Why is Zohran Mamdani surrounded by antisemites?
New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani might not be an antisemite. He must just have really bad luck that everyone he surrounds himself with and is now empowering as part of his incoming administration happens to be one.
Mamdani’s director of appointments, Catherine Almonte Da Costa, resigned last week after just one day on the job. This happened after it was revealed that she had old social media posts talking about “Money hungry Jews” and how much she hates police officers. Having this person in charge of recruiting members of your administration is probably a bad idea, so Mamdani accepted her resignation.
