Someone Groped the President of Mexico - Summary of the Internet – November 6, 2025
Zohran Mamdani just became NYC’s mayor at 34, and somehow that’s not the wildest part of today’s trends.
Hi ! Politics just went full TikTok. A democratic socialist unseated Andrew Cuomo, a typhoon drowned 117 people, and Mexico’s president was groped in public—and flipped the moment into a movement. Today’s stories aren’t just shocking, they’re shifting what power looks like. Your content should too. |
✅ Top 3 Must-Post Trends
1. Zohran Mamdani Wins NYC Mayor Race: Democratic Socialist’s Victory Shocks the Establishment

Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist from Queens, just won the NYC mayoral race in a political upset for the ages. Backed by progressives and rejected by President Trump, Mamdani beat former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa by a landslide—surpassing 1 million votes, a feat unseen since 1969. He becomes NYC’s first Muslim and South Asian mayor.
This win wasn’t quiet. Trump threatened to cut federal funds. Cuomo tried to stage a comeback. The public said “nah.” Mamdani ran on policies like free transit, rent freezes, and universal childcare—ideas that seemed radical just a few years ago but now feel like a blueprint for post-capitalist governance.
His win is being dissected nationwide. Progressives are claiming it as a mandate. Centrists are panicking. Creators? You’ve got content gold: outrage, hope, and generational change all in one story.
Post Idea:
Instagram Carousel: “NYC Just Elected a Socialist Mayor—Here’s What That Means” (Include rent freeze, public grocery stores, free transit)
TikTok Poll: “Will Mamdani change NYC forever—or will politics swallow him?”

2. Typhoon Kalmaegi Devastates Philippines: 117+ Dead, Millions Displaced

Typhoon Kalmaegi hit the Philippines on November 4 like a sledgehammer—eight landfalls, 117 dead, 127 missing, and almost 2 million displaced. In Cebu alone, 70 people died. The storm struck just weeks after a major earthquake, compounding the crisis. Entire communities are underwater, electricity is out, and schools and roads are destroyed.
Now it’s heading toward Vietnam as a Category 4 monster, expected to land late tonight. Filipino president Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has declared a national state of calamity. The country is scrambling to recover as another wave approaches.
This isn’t just another disaster story. It’s an urgent call about climate reality. The footage is heartbreaking. The implications are global.

3. Mexico’s President Groped in Public, Presses Charges, Calls for National Reform

President Claudia Sheinbaum was groped in broad daylight while greeting supporters—and instead of downplaying it, she pressed charges on camera. The footage went viral. Her response? “If it happens to the president, what does that mean for every woman?” She’s now pushing for sexual harassment to be criminalized across all 32 Mexican states.
This incident has exploded into a national reckoning on women’s safety. Feminist groups are rallying. Legislators are scrambling. The public is outraged—and watching closely.
