Republicans are calling to revoke Mamdani’s citizenship and deport him

Republicans are calling on President Donald Trump’s administration to revoke Zohran Mamdani’s citizenship and deport him from the country as the likely Democratic nominee for New York City’s next mayor endures a torrent of Islamophobic bigotry. The 33-year-old democratic socialist declared victory in the primary after former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo conceded the race on Tuesday evening. The New York Young Republican Club reacted to the primary results with a “call to action” on X. “The radical Zohran Mamdani cannot be allowed to destroy our beloved city of New York,” the group wrote. The group urged the president to invoke the Red Scare-era Communist Control Act to yank Mamdani’s citizenship and “promptly deport him.”

The club called on White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller and Trump border czar Tom Homan to take action. “The time for action is now,” the group wrote. “New York is counting on you.” Following Mamdani’s victory, Miller claimed New York City is the “clearest warning yet of what happens to a society when it fails to control migration.” “The entire Democrat party is lining up behind the diehard socialist who wants to end all immigration enforcement and abolish the prison system entirely,” he added. Republican Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee referred to Mamdani as “little Muhammad” and said he’s “an antisemitic, socialist, communist who will destroy the great City of New York.”

“He needs to be DEPORTED. Which is why I am calling for him to be subject to denaturalization proceedings,” he added. Mamdani, who could become the city’s first Muslim and Indian-American mayor, won one of the first major Democratic primaries since the start of Trump’s second stint in the White House. His platform has largely focused on a growing affordability crisis, with plans for universal childcare, free buses, and a freeze on rent increases in rent-controlled units.

The administration claims Mamdani’s victory is the result of uncontrolled immigration as it pushes a mass deportation agenda. The NYYRC, founded in 1911, is a political and social club for New York Republicans between the ages of 18 and 40. Mamdani, born in Uganda in 1991, moved to New York along with his family at the age of seven in 1998 and became a naturalized U.S. citizen two decades later in 2018. The Communist Control Act was signed into law by President Dwight Eisenhower in 1954 during the Cold War. The legislation outlawed, in theory, the Communist Party in the United States and prohibited communists from attaining certain positions. But it was rarely enforced and faced a litany of legal challenges as a relic of the McCarthyism era.

Mamdani’s victory had some prominent Republicans cheering on the return of Sen. Joseph McCarthy’s Un-American Activities Committee. “New York City is on the verge of electing a socialist for mayor,” Sen. Mike Collins wrote. “Might be time to bring back the committee.” Trump also slammed Mamdani on Truth Social on Wednesday, calling him a “Communist Lunatic.” Incumbent New York Mayor Eric Adams is set to run as an independent in November’s general election after he faced corruption charges, which the Department of Justice subsequently dropped. Adams, who has rejected all allegations of wrongdoing, has faced accusations from Democrats of a quid pro quo with the Trump administration to facilitate its immigration agenda.

The group Republicans for Renewal responded to NYYRC’s “call to action,” saying that “communist radical Zohran Mamdani should be remigrated as soon as possible.” Republican New York councilwoman Vickie Paladini wrote on June 2 that it would be “insane” for voters to elect someone who hasn’t been a citizen for more than 10 years, “much less a radical leftist who actually hates everything about the country and is here specifically to undermine everything we've ever been about. “Deport,” she said.

A spokesperson for the councilwoman subsequently added that she “stands by this statement” and accused the state assemblyman of being eligible for removal from the country “due to his involvement in multiple antisemitic and far-left organizations in college,” according to Newsweek. Mamdani has repeatedly rejected allegations of antisemitism against him and has denounced rising acts of antisemitic abuse. He struck back at Paladino, writing that like nearly 40 percent of New Yorkers, “I wasn’t born in this country.” “I moved here at age 7. It's my home. And I’m proud to be a citizen, which means standing up for our Constitution,” he added. “Councilmember Paladino might consider reading it.”

College students, agitators among 86 arrested at rowdy NYC anti-ICE protest!

So as the cops cuffed 86 demonstrators at a rowdy anti-ICE rally in Lower Manhattan Tuesday, among the morons was the daughter of a Moroccan actor, a self-proclaimed poet from an upscale college and a coed whose family owns a posh home in the Hampton's. “My sense is, the vast majority of the 2,500 people that were there, were there to protest peacefully,” NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said on Fox 5 News. “There was a smaller group of a few hundred where we did have to make arrests. Some of them were looking for trouble.” The protest in Foley Square against deportation arrests by federal immigration agents began peacefully but grew increasingly violent shortly after 5 p.m., with the mob hurling bottles at cops and throwing traffic cones into traffic, an NYPD spokesperson said.

Of the 86 who were charged, 52 were issued summonses for disorderly conduct and other minor charges, while 34 were arrested and charged with more serious crimes, including felony assault. Among those busted was Vega Gullette, a 19-year-old student at Sarah Lawrence College in Yonkers who describes herself as “a Moroccan-American writer, artist, and lover of junk.” The teen, who was charged with attempted assault in the second-degree and obstructing government administration, is the daughter of Sean Gullette, an actor, screenwriter and director whose credits include the Darren Aronofsky films “Requiem for a Dream” and “Pi.”

We also know that Sean Gullette had a group of friends show up to her court hearing Wednesday in a show of support, some of whom draped themselves in keffiyehs, which are associated with pro-Palestine political movements. Also among those charged was Rachel Schreiber, 22, of Brooklyn, who is facing resisting arrest, reckless endangerment and attempted assault charges in the melee. She smiled when she saw the large group of friends, some of whom wore masks, who showed up for her hearing in Manhattan criminal court. “So many,” she said to herself while she walked out of the courtroom. Records show her parents own a $3 million home in West Hampton Beach.

“I’m not giving any reaction,” her mother told The Post Wednesday. “I’m not ready to talk about this with the press.” Some of the pinched protesters are no strangers to Big Apple demonstrations. Robert Mills, 40, who was charged with reckless endangerment and issued a disorderly conduct citation in Tuesday’s scuffle, was charged with obstructing governmental administration in April during an anti-Israeli protest in Brooklyn, the Jewish News Syndicate reported. Tabitha Howell, 40 who was cited for disorderly conduct was among those injured when a crazed Queens woman drove into a Manhattan Black Lives matter protest in 2020.

“It’s one thing to face physical recovery,” Howell, who said she suffered five bulging discs in her back and a traumatic brain injury in the incident, told The Post at the time. “It’s another to try to process what happened mentally and emotionally.” Meanwhile, Tisch and Mayor Eric Adams gave assurances this week that the city will not devolve in to chaos like Los Angeles, where ICE agents sparked outbreaks of violence that required the National Guard to step in to try to restore peace.

“Watching what was going on in California, I spent the weekend on the phone with our federal partners in New York City the head of the FBI in New York, federal protective services, homeland security investigations,” Tisch told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe. 

They shouldn’t have trouble making bail... Of course not since this is all being paid for by people in the shadows who like always pay for the deeds of the evil they want to do. This is planned and NOT organic.

NYC Anti-ICE protesters Arrested!

Look all these morons sticking up for ILLEGAL activity.. Such moronic behavior from these libtards.

Protesters took to the streets of lower Manhattan to denounce and protest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Thursday evening Feb. 13, a group of about 400 protesters marched from the ICE building at Federal Plaza near Foley Square to the ICE Officer at West Houston and Vertex Street in SoHo. The protest came hours after Mayor Eric Adams met with President Donald Trump’s Border Czar Tom Homan. 

The meeting resulted in the city reopening the ICE facility at the Rikers Island jail complex. The group was seen carrying several banners and signs in English and Spanish, shouting, “Mayor Eric Adams must go; he doesn’t care about immigrant communities.” One protester, Jason Darlugo of Nicaragua, told the crowd while fighting back tears, “I came here to give my family a better chance at life.” 

NYPD Officers on foot patrol, motorcycles, and bicycles kept up with the group and attempted to cut the group route off several times. Some protesters attempted to agitate the officers. Six protesters were arrested and taken into police custody during the protest, though at this time, the NYPD could not confirm further details.

The group ended the march with, “Thank you for taking a stand against Donald Trump, I.C.E., and Mayor Eric Adams on this pivotal day in New York and American history.” Over the past few weeks since President Donald Trump was sworn in, ICE raids have been taking place in New York City, one of the more notable raids taking place in the Bronx. In that particular raid, Trump’s Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was on site and there were 20 reported arrests.

In response to the raids, NYPD brass claimed that the department is only working with ICE to arrest those who have committed a crime. The Adams administration also noted in a recent memo that city employees, including those in public schools and hospitals, should allow federal immigration authorities to search city property or hand them requested information, even without a warrant, particularly if they feel threatened. Adams faced backlash for that memo, with immigration leaders and politicians rallying outside City Hall last week to denounce the directive.
