Mayor Zohran Mamdani didn’t pick one Jewish person to serve on his judicial screening panel, but he did appoint a lawyer for a domestic terrorist, a Luigi Mangione apologist – and even a former male prostitute.
The social media-loving socialist, a staunch critic of Israel, even reportedly rejected Jewish retired Judge John Leventhal because he had served on the legal team for pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s pal and convicted sex-trafficking accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
But Hizzoner didn’t disqualify prison reform activist Soffiyah Elijah from his 18-member Advisory Committee on the Judiciary, despite the fact she’s represented and rubbed elbows with Weather Underground terrorist Marilyn Buck and infamous cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal.
The picks had critics saying the mayor “spit in the faces of heroes and their families.” […]
Mamdani also appointed former New York American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Jared Trujilo, an admitted former sex worker who has lobbied to decriminalize prostitution and called for dismantling the NYPD Vice Squad as part of an effort to reduce the force’s size, scope and power. …

As Hitler was rising in power that trend was happening, followed by refusal of medical, dental and lawyer licensing boards to renew the credentials of any Jewish professionals.
That can be done quietly in NYC. As when Jews were not allowed to attend graduate schools in New York for decades.
Another chance for me to brazenly say to the 34% of Jewish people who voted for Mamdani:
I told you so.
Well yeah, Mamdani hates Jews, why would he want to be within arms distance of one
That’s the percentage of Jews that would give Israel to Iran TODAY if they could. Trust me, Ive seen those types in Temple. I’ll never forget when Trump during his 1st term proclaimed that Jerusalem was the capitol of Israel and that is where the embassy would be located. That Saturday I went to Temple, I thought that people there would be thrilled, nah, they were PISSED, saying how this would ruin any chances to having “Peace” please, peace with jackasses who want them dead, what idiots
About 1 in 8 residents of NYC are Jewish, which would suggest that at least 2 members should have been Jewish to have somewhat proportionate representation; as for lawyers, somewhere between 35% and 50% of lawyers in NYC (according to various estimates) are Jewish, suggesting that somewhere between 6 and 9 members should be Jewish to have proportionate representation. That there are literally zero doesn’t merely suggest a motivation, it confirms it.
Phuck this Watermelon - Moslem on the outside, Communist on the inside. He’s utter poison - NYC deserves him, but the rest of us don’t.
Mamdani is just laying the groundwork for kicking all muslims out of the country in the “Holy Crusades II”. Europe is lost, but the USA is not.
“Another chance for me to brazenly say to the 34% of Jewish people who voted for Mamdani:
I told you so.”
I can’t wait to see what he does for 9/11.
Is it required to appoint a Jew?
Why not required to appoint a Christian?
What about a Pastafarian, or a NAMBLA member?
The group he selects reveals who he is.
Don’t bitch about his appointments at this late stage.
Confront your fellow Citizens for electing the POS in the first place.
Yer gonna get what you voted for.
It does put the lie to the claims of Mamdani’s own legal counsel that these appointments are “a truly representative cross-section” of NYC’s legal profession. There aren’t any requirements to do so, either way.
While people worry about the 33% of the 10% of NYC voters who are Jewish and voted for Mamdani (so 3.3% of the vote), I worried about the 58% of Gentiles who voted for Mamdani.
Worrying about the Jewish vote, even in NYC, seems to be majoring in the minors.
