Mamdani’s Marxist agenda EXPOSED — will this SINK his campaign?



Socialist Zohran Mamdani is favored by leftists everywhere to win the coveted position of New York City mayor, despite his belief system being what could take the city from great to a dystopian hellscape.

In a resurfaced interview from 2020, Mamdani lays out his goals, which BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere is well aware would do just that.

“What the purpose is about this entire project, it’s not simply to raise class consciousness, but to win socialism. And obviously, raising class consciousness is a critical part of that. But making sure that we have candidates that both understand that and are willing to put that forward at every which moment that they have, at every which opportunity that they are given,” Mamdani said in an interview in 2020.

“We have to continue to elect more socialists, and we have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialism,” he continued. “There are also other issues that we firmly believe in, whether it’s BDS, or whether it’s the end goal of seizing the means of production, where we do not have the same level of support at this very moment.”


“It is critical that in the way that we organize, the way that we set up work and our priorities, that we do not leave any one issue for the other, that we do not meet a moment and only look at what people are ready for but that we are doing both of these things in tandem,” he added.

Burguiere is appalled.

“If you could go into a lab and create a clip that should sink a candidate at any level in the United States, that might be it,” Burguiere says on “Stu Does America.”

“‘We need to elect more socialists,’” he mocks. “‘Seizing the means of production,’ which obviously, you could theoretically try to reword to make it a little bit more friendly rather than using the actual Marxian phrasing, but whatever. He doesn’t care.”

“So he’s using the Marxist phrasing throughout, and then he basically says, ‘We’re going to keep doing it even when we don’t tell people about it,’” he continues, adding, “I suppose it’s shocking that the United States, anywhere in the United States, would even consider a man who said this.”

Mamdani Is A Warning On Where The Next Generation Of The Left Is Heading

And if Americans don’t wake up, Mamdani’s brand of radical leftism could well be the future of this exceptional republic.

Critical Piece Of Socialist Rising Star’s Platform Exposed As Total Bogus

Don’t discount the depth of Mamdani’s radicalism

Voters loved the socialist slogans. Now comes the fine print.



Zohran Mamdani’s surprise victory over Andrew Cuomo in last week’s New York City Democratic mayoral primary catapulted a full-bodied Democratic Socialist program onto the national marquee. In his midnight speech, he claimed, “A life of dignity should not be reserved for a fortunate few.” His win marks Gotham’s sharpest left turn in a generation — and that’s saying something.

The recipients of his promise are slated to receive an economic makeover that treats prices as political failures. His platform freezes rents on more than 1 million apartments, builds 200,000 publicly financed “social housing” units, rolls out city-owned grocery stores, makes buses fare-free, and lifts the minimum wage to $30 by 2030, all bankrolled by roughly $10 billion in new corporate and millionaire taxes.

If Mamdani’s program collapses under its own weight, the case for limited government will write itself in boarded-up windows and outbound moving vans.

A week later, reality is beginning to set in.

Mamdani means what he says. On his watch, public safety would become a piggy bank. During the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, Mamdani posted, “No, we want to defund the police.” He wasn’t being metaphorical. His current blueprint would shift billions from the NYPD into a new “Department of Community Safety” — even as felony assaults on seniors have doubled since 2019.

Mamdani’s program may feel aspirational to affluent progressives, yet to many New Yorkers it lands like an ultimatum.

Forty-two percent of renter households already spend more than 30% of their income on shelter; now they are told higher business taxes and a slimmer police presence are the price of utopia, which helps explain why tens of thousands of households making between $32,000 and $65,000 — the city’s economic backbone — have left for other states in just the past few years.

Picture a deli cashier in the Bronx. She’s not reading City Hall memos, but she feels the squeeze when rent rises and her boss mutters about new taxes. She doesn’t frame her frustration as a debate about “big government” — but she knows when it’s harder to get by and when it’s less safe walking home. The politics of the city aren’t abstract to her. They’re personal.

Adding insult to injury, the job Mamdani wants comes with a salary of roughly $258,750 a year — more than three times the median city household income — plus the chauffeurs, security details, and gilt-edged benefits package that accompany the office. Telling overtaxed commuters that their groceries will now be “public options” while banking a quarter-million dollars in guaranteed pay is the policy equivalent of riding past them in a limousine and rolling down the window just long enough to raise their rent.

Layer onto that record a set of statements many Jewish New Yorkers regard as outright hostility. Mamdani is one of the loudest champions of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement; last year he pushed a bill to bar certain New York charities from sending money to Israeli causes and defended the chant “globalize the intifada,” drawing sharp rebukes from city rabbis. The day after Hamas massacred 1,200 Israelis on October 7, 2023, he blamed the bloodshed on “apartheid” and “occupation.”

All this lands in a metropolis with the world’s largest Jewish community outside Israel — about 1.4 million residents — whose synagogues, schools, and small businesses have weathered a steady rise in hate crimes. For them, a would-be mayor who treats Israel as a pariah and shrugs at chants of intifada isn’t dabbling in foreign policy; he’s telegraphing contempt for their safety and identity at home.

Republicans see an inadvertent gift. Mamdani’s New York will soon be measured against the lower-tax, police-friendly model many red states — especially my home, Florida — have advertised for years.

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis’ Law Enforcement Recruitment Bonus Program has mailed more than 7,800 after-tax checks of $5,000 to officers relocating from 49 states, including hundreds from New York precincts, while Florida touts a 50-year low in index-crime reports and unemployment below the national average. IRS data shows Florida netted 33,019 New York households in the latest year, with average adjusted gross income near $185,000.

Project those trend lines a few years and Mamdani’s New York grows grim: a shrunken police force responding to more 911 calls; fare-free buses draining MTA dollars and stranding riders; municipal groceries undercutting bodegas until subsidies vanish; office-tower vacancies sapping property tax receipts just as social housing bills come due. The skyline still gleams, but plywood fronts and “For Lease” placards scar street level. Meanwhile states that fund cops, respect paychecks, and let entrepreneurs stock the shelves siphon away residents and revenue.

Republicans running in 2026 scarcely need to draft the attack ads, yet they must pair fiscal sobriety with moral urgency — protecting the vulnerable, rewarding work, and defending faith. Mamdani’s primary victory shows romantic egalitarianism still electrifies young voters; statistics alone won’t counter a pledge of universal child care and rent freezes. This indeed won’t be a case of “promises made, promises kept.”

If his program collapses under its own weight, the case for limited government will write itself in boarded-up windows and outbound moving vans.

Should the city somehow thrive — safer streets, balanced books, real wage gains — progressives will demand that Congress replicate Mamdani’s policies nationwide. That is federalism at its most honest: two competing philosophies running side by side under the same national sky, with citizens free to relocate from one laboratory to the other.

For now, the lab results favor the model that backs the blue, protects the paycheck, and keeps the ladder of opportunity in good repair. Voters — and U-Hauls — are already keeping score. By decade’s end, the scoreboard will show which vision truly loved New York’s working families and which merely loved the sound of its own ideals.

'Absolute Panic and Fear': Democrats Torn Over Backing 'Toxic' Zohran Mamdani or Risking Primary Challenges

Top Democrats are reportedly in "absolute panic and fear" after Zohran Mamdani's upset win in the New York City mayoral primary, torn between endorsing a candidate many privately call "toxic" and risking primary challenges from his energized socialist base if they stay silent.

The fall of Andrew Cuomo: NYC chooses mass destruction over the same old corruption



Andrew Cuomo has suffered a humiliating loss against Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani in a New York City mayoral primary upset — and considering Mamdani’s past actions and present beliefs, it is about as humiliating as it gets.

Not only did Mamdani explain that he plans to open government-run grocery stores in the city to combat inflation, but he also was called out for changing his accents based on his audience in a recent interview.

“On the subject of trust, you’ve adopted different speaking accents in different scenarios. Is there one that’s real and one that’s affected?” a reporter asked Mamdani on NBC.

“I would say, as any immigrant knows, having been born in Kampala, Uganda, and then raised in South Africa and moving here when I’m 7 years old, is there are different parts of my life,” Mamdani responded, adding, “Here in New York City, this is how I speak.”


However, the stark difference between his New York City accent and his African rapper accent have many scratching their heads, as they sound like two different people.

Mamdani also rapped in a Disney movie directed by his mother, and when asked about his role, he said, “Nepotism and hard work goes a long way.”

“This guy is pathetic in every single way, and I will say that having a socialist run the financial center of the world, our biggest and most crucial city, when it comes to so many different things,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere says.

“But I can’t help but just enjoy the fact that we got to watch Andrew Cuomo fail, a horrible human being in every single way,” he continues. “He didn’t just lose an election; he lost to a 33-year-old zilch. A person who no one knew who they were two weeks ago, a giant nobody with no accomplishments and no plans for the future other than to destroy it.”

“And people are like, ‘Yeah, I’d rather have him than Andrew Cuomo,’” he says. “It’s very possibly true that his super-great style of corruption and killing old people and, you know, a grope-athon of younger employees might actually still be better than what Mamdani’s going to do.”

While not all of the horrible things Cuomo did affected everyone, Burguiere points out that Mamdani’s plans will actually affect everyone.

“I’m all the way in Texas. This no longer hits me to my core, but at some point, I’m going to have to deal with the consequences of what happened in New York,” he says.

“But right now, I’m just going to enjoy it,” he adds.

ROOKE: GOP Given Perfect Opportunity To Gain Control Over Powerful Elites

'There has to be a checks and balances system'

Socialist President In America Not That Far Off If You Take Close Look At The Data

'And what does it mean for the country?'

Every terrifying thing you need to know about NYC’s intifada-embracing, communist mayoral threat, Zohran Mamdani



On September 11, 2001, nearly 2,500 Americans were killed when two planes hijacked by Muslim terrorists struck New York City’s Twin Towers. It’s been less than 24 years, and now that same city has elected Zohran Mamdani — a “communist,” “Muslim radical,” and “jihadist apologist” — as its Democratic mayoral candidate.

Mamdani is a 33-year-old Democratic socialist backed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). He openly supports the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement, refuses to condemn the phrase "globalize the intifada," and proposes rent freezes, city-owned grocery stores, a $30 minimum wage, and a Department of Community Safety to reduce reliance on police.

All it took was 24 years for NYC to go “completely insane,” says Glenn Beck.

  

Mamdani was endorsed and funded to the tune of $100,000 by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which has been accused by multiple U.S. government officials, including federal prosecutors and FBI agents as well as several conservative advocacy groups, as being a Hamas front group and a terrorist organization.

He also received campaign donations from multiple faculty members from Columbia University, where several pro-Palestinian protests, many involving violent incidents, have erupted since 2023. Some of these donors even signed a letter defending Hamas’ October 7, 2023, attacks.

In a 2024 Facebook post, Mamdani’s campaign political director, Julian Gerson, wrote that he was “looking forward to driving down Mangione Avenue a few decades from now.” The post was seen as expressing direct support for Luigi Mangione – the man charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

“Sounds like supporting killing people in the streets,” says Glenn.

On June 17, Mamdani appeared on “The Bulwark Podcast” hosted by Tim Miller and equated the phrase “globalize the intifada” to “a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights,” arguing that the word “intifada” means “struggle” or “uprising” in Arabic. He even suggested that the term was used by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Arabic to describe the Jewish Warsaw Ghetto Uprising against the Nazis — a sentiment the museum condemned as “outrageous and especially offensive to survivors.”

Glenn makes an excellent point: If “intifada” describes the Jewish uprising at Warsaw, “then [globalize the intifada] is not just a harmless kind of slogan about human rights; it is a call for violence on the streets,” as the Warsaw uprising was a bloody affair marked by fierce urban combat and executions.

Mamdani’s father, a current professor at Columbia University, has denied that terror and violence are an inherent part of Islam. His book, “Good Muslim, Bad Muslim: America, the Cold War, and the Roots of Terror,” argues that terrorism is a modern political phenomenon, not a product of Islamic culture, and is often rooted in historical encounters with Western power.

“I've read the Quran and much of the Hadith, and I'm pretty sure the violence is a part of that,” says Glenn, noting that the Americans supporting the pro-Palestine movement and people like Zohran Mamdani, condemning any opposition as “Islamophobia,” are ironically the first people who will be in the crosshairs if an Islamic takeover happens.

“The progressive left — the champions of feminism, LGBTQ rights, and secularism — they're going to stand with the people who want to kill them first,” he says.

But right now, that isn’t a concern for the left. They’re amped about Mamdani’s plans to “tax the rich” so he can provide “free buses” and “city-run grocery stores.”

“I'm old enough to remember those city-run grocery stores in Moscow. They were great; the shelves were empty, but that's just Moscow. I mean it worked out completely different in Venezuela where ... oh, no, it didn't. ... They were eating the zoo animals,” mocks Glenn. This is communist dogma at work, he says, and it’s responsible for the “deaths of 100 million people.”

“Get the hell out of New York City. This is about survival,” he warns.

The REAL reason Zohran Mamdani — Marxist, Muslim nutcase — won the NYC mayoral primary



Andrew Cuomo is from the New York ruling family of Democrats, and yet that wasn’t enough to stop socialist Zohran Mamdani from winning the Democratic primary for mayor in New York City.

“Zohran Mamdani won by a lot. It wasn’t even close,” BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler says on “The Liz Wheeler Show.”

"It’s not because he’s charismatic. It’s not because he gets the problems of New Yorkers. It’s not because he ran some phenomenal campaign. It’s none of that,” she explains.

“It’s because of the demographic of voters who voted for him,” she adds.

Of the registered voters in New York City, 65% of them are Democrat, while only 11% are Republican, and 21.1% are Independent. And of the 5.1 million registered voters in New York City, the average age is 49, which is the tail end of the Millennial generation.


Between 750,000 and 850,000 of those 5.1 million are Gen Z, which is between the ages of 18 and 29 years old. Between 1.6 and 1.8 million of the 5.1 million are between the ages of 30 and 49.

“That means that 2.5 million of New York City’s registered voters ... are what I call ‘indoctrinated kids,’” Wheeler explains. “If you look at the breakdown of who voted for Zohran Mamdani, you will find that it was white college-educated liberals who voted for Zohran Mamdani, versus the working class, who voted for Andrew Cuomo.”

“What happened is they exported the radical leftist ideology in which they were indoctrinated into the real world; they brought it with them. And so when I say ‘indoctrinated kids,’ I’m talking about the Millennial generation,” she continues.

“Now, when we’re talking about Gen Z, the problem has only been exacerbated. It is exponentially worse now on college campuses. It’s not just discrimination against conservatives. It’s not just, ‘Oh, you’re going to be a liberal by the time you leave.’ It is outright hatred of America,” she explains.

“It’s embracing socialism and Marxism and communism, rejecting God, rejecting family, rejecting natural law. Children who are sent to college now have a high likelihood of coming out of it revolutionary. And so when I use this phrase ‘indoctrinated kids,’” she adds, “they are voting for what they were taught is right.”
