Over 96,000 Americans Sign Petition To Ban Mamdani From the Solemn Commemoration of 9/11– gellerreport.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

Mamdani is planning on ignoring them. Hitler-with-a-happy-face is counting on the sharia-compliant Democrat socialist media axis to frame his visit in a positive way and censoring any protest or the tens of thousands of people who will turn their back on him.

The Change.org petition: we respectfully ask that the organizers carefully consider whether Mr. Mamdani’s participation would align with the intention of the ceremony and the expectations of the families most directly affected by the tragedy (Change).

Kevin McCullough: Think about that. A man who lost his wife that morning is asking the mayor of New York City not to come…. Referring to what we’re seeing from today’s Democrats: This is something else. A political movement increasingly afraid to say the words “Islamist terrorism” while portions of its own coalition flirt openly with ideas that are hostile to American law, American institutions and, in some cases, America itself. And now we’re having the argument at Ground Zero. That’s what gets me. Ground Zero. There are approximately eight million other places in New York City where politicians can conduct their ideological experiments. Leave this one alone. Because September 11 belongs first to the people who never came home. It belongs to the firefighters whose photographs still hang in firehouses across the city. It belongs to the police officers who walked into hell. It belongs to the children who grew up without mothers and fathers. It belongs to people like Giovanni Galante, who has lived twenty-five years without his wife (Townhall).

Southern Methodist University cancels ‘Unapologetically Muslim’ student conference– www.thecollegefix.com

EXCERPT:

A student conference organized by CAIR-Texas to be held at Southern Methodist University has been canceled, with campus officials citing a proclamation from Texas Gov. Greg Abbott designating CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as “terrorist” organizations.

The “Unapologetically Muslim: Youth in Action” conference for high school and college students had been slated for Sept. 19 at the Dallas-based campus.

In a statement provided to local media, a campus spokesperson said “SMU welcomes a wide range of organizations and perspectives to campus as part of our commitment to open inquiry and the free exchange of ideas.”

However, after “reviewing plans for an upcoming unaffiliated youth leadership symposium advertised to take place at SMU, the University has determined that permitting the event to take place on campus, given the State of Texas’ current designation of the symposium’s organizer, is inconsistent with our mission and related University policies. As a result, the event will not take place on campus,” the statement read.

The event was slated to include “interactive sessions,” “mock testimony,” and “power mapping,” according to an online flier. Power mapping is a community organizing tool used to influence political leaders by pressuring the people and systems around them.

“Designed for high school students and rising college freshmen and sophomores, MYLS brings together young Muslims from across Texas for a full day focused on leadership and civic engagement,” CAIR-Texas’ website states.

Trump admin set to target George Soros nonprofit, Southern Poverty Law Center and CAIR in major tax crackdown: sources
By James Franey, NY Post, Aug. 27, 2026, 3:18 p.m. ET

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and the IRS could revoke the tax-free status of left-wing nonprofits such as George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the Council on American-Islamic Relations, three sources familiar with the matter have told The Post.

It is part of a Trump-backed crackdown on “bogus” charities, and Treasury officials are drawing up a sweeping audit of outfits deemed to be using and abusing Uncle Sam’s tax code, the three people briefed on the Treasury Department’s internal policy deliberations said.

Bessent’s inner circle is drafting a blueprint that could ultimately strip non-compliant organizations of their 501(c)(3) status, according to two of the people familiar with the plans. The reviews could result in massive back payments and civil penalties, the same sources said.

The left is throwing a fit after one of their legacy media outlets wrote a provocative headline about Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed.

On Monday, CBS News went viral after writing this X post, which has so far garnered over 12 million views:

“As the nation prepares to mark 25 years since Sept. 11, 2001, Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, may be facing the risk of renewed scrutiny and fresh political attack,” The post reads.

CBS Host Brennan Avoids Naming El-Sayed Amid Piker Controversy on Face The Natio– www.newsbusters.org
News Source
EXCERPT:

Ever since Abdul El-Sayed became the Democratic Senate nominee from Michigan, the liberal media has been doing all \it can to protect him against accusations of anti-Semitism, and belittle concerns about his close relationship with radical left wing streamer Hasan Piker, who, among other outrageous statements, once said America deserved 9-11. On Sunday’s Face The Nation, CBS host Margaret Brennan’s performance was one of the most egregious examples of this.

After receiving a ‘good morning’ welcome from Brennan, Congressman John James of Michigan, who is also the GOP’s gubernatorial candidate from the state, wasted no time in getting his main point across:

JAMES: Hey, Margaret, good morning. Thank you so much for having me on. I’m really excited, because in a state like Michigan, we have the most extreme ticket running, with Abdul El Sayyed and Jocelyn Benson [MI Secretary of State and Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate] campaigning with people who said that we deserved 9/11–

BRENNAN: Okay–

JAMES: I say, never forget.

James seemed to rattle Brennan, who was apparently caught off guard, and then acted confused, as if she had never heard this issue raised before, or as if she had never heard of Piker. She also seemed to label Benson as a senate candidate, which is of course incorrect:

Oh, wow. I want to ask you about some issues with your platform and the like, but never forget, of course. I’m sorry, did you just accuse Senate candidates of something to do with terrorism? I’m not clear what you just said?

“Senate candidates?” “Something to do with terrorism?” She refused to mention both El-Sayed, or Piker, who, maybe someone should inform Brennan.

So here we go. Piker recently said that American Jews who support Israel, are responsible for bringing about acts of anti-Semitism, causing a rebuke from House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and has along history of verbally attacking Jews.

Mamdani Locked in Unexpected War with NY Teachers Union Over Big Bonuses– www.westernjournal.com

EXCERPT:

Well, this probably wasn’t on anyone’s scoreboard coming into Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s ballyhooed running of New York City.

As most could tell you, the far left — which Mamdani has acknowledged he’s a card-carrying member of — and worker’s unions have long been viewed as “on the same side.”

(There’s a reason President Donald Trump worked overtime to win worker’s unions in the lead-up to the 2024 election.)

But despite ostensibly being “on the same side,” it appears that Mamdani’s first true PR battle in the Big Apple won’t be against some conservative or Republican.

No, he appears to be going to war with the local teacher’s union — and some conservatives are actually lauding Mamdani for his stance on this.

And no, that’s not a typo. That’s literally how The New York Times frames it.

“By Fighting Union Pay Bonus, Mamdani Wins Rare Praise From Conservatives,” the outlet proclaims in its headline.

Are teachers unions too powerful?

With the rise of Islamist Progressive candidates and elected officials nationwide, President Trump has declared that, if needed, he will issue an executive order to prevent Sharia from being the Rule of Law in any American-ruled jurisdiction.

He declared in an interview, “Number one, on Sharia law, I would absolutely say that’s not this country. There’s no Sharia law. And you do have pockets of it, as you know… I would absolutely prohibit the Sharia Law thing. It is happening in this country a little bit, and where we see it, we take it out… We have one system.”

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would “absolutely” support prohibiting Sharia law in the United States, arguing that Americans should be governed under one legal system rather than competing religious codes.

Trump made the remarks during a live interview with conservative radio host Glenn Beck, who asked whether the president would support or sign legislation aimed at barring Sharia law.

“Number one, on Sharia law, I would absolutely say that’s not this country,” Trump said.

“There’s no Sharia law,” the president continued.

“And you do have pockets of it, as you know.”

The president pointed to developments in Europe as a warning for the United States.

“And you go to London, you go to Paris,” Trump said.

“It’s almost like a second way of life. It’s ridiculous.”

Mamdani ‘Deeply Saddened’ by Death of Suspect Charged with Cold-Blooded Murder– www.breitbart.com

EXCERPT:

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he was “deeply saddened” by the death of a Rikers Island inmate charged with murdering a shop owner with a meat cleaver in an unprovoked attack.

“I am deeply saddened by the death of a New Yorker in City custody at a jail on Rikers Island early this morning,” Mamdani said. “My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss.”

Mamdani said officials have not yet determined what caused the inmate’s death.

“We do not yet know the cause of death, but we do know that too many New Yorkers have died on Rikers Island,” he said.

The Department of Correction and its oversight partners will investigate the circumstances surrounding the death, according to Mamdani. The mayor also renewed his administration’s commitment to improving conditions in the city’s jail system and closing Rikers Island “as quickly as possible.”

The inmate had been charged with killing a shop owner in an unprovoked meat-cleaver attack. Clarence Woodward, a 39-year-old homeless parolee, was arrested following the August 8, 2024, attack at the 303 Laundromat in the Bronx. He was charged with murder, manslaughter, and assault.

Mamdani Humiliated After Key Socialist Policy Fails Miserably– trendingpoliticsnews.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

Mayor Zohran Mamdani promised relief for tenants, but New York’s apartment market is serving up another painful reality.

The average asking rent for an available Manhattan apartment has climbed to a staggering $6,655 a month, according to industry experts. That’s a 10% spike from a year ago.

Studios now average more than $4,000 a month, while families searching for three bedrooms can expect to shell out upward of $12,000 every month.

Zohran Mamdani’s “rent freeze” won’t fix the forces driving up those prices, and, according to a new analysis by the New York Post, the policy could make the housing crunch even worse.

Roughly 1 million apartments, accounting for more than a quarter of the city’s housing supply, are protected from market pricing by rent regulation. Tenants in those units have little incentive to move, leaving fewer apartments available and pushing up the cost of the city’s roughly 1 million market-rate units.

The freeze also disproportionately helps higher-income tenants rather than the lower-income New Yorkers progressives claim to champion.

Gottheimer said, “El-Sayed’s statement totally fell short. You’re talking about a guy, Hasan Piker, who’s a — as you pointed out, he posts on Twitch and streams on Twitch, millions of followers. He is nothing more than a grifter and a hater. Although, unfortunately, many of my colleagues have decided to campaign with him. Many of — many Democratic candidates have campaigned with him, including El-Sayed, who in his — the last night before his primary had Hasan Piker front and center with him. And his statement yesterday, instead of coming out and condemning Piker, condemning his statement, saying he refuses to ever campaign with him again, he did nothing of the sort. And, to me, the fact that he leaves the window open to do more with Hasan Piker, it’s totally unacceptable. You saw, of course, Leader Hakeem Jeffries coming out strongly against Hasan Piker. I think all of my colleagues should.”

Guess Who Abdul El-Sayed Blames for Islamic Terrorism– townhall.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

Islamic terrorism has been a problem for ages. Going back centuries, Islamic factions have engaged in behavior that fits the modern-day definition of terrorism. This predates the founding of America, and shortly after American independence, the Barbary States (Tripoli, Algiers, Tunis, Morocco) attacked and seized American ships. Envoy Thomas Jefferson and John Adams met with Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman. In a report to Secretary of State John Jay, Jefferson and Adams said, “The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.”

So this is a problem with Islam, not America. But guess who Abdul El-Sayed blamed for current-day Islamic terrorism?

That’s right: the U.S.

The Democratic Socialists of America are becoming a problem for progressive Democrats who continue to hope nudging America towards progressivism is a better strategy than ripping the American band-aide off.

With the rise of Democratic Socialists within their own party, the Democrats are allowing Americans a clear choice between America and the Progressive state. So far, the DSA is causing some formerly strong DNC seats to become leans Democrat, but the voting population has yet to abandon these openly anti-American insurrectionist candidates.

EXCERPT:

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).

GOP triggered by Mamdani making the ultrarich pay up– www.dailykos.com
News Source
EXCERPT:

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.

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

EXCERPT:

 

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.”

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.

If you want to get the promised 30% discount of Mamdani’s Socialist grocery stores, you’re going to need Photo ID confirming you are a resident of the city. Zohran Mamdani, the Islamist Socialist Mayor of New York City, is opening his state-owned grocery stores to the public, but only if they have photo ID.

In America, the left has determined that mandating ID for voting in federal elections is, in fact, racist. This is why it is bizarre, hypocritical, and illogical, based on leftist standards, that NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani will be requiring ID to obtain goods at his future municipal grocery stores.

The double standards sure are doubling, aren’t they?

According to Mamdani, this is not a program for “people to make a quick buck through reselling.” It is for New Yorkers “to put people’s food on the table.” While they tried to downplay this by claiming a library card may suffice, they know exactly how asinine it is for them to demand you are who you say you are, as they imply people do not follow the rules, but could not care less about those standards at the ballot box. To call this a threat to Democracy would be an understatement.

Per The Post Millennial:

Mamdani’s DSA and Democrat elected leaders at large have opposed voter ID or even ensuring citizenship before voting. A majority of Americans support voter ID and citizenship-only voting with verification. The DSA endorsed DSA-member Mamdani ahead of his election, and claims, “Our candidates for office stand firm against racist voter ID laws and secret poll taxes like the ‘SAVE America Act.'”

Trump says Netanyahu will not be arrested despite Mamdani’s call to detain ‘war criminal’– www.lifesitenews.com

(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.

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.
