Zohran Mamdani disses Catholics by breaking decades of tradition and skipping archbishop ceremony
NY Post ^ | 02/9/2026 | Craig McCarthy, Carl Campanile and Chris Nesi

Mayor Zohran Mamdani committed a cardinal sin last week by dissing millions of area Catholics as the first city mayor in nearly 100 years — and possibly ever — to skip the local archbishop’s installation.

Ronald Hicks, 58, on Friday became the 11th archbishop of the New York Archdiocese since 1850, accepting the reins of power from Cardinal Timothy Dolan at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in a packed historic ceremony steeped in ritual.

One of the event’s traditions — dating back to at least 1939, when then-New York City Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia attended the installation of famous top clergyman Francis Spellman — had been the attendance of the Big Apple’s sitting mayor.

At least until this year, when Mamdani decided he had better things to do than help honor the new leader of one of the largest groups of Catholics in the country — including hundreds of thousands of his own constituents.

Mamdani is a Marxist and a Muslim. What do you expect?

They’ve got an anti America, anti Christ raghead and anybody’s surprised he doesn’t endorse Catholicism? They definitely swallow the blue pill.

And this surprises anyone? He is an unabashed Muhammadan supremacist.

I don’t know about the NYCers that voted for him, but as an “outstater” I got just just what was expected, except that I don’t have to put up with him directly. Hopefully by now the people of NYC realize what a huge mistake they voted in. I’m not a Catholic, either, but would be extremely upset by what Momdani did/didn’t do anyway.

I am not surprised that a majority of New Yorkers who could be bothered to vote, voted for this piece of anti-American mohammedan filth.

I am not surprised that an anti-American mohammedan piece of filth acted the part.

Well, Pope Leo is not getting my vote on any count. Not that it matters as we don’t think the same way in the least.

Islam conquers and subjugates, that is just the way it has always been. It will only get worse for non-muslim New Yorkers.

Mamdani became a naturalized USA citizen in 2018.

He was born in Uganda Africa to MooseLimb parents. They don’t come to America to assimilate. The come to conquer and replace infidels (non-Muslims). This is happening right now, in real time. The MooseLimb hordes are coming every year by the millions. Look at Somalia Minnesota. That is the future.

The Archbishop will put a prayer room in St. Patrick’s to say he’s sorry to Mamdummy for being Catholic.

WELL DUH!!! Do you understand we're in spiritual warfare???

"MUSLIMS" ....A mass of people who carry a "holy" book that says to murder all Jews and Christians who won't bow to their prophet.

And now we're flooding them into our country and even putting them into our government!

Can American citizens be more stupid or are we trying to destroy ourselves ???

BTW - That first Muslim president Obama said he "had a plan for America" .... and it was NOT for our good!

The muslim heard the call to prayer five times and couldn’t make it.

Doesn’t islam mean “to submit”?
