Republicans aren't funding the federal government so one of them idiotically suggesting to de-fund NYC because they elected a Muslim to be mayor should come as no surprise. Americans should expect to see a barrage of attacks from Islamophobes, Republicans, CBS News, Newsmax, and Faux News against Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani because he gives voice to Palestinians being ethnically cleansed in Gaza and other vulnerable people. Muslims make up a scant 1.34% of the US population, but AIPAC proxies relentlessly demonize and smear them in the media, movies, and news to ensure US financial, military, and political support remains firm for Israel and that no American should ever empathize with Muslims, Arabs, and specifically Palestinians. Inexplicably, AIPAC recipient Buddy Carter (R-GA) refuses to sign a pledge to release the lurid Jeffrey Epstein files. Links: Newsmax TV Tumor; Islamophobic Republican.
Note that US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) did not campaign for nor did he endorse fellow Democrat Zohran Mamdani. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) accused AIPAC of illegal election interference in the US (The Hill, 8/8/2025).

Former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre accurately calls out Democrats who did not support fellow Zohran Mamdani.
Source: Ex-WH Press Secy calls it perfectly.
Last week white bread over-the-hill dinosaur James Carville told Karine to finish her book tour and then "STFU."
Uh-huh.
If Democrats want to win in national elections, they had better listen to the Karine Jean-Pierres of the world and not follow in Hubert Humphrey's 1968 or Kamala Harris' 2024 footsteps by supporting warmongers like Nguyen Van Thieu or Benjamin Netanyahu.
The same, racist, bigoted, supremacist shtick in NYC.
Today it is Rob Finnerty, 175 years ago it was the Know Nothings and black hat gangs featuring such xenophobic luminaries as Bill "The Butcher" Poole (devastating "America-first" monologue courtesy of Daniel Day-Lewis).
Warmonger Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), who said that he supports attacking Nigeria, a country of 250 million people on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, is suffering from "ZDS" (Zohran Derangement Syndrome):
"I'm a traditionalist and, you know, I come up here, 60 votes, hey, that sounds great, but we're in a different country, Steve. This is a different time. We just saw what happened in New York. We lost New York. It will be completely Muslim in three or four years. That's what they want. They're gonna have everything free there for them and they're just going to spread throughout the country. I think we oughta pack him up and send him home. My God, we do not need that anywhere in this country, especially New York. You know, it's" what a great city that was. But he's gonna manage to bring it all the way down."

Islamophobic Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) voted to BLOCK releasing the lurid Jeffrey Epstein files.
