NEWS ALERT: Mamdani taps disgraced activist who said ‘we can abolish police’ to key transition committee

0

From Fox NewsSocialist New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani recently appointed Tamika Mallory, a defund the police activist and disgraced Women’s March organizer who resigned over allegations of antisemitism, to his transition team.

Mallory, who has repeatedly advocated for defunding the police and eventually abolishing police altogether, was tapped by Mamdani to help lead his Committee on Public Safety, according to a press release published on Brooklyn community site BRIC. She is one of 400 “experts” appointed by Mamdani to the transition team.

In the release, Mamdani said the 400 “esteemed leaders” represent the “top talent” who “will be instrumental to ensuring we hit the ground running on January 1st — and that our results align with the promises we’ve made.”


The report explains that Mallory stepped down from The Women’s March in 2019 after facing backlash for her praise of Nation of Islam leader and antisemite Louis Farrakhan.

She has repeatedly praised Farrakhan, including repeatedly calling him an “honorable minister” and the “greatest of all time because of what he’s done in black communities,” Fox News pointed out.

One X user recently noted that Mallory had posted a photo of herself and Farrakhan together on her Instagram page in 2017.

Author Trisha Posner, founder of Antisemitism Watch, voiced her outrage on Sunday, writing in a post on X, “NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani just appointed Tamika Mallory — who resigned from the Women’s March over antisemitism allegations — to his transition team. This is someone who praised Farrakhan, pushed lies about Jewish involvement in the slave trade, and called Israel’s founding a “human rights crime.” This isn’t “community safety.” It’s mainstreaming hate.”

Over the weekend, Mallory participated in a wild protest against Target called “We Ain’t Buying It.” The protesters say they are boycotting the store, and declared that “their rolling back of DEI policies that hurt black businesses and consumers will not stand without a response.”

The mob of protesters held a huge rally outside a Target store in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, and said they would do it again on Cyber Monday.
