SG&amp;A (Selling, General, and Administrative) costs high.

This was a two-year low for the company, amid incentive cuts and criticism around Elon Musk's political ties with the Donald Trump administration.
Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s sales decline in Canada comes at a time when its competitor, General Motors Co.

Tesla&#8217;s sales woes have been attributed to an 87% decline in deliveries in Quebec, as per data obtained by Le Devoir.
Furthermore, Tesla has been<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44213295/tesla-suspected-of-ev-rebate-manipulation-in-canada-amid-sudden-sales-surge-tesla-gamed-the-system-says-industry-body"> suspected of exploiting Canada&#8217;s EV rebate</a> program, with four of its stores allegedly selling an average of 30 cars per hour over three days, thereby claiming over 50% of the rebate funds.

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya says Jeff Bezos reached out for a last-minute splash of premium spirits, prompting him to "send my plane with a case of our tequila to Venice as a wedding present," he wrote on X Sunday.
What Happened: Palihapitiya and his "All-In" podcast co-hosts unveiled their ultra-premium tequila in Los Angeles on June 21, pricing each of the 750 poker-chip-shaped bottles at about $1,200, according to a TechCrunch <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/06/24/the-all-in-podcasts-1200-tequila-has-already-sold-out/">report</a>. The entire run sold out in hours. The Social Capital founder has since peppered social media with photos of celebrity fans and hinted at broader distribution plans.

"Celebrity drinkers of our tequila" inspired Sunday's post, Palihapitiya wrote, adding that the Amazon founder's request arrived via text and that he obliged by dispatching his jet. Neither side disclosed how many bottles flew, but aviation-tracking data show dozens of private jets shuttling VIPs into Venice last week.

The S&amp;P 500 hit record highs on Friday as prominent investment manager Dan Niles advised investors to temporarily ignore traditional valuation metrics while positioning for continued market gains through the second-quarter earnings season.
What Happened: Niles, founder of Niles Investment Management, reversed his earlier bearish stance after the index rallied 27% from April lows following President Donald Trump&#8216;s 90-day tariff reprieve announcement. The benchmark index surpassed its previous February closing high, rebounding from a 21% selloff that began in early April amid tariff fears and recession concerns.
&#8220;In my 35 years on Wall Street I have NEVER said that before,&#8221; Niles wrote on X, clarifying his CNBC interview comments about forgetting valuations. He emphasized that this tactical approach reflects how he believes investors will behave until Thanksgiving, not his personal investment philosophy.
The veteran money manager cited seven factors driving continued market strength: U.S. dollar weakness helping foreign sales that comprise 40% of S&amp;P 500 revenues, demand pull-forward ahead of potential tariffs, reduced geopolitical tensions, anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts, institutional performance chasing, and retail fear-of-missing-out with $7 trillion parked in money market funds.

Why It Matters: Niles maintains positions in Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), and Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>). He highlighted Microsoft&#8217;s re-accelerating Azure growth after three quarterly disappointments and Nvidia&#8217;s demand strength following a $5.5 billion writeoff. Cisco trades at 17x forward earnings versus 24x for the S&amp;P 500, despite its emerging AI networking capabilities.
However, Niles warned of potential 10-20% correction risks approaching Thanksgiving due to holiday demand disappointment from the first-half demand pull-forward. He noted the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 24x forward price to earnings ratio exceeds historical averages during 2.4-3.0% inflation periods.
The index closed Friday at 6,190, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46124290/sp-500-hits-record-highs-and-history-says-the-best-is-yet-to-come">technical analysts noting</a> an approaching &#8220;golden cross&#8221; signal when the 50-day moving average crosses above the 200-day average—historically preceding strong rallies 73% of the time since World War II.

As S&P 500 Charges Off April Lows, Dan Niles Says Investors Will 'Forget About Valuations'—Holds Microsoft, Nvidia, Cisco But Sees Holiday Demand Crash Risk

Over the weekend, Yun-Ta Tsai, a former Nokia Telecommunications (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) researcher and current Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) senior staff engineer, shared his perspective on Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45851232/apples-lack-of-new-ai-features-at-wwdc-is-startling-expert-says">slow adoption of artificial intelligence</a> (AI) and autonomous vehicles.
What Happened: Tsai took to X, formerly Twitter, and recalled his time at Nokia, where engineers debated the transition from physical keyboards to touchscreens.
While U.S. engineers pushed for touchscreens to lead the way, he said, Finnish engineers were hesitant, believing the transition was too risky. Tsai noted the same "legacy crutches" that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41307048/elon-musks-spacex-was-once-called-a-dream-seller-by-this-potent-rival-now-pierre-ferragu-warns-compa">held Nokia back</a> are now plaguing Apple.
Pierre Ferragu, an analyst with New Street Research, corroborated Tsai's sentiments, recalling a conversation in 2007 when Nokia's CTO dismissed touchscreens.

"The problem of Apple is that they have every pieces they need to be dominant," but the tech giant doesn't feel the urgency, Tsai said.
He referenced Apple's attitude toward Full-Self Driving (FSD), where the company's machine learning manager dismissed the technology's potential. "They believed their models were superior and they were taking their time," Tsai noted.

Why It's Important: Apple's ambitious plan to transform the auto industry came to a sudden halt after ten years of development and billions in spending. The secretive effort — dubbed "Titan" inside the company — faced constant challenges, from leadership uncertainty to technical obstacles and evolving goals, before being <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37528093/apple-poured-1b-a-year-into-car-project-concocted-by-steve-jobs-for-a-decade-before-realizing-it-nee">officially scrapped</a> in February 2024.

Nokia Signs €1.5B Revolving Credit Facility With Margin Tied To Climate Targets

Iran&#8217;s Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi said that the United States must guarantee no additional military strikes before Tehran will resume nuclear negotiations, as markets rally on ceasefire prospects between Israel and Iran.
What Happened: Takht-Ravanchi&nbsp;told the BBC that the Trump administration has communicated through mediators its desire to return to diplomatic talks but has &#8220;not made their position clear&#8221; on preventing further attacks during negotiations. 
The stance comes after U.S. B-2 stealth bombers from Northrop Grumman Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>) struck <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46094069/iran-breaks-silence-says-nuclear-facilities-badly-damaged-by-us-strikes">three Iranian nuclear facilities</a> at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan last weekend.
&#8220;Right now we are seeking an answer to this question: Are we going to see a repetition of an act of aggression while we are engaging in dialogue?&#8221; Takht-Ravanchi said in an interview from Tehran.
The strikes followed a 12-day Israel-Iran conflict that began June 13 when Israel targeted Iranian nuclear and military sites, claiming Tehran was close to building nuclear weapons. Iran responded with missile attacks before the U.S. intervened directly.
Central Intelligence Agency Director John Ratcliffe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46107752/trump-announces-iran-nuclear-talks-following-us-strikes-that-severely-damaged-iranian-nuclear-program">confirmed the strikes</a> &#8220;severely damaged&#8221; Iran&#8217;s nuclear program, citing &#8220;credible evidence&#8221; that key facilities were destroyed. However, Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said Iran could restart uranium enrichment within &#8220;a matter of months.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Markets responded positively to ceasefire prospects. Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives called the Iran-Israel ceasefire &#8220;the most bullish outcome&#8221; for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46107752/trump-announces-iran-nuclear-talks-following-us-strikes-that-severely-damaged-iranian-nuclear-program">Wall Street, predicting 2-3% gains</a>. 
Iran&#8217;s parliament moved on Wednesday to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46160509/irans-top-diplomat-to-un-says-uranium-enrichment-to-continue-an-inalienable-right">suspend cooperation with the IAEA</a>, accusing the atomic watchdog of siding with Israel and the U.S. Iranian Ambassador to the UN Amir-Saeid Iravani separately told CBS that uranium enrichment will &#8220;never stop,&#8221; citing it as an &#8220;inalienable right&#8221; under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Trump announced nuclear talks with Iran for next week but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46107752/trump-announces-iran-nuclear-talks-following-us-strikes-that-severely-damaged-iranian-nuclear-program">provided no venue details</a>. He dismissed intelligence assessments suggesting the strikes only delayed Iran&#8217;s program by months, calling the damage &#8220;obliteration.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Metaplanet's aggressive Bitcoin-buying blitz has taken the cryptocurrency world by storm. Just earlier this month, it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45957733/metaplanet-surpasses-coinbase-in-bitcoin-holdings-with-117-million-purchase-japans-crypto-giant-now-targets-1-of-btc-supply-by-2027">overtook</a> cryptocurrency behemoth Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) in BTC holdings.&nbsp;
The frantic pace of purchases in the last year could be gauged by the fact that just about a year ago, it had only 141 BTC in its reserves. The company revised its ambitious target to hold over 210,000 BTC by end-2027.
Metaplanet executives have publicly acknowledged Saylor and his Bitcoin holding company as their inspiration.

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) said Sunday he will not run again in 2026, a decision that landed less than 24 hours after he crossed President Donald Trump on a marquee tax-and-immigration bill and drew an instant primary threat.
What Happened: Serving in the U.S. Senate has been a &#8220;blessing,&#8221; the two-term lawmaker, 64, wrote, recalling a rise from making minimum wage and living at a trailer park to Capitol Hill? Tillis and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) were the only Republicans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46159430/trumps-major-bill-advances-in-senate-amid-late-night-vote-salt-provision-compromise-stirs-controversy">oppose opening debate</a> on Trump's $4 trillion "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," prompting Trump to vow on Truth Social to meet with &#8220;numerous people" eager to oust Tillis in a GOP primary. "Tillis is a talker and complainer, NOT A DOER," Trump wrote.
The President later hailed Tillis's exit as "Great News!" to supporters online.
See also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46160881/bernie-sanders-slams-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-as-a-gift-for-billionaires-the-most-dangerous-piece-of-legislation-in-modern-history">Bernie Sanders Slams Trump&#8217;s &#8216;Big, Beautiful Bill&#8217; As A Gift For Billionaires: &#8216;The Most Dangerous Piece of Legislation In Modern History&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s social media outcry initially arrived hours after Tillis declared in a statement that he "cannot support" the president's spending bill in its current form. Tillis warned that the bill's anticipated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45344596/house-republicans-push-880-billion-medicaid-cuts-to-renew-trump-tax-breaks-democrat-warns-millions-will-lose-their-health-care">Medicaid cuts</a> would strip North Carolina, including its hospitals and rural communities, of tens of billions of dollars in funding.
The surprise retirement instantly scrambles the 2026 map in a battleground state Trump won narrowly twice. According to a Politico <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/29/thom-tillis-retires-00432045">report</a>, Democrats have courted former governor Roy Cooper, while Republicans eye Trump&#8217;s daughter-in-law and ally Lara Trump. Tillis's exit also highlights the peril for GOP moderates who buck Trump. The party previously censured Tillis for backing gun-safety and same-sex marriage deals.
Meanwhile, the Senate will resume work this week on amendments to the bill that spurred Tillis's break with Trump; passage would return the measure to the House before Independence Day.
