The New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) has called on the federal government to strip Zohran Mamdani of his citizenship and deport him.

On Tuesday evening, Mamdani, a 33-year-old self-described democratic socialist, declared victory over Andrew Cuomo, former governor of the state of New York, in the Democratic primary for the 2025 New York mayoral election.

The outcome, one of the first major Democratic primaries since Donald Trump returned to office, is being considered as a barometer for the party’s potential recalibration nationally, at a time when it remains ideologically divided about its future.

    You really think a handful of local cops are going to get into a firefight with federal agents? This isn’t the movies. They’re not going to just see a handful of local cops and say “Drat! Foiled again!” while twirling their evil mustaches.

    There’s only a handful of ways that’s going to go down.

    1. A bunch of local cops end up dead.
    2. A bunch of local cops end up in jail for crimes ranging from interfering with the duties of federal officers to murder of federal officers.

      You’re forgetting the most likely option: 3. The local cops simply hand him over to the feds. Cops are not your fucking friends I don’t know how much clearer it can get at this point.
