Mamdani Just Said He's a Commie in a Whole New Way
PJ Media ^ | 18 Nov 2025 | Stephen Green

"Think globally, act locally."

Remember those bumper stickers that used to be so popular with your lefty friends and neighbors? To me, seeing one was always a tell that the owner of that car — whatever happened to "property is theft," bub? — might as well fly the hammer and sickle, whether they knew it or not.

They had drunk deep of the strawberry Kool-Aid, blindly repeating a mantra that any Soviet commissar would have instantly recognized. Spasibo for your attention to this matter, Comrade.

The international communist revolution was made possible by local action, which is exactly why you always see the most radical Democrats running for offices that you might not have even known existed, or effectively mobbing city council meetings to try and make their radical ideas seem mainstream.

...

Which brings us to New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and his latest appearance on the city's ABC-7 News.

Mamdani sat down on Sunday with ABC 7's Bill Ritter for an Up Close segment, and Ritter asked, "You said you'd arrest [Israeli PM] Benjamin Netanyahu, based on the 2024 International Criminal Court arrest warrant. Next general UN assembly, would you do that?"

But here's the part of Mamdani's reply that ought to prepare New Yorkers to get what they voted for, good, hard, and without the benefit of foreplay.

“I believe this is a city of international law," Mamdani told Ritter, "and being a city of international law means looking to uphold international law.”

Talk about getting too big for your britches. Mamdani seems to think his job is to work the will of the international left — aka Commies — rather than attend to the needs of New Yorkers. You know, the idiots who idiotically voted for this unaccomplished cupcake.

"I believe this is a city of international law"

well, it's not. it's a city of american law, and in this country if a lunatic marxist theater kid attempts to arrest a foreign head of state he simply goes to prison. hope this helps.

He is very eager to enforce illegitimate “international law” against the elected leader of the Jewish state, but is explicitly opposed to the enforcement of actual, binding federal immigration law in his city.

This is one of the most insane things I've ever heard a politician say.

Zohran Mamdani declares that New York is a "city of international law."

Last time I checked, I was pretty sure New York is an American city under U.S. law.

New York City is too big, rich, and important to be subject to the laws of the United States.

Let's see if that's still true in four years.

The ‘whole new way’. Running as a Democrat then coming out and admitting he’s a commie.

According to Article VI of the US Constitution, the US Constitution and any Federal laws passed in accordance are the Supreme Law of the Land, regardless of any state or local laws. (The founders were very wary of individual states and localities setting up their own independant international jurisdictions.)

So Mamdani is full of it. Did he pass his citizenship exam when he became a US citizen? (He must have lied.)

Mamdani is a traitor who needs to be Gitmo’d and be stripped of his citizenship.

There are many examples of the failed Marxist attempts over the history of the ideology. This will be another one.

Mamdani is a CIA asset posing as a Trotskyite.
Next he will start talking about the vanguard party.
