05.01.2025 โ‡ข Manhattan's Nine Dollar Gates
โŒจNew York City implemented its historic congestion pricing scheme, charging vehicles $9 to enter Manhattan below 60th Street. Early concerns from FDNY unions about response times gave way to reports of smooth implementation. The program's launch dominated morning coverage alongside winter storm warnings.

The FBI revealed new details about the New Orleans ISIS attack, confirming the suspect made two reconnaissance trips and recorded the area using Meta smart glasses before his failed bombing attempt. This technological element adds context to the previous days' investigation of his radicalization process.

Evening coverage shifted to electoral matters as Speaker Johnson emphasized the urgency of certifying Trump's victory despite the approaching storm. Bezos's relationship with Trump drew attention after reports of a commissioned Melania documentary and the resignation of a Washington Post cartoonist over a rejected Bezos sketch.

Weather forecasts intensified, warning of the heaviest snowfall in a decade across multiple states.
