The absolute worst of the worst
Zohran Mamdani ran for office promising New Yorkers free everything. And then he asked them to give him $4 million to fund his transition team. In a fundraising video, Mamdani claimed that he only had $1 million to keep paying his “incredible team” for the next 50 days.He also had to “vet the 50,000 resumes we’ve received” for that incredible team.
Now we know where those millions for Mamdani’s “incredible team” are actually going.
Mamdani has brought on 400 people to his transition team across 17 committees including a committee on community organizing, on worker justice, and on immigrant justice. Despite the claims that the Muslim socialist needed millions of dollars to go through tens of thousands of resumes, the ‘team’ is mostly drawn from his political allies in the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Islamists and other people who were already involved in his campaign.
The Mamdani transition team has a disproportionate number of Arabs and Muslims on it.
For example, the Committee on Arts and Culture includes 5 people from the Muslim world, the Committee on Community Organizing features 6 people from the Muslim world, the Committee on Community Safety has 3 , the Committee on Government Operations has 4, the Committee on Immigrant Justice has 8, the Committee on Legal Affairs has 6, and the Committee on Small Businesses has 4.
And the transition team includes some of the most extreme figures in New York City politics.
During his campaign, Zohran Mamdani had lied and claimed that, despite his past statements calling for the defunding of the police, he was no longer interested in police defunding.
But Mamdani’s ‘public safety’ committee will include Alex Vitale, the author of ‘The End of Policing’ who had called for eliminating the police, legalizing many crimes and using social services to deal with other offenses. Vitale had claimed that “police are violence workers”, described police as “the natural enemy of the working class” and urged that “if you don’t want racism and violence, don’t get the police involved.”
Unsurprisingly, for the transition team of a politician whose signature issue was validating Islamic violence and hatred against Jews through moral inversion, Mamdani’s transition team stands out for the sheer number of members who hate Jews.
That includes Hassaan Chaudhary, a fellow Indian Muslim who headed up Muslim outreach for Mamdani, who had praised Iranian dictator Ahmadinejad for his call to eliminate Israel, and used “Jew” as an insult. Also on the Mamdani transition team is ousted Women’s March leader Tamika Mallory, who had celebrated Farrakhan, and accused Jews of being behind slavery.
Mamdani’s legal committee includes Tahanie Aboushi, a BDS supporter, close friend of Linda Sarsour, and ‘Palestinian’ ‘civil rights’ lawyer whose father was sentenced to 22 years in prison. As Middle East Forum noted, she was involved in an organization that a Hamas front group tried to direct funds to.
Also on the legal committee is Baher Azmy of the Communist founded Center for Constitutional Rights who represented various ‘war on terror’ detainees and is one of the lawyers for Mahmoud Khalil, a foreign national who served as a key figure in the campus terrorist protests with a stated mission of “the total eradication of western civilization”.
Another member of the legal committee is Ramzi Kassem who had claimed that 9/11 was due to the “resentment these terrorists felt towards the United States” as a result of “our country’s policies” and that “the legacy of 9/11 ought to be recounted primarily through the stories of Muslims the world over who have largely paid the price of American power and prosperity.” --->READ MORE HERE
A bigwig on Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s transition team spewed hatred against Jews and Israel and questioned gay rights in a series of odious social media posts from a decade ago.
Hassaan Chaudhary, who identifies himself as newly appointed political director for Mamdani’s transition and inaugural committee on LinkedIn, used the word “Jew” as a slur, and even praised former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who infamously said Israel is “a cancer which will be eliminated soon.”
Chaudhary, who was the director of Muslim engagement for the Mamdani campaign, also described Israel as a “bloody country” and a “barbaric nation” in the posts — some of which date back to when he was 18 years old.
More recently, Chaudhary reshared a post on X in December 2024 aimed at pro-Israel Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a Democrat who is Jewish.
“If Luigi [Mangione] had shot a Gazan toddler instead, Josh Shapiro would have given him a medal,” the original post said.
Responding to Pakistani journalist Najam Sethi on February 9, 2012, Chaudhary said, “Hitler..why dont you face our Pakistani people? Your daughter works at WSJ [the Wall Street Journal].”
He then invokes an Urdu phrase, saying, “oh forgot that Jew hoga tera baap” — which loosely means “Jew will be your father.”
In another post, a thrilled Chaudhury also lauded Ahmadinejad and called him “fearless.”
“This banda [person] is fearless RT ‘@murtazasolangi President Ahmedinejad has declared Israel as cancer which will be eliminated very soon,'” Chaudhury wrote in an X post to Pakistani official Murtaza Solangi.
He spewed venom toward Israel in other posts.
“There is a barbaric nation who’s killing indigents and innocent Palestinians called ISRAEL. TALK about it. #stupid media,” Chaudhury said in a November 2012 post to a Pakistani journalist. --->READ MORE HERE
