New York City mayor-elect Zohran <\/a>Mamdani <\/a>is facing heat from two New York lawmakers who spoke to Fox News Digital after a report showing a member of his transition team espoused vitriolic anti-Israel sentiments under the backdrop of Mamdani’s promises to combat antisemitism as mayor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hassaan Chaudhary, according to a\u00a0New York Post report<\/u><\/a> on Sunday, has a social media presence littered with anti-Israel posts, including calling the country “barbaric,” using the term “Jew” as a slur, and praising Iran\u2019s former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.<\/p>\n

Chaudhary, who listed himself as a political director for Mamdani\u2019s transition team, apologized for the remarks, saying the decade-old posts don\u2019t represent his current views and that he looks back on them with “regret.”<\/p>\n

However, two lawmakers who spoke to Fox News Digital blasted Mamdani\u2019s association with Chaudhary and warned that it shows the socialist mayor-elect is not being serious when he pledges to combat antisemitism in New York City.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Let\u2019s be transparent \u2014 this isn\u2019t some innocent staffing mistake,” New York Republican Assemblyman Jake Blumencranz told Fox News Digital. “This is who Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani is and what his transition team\/incoming administration stands for.”<\/p>\n

“When the incoming Mayor surrounds himself with someone who uses language about Jews reminiscent of the 1930s, praises Ahmadinejad, and holds other abhorrent views, that\u2019s not a red flag \u2014 that\u2019s a flashing siren. Extremism isn\u2019t a fringe element of Zohran Mamdani\u2019s team; it\u2019s the foundation he\u2019s building\/destroying City Hall on.”<\/p>\n

A Mamdani spokesperson told the New York Post that Chaudhary is a Muslim outreach director and not a political director, but did not say whether he would be fired.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“These comments from over a decade ago are reprehensible and in no way reflect the views of the mayor-elect or this transition,” a Mamdani spokesperson told Fox News Digital. “The mayor-elect has made this clear internally and consistently during the campaign and transition.”<\/p>\n

Inna Vernikov, a Republican New York City councilwoman, told Fox News Digital the situation shows that “useful idiots on the hard left\u00a0have yet to realize that they\u2019re just small pawns in a big and dangerous game.”<\/p>\n

Vernikov added, “The same agitators screaming in defense of Hamas would be thrown off a roof for their various gender identities. Zohran needs to get one thing clear: he is no longer a protester. He now has a city of 8 million to govern.”<\/p>\n

Mamdani faced heated criticism on the campaign trail for his\u00a0long track record<\/u><\/a> of criticizing Israel, dating back to his days in college, where he started his school\u2019s Students for Justice in Palestine chapter. Additionally, hundreds of rabbis\u00a0signed onto a letter<\/u><\/a> in the weeks before the election denouncing his campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite the outrage, Mamdani cruised to an election victory and has repeatedly promised to represent all New Yorkers, including the massive Jewish community in the city.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We will build a City Hall that stands steadfast alongside Jewish New Yorkers and does not waver in the fight against the scourge of antisemitism,” Mamdani said on election night, adding the next day that he takes the issue of antisemitism “incredibly seriously.”<\/p>\n

Still, Blumencranz told Fox News Digital that “personnel is policy” and that New Yorkers “better buckle up” if these are the type of people being recruited in the transition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“You don\u2019t \u2018accidentally\u2019 hire a person who has spent years spewing this kind of hate,” Blumencranz told Fox News Digital. “The fact that Mamdani hasn\u2019t immediately removed him tells every New Yorker exactly what kind of administration we\u2019re about to get \u2014 one where bigotry is tolerated, where antisemitism is normalized, and where the most hateful voices are welcomed into the Gracie Mansion and City Hall.”<\/p>\n

The Mamdani team did not comment on Chaudhary’s current employment status.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Every resident of this city, Jewish or not, should be alarmed,” Blumencranz said. “This is dangerous, it\u2019s divisive, and it\u2019s a disgrace.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
