Zohran Mamdani’s Uganda trip isn’t a “celebration”—it’s a taxpayer-funded escape from the accountability he’s spent years dodging. This privileged radical jets off to Kampala while New Yorkers drown in his unworkable rent freezes and activist-driven chaos. Mamdani’s performative “return to Africa” schtick? A deflection tactic straight from his playbook: hide behind identity politics when pressed on his record of failure.

Remember Columbia’s hacked admissions data? He lied about his background to game the system then, and he’s lying about “fighting for the people” now. While Adams rebuilds NYCHA and Cuomo pushes order, Mamdani’s too busy curating his victim narrative to address the city he’s collapsing.

Real leaders don’t need overseas photo ops—they show up and fix the mess they made.
