Socialist Energy Growing in Democratic Party: Zohran Mamdani Endorses Radical Darializa Avila Chevalier in New York’ 13th Congressional District

Darializa Chevalier, who is running for Congress and endorsed by Zohran Mamdani, founded the group at Columbia that posted “Death to America,” and said that it’s part of the same movement as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.

Chevalier founded a Columbia University group that posted “Death to America” and declared itself part of the same movement as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. According to the Free Beacon, she also praised a convicted Palestinian terrorist involved in a bombing that killed two Israeli civilians. Within Democratic Socialist circles, critics have dubbed her a “Palestine ultra.”

Mamdani’s endorsement is more than a local political alliance—it’s a window into the direction of an increasingly radical Democratic Party. Candidates once confined to the activist fringe are now being elevated by the party’s rising socialist wing, bringing anti-Israel and anti-American rhetoric ever closer to the halls of Congress.

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.

Mamdani wiped those protections out on day one.

Politicians love to say they will be the guy (or gal) who represents all the people. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said the same thing throughout his 2025 campaign for the highest office in the Big Apple: that he would be mayor for all the people. But at least one New York City councilman is now saying, “not so much,” when it comes to where in the city that Mamdani is focusing on various improvement projects.

City Councilman Phil Wong of Queens is accusing Mamdani of playing favorites, and distributing resources for city improvement efforts in neighborhoods that voted for him. There may also be some disturbing proof of this. A 2025 election map overlaid with Mamdani’s “First 100 Days” map using AI, compares voting demographics to where the various projects going on around the city are located. Some of these projects include roadwork, housing, and public transportation improvements.

Manhattan’s average one-bedroom apartment now costs more than $5,000 a month, and critics say the real culprit is not landlord greed. It is government failure.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani rolled out his housing proposal, “Block by Block: The Housing Plan for a New Era,” on May 20, promising to build 200,000 “affordable” rent-controlled homes and preserve another 200,000 existing units over the next decade.

The price tag is just as sweeping as the promise: $22 billion in taxpayer money over five years.

But critics warn the plan looks less like a solution and more like a government takeover of the housing market, with City Hall doubling down on the same policies that helped create the crisis in the first place.

If you hope to appeal to the average voter, the last thing a candidate should be doing is throwing around a basketball, promising things that don’t make sense. But that is precisely what several New York Democrats did, as they beg voters to cast their ballots in their favor, as the election is on June 21.

The ad starts with Mayor Zohran Mamdani claiming “anything is possible with a great team,” right before passing the ball to Brad Lander. 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. He claims this will protect Democracy. However, for some reason, whenever the left claims to be fighting for Democracy, it almost always seems to destroy it. Why do you think that is?

Lander then passed the ball to Darializa Avila Chevalier, who claims she will defend New York by abolishing ICE. It is not known how you can defend the people of your city by fighting for foreign nationals who have broken federal immigration laws, but that is because you cannot. By pretending to fight for New Yorkers, she has proven who she truly intends to represent, and it certainly is not you — the American people. But what else is new?

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani reiterated his commitment to socialism over the weekend when pressed on a funding shortfall that could prevent him from carrying out some of his top priorities.

“I believe in it even more than I did the day before [the election], and that’s because of the fact that it is focused on the needs of working people,” Mamdani said during an NBC Meet the Press interview released Saturday. “And working people need that focus, that fight from politicians more than ever.”

Mamdani was questioned about how he plans to carry out his hopes of freezing the rent on roughly one million apartments in the country’s largest city, as well as making buses free and providing free universal child care, despite facing a $5.4 billion budget deficit. In response, the mayor said he has already made significant progress in closing the budget gap, and touted Gov. Kathy Hochul’s (D-NY) proposal for a new tax on residents who own second homes in New York City that are worth $5 million or more as a policy that will advance his goals.

We told you that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani would be bad, and the democrat socialist has proven to be as terrible or perhaps even worse than we warned.

He’s continued his antisemitic rhetoric and demeaning of police, wants to tax the wealthy out of existence (or at least, out of the state), and is striving to make DEI great again — just what nobody needs.

On Sunday, he announced that the city’s first city-run grocery store will open in East Harlem, and it will cost $30 million to build and take over a year to complete.

Trump could probably build a dozen of these for $30 million. Why so much? Union wages play a part, but that doesn’t explain it all, considering Mamdani had earlier promised five stores for a mere $70 million:

Even assuming New York City’s priciest union-driven construction costs, a standard-sized 25,000-square-foot grocery store should only be about $15 million to build, said Adam Lehodey, an expert at the Manhattan Institute.

“Thirty million dollars for one store is exceptionally high, considering land prices are a significant part of the capital costs of new construction, and the city has announced that rents will be waived,” he said.

The ghosts of the old Soviet Union leaders are beaming with pride when they watch this video:

You have to be an absolute monster to be sent to Rikers Island. Mamdani’s constituency. But he won’t meet with the families of the people these violent criminals have killed or the the women they’ve raped or the NYPD injured in the line of duty. Just the criminals.

This is another fitting example of why many are fleeing New York City. The dynamic is nicely captured in the opening of a piece at Tablet magazine: “My breaking point wasn’t getting mugged,” Josh Greenberg, a digital media strategist who left Park Slope, New York, in early 2022, told me. “It was realizing the city had more sympathy for the guy that mugged me than they did for me.”

Editors note: The reason why I place “fast” in quotes is because you can eat like a horse in the morning and you can eat like a horse in the evening. I do not consider that a “fast.”

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is one of the most singularly focused Democrat politicians I’ve seen in a long time. He often will turn anything, any unrelated news event, any public appearance, into a discussion about the so-called “Palestinian cause,” and how Israel and, via extension, America, is allegedly committing “genocide” against the Hamas (and Hezbollah) terrorists who literally want to wipe the Jewish people and their western allies off the map.

We saw this, for instance, the weekend of March 7th and 8th, when Mamdani’s first words about the attempted terrorist attack by two adult teens – who the DOJ said were inspired by ISIS – on anti-Mamdani demonstrators that weekend at Gracie Mansion, were to condemn… Islamophobia.

“This was a vile protest rooted in white supremacy entitled ‘Stop the Islamic takeover of New York City,” Mamdani proclaimed. “I’m the first Muslim mayor of our city. Anti-Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me, nor is it anything new to the roughly one million New Yorkers who know this city as our home,” he went on to say while merely giving a passing reference to the attack itself, where IEDs were thrown.

On March 7, a throng of left-wing counter protestors met with a small right-wing protest outside Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D). From within the crowd, 18-year-old Emir Balat threw a homemade bomb and yelled “Allahu akbar.” Balat and his friend Ibrahim Kayumi were arrested for the attack, and law enforcement later determined that the two were ISIS sympathizers.

All of the above information was publicly available by the afternoon of March 7. By 2:00 p.m. ET, several videos of Balat throwing the bomb were already circulating on social media, in which he could clearly be heard yelling the well-known Islamist slogan.

Despite all of that information being readily available, The New York Times’s first headline about the incident read: “Homemade Bomb Thrown at Protest Near N.Y.C. Mayor’s House, Police Say” — a summary so vague that it almost seemed to pin the bomb-throwing on the right-wing protestors.

Last weekend, an attempted bombing occurred outside Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York City’s Muslim mayor, Zohran Mamdani (D). During a heated clash between anti-Islam protesters and a group of counterprotesters, two teenagers from Pennsylvania — 18-year-old Emir Balat and 19-year-old Ibrahim Kayumi — allegedly threw two improvised explosive devices toward the crowd.

Fortunately, neither bomb detonated, and no one was injured. Both Balat and Kayumi were arrested and charged with attempting to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization, using a weapon of mass destruction, transportation of explosive materials, and unlawful possession of destructive devices.

TPUSA Frontlines photojournalist Gabriel Victal was present at the scene when the attack occurred. But the attempted bombing, he says, “wasn’t the first instance” of violence.
