President Trump sharply criticized New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on two occasions on Tuesday, calling him a "communist" and threatening to arrest him should he follow through on promises to obstruct federal immigration enforcement.
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani declined to condemn the controversial slogan “globalize the intifada” during an appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday. The phrase, widely regarded as a call for violence against Jews, has sparked outrage among Jewish communities and across the political spectrum.
New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist and newly minted winner of the NYC Democratic mayoral primary, has proposed a $65 million taxpayer-funded plan to expand sex change drugs and surgeries across the city. His campaign platform details sweeping financial support for what he calls “gender-affirming care,” a term broadly encompassing irreversible procedures and hormone treatments for both minors and adults.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) publicly celebrated Democrat Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s win in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary, calling it an “incredible victory” and thanking voters for rejecting “bigots and corrupt billionaires.” Omar’s praise has reignited concerns over Mamdani’s far-left politics and close alignment with Democratic Socialists of America.
