Letitia James fumes as Mamdani-backed socialists sweep New York primaries

New York Attorney General Letitia James, a Democrat, bristled at fellow Democrat Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s growing clout after a slate of socialist candidates rode his endorsement to primary victories Tuesday night.

"Some of the candidates that he has supported are individuals who do not understand the politics of New York City, the cultural differences from district to district, who have not been part of the history and the struggle of some of these districts, and are relatively new to the body politic," James, who famously prosecuted President Donald Trump on financial fraud charges, told CNN after the election results came in.

James added that she and other Democratic leaders are "disappointed" in Mamdani.

"[Black and Hispanic voters] don’t like the trick the DSA is trying to pull in Harlem — using the forces of gentrification to try to supplant our agenda and subvert our priorities," one Democratic political operative told the New York Post. "Abolishing the police and releasing every prisoner, even rapists and murderers, isn’t progressive. It’s nuts. It isn’t people with a doorman who have the most to lose; we know it’s us, people of color, who are going to suffer most from the DSA’s reckless agenda."

One would think Madame Leticia would be virtually clicking her heels with Socialist Delight. Maybe the newcomers are not black enough to suit her personal priorities.

They’re from a different faction of extremists.

She ran for Attorney General promising to use her office to take out Donald Trump. What’s more commie or fascist than that?

From the article:
“James, who famously prosecuted President Donald Trump on financial fraud charges, told CNN after the election results came in.”

_________

Infamously, in more like it.

I noticed that the “moderate” NY dems like Goldman who lost to the socialists are awful too.

History comes in repeated cycles.

Its Letitia the fascist against Mamdami the Communist.

Both totalitarians.

Pick your poison ?

This is going to get good.

Bring on the riots.
