In the runup to his election, Mamdani vowed to discontinue the sweeps of homeless encampments (City).
the grim toll of homeless deaths, now 16 and counting, has already shattered any illusion of a honeymoon. This is Mamdani’s baptism by tragedy, the 34-year-old nepo baby’s abrupt introduction to reality. The mirror tells the story: the crisis exposes his arrogance.
For forty years, every mayor understood the same hard truth — when temperatures drop, the city must act. Following Ed Koch’s lead, administrations required the homeless to take shelter or moved them indoors when they could not decide for themselves. As former mayor Rudy Giuliani put it: “The policy of NYC before, during, and after I was Mayor was to remove homeless from the streets when it approached freezing. The incumbent Mayor has changed that policy.”
Now up to 16 homeless died because Mamdani is unqualified and dumb. pic.twitter.com/wBXjaXIGYo

ABC: This week, thirteen people were found dead on the streets of New York City, despite the Code Blue issued by city leadership (ABC).
Manhattan: East 60th Street & 2nd Avenue, New York City is freezing alive. While @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani pretends everything is “under control,” homeless people are literally freezing for warmth over steam manholes for survival. Since the beginning of the snow storm, at least… pic.twitter.com/e7aoLlH1dl

Michael Goodwin argues that Mamdani ought to open the door of Gracie Mansion: Even if he doesn’t open Gracie’s doors, the horrifying homeless deaths, 16 at last count, are just part of Mamdani’s baptism by tragedy and circumstance. Enough so that his first month in office can fairly be called the 34-year-old nepo baby’s introduction to the real world. His political honeymoon was over before it started. A look in the mirror would reveal the culprit. The homeless deaths are especially revealing of his arrogance. Every mayor in the last 40 years has wisely adopted some version of Ed Koch’s policy that the city require people to take shelter, or move them indoors, when they refused or were incapable of making the decision for themselves. As one of those mayors, Rudy Giuliani, writes on X, “The policy of NYC before, during, and after I was Mayor was to remove homeless from the streets when it approached freezing. The incumbent Mayor has changed that policy” (New York Post).
