It’s been one scandalous (and short) administration thus far for socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. He’s been busted fibbing about key aspects of his campaign. There’s been little movement on his biggest promises. And took heat for leaving too much snow on New York City streets for too long after a big storm last month.
Now his wife is causing him problems. Seems she reportedly liked several posts celebrating the Hamas October 7, 2023, attack on Israel that killed 1,200 people, including 46 Americans.
Hamas took 254 hostages. Twelve of those were Americans, as a reminder. Most hostages were summarily executed. During the initial attack, many Israelis were brutally murdered.
Mamdani’s wife, Rama Duwaji, reportedly liked this post. Jewish Insider first reported the news. When asked about the post, Mamdani didn’t want to discuss it.
Beyond lame. Beyond weak sauce. Beyond outrageous.
This is not something the can be swept under the rug — the sitting Mayor’s wife celebrated the murder of New Yorkers on October 7th.
It seems insanely obvious, at this point, that Democrats and the socialists who caucus with them and run under their party banner do not like Jewish people. What is equally insane is why Jewish Americans still vote for Democrats.
Will this new scandal hurt Mamdani? Probably not. Why? See the last sentence in the above paragraph.
