If you really want to know what is at stake in this election, not only for New York but also our nation, watch the video at the bottom.
NYC Mayoral Frontrunner Zohran Mamdani Publicly Embraces Imam Named in WTC Bombing Plot Who Preached Replacing U.S. Law with Sharia
Zohran Mamdani — the frontrunner to become mayor of New York City — has publicly and proudly aligned himself with Siraj Wahhaj, an imam named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing who defends terrorists, calls America “filthy,” and openly preaches that U.S. law must be replaced with Islamic rule.
NEW YORK — October 18, 2025 —z, now favored to become New York City’s next mayor, campaigned this week while publicly embracing one of the most notorious terror-linked imams in the United States — a man named an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing plot and who has repeatedly denounced American law, culture, and sovereignty.
Mamdani posted a smiling photo of himself arm-in-arm with Brooklyn imam Siraj Wahhaj, alongside City Councilmember Yusef Salaam, at the highly controversial Masjid At-Taqwa in Bedford-Stuyvesant. He captioned the post:
“I had the pleasure of meeting Imam Siraj Wahhaj, one of the nation’s foremost Muslim leaders and a pillar of the Bed-Stuy community… a beautiful Jummah.”
No qualifier. No caveat. No condemnation.
Who Mamdani Chose to Elevate Siraj Wahhaj, 75 — formerly Jeffrey Kearse — was named by federal prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six people and injured more than a thousand. He later testified on behalf of Omar Abdel-Rahman, the “Blind Sheik,” calling the terror leader a “respected scholar.”
Wahhaj has publicly:
Called America “a garbage can — filthy and sick.”
Declared it is “bullshit for Muslims to pledge allegiance to the U.S. flag.”
Said Sharia must replace the U.S. Constitution.
Bragged that churches are closing and being converted into mosques.
Lectured that Islam is not here to coexist, but to dominate. He preaches that the Quran must replace the U.S. Constitution once Muslims have the numbers to seize power.
Much more at link.

I've said it repeatedly, his communism is not the concern.
They've taken Minneapolis, Detroit, are working on Dallas, and soon NYC. If you ain't worried about this shit, you ought to be.

The Glorious Coming Lessons of the Mamdani Landslide By John Conlin
As the political establishment runs about with their hair on fire screaming about the upcoming horrors of a Mamdani win in the New York City mayor’s race, I laugh with delight.
Include political and social “elites” and I agree 100%.
First, lets get real. NYC, unfortunately like a lot of places in the country, is basically one-party rule. Therefore, whoever wins the primary has an enormous probability of winning the general election. The real fight is in the primary.
Everyone knows this. Everyone. I’m not the one who didn’t take the communist Mamdani as a serious candidate and basically handed him the primary election. The same is true for AOC.
So don’t expect me to cry because you NYC Democrats are too stupid -- lazy? -- to work to win the primary with someone you actually want to win the general. You get what you sow and I expect the results of this to be a spectacle of failure and insanity. And hopefully a significant learning lesson for the rest of the country.
Many fear the Mamdani win will empower the Democrats to copy him around the country. I hope so. Please re-read Mencken’s quote above.
And for my Jewish friends, it is difficult to have sympathy with your antisemitic plight -- which is likely to get far worse -- when you actively vote for a clear antisemite. I’m not the one who thinks in tribal ways. I don’t believe in tribes but what am I supposed to do if you and your tribe want to commit suicide? The blame lies with you, not me.
Mamdani is just beginning to spread his Islamist wings. NYC is about to see what Islam and life in the Middle East and Africa is truly like. Hint, Islam has a built-in hatred for your people and they actually mean it.
There’s an old rule, first you have to help yourself. Until this happens my sympathies are limited. The same is true for all of NYC.
It is a huge, important city so it will recover from the coming madness -- though it may take decades. But it will never be the same. When the exodus of large companies and rich individuals starts in earnest, keep in mind they will most likely never come back. For a while the city will become a shell of what it once was. And I will enjoy the spectacle every single day.
Hopefully this will become an exercise in reality for those of us in the rest of the country. First it emphasizes the folly of uncontrolled and unassimilated immigration.
Some polls show over 60% of all foreign-born immigrants support Mamdani. And of course, due to a 2021 NYC law, there’s the over 800,000 non-citizens who can vote in local elections. Non-citizens can’t vote? Yeah sure.
Second, this is verboten to speak about but it will show the rest of the country that Muslim immigration needs to be reconsidered. The slow-motion suicide that Europe is committing does not have to come to this country.
Actually, in many European countries the suicide is already complete, we are just watching them slowly bleed out. The lands that gave us the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment will soon be no more. This is not just hyperbole; it is the reality on the ground and sadly baked in the cake.
IMHO, any non-Muslim country that imports Muslim immigrants is insane. Whether one likes it or not, not all cultures and beliefs are the same. As they say, FAFO. Hopefully NYC’s coming “finding out” will open eyes across the country. The FA part has already happened.
And lastly of course there are Mamdani’s economic plans. Sooner or later, Americans must accept that politics cannot, and does not operate outside of reality. Just because one wants something to be true does not make it so.
His plans will fail because they can’t work. No more complicated than that. If one could tax oneself to prosperity, it would have already been done and there would be no poor countries anywhere in the world!
Top-down, command-and-control systems violate the natural systems which make our modern lives possible. Big government has never been the solution to anything. His city-run grocery stores will fail in months, if not days.
You would never get on a plane that was built ignoring the laws of physics and aerodynamics, yet people are going to vote for a person who espouses ideas that have never worked in the history of man. I can’t stop you from eating dirt if that’s what you really want to do, but don’t expect much sympathy from me when you cry that your stomach hurts.

I hope NYC's visit to hell is brief, and does become an object lesson to the rest of the country. Mr. Conlin is not wrong about what will happen if Mamdani wins. I think he understates it quite a bit.
The media has been the biggest enemy to freedom and America for at least half a century, so I don't expect accurate reporting about what happens there. Not until the shit show is so bad that it can't be white washed, because the media ignores what they don't want people to know.

NYC deserves everything they get
let it burn
the people need to be beaten over the head with a 2X4 to understand that they're just plain stupid but hey, its their head
everything in NY that is important to the country can be relocated somewhere else
when it falls apart, don't feel any sympathy for them - they are aware of what they're doing
as for the Jewish community in NYC - tough shit guys. You continue to vote for the people that hate you and you're going to get what you deserve

Soddom and Gamorrah
10 But the men inside reached out and pulled Lot back into the house and shut the door. 11 Then they struck the men who were at the door of the house, young and old, with blindness so that they could not find the door.
12 The two men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here—sons-in-law, sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here, 13 because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the Lord against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it.”
14 So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry[a] his daughters. He said, “Hurry and get out of this place, because the Lord is about to destroy the city!” But his sons-in-law thought he was joking.
15 With the coming of dawn, the angels urged Lot, saying, “Hurry! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away when the city is punished.”
16 When he hesitated, the men grasped his hand and the hands of his wife and of his two daughters and led them safely out of the city, for the Lord was merciful to them. 17 As soon as they had brought them out, one of them said, “Flee for your lives! Don’t look back, and don’t stop anywhere in the plain! Flee to the mountains or you will be swept away!”
18 But Lot said to them, “No, my lords,[b] please! 19 Your[c] servant has found favor in your[d] eyes, and you[e] have shown great kindness to me in sparing my life. But I can’t flee to the mountains; this disaster will overtake me, and I’ll die. 20 Look, here is a town near enough to run to, and it is small. Let me flee to it—it is very small, isn’t it? Then my life will be spared.”
21 He said to him, “Very well, I will grant this request too; I will not overthrow the town you speak of. 22 But flee there quickly, because I cannot do anything until you reach it.” (That is why the town was called Zoar.[f])
23 By the time Lot reached Zoar, the sun had risen over the land. 24 Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the Lord out of the heavens. 25 Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, destroying all those living in the cities—and also the vegetation in the land. 26 But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 Early the next morning Abraham got up and returned to the place where he had stood before the Lord. 28 He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah, toward all the land of the plain, and he saw dense smoke rising from the land, like smoke from a furnace.

This clown's rise to prominence is a long time in the making. Anybody who's paid attention to or, even taken some time to checkout the make-up of the NY City Council members will see a massive swath of hard-core, far-Lefties are the majority members; only 6 GOP out of 51 total members. Whomever the Blue Dog Dems are, are basically clinging to their seats until teh next election.

Yes, and similar to braaaaack hussein obamalamadingdong sotero’s political rise.
Having grown up in a small town about 50 miles north of NYC, I spent A LOT of time in the city while growing up and beyond that into my 30’s/40’s, enjoying much of what the Big Apple had to offer.
I am saddened to know what will likely become of NYC after mamdani is elected.
My immediate and close family in NY/NJ still living in close proximity to NYC, all liberal, democrat, Progressive, and Jewish are besides themselves and beyond verklempt over it.
I have been warning them for years, YEARS on the disastrous outcomes that their political ideology would bring in general to the Republic and specifically for Jews and Israel.
They are silent now on current events (to me anyway), but because I try to be respectful and loving towards them, and my folks are in their early 90’s and I want to enjoy whatever time I have left with them, I will not rub their faces in the mess that they helped to make.

The young commie received a cease-and-desist order from the New York Knicks, apparently the little commie ripped off their logo for his use in a campaign ad.
quote:
"The NY Knicks have sent NYC Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani a cease-and-desist letter for using the NY Knicks logo to promote his candidacy. The Knicks want to make it clear that we do not endorse Mr. Mamdani for Mayor, and we object to his use of our copyrighted logo. We will pursue all legal remedies to enforce our rights."

Just Accept That New York City Is Lost Derek Hunter
Honestly, if you don’t live in New York City, why do you care about New York City? You probably don’t, but you still can’t escape talk of the race for mayor because, well, most national news organizations are based in Manhattan and what happens there matters to them, so they force it on you.
That being said, who runs the city does matter to the country to some extent, though much less now. Back when the stock market was a physical place where people piled onto the floor to throw pieces of paper all over each other as fortunes were made and lost, NYC mattered. Now it’s mostly done on a computer or even a phone while the brokers collect massive commissions and bonus checks in between lines of blow in Miami.
The financial hub of America ain’t what it used to be, to say the least, or at least as important a location.
That being said, taxes and regulations can still screw things up; it’s just more localized than it used to. That’s good – a mistake in New York City has less of a chance to ripple to where you live, which is why I’m content to let the city destroy itself.
You can only warn someone that what they’re about to do will be bad, if they choose to do it anyway…that’s on them. When that stupidity is electing a radical leftist, I simply cannot bring myself to care.
Zohran Mamdani is probably going to be the next Mayor there – a radical leftist with no real-world experience and stupid ideas that have failed everywhere they’ve been tried. The boob seems to think making buses free will make things better and lead to fewer attacks on bus drivers, because (somehow) the urge to stab someone for not having a couple of bucks for a fare will fade away if the mentally unstable don’t have to pay. What once was a haven for normal people to avoid insane homeless people – getting on a bus that the crazy person won’t pay for, therefore won’t be able to follow you – is now going to be their mobile home/nap station. What could go wrong?
A lot can and will go wrong, and so be it. If these people vote for it, they deserve all the body lice they get from it.
What’s more likely to happen is fewer bus riders, because who would want to sit near the junkie soiling themselves on the way to or from work?
I’m not sure they thought this through. I also don’t care. It’s the job of voters to think things through and demand answers. New Yorkers are going with the snake oil salesman who is selling the same crap Bill de Blasio sold them, only this time with a smile. If you’re willing to be a moron for a smile, good luck to you.
There are people arguing that Curtis Sliwa, the Republican perma-candidate, should drop out to give Andrew Cuomo his best shot at beating the anti-American anti-Semite, but polls show, at least as of now, that wouldn’t be enough. Sliwa is arguing Cuomo should get out, but after multiple failed runs for mayor that barely registered on the radar, his argument is an empty one.
There doesn’t seem to be anything to be done to save New York, so let it die. Let it suffer. Yes, it will suck, but Republicans should use it as a cautionary tale for other areas of the country rather than spending any time trying to “save” them from themselves. Spend time insulating the rest of the country from New York’s economic suicide to prevent the results from metastasizing throughout the country.
It's not everywhere or everyone’s reason for existence to be a positive inspiration for others; sometimes, people are needed to lead lives as cautionary tales. It’s not often that a city does it, let alone our nation’s largest city, but whatever.
It’s hard to feel sorry for people who willingly follow a madman, so we should let them. Do not help them when it goes sideways, do not fight against it when he implements his agenda and it hurts the people who put him in power; just sit back and watch while reminding every refugee fleeing the city of what they are fleeing and why, so they don’t vote for it again.
It will be a very expensive and painful lesson learned by people who should have learned of the failures of socialism/communism/fascism in school, but instead were preached those poisons as virtues and weren’t smart enough to see through it. You can’t save people from themselves and you shouldn’t even try.

Yeah.... I know. But we all suffer because when they fail the consequences aren't contained and limited to those who voted for it.

There are some 100-150 year old magnificent homes in this state. They were built by men who made fortunes as this area was settled by pioneers. Now they have no front yard due to the roads being expanded to 6 lanes, and many have been turned into apartments or business offices.
When I drive by one of them, I am simultaneously impressed by what once was and saddened by what it has become.
