SINGLE SOURCE

Claim 4: “their daylong tour of Manhattan that includes paying their respects at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum with Mayor Zohran Mamdani and stopping by the New York Public Library”
DISPUTED
While web search results confirm the visit to the 9/11 Memorial, the claim states they are with 'Mayor Zohran Mamdani'. However, the Wikipedia entry for 'List of mayors of New York City' identifies Zohran Mamdani as the current mayor, but other evidence (CNN) mentions they were accompanied by 'former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg'. The presence of Mamdani as the accompanying mayor is contradicted by the CNN report of Bloomberg's presence, though the Wikipedia entry for mayors supports Mamdani's current office.
