Virulently anti-Israel/pro-Hamas ‘Jihad Squad’ member, Socialist Congresswoman, Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), rallies far Leftists and Muslims to back a more radical than radical Socialist MUSLIM candidate for NYC mayor, Zohran Mamdani, who wants to raise corporate taxes to pay for billions of dollars of freebies for welfare-dependent residents and illegals aliens – confident that the dramatic jump in tax costs won’t drive companies out of the city. Careful to avoid using the toxic phrase ‘Defund the police,’ Mamdani proposes shifting several duties away from the NYPD by creating a civilian agency he plans to call the ‘Department of Community Safety.’
NY Post Rashida Tlaib, far-left radical Muslim congresswoman (D-MI) issued the call to arms to hundreds of Democrats Socialists of America members as she drummed up support for Mamdani during a virtual “organizing call” late Monday.
Tlaib, who is known for her extreme rhetoric, claimed Mamdani, a state Assembly member from Queens, needed far-left allies to help prevent the Trump administration’s “fascist regime” from filtering down into City Hall.
“To all my comrades on the phone, I mean, online right now, I want you to know … we have to be united against what’s happening here in Washington, DC — the fascist regime,” the 48-year-old rattled off as she introduced Mamdani on the call. “A lot of it is trickling down at the local government right now,” she said.
“I know Zohran, myself, and so many others are not, you know, we’re not signing up for that. We know what is at stake. Our freedom and liberation is at stake, our freedom of speech is at stake, and so much more,” Tlaib added.
Roughly 270 people joined the Zoom call, though it wasn’t immediately clear how many of them were Big Apple voters. Many of the DSA members flooded the comments section of the Zoom call with expressions of Palestinian solidarity, including watermelon and rose emojis.
Tlaib, a member of the US House of Representatives’ far-left “Squad” alongside Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and others, is known for her disdain of her own party’s support for Israel.
As the only Palestinian Muslim in Congress, she has been openly supportive of Hamas during her time in office and has even been censured by colleagues for defending Hamas and calling for the destruction of the Jewish state.
During Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu‘s address to Congress last spring, Tlaib was widely ripped for brandishing a sign accusing the Israeli leader of being a “war criminal” and “guilty of genocide.” She also repeatedly berated then-President Joe Biden as an “enabler” over his handling of the Israel-Hamas war and even declined to endorse Kamala Harris as her party’s 2024 presidential pick.
Branded by some Republicans as the “poster child” for Trump Derangement Syndrome, Tlaib most recently held up real-time signs during President Trump’s joint session of Congress last month declaring him a “liar.”
Mamdani, for his part, staunchly defended Tlaib in the wake of her public backing, telling The Post on Tuesday that “New Yorkers deserve a mayor who will stand up to the Trump administration.” Tlaib’s support for the firebrand mayoral candidate comes as recent polling showed his support rising in a crowded Democratic mayoral primary.
Award-winning journalist, Michael Goodwin, says anti-Israel/pro-Hamas far- left Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s NYC mayoral campaign is a preposterous bid for a radical City Hall takeover.
NY Post On paper, the mayoral candidacy of Queens Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is preposterous. He is a 33-year-old Muslim and a harsh critic of Israel running to lead the city that has the world’s largest Jewish population. He accuses Israel of “committing a genocide” in Gaza and counts among his high-profile supporters and fundraisers two notorious antisemites, Linda Sarsour and Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
He is also an avowed socialist whose quest to lead the city that sits at the heart of American capitalism has been endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America. A Bernie Sanders acolyte, he believes free is the right price for passengers on city buses. He also wants to freeze rents in the city’s 1 million rent-stabilized apartments.
He promises to raise the city’s minimum wage to $30 an hour and make child care free while also raising the wages of child care workers. And to address the high cost of groceries, he would open a government-run grocery store in each of the five boroughs that, he claims, could offer lower prices than privately owned stores.
He would, of course, pay for all this government largesse by raising taxes on the “wealthy,” most of whom would be smart enough to flee before he gets the chance.
In a public safety plan he released Tuesday, he promised the new unit, which he would call the ‘Department of Community Safety’ “will fill the gaps of our programs and services … and prevent violence before it happens by taking a public health approach to safety.”
He went on to vow “that no New Yorker falls through the cracks of our social safety net.” If all that sounds familiar, his plan echoes the promises made by the most far-left mayor the city has had in modern times, Bill de Blasio, who spent a cool $1 billion to create something he called “ThriveNYC,” and put his wife in charge. The money was spent but nobody knows where it went, because it didn’t solve any problems.
Despite his “Kumbaya” prattle about an alternative to the NYPD, there is no longer a serious debate about whether there is any substitute for police. There isn’t. When cops are properly trained and led and allowed to do their jobs, crime falls and citizens are safer.
Mamdani was born in Uganda to Indian-born Muslim parents. His father, Mahmoud Mamdani, is a professor at Columbia University who has called for the elimination of the Jewish state. His opposition to Israel is so extreme that he was arrested at a pro-Palestinian rally outside US Senate. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s house in Brooklyn soon after the Hamas terrorist invasion of Oct. 7, 2023.
And that was before Israel sent large numbers of troops into Gaza.
He supported the “uncommitted” movement of Muslims in the presidential campaign that was trying to persuade President Joe Biden to drop support for Israel.
Later, he told CBS that Biden “won’t be able to defeat Trump if he continues to ignore millions of Americans who won’t stand for a genocide of Palestinians in Gaza being committed in our names & with our tax dollars.”
He also introduced a bill in Albany that would have allowed the state attorney general to dissolve any New York groups helping to fund Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Wisely, it went nowhere.
