From Fox News: Palestinian-American activist Linda Sarsour issued a thinly veiled warning Saturday night to New York City mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani, saying she will “hold Zohran accountable” to fulfill campaign promises, including dismantling an NYPD unit that polices terrorism threats, protests and riots.
In a livestream on Instagram, obtained by Fox News Digital, Sarsour told her followers that electing Mamdani doesn’t mean that the network that supports him will “let him do whatever the hell he wants when he gets to City Hall.”
“I just want you all to know I’m not going to work for the Zohran administration,” Sarsour said. “I’m not going to work in City Hall, because, guess what? There gotta be people like me willing to stay outside.”
“Our friends on the inside need people on the outside to hold them accountable. To say, ‘We see you. We’re paying attention.’”
The report explains that Sarsour and Mamdani are both members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and he also joined the board of the Muslim Democratic Club of New York, which Sarsour co-founded.
Sarsour, a Palestinian-American who previously co-founded the radical Women’s March group, has served as a political mentor to Mamdani.
Sarsour declared in her Instagram livestream that if Mamdani doesn’t meet expectations, she will let him know about it.
She said she wasn’t happy when Mamdani promised to keep the current NYPD commissioner Jessica Tisch in her position, although Mamdani did say he would expect Tisch to follow his orders, including disbanding the NYPD’s elite Strategic Response Group, which polices terrorism threats, protests and riots.
And Sarsour clearly expects Mamdani to follow HER orders.
