Zohran Mamdani's Past Comes Out - Victor Davis Hanson

No surprise, have you noticed anyone of reasonable true good character has left the Democrat Party LONG ago?

As New York City's Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani gains momentum, a troubling record is beginning to emerge - one that raises serious questions about his judgment, ideology, and honesty.

With no record of holding a real job outside activism, music, and campaigning, Mamdani has built his political identity on class warfare, racial rhetoric, and far-Left ideology. Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the latest on Mamdani in today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“ Barack Obama, when he was president, ordered a predator hit team on and killed [Anwar] al-Awlaki in a targeted assassination….Now we learned in 2015, years after that Obama hit on this ISIS figure, Mamdani was defending him and saying he turned radical because the FBI surveilled him.

“He has some other disturbing things, as well. He posted a video on his social media of Indian Americans dressed as if they were Hasidic Jews. And they were making fun of the Hanukkah celebration. And they had a menorah there. And they were chanting, as if they were rapping. It was very derogatory toward Jews. Yet, why would he put that on his social media account?”
