A Jewish civil rights group is urging the Justice Department to investigate Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his administration for alleged “discriminatory failure to protect Jewish residents from antisemitic hate” crimes.
The bombshell accusations from the National Jewish Advocacy Center come two days after the Poetica Coffee shop in Brooklyn told pro-Israel Jewish Rep. Dan Goldman never to enter the eatery again, claiming it doesn’t serve “genocdial enablers.”
“The National Jewish Advocacy Center writes to request that the Civil Rights Division open an investigation, under its pattern-or-practice authority … into whether the City of New York and the New York City Police Department are denying Jewish New Yorkers the equal protection of the laws by failing to protect them against a documented and severe wave of antisemitic violence,” said the letter signed by NJAC CEO Mark Goldfeder and other staff lawyers.
NJAC cites NYPD data showing Jewish New Yorkers were the victims of 330 reported hate crimes in 2025 — or 57% of the total – while Jews account for just one of every 10 New York residents.
“That’s more than six a week. This referral asks the Division to answer why the City’s response to that record runs in the opposite direction from the data,” Goldfeder said in the letter dated Tuesday to Patrick McCarthy, acting chief of the Justice Department’s Special Litigation Section Civil Rights Division.
The referral claims the mayor’s own decisions and words have contributed to discrimination against Jews.
“Whether the City adopts or revokes a definition of antisemitism for its agencies, how it structures and funds the office charged with combating hate, and whether a Council bill protecting Jewish schoolchildren becomes law or is vetoed, are executive policy choices the Charter assigns to the Mayor,” the letter to the Justice Department said.

Madmani probably enjoys being probed.
” Jewish New Yorkers were the victims of 330 reported hate crimes in 2025”
I wonder how many of those instances consisted of actual physical assaults? I mean they can spot a swastika in a public bathroom and call it a “hate crime”. Seems this group just wants to shut down any anti-Israel expression in NYC. If someone refuses a Zionist politician (Goldman) from coming into their eatery that should be their right. I doubt NY’s are going to put up with such intimidation.
And now they're trying to pretend he's not one of their own.
The term Controlled Opposition comes to mind.
Shouldn’t have voted for him.
Cuck of the left
Left Liberal and Left Wing Jews adrd this, and it ALWAYS comes back to eat them.
What is ‘adrd’?
It’s too late. Tens and tens of millions of third world savages have been brought into this country, and Democrat judges will never let them be expelled. We are going to shift very far to the left far more quickly than anyone could possibly imagine.
Added
We are going to have a civil war, very likely.
Red States are getting redder. Blue States are getting bluer.
Or it could be that you’re an idiot.
That’s my bet.

Looks like NYC going full Mamdanistan. Zohran’s candidates so far winning big. This is the Democratic Party now. The Red-Green Alliance.— Paul Mauro (@PaulDMauro) June 24, 2026
“ Shouldn’t have voted for him.”
