Mamdani tells Trump that New York is ready to fight after president’s threats fail to thwart voters
PBS ^ | 11/5/25 | AP

NEW YORK (AP) — Zohran Mamdani wasted little time as mayor-elect of New York City before making clear that he sees part of his new role as standing up to the president of the United States, who had threatened not only to defund the city if he won but also to arrest and deport him.

Mamdani, a Democrat, addressed the Republican president directly and at length from the stage at his victory party in Brooklyn on Tuesday night.

Poor PBS, they have to rely on their liberal cousin AP for a headline.

Too bad, so sorry PBS your taxpayer funding was stripped.

Trump is a fighter and will make Mamdani's day as veteran New Yorker's say.

Trump wasn’t the only one calling him a communist. I guess it makes them feel better.

Did you see that clip of Mandami trying to bench press 100 pounds? He looked like a little girl, and couldn't do it.

He is a communist if you read the description of the fantasy that Democratic Socialists claim they want it’s communism by any other name.

Looking for a repeat of 1975 in a couple of years. Perhaps this time the federal government won’t provide assistance.

Seems like the Mayor needs to get focused on running NYC instead of fighting the POTUS, but hey, it makes great theater, and a fine distractor from the real everyday issues that affect residents.

“Zohran Mamdani wasted little time as mayor-elect of New York City before making clear that he sees part of his new role as standing up to the president of the United States”:

excellent! ... so, no reason for the Feds to bail out NYC again when it goes bankrupt again ... in fact, no reason for ANY Federal money to be spent on a city run by a guy who sees part of his job as fighting the Federal government ...

Better...

Offer the aid with conditions that will be met.

By NYC and Albany.

Including election reform, and coughing up any data the federal government wants, including SNAP data.

Fight, for what? The sane will leave the $hit hole. The Marxists, chumps and the dimwitted young females will have to fight it out for what scraps that are available. Federal funds are not going to be coming for a bail out.

screw you!

Islami Mamdani and his puppet master, BHO are celebrating their efforts to destroy one nation under a Judeo-Christian God.
They’re in for a rude awakening.
God got Trump elected and the two Islamist Bros are going down.
Ilhan Omar and her buddies are going to be flushed down the toilet of American history too.
They will awaken the sleeping giant just like Yamamoto did during WWII.
The party of satan will not win the next presidential election.

EVEN MORE SURPRISED WHEN WALL STREET SPLITS & PART GOES TO TEXAS (ALREADY) AND THE REST GOES TO FLORIDA....

HE WANTS TO TAX EVERY SINGLE STOCK TRANSACTION ON WALL STREET. NOT SURE IF “BUNDLES= TRANSACTION OR IF EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF STOCK.

VOLUME TODAY ON WALL STREET===552,155,150.

AT A DOLLAR A SHARE———OR AT ANY PRICE-—WALL STREET WILL BE MOVING OUT BY RAILROAD CAR OR C-130.

I think he means a tax per share, not per trade. That’s how he gets the money to pay for his promises.

Picking a fight with the person who you need money from is an odd strategy.
