While Donald Trump tries to gaslight us into thinking his Trump-flation is not a problem, we non-billionaires know better. That includes New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

On Monday, Mamdani announced that the city-run grocery stores he plans to open will sell food staples at a 30% discount from “the typical retail price in New York City.” He told SiriusXM’s Lurie Daniel Favors, “It’s going to apply to all fresh produce, meat, seafood, along with around 20 other items like cheese, milk, bread, as well as pasta, soup, beans, nuts, rice, and flour.”

Mamdani promised during his campaign that he’d open city-run grocery stores. He has now announced locations for stores in two boroughs: the Bronx and Manhattan. On SiriusXM, he said he plans to open one in each of the other three boroughs by the end of 2029.

Mamdani said he expects New Yorkers will save $90 a month and about $1,000 per year.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing mounting criticism after four Jewish bar associations accused his administration of excluding Jewish representation from a newly appointed judicial advisory committee despite City Hall describing the panel as a “truly representative cross-section” of the city’s legal profession.

Backed by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the organizations are demanding that Mamdani revise the 19-member committee.

The panel plays a key role in screening and recommending candidates for judgeships across New York City’s Criminal, Family, and Civil Courts.

The controversy comes as concerns over antisemitism continue to grow across New York City.

An immigrant-led business alliance has voted to sue New York City to block Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s controversial $70 million taxpayer-funded municipal grocery store project, citing concerns over unfair competition.

Breitbart News reports that the Multicultural Business Coalition’s (MBC) board approved the lawsuit  to block five city-run supermarkets that would sell produce, meat, milk, cheese, and bread at a 30 percent discount.

The MBC plans to build a nonpartisan $1 million legal and lobbying war chest to challenge Mamdani’s initiative in the coming weeks.

The Marxist-Islamist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, has just released what appears to be a de facto proscription list for his foreign-paid street fighters to target. He released a list of property owners, including their names and addresses, who own another home outside the city.

While the information is public, the signal is clear; Attack these people. Mamdani ally and national Democrat Socialists of America co-chair Megan Romer made that clear when she said on Fox News “We will win by making conditions so intolerable to the ruling class that they would rather give in to our demands than live with the disturbance we cause.” Disturbance is a dog whistle for violence. Ruling Class is a dog whistle for white people.

Mamdani Doxxes NYC Property Owners, Quietly Expands Reach of New Tax legalinsurrection.com

New York City Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani is facing widespread criticism after his administration on Monday published a searchable database identifying wealthy property owners who may be subject to the city’s pied-à-terre tax. The administration says the database is intended to promote transparency. Critics, however, argue it effectively “doxxes” property owners by making them easier to identify and locate, unnecessarily exposing them to harassment, vandalism, and even potential acts of violence.

Mamdani is also drawing criticism for including properties valued between $1 million and $5 million in the database, despite repeatedly promoting the pied-à-terre tax as applying only to properties worth $5 million or more. As it turns out, that was part of the plan — which I’ll return to shortly.

The Department of Finance’s online database allows anyone to search properties and access the names and addresses of owners whose non-primary residences could be affected by the proposed tax.

A Department of Finance spokesperson told Fox News that state law required the publication of the property assessment roll: “As per State law, a property roll was released for public inspection. From this list, DOF will identify properties that may be subject to the new non-primary residence property surcharge.”

It’s true that property records have long been public. Even so, aggregating the city’s most expensive properties into a single, searchable database that anyone can access strikes me as dangerous. There’s no shortage of bad actors who could exploit such a list for nefarious purposes, from political targeting to criminal activity.

The New York Post editorial board called the database Mamdani’s “enemies of the people” list and asked why no one at City Hall stopped this “amateur-hour idiocy?”

Because the Democratic Socialist crew is obsessed with naming and shaming their “class enemies”: As national DSA co-chair Megan Romer explained on Fox News Sunday, “We will win by making conditions so intolerable to the ruling class that they would rather give in to our demands than live with the disturbance we cause.”

Republicans are lashing out at New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani after he announced the city had taken a significant step forward in securing millions in taxes owed by the city’s ultrawealthy residents.

Mamdani said on Thursday that notices had been sent out informing owners of second homes worth $5 million or more that the pied-à-terre tax put in place by the state’s Democrats is coming soon.

Under current law, the properties are undertaxed, and plans are to apply the money that will be raised to help address New York’s budget deficit.

“The best city in the world deserves the best parks, libraries, and schools in the world. That’s only possible when we all pay our fair share,” Mamdani wrote.

An April estimate from the New York City comptroller analyzed the tax and found that it could provide as much as $510 million annually if fully implemented.

As we approach the 25th anniversary of 9/11, a day that will live in infamy of some people doing something, New York families are demanding that the mayor of New York City not show up at the memorial. Seems odd, considering the city was ground zero for the largest Islamic terrorist attack committed on our country. Then you remember that The Zohran is the mayor, and it makes sense.

If for some reason it doesn’t make sense, Dave Portnoy has provided a list of reasons why, if you were someone affected by 9/11, you would prefer The Zohran stay home and make another TikTok.

Not to sound like an El Pres dickrider. Granted, he is our second greatest living current president. But he’s also the only resemblance of opposition to The Zohran. It’s not like NYC has a GOP to speak of. Dave Portnoy is all we got right now.

The Zohran was asked about the families of 9/11 victims telling him to stay home. He said that, to honor their memories, he’s going to show up anyway.

This was after his press conference on how he intends to put local bodegas out of business (while he and his elitist friends continue to shop at Whole Foods) so that the empty storefronts will make it easier for his allies to seize the properties while the people who voted for him find themselves being dependent on him for food (I’m paraphrasing).

Novakhov said he would send a formal letter asking the Justice Department to investigate New York State, New York City, and Mamdani.

He specifically called on federal officials “and most importantly to investigate Mamdani’s hatred against the Jewish population of New York City and New York State.”

Far-left Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) urged New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to follow through on his campaign pledge to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and offered to assist him with the effort.

Mamdani repeatedly promised during his campaign that he would direct the New York Police Department to enforce an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court over Netanyahu’s role in the war in Gaza.

The socialist mayor has since acknowledged that New York City lacks the independent legal authority to carry out such an arrest.

“Arrest him,” Tlaib said in a statement.

“He’s a war criminal.”

Tlaib Offers to Assist with ‘Citizen’s Arrest’

Mamdani’s proposal divided House Democrats, with some endorsing the effort while others acknowledged that a city mayor has no authority to enforce an ICC warrant.

Tlaib said she was uncertain whether Mamdani could instead pursue a citizen’s arrest.

“I don’t know if it applies to citizen’s arrest,” Tlaib said.

(LifeSiteNews) — In apparent response to statements from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani regarding the potential of arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as he enters the city to attend a United Nations General Assembly, President Donald Trump declared no such detaining will occur.

“Benjamin Netanyahu will not be arrested, in any way, shape, or form, while in the United States of America,” the 47th U.S. president wrote in a Monday post on Truth Social.

Trump’s public comment came out after Mamdani stated in a New York Times interview that his office was in “active conversation with our legal department” to consider potentially arresting Netanyahu if he comes to the city for the UN General Assembly in September.

Yet, after Trump’s post, Mamdani released a short candid video statement on Tuesday that, on X alone, has garnered more than 64 million views in less than 24 hours.

“Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal, the architect of a horrific genocide against the Palestinian people,” the 34-year-old politician stated. “He is responsible for the killing of more than 73,000 people, for the maiming of tens of thousands of children, as those who survive undergo amputation without anesthesia,” he said regarding massive scale atrocities executed by the Israeli army in Gaza.

The Democratic Party has found itself in the midst of an internal rift just as the midterms are looming. Between revolutionary democratic socialists and establishment liberals, even the media has struggled to pick sides in the battle for the heart of the party. MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough, however, seems to have settled on a choice. On Monday’s Morning Joe, he urged the establishment to let the socialists waltz right on in.

Beginning the segment, Scarborough couldn’t seem to understand why party officials might not want to let socialists and communists into their party. Why can’t we all just get along?

I don’t understand it: this is a time Democrats should be coming together, and yet, every opinion piece I see, every social media post, it’s like about a division in the Democratic party that doesn’t even have to be.

Scarborough’s response to the party divide? Just welcome the socialists with open arms! And pretend they are the ones who will convert to the establishment.

I will say, as a former Republican, now an independent, who is for pro-democracy forces, my attitude has always been, we’re Baptists. We will play 16 hymns of ‘Just as I Am’, if that’s what it takes to bring new converts down. We will wait. And when those new converts come in, we hug them.

President Donald Trump said Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “will not be arrested” when he visits New York in September, pushing back on a suggestion by Mayor Zohran Mamdani that such an arrest could happen.

Mamdani has said New York City’s legal department is discussing the possibility of arresting Netanyahu when the prime minister is in the city to attend the United Nations General Assembly.

“I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu belongs in The Hague,” Mamdani told The New York Times’ “The Interview” podcast that published Saturday.

“He’s a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court. And what you will find is that is an opinion that is held by many purely because of what his actions have wrought over these last many years,” the mayor said.

Jihadi Mayor Zohran Mamdani gutted legal protections for Jewish New Yorkers in his first hours in office, then his administration illegally buried the records that could expose why City Hall did it, who helped shape the decision, and how far its anti-Israel agenda now reaches, a new lawsuit alleges.

The suit, filed in New York State Supreme Court by veteran investigative journalist Richard Behar, seeks to force the city and Mamdani to turn over public records tied to Executive Order No. 1, the mayor’s Jan. 1, 2026 order rescinding a series of executive orders issued by former Mayor Eric Adams after the October 7 terrorist attacks on Israel and ensuing explosion of anti-Jewish bigotry across the U.S.

Adams’ orders created the Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism, adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism, barred city participation in BDS-style discrimination against Israel, protected Israeli investments and economic ties, and directed enhanced NYPD protections for houses of worship.

Lander claims he will block billionaires from buying elections. It is unclear how he will have the power to prevent people from doing that, but that is because it is just another leftist lie to give people hope that their vote matters.
