New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani received a hero’s welcome from lefty members of Congress – including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders – as he trekked down to Washington DC Wednesday in hopes of garnering more support from an array of Dems.
The 33-year-old socialist attended a breakfast event hosted by Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) at the AC Hotel in Navy Yard that was filled with mostly House Democrats, including Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), who endorsed Mamdani after his shocking Democratic mayoral primary win last month.
Many of Congress’ most ardent liberals were quick to get face time with Mamdani and pose for photos.
“Had a great meeting with @Zohran Mamdani and am deeply impressed by the grassroots campaign he is running,” Sanders (D-VT), a former presidential candidate, wrote on X while sharing photos of the two socialists sporting wide smiles.
“The Oligarchs are prepared to undermine democracy & spend tens of millions to buy the election for his opponents. We will not allow that to happen. Stand with Zohran.”
In turn, Mamdani said he was honored “to meet with one of my heroes.”
Mamdani also posed for photos with Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash), Rep. Becca Balint (D-VT) and Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) — as he was showered with praise.
“Zohran Mamdani is an incredible talent. He’s going to be a great mayor for New York City. I was proud to endorse him before the primary,” Jayapal said.

Who paid for it?
Yeah, grass root billionaires.
My question too.
Barry Soetero Mamdani
You did. You don't think that the lefties spent their own money do you?
the commies in the dem party are usually closeted
i think it is a good thing for them to come out
the commies are now loud and proud
Yeah, let’s see an accounting of who funded his campaign.
Bet he did not have bacon
I needed that comic relief. 😂
Whew. For a moment I was afraid the commie would do that himself.
RE: Mamdani’s thrilling chance to “meet some of my heroes”
As another time in history ....
In April 1962, President John F. Kennedy hosted a White House dinner to honor 47 Nobel Prize winners from the Western Hemisphere and other notable figures from the arts, sciences, and literature. Attendees included writers such as Pearl Buck and Robert Frost, as well as John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth. The guest list caused interest in political circles because it included people who were not politicians or statesmen.
During the dinner, Kennedy said, “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone”.

Methinks this is going to bite them in the ass in the long run. Tying your Fate to this guy is a huge mistake...he’s going to make Hogg’s appointment to the DNC actually look good.
That this guy is even a figment of consideration after 9/11 of all places, sickens me.
It was a Commiepalooza!
Some there are Jewish! Unbelievable!
I keep wondering if this is good or bad?
Bad that s Mohammedan has a chance to become mayor of Gotham
Good that this should convince many fence sitters and even democrats to shift rightwards
Nope. Completly believable.
What was on the menu? Toe jam and biscuits?
