So this is wild. ADL, not a fan of Zoran Mamdani. Apparently the feeling is quite mutual. And they have announced in the wake of his election, this is honestly insane and frankly racist. They've announced an initiative to track and monitor all Mamdani administration policies and appointments to quote unquote protect Jewish New Yorkers. So Greenblatt has gotten so far out over his skis on his anti-Mamdani meltdown freak out that even the Morning Joe crew, Joe Scarborough specifically, are like, dude, you can't be serious about this stuff. Let's go ahead and take a listen to that.

0:36

Look, it's not about politics. This morning we launched a tip line at ADL.org NYC. So if you are Jewish and you experience anti-semitism where you work or where you worship or where you live we want to know so we can track it. And there has been anti-semitism in New York that we've talked about time and time again. This isn't something new because he got elected last night. Will you work with him? Will you sit and talk to him? Will I mean will he

1:04

be a part of this process? He I mean, will he, will you have,

1:05

will he be a part of this process? He has said publicly that he will not work with the ADL and Jonathan Greenblatt. Or when an elderly person is firebombed in Boulder, Colorado, like an 80 year old woman, like someone angry about God's own. We're all shocked and we're all, we all find this important and I'm sure that the the next mayor would say the same thing wouldn't he? You have to ask him. I think yes I don't know. I think you have to I think you look at the fact that he has gone to one high holiday service after another he is

1:41

Not exactly right He was an anti-zionist synagogue, which is like going to the black breakout at CPAC and saying you understand African-Americans. I mean, come on.

1:50

You're saying he hasn't talked to the Jewish community?

1:53

I don't know of a mainstream. Now look, he has been to synagogues. He has Jewish people working for him for sure. But if you look at the biggest institutions that represent Jewish New Yorkers, I have yet to see him engage with any of those.

2:07

Now, my hope is the mayor elect will do so in the days and weeks to come. But in the meantime, but you're not suggesting that he supports the firebombing in Colorado. I never said that.

2:17

I'm not suggesting that he supports the firebombing.

2:20

Joe, I never said that.

2:21

No, no, no. Let me be clear. fire. There's a there's a lot of blurring and landing here, Jonathan and you know, I love you and you're on all the time and we always a fierce defender of yours, but you seem to be like blurring a lot of together and looking into that camera and say call us we're going to make sure that he doesn't

2:42

support.

2:43

I say to Jewish New Yorkers, call us if you feel unsafe. I say to Jewish New Yorkers, call us if you are harassed.

2:50

And so let me be clear.

2:51

Let me clarify.

2:52

How about you calling his team, Mamdani's team? Or how about talking to people who may know him and you? Let's see if that happens. Like Reverend Al, talk to Reverend L. Maybe you guys can get together and have lunch and talk isn't that a more?

3:08

I mean he tries to pull the whole oh my god. This person was firebombed and Joe does not accept the emotional blasphemy He's like yes, that's terrible. I'm sure the mayor would say that's terrible too. Are you? Insinuating that he wouldn't and oh well you'll have to ask him which is him Insinuating that he wouldn't be horrified by you know some Jewish person getting murdered or firebombed or whatever I mean it is deeply disgusting and especially at a time I mean look like there's a whole thing happening on the right about whether Nick Fuentes should be part of the coalition etc and overt like an overt neo-nazi

3:42

Genuine anti-semite these freaking people don't have anything to say about that. But God forbid you have someone who is anti-Zionist and outspoken about it, and also, by the way, a Muslim, total meltdown, massive project to track everything, blah, blah, blah. By the way, I don't know if you saw,

there were just some new stats that came out where they did a deep dive into the alleged anti-Semitism incidents at one particular university and there was one that didn't have to do with Israel. One. And so that's the game with this dude and it's become transparent. Even on that one? Let me look at the details. Right. Let me see the details. Look, with this dude, it's become transparent even to someone like Joe Scarborough who is there saying, listen,

4:22

I've been your defender. And even I'm like, come on, this is getting ridiculous. You are trying to insinuate things that are wildly unfair against this guy, who, you know, the only thing they can ever point to with him is he refused to condemn globalized the Intifada. Not that he says it, not that he, you know, any of that,

4:40

just that he refused to condemn it, that's the closest that they can come. And the free count has been completely deranged.

4:46

Yes, so silly. I mean, look, I will say the ADL spent spending a time on Nick Fuentes and on all the right wing as well. It's just that they also have the Trump administration, I

4:56

wouldn't say in their pocket per se, but they're definitely in a convenient alliance, I think, right now. There are a lot of these types, including Netanyahu, who don't really care about actual antisemitism. So long, in fact, in some ways, genuine antisemitism makes their case for Israel stronger of like, we have to have the state to protect the Jews. So they've been happy to make alliances with, you know, far right, like flirting with genuine antisemitic types.

5:23

So long as they are allowed to have their apartheid, genocidal, ethno-state, that is the one line you can't cross.

5:29

Well, I've said, you know, John Putt-Harris, who's Mr. Commentary, Napo-baby, literally said, "'Trump can say Shylock, because he bombed Iran.'" I was like, okay, so, all right, I mean, well, about antisemitism from you ever again, Mr. Human Egg. But that's part of, that is kind of giving away the game. Greenblatt already gave the game away. This is all just about Israel.

5:51

These people are the wokest people on the planet. Every word he just said reminds me of the same type of BLM bullshit rhetoric, by the way, including pointing to incidents of, oh, there's this one incident over there, and that is what you have, you know,

6:07

that is exactly what you say when you don't condemn it, and people are like, yeah, I obviously condemn that, but that doesn't mean that I should have to like, put on a dashiki and kneel in the middle of a square, and they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, blah, blah, blah, and then now, in this exact same thing, put the next one up on the screen. The ADL has announced a new initiative

6:25

to quote track, monitor policies and personnel appointments of the incoming Mamdani administration to protect Jewish residents across the five boroughs. So the anti-anti-Semites are now making lists of people. Are we tracking this? We are now going to make lists about the people

6:42

who do not align with our politics and then we'll publicize that. I mean, again, this is the same woke tactics that all these people did. All of the lists of the people who don't sign our pledges, they must be fired, they must put their names publicized.

6:56

It's just sickening to watch, honestly, it really is. Especially because nobody in the right spectrum is condemning any of this stuff out of an alliance of convenience because ADL, Miriam Adelson, and others are just chucking money into the Republican Party.

7:12

How do you not look at the current election results and say, yeah, we need to get rid of this shit. People are done with it. The guy who took the podium and said, I'm not going to visit and I won't, you know, cave to your tactics just won the election. Learn from it. Everybody just move on.

7:26

Yeah. The level of just overt Islamophobic bigotry, it honestly is higher than even what I saw after 9-11 because it's out in the open and it was both Democrats and Republicans. I mean, Cuomo from the beginning,

7:40

he was saying, laughing along as someone said that Zoran would be cheering on 9-11 on a radio show, disgusting. He was darkening his skin tone and lengthening his beard. In Mailers, you had Kirsten Gillibrand calling him a jihadist. I mean, the number of people who called him a jihadist. I didn't know she said that. It's wild.

7:58

Yeah. No, I didn't realize. Yes. I mean, it's just absolutely insane. And, you know, this is the, like, from the right, it's just uniform across the board, acting like he's gonna implement some kind of, like, Sharia law.

8:11

Total insanity. And I think, you know, part of his victory was voters just being like, this is absolute nonsense. You know, and it cut against their argument that he's some, you know, he's like a lefty radical communist, but then at the same time he's like Islamist sharia law jihadist. Two things didn't really work

8:28

together and then people see the guy and are like, you guys are out of your minds. Like this is not credible whatsoever what you're trying to insinuate about this man.

8:35

The low IQ Islamophobia is an Israel tactic. It's exactly right. Is there like, what we wanna do is to maintain support for Israel, to make it so that it's like an Abrahamic, you know, we all band together against the Muslims.

8:50

The West against.

8:50

About the West. But then you're like, wait, do Western countries usually have right to rape protests? Is that the same barbaric behavior that you condemn in Islamic country? Because, oh, maybe you're actually kind of the same, and that's actually really not good for you. And so that's what they really run into.

9:07

A lot of it is being pushed by the Randy Fines of the world. It's fascinating. It actually is, is that much of the anti-Israel right, which is probably more predisposed to being explicitly anti-Muslim, is not the one who is pushing this.

9:25

It is actually the capital L, like, liberal right, the people who are pro-Israel, who are the ones who are most embracing this, like, Sharia law coming to New York City stuff, and it's literally just to, it's literally just to protect pro-Israel politics.

9:41

It's totally crazy. It's like Randy Fine and all these other people who are the ones who are pushing it the most. So yeah, I mean, don't fall for it. And also, I really just believe in looking at stuff on their face and it's like, oh, so is Zoran Mamdani

9:55

a Sharia law? The guy whose wife wears a Brass England under a see-through shirt is like, yeah, I just don't really think that's accurate. I don't think people were really buying that. Zoran is from a chitlib family.

10:07

No, he's from a legit leftist family.

10:12

I would say there's not too much of a distinction on the culture, and that's kind of what I'm getting at, is if you look at the milieu of which Zoran and the people come from, amongst Indians, they are one of the most hated subgroups of the high elite.

10:28

I think he even, this is very in the weeds, but the Indians will know what I'm talking about. I think Zoran quoted Nehru in his speech.

10:35

He did, yeah.

10:36

Yeah, so Nehru is probably the biggest villain in India right now under the nationalist government because he's the one who kinda pushed this so-called heterogeneous society, which was explicitly pro-Muslim, whatever, we can get into the debate later.

10:51

But the point is just that by doing that, he's not a Sharia law person. He's just a capital L liberal, quite literally, in a lot of his positions. And looking at him explicitly, it's just so insane, you know, to say that that is what's coming.

11:10

It's like, he probably is much more socially liberal than 99% of the US population. So just to call it by what it is, I don't understand why they can't do it.

11:21

Well, and here's the thing too, is they've, so Bannon and Andy Ogles and Randy Fine are all threatening to denaturalize him. They're trying to introduce bills in Congress also to keep him from being sworn in using the 14th Amendment somehow.

11:38

I mean, I'm not gonna say these things are gonna work out, but you know, I mean, the attack on him personally, and just again, in the most flagrantly racist ways you can imagine, just because he's Muslim, he must be into Sharia law and Jihad, is literally the argument that's being made here, is so repellent and repulsive. And then there's a level of genuine hysteria that I think, I mean, I think some of these people genuinely believe that he's gonna like authorize pogroms

12:06

against Jews in New York City. I just, like, I think they believe that.

12:12

Totally, who are starting-

12:13

For real, they're the people who are the ones who are pushing this.

12:16

Put D3 up on the screen. This is just one sign of the insanity here. So NYC's fire commissioner is resigning from the administration over disagreements with Zoran on Israel. Let me read you that sentence again and tell me if this makes any sense.

12:33

New York City's fire commissioner is resigning over Mamdani's positions on Israel. Person familiar with Tucker's decision said it was influenced by Zoran's Zionist view, by his own Zionist views, and believed that he could not continue to serve under Maimdani. Now, I don't think this individual will be a particularly large loss.

12:53

Apparently, he had no background in firefighting whatsoever. He was some sort of an Eric Adams donor, effectively, and that's how he ends up in the position. But that is so deranged and insane that that is like a sentence and a sentiment that exists. And then the last one, let me just put this up on the screen, this is kind of funny. Everybody was sharing this New York Post headline, which I don't find this poll particularly credible, but whatever. They say there were nearly

13:18

a million New Yorkers ready to flee New York City if Mamdani becomes mayor, possibly igniting the largest exodus in history. Ryan pointed out, you know, if these million people who are supposedly going to pack up and move had just showed up to the polls, they could have voted for someone else and he never would have won, which is why it's not very credible. But I will tell you that, you know, all the New Yorkers that I've talked to have been like, please go. Like, if you said you're gonna leave, please do, because that will actually like,

13:45

That'll drive down.

13:46

That will actually drive down costs and make life easier for us, and we just don't particularly want you here, so bye-bye.

13:51

We'll see. I mean, you guys can watch our segment, I've talked about it. I don't think, like I'm making a bet, and if I could make a a marker down, I don't think it's gonna work. But, you know, we'll see.

14:08

In terms of the people who are leaving, if it's about the right type of people, if the millionaire millennials and Napo babies leave, yeah, it's great, right? But if you have younger families and other people who are middle class. And I was gonna say, those are the people who are leaving who shouldn't be leaving if you allegedly

14:25

are a great place to raise a family. Now, if you have net migration of those types, then yeah, I would say it's a failure. So look, people should be judged on outcomes and we'll see how it works out. Like I said, I don't think much of it's gonna work.

14:38

I think a lot of it's gonna be virtue signaling you know, most of his speech was about Trump and all that, which is smart politically, I would do the same thing, because then it's about a bogeyman who's attacking us and not about whether I'm gonna lower the rent or any of that stuff. Fine, if that's what you guys want for your mayor, be cool.

14:53

I don't think that's fair to say that most of his speech was about Trump. Did you watch it all? Yes, I watched the city with, you know, stripping their funding and sending an eye on all of that. But number two, I mean, I like he definitely centered his campaign promises and the.

15:12

I'm not saying he didn't do that, but there were significant portions which were dedicated to national issues. But I mean, that's my kind of my point. I think you'll be absolutely saved by it. By the fact is, is like, I think that's what a lot of those voters want. I'm not so sure many of them even particularly care

15:27

whether he can even deliver on his promises. Most of politics is about whether somebody is, appears to be fighting for you, but we'll see. I mean, you know, I put my marker down.
