Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani boasted he was a “proud democratic socialist” Sunday as he arrogantly dismissed congressional Republicans’ threats to revoke his citizenship over his naturalization paperwork.
Mamdani, 34, denied being a communist after opponents claimed he lied by not disclosing on his 2018 citizenship forms that he was a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.

Citizenship should mean something, and Zohran is a communist no matter what he calls himself.
Mamdani and the DSA lie about what they are:
“No matter how many times these Republican Congress members or the president of this country calls me a communist, it doesn’t make it true.” Mamdani told The Post Sunday, adding it was “telling” that DC Republicans were more concerned about deporting him than ending the ongoing government shutdown.
“I’m proud to be a democratic socialist,” he added.
Democrat Socialists are to the left of the Communist Party USA.
The Republicans have claimed the DSA is a communist organization, and that Mamdani’s membership could have disqualified him from citizenship — citing congressional rules that categorize communism as part of a totalitarian umbrella and can disqualify followers from becoming US citizens.
They aren’t wrong, but their lies about what they are would probably hold and the GOP would lose, regardless of the evidence.
