Muslims Against Mamdani: The Case Against Comrade Zohran

 In a recent interview in California, Gubernatorial Candidate Katie Porter imploded and made a fool of herself. She berated the journalist and demanded she be afforded a pleasant experience. This woman is a bully with terrible policy so there was jubilee and celebration to  see this downfall of her own making. This is how the interview fell off the rails:
"What do you say to the 40% of CA voters who you'll need in order to win, who voted for Trump?" Porter was asked by CBS California's Julie Watts during a segment on the controversial redistricting effort launched by Democrats in the state. 
"How would I need them in order to win, ma'am?" Porter, considered by many to be the frontrunner in the race, responded.
"Well, unless you think you're going to get 60% of the vote," the reporter, asking about the voter breakdown of Democrats and Republicans in the state, said before Porter started laughing. 
Yes, Kamala Harris won California in the 2024 election - everyone knew that she would. But voting is not just about who gets elected to office, it is about having your voice heard. I would imagine that many Republicans and anti-Kamala independents in California stayed home knowing that Trump was sure to lose their State. Why bother? That makes it even more impressive that he won 40% of the vote in arguably the most forward facing liberal state in the union. That many people came out just to have their voice heard. Their efforts paid off and during this redistricting fight and in the run-up to the next election journalists and politicians are taking their wishes into account. 
How does this relate to the November 2025 mayoral race in NY? I know that as an anti-Mamdani campaigner, I do not need to merely convince you that Mamdani is dangerous and terrible for NY, but that even if his victory appears inevitable, making your voice heard is your moral imperative. As I lay out everything he stands for think if any one thing you feel is so evil and beyond the pale that you have a civic duty to let the world know that New Yorkers stand against this. In Judaism we are taught that the decisions of rulers are in the hand of God but that does not exempt us from our responsibility as a citizen. What will you say to your children when they ask you if you spoke up when an avowed socialist set his sights on NY? 

Key Policy Ideas and Past Stated Positions

Mamdani's statement on Oct 7, 2025.
Two years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities.
In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: a death toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all.
This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account.
These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.
Israel's response:
“By repeating Hamas’s lies, he excuses terror and normalizes antisemitism. He stands with Jews only when they are dead. Shameful,” the post said.
