Somewhere last night in New York City, a single mother and her children slept at a homeless shelter because you, assemblyman @ZohranKMamdani are occupying her rent controlled apartment.
You grew up rich and married an even wealthier woman. You’ve had weddings on 3 continents. You own property in LGTBQIA+ murderous Uganda. You make $142,000 a year plus stipends, and your wife works too, meaning you together likely make well over $200,000. No matter which way you cut it: Zohran Mamdani is a rich person. You are actually very rich.
Yet you and your wife pay $2,300 a month, as you have bragged, for a nice apartment in Astoria. That should be housing for someone who needs it.
We are in the middle of a historic affordability crisis. Millions of low income New Yorkers need this apartment and an apartment like it. Yet your apartment remains rented to rich people who don’t need it.
Today, I am calling on you to move out immediately and give your affordable housing back to an unhoused family who need it. Leaders must show moral clarity. Time to move out.
Democrats don't even know what morals are, much less showing moral clarity.
Who doesn’t, at least partly, enjoy a cat fight?
Boom. Go Cuomo. Stop the Mo.
Andy pickin’ on rich RATS. Is that even legal?
Channeling dear old dad’s campaign skills with “Vote for Cuomo, not the Homo!”
Only in NYC do low-income people rent an apartment for $2300 a month!
Meanwhile, Zorhan Mamdani lives in a rent-stabilized 1-bedroom apartment in Astoria, Queens, by his own account paying a monthly rent in the low $2,000s (as of a 2019 tweet).And, his mother lives in a $2 million luxury loft in Chelsea, the family owns a 4 acre compound in the wealthiest neighborhood near the Ugandan capital with military-style security, and another family home in Delhi, India.
Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams must use the lavish wedding to ask:
- How he qualified for rent-stabilized housing given his family's documented wealth; when did he obtain the apartment?
- What were his income/assets at that time?
- Is he the primary leaseholder, or did his now-wife have the apartment first?
The candidates must ask the voters whether if it is appropriate for someone with access to family properties worth $2+ million to occupy subsidized housing in New York City?
And then close the deal by asking the voters if they want to pay taxes for free busing and free grocery stores while the mayor is living in subsidized housing when his family is owns millions of dollars of property internationally?

Madmandami. A great name for an Ugandan thug. I think we shall call him Dada after his idol, Idi Amin.
Mamdani: (satire) No reason to sleep in a shelter. Why she just have her parents wire them a few thousand dollars and put them up in a fine hotel until they find a great apartment? That’s what I’d do.
Mamdani is going to move into Gracie Mansion and still hang on to his rent-controlled apartment in Astoria, isn’t he?
Chicago’s budget shortfall puts spotlight on Mamdani’s ‘socialism’ agenda for New York City
I would be long gone broke if I had to pay out that much for a house. That’s more than I make. Of course don’t live in NYC & hopefully don’t ever even visit there. That is totally absurd. Why should Mamdavi be there. The situation would help me make up my mind at election time.
Oh cry me a river Andrew. Did you give a $hit about that single mother when you and your father closed multiple psych centers around the State and tossed those nut cases on the street? Did you give a $hit about anyone when those same nut cases were committing horrendous crimes in the State, and they ended up in New York State's prisons? Did you give a $hit for anyone, when you tossed inmates out of your prisons during Covid? And did you really give a $hit when you and now Kathy Hochul closed dozens of the State's prisons, tossed more inmates into the streets, and screwed up the lives of multiple employees who were transferred clear across the State from where they lived, or lost their jobs entirely? Did you give a $hit when criminals were caught and released without bail, only to commit more crimes, never being held accountable? All this $hit and more happened under your watch, so don't claim you give a $hit about this mother and her children. You turned all New Yorkers into potential victims of the animals you put on the street.
"Charles Rangel, a prominent former RAT U.S. Representative, lived in four rent-controlled apartments in New York City. This arrangement was part of his legal and ethical scrutiny, as he was found guilty of violating House ethics rules and received a censure from the House. Rangel's use of these apartments as campaign offices and his subsequent censure highlight the complexities of political conduct and the legal implications of such arrangements. He also never paid tax on the money he earned by renting out his Dominican Republic villa. It's that Democrat privilege.
Yes. Cuomo can see where all this is going, but too little, too late.
I feel sort of bad for the people of NYC, but you get what you vote for, although I still have a hard time seeing NYC as a future Detroit.
Paying a dollar for a house in Manhattan or Queens is coming.
Trump should get Curtis Sliwa a job. So he’ll drop out.
Too late now, Mamdani’s got this.
Embrace the suck, New York.
