Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Friday sought to create a wall between his leadership of New York City and the private views of his wife, Rama Duwaji, after being asked about her social media activity surrounding the Hamas-led attacks on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
Ms. Duwaji liked posts on Instagram that were supportive of the Palestinian cause immediately after the attacks, in which roughly 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage, according to the Israeli authorities. Israeli military forces responded with military action in Gaza that has killed more than 70,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s health ministry.
The mayor said his wife’s views should not be subject to broad public scrutiny. They were not married when she liked the posts; the couple wed in early 2025, and he did not enter the Democratic primary for mayor until October 2024.
“My wife is the love of my life and she’s also a private person who has held no formal position on my campaign or in my City Hall,” Mr. Mamdani said during an unrelated news conference Friday morning. “I, however, was elected to represent all eight and a half million people in this city, and I believe that it’s my responsibility, because of that role, to answer any questions about my thoughts and my policies and my decisions.”

Eva Braun was a private person too.
If he thinks someone holding public office, especially one as visible as the mayor of NYC, has any aspect of their life that is private, he’s an idiot.
You’re screwed New York.
But they started dating that year, I hear. I’m sure he would have been made aware of her opinions on the matter.
Hence the attraction, apparently.
Rama needs to ring up Cankles.
Does she have man hands?
A she more dangerous than he.

I’m all for the wonderful idea, posted by an astute FReeper, to sign this guy up for the next Ayatollah.
And, take your lovely wife with you.
Buh bye.

Just a nice, private woman who likes to see Jewish babies on fire.
They’re both hard-core muzzies.
And here I was under the impression that Muzzies didn’t like dogs...
Man arms...
Yes, they’re both islamists with no allegiance to America.
