By the way, the Muslim takeover of Great Britain has already happened. London and all major British cities have MUSLIM mayors! There are now 3,000 mosques in Britain!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

(End of the American Dream<\/a>)\u2014A far left Muslim socialist that has only been a citizen of the United States for seven years is the Democratic nominee to be the mayor of the biggest city in the United States. \u00a0Let that sink in for a moment.\u00a0 Zohran Mamdani is a smooth talker, and he ran an excellent campaign. \u00a0But if this is what the future of America looks like, we are in enormous trouble. \u00a0He dreams of creating \u201ca socialist New York\u201d, and many analysts are suggesting that if he wins the general election in November it will open the door for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for president in 2028.<\/p>\n

Can you imagine that?<\/p>\n

At one time it was unimaginable that someone like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could be a legitimate contender for the presidency.<\/p>\n

Of course at one time it was unimaginable that someone like Zohran Mamdani could run for mayor of New York City and defeat a big name like Andrew Cuomo,\u00a0but that just happened<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

As elections go, Tuesday\u2019s party primary for mayor was a thunderbolt: New York voters turned away from a well-funded familiar face and famous name, former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, and in doing so made a generational and ideological break with the party\u2019s mainstream. They turned to a 33-year-old, three-term state assemblyman, Zohran Mamdani, who ran on an optimistic message that has eluded many national Democrats about affordability and the rising cost of living.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We live at a time when the Democratic Party has drifted very far to the left, and working class people came out to vote for Mamdani\u00a0in droves<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

Mamdani exceeded more than 60% of the vote in vast swathes of the city, building a multi-ethnic coalition across brownstone Brooklyn, working-class Queens and upper Manhattan.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe surge by Mamdani is something I\u2019ve never seen before in New York City politics,\u201d J.C. Polanco, a political analyst at the University of Mount Saint Vincent, said before the results were known. \u201cIt\u2019s been an incredible campaign that understood social media and marketing like no other.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But do those voters really understand who this guy is?<\/p>\n

I was stunned when I found out what he actually believes.<\/p>\n

The following are 14 things that everyone needs to know about Zohran Mamdani\u2026<\/p>\n

#1<\/strong>\u00a0He was born in Uganda and has only been a U.S. citizen\u00a0since 2018<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

Zohran Kwame Mamdani was born and raised in Kampala, Uganda, moving to New York City with his family at the age of 7. A graduate of the NYC Public School System, he attended the Bronx High School of Science and received a Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Africana Studies from Bowdoin College. A few years later in 2018, he became naturalized as an American citizen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#2<\/strong>\u00a0Mamdani was endorsed by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and she campaigned for him vigorously. \u00a0Once it was clear that he had won, AOC was\u00a0absolutely thrilled<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cYour dedication to an affordable, welcoming, and safe New York City where king families can have a shot has inspired people across the city,\u201d Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., who endorsed Mamdani, said in a post on X. \u201cBillionaires and lobbyists poured millions against you and our public finance system. And you won.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#3<\/strong>\u00a0He has publicly stated that he dreams of creating\u00a0\u201ca socialist New York\u201d<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

#4<\/strong>\u00a0President Trump is calling him a\u00a0\u201c100% communist lunatic\u201d<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

The president piled on a series of insults toward the Democratic nominee for the nation\u2019s largest city, calling him a \u201c100% communist lunatic\u201d who is backed by congressional Democrats. \u201cWe\u2019ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous,\u201d Trump said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#5<\/strong>\u00a0He wants to\u00a0dramatically raise taxes<\/a>\u00a0in order to pay for his progressive agenda\u2026<\/p>\n

During the 11-candidate campaign for mayor, Mamdani pushed for raising $10 billion in revenue by raising taxes on individuals and businesses to help pay for his ambitious goals, such as eliminating fares on city buses, freezing costs at all rent-stabilized apartments, and establishing city-owned grocery stores.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#6<\/strong>\u00a0Billionaire John Catsimatidis\u00a0is warning<\/a>\u00a0that he will have to close or sell all of his grocery stories in New York City if Mamdani\u2019s plan to create government-owned grocery stores comes to fruition\u2026<\/p>\n

New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani\u2019s plan to create a network of city-owned grocery stores to drive down food costs is facing pushback from the industry, with the head of a Manhattan-based grocery chain threatening to sell or close the business if Mamdani is elected.<\/p>\n

John Catsimatidis, the CEO of grocery chain Gristedes, found fault with Mamdani\u2019s plan, saying the business couldn\u2019t compete in the market if there are city-run supermarkets.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the city of New York is going socialist, I will definitely close, or sell, or move or franchise the Gristedes locations,\u201d Catsimatidis told FOX Business. He will also contemplate moving his corporate offices to New Jersey.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#7<\/strong>\u00a0He has publicly called for the police\u00a0to be defunded<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

#8<\/strong>\u00a0Before he became a U.S. citizen and entered the world of politics, he was\u00a0a rapper<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

In 2016, Mamdani\u2019s song, #1 Spice, produced under the name Young Cardamom with Mamdani\u2019s childhood friend Abdul Car Hussein, who performed as HAB, was featured in Disney\u2019s \u201cQueen of Katwe,\u201d directed by Mamdani\u2019s mother, Mira Nair.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#9<\/strong>\u00a0As a student, he co-founded the very first Students for Justice in Palestine chapter\u00a0at his college<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

Taking that lesson with him, he went on to co-found his college\u2019s first Students for Justice in Palestine chapter and later organize across the country with different progressive organizations seeking to win national elections as well as expand healthcare coverage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#10<\/strong>\u00a0His wife is also a pro-Palestinian activist, and she is originally\u00a0from Syria<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

\n
<\/center> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rama Duwaji stood beside her husband as the 33-year-old Muslim socialist led with 43 percent of the vote and \u2018made history\u2019, in his own words.<\/p>\n

It was only a few weeks ago that Mamdani hard-launched his wife, who he met on Hinge, sharing a carousel of their wedding pictures on Instagram.<\/p>\n

Until recently, the glamorous Syrian illustrator \u2013 who uses her art to support America\u2019s growing pro-Palestine movement \u2013 was largely absent from her husband\u2019s online mayoral campaign.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#11<\/strong>\u00a0Mamdani has been criticized for his defense of the phrase\u00a0\u201cglobalize the intifada\u201d<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

An activist for Palestinian causes, Mamdani faced questions over his ability to lead the largest population of Jews outside of Israel. He has refused to say that he supports Israel\u2019s right to exist as a Jewish state, and the US Holocaust Memorial Museum issued a statement condemning Mamdani\u2019s defense of the use of the phrase \u201cglobalize the intifada,\u201d a reference to the armed Palestinian uprisings against Israel.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#12<\/strong>\u00a0During an interview, Mamdani admitted that he would\u00a0arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a>\u00a0if he visited New York City.<\/p>\n

#13<\/strong>\u00a0He is already being compared\u00a0to Barack Obama<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cIt really represents the excitement that I saw on the streets all throughout the City of New York,\u201d said Letitia James, the New York attorney general. \u201cI haven\u2019t seen this since Barack Obama ran for president of these United States.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

#14<\/strong>\u00a0If Mamdani wins the general election in November, he will be\u00a0the first Muslim mayor<\/a>\u00a0in the entire history of the Big Apple\u2026<\/p>\n

If elected this November, Mamdani, who was born in Uganda and is of Indian ancestry, would be the city\u2019s first Muslim and first Asian American mayor.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Okay, so let\u2019s assume for a moment that Mamdani actually wins the general election in November.<\/p>\n

If that happens, it will be a major milestone for the progressive movement in this country.<\/p>\n

Could it also make Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination for president in 2028?<\/p>\n

There has already been a lot of talk\u00a0that she might run<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

Speculation is swirling about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s plans for 2028 after she successfully endorsed dark-horse socialist Zohran Mamdani in the heated New York City Democratic mayoral primary.<\/p>\n

Many observers believe the lefty \u201cSquad\u201d member will try to move up from her House seat \u2014 whether to the Senate or even the White House \u2014 in the aftermath of Mamdani\u2019s stunning upset over ex-New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just continues to open more doors,\u201d Corbin Trent, Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s former spokesperson and author of America\u2019s Undoing Substack, told The Post. \u201cIt just broadens her horizons.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even though the U.S. has been moving to the left for decades, I still don\u2019t think that this country is ready for a socialist in the White House.<\/p>\n

But I could be wrong.<\/p>\n

Very few of the experts thought that Mamdani had a chance to win.<\/p>\n

Now it is likely that he will be the next mayor of New York City.<\/p>\n

We have allowed socialist ideology to be preached in our high schools, colleges and universities for a long time, and so we shouldn\u2019t be surprised that large numbers of our young people are now socialists.<\/p>\n

We are reaping what we have sown, and this is just the beginning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
