Over a hundred thousand good people signed a petition to keep jihad Mamdani away. So of course he came and shit on the ceremony.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were caught yukking it up during the somber reading of 9/11 victims at Ground Zero during the 25th anniversary service Friday.
That’s a really long hug between AOC and Mamdani.

The New York City Democratic Socialists of America darlings appeared all smiles in a live feed of the ceremony, interspersed with shots of a man cradling his head in his arms and bawling his eyes out while friends and family read out the names of their departed loved ones from the podium.

ADVERTISEMENTPointed reactions online to the apparent show of disrespect at the site where thousands of Americans were murdered by terrorists were quick to emerge.
“Why the f–k are these two laughing?!?” Meghan McCain, former “The View” host and daughter of late GOP Sen. John McCain, wrote on X.
“How the hell do you laugh while the names of those murdered on 9/11 are being read aloud?
“After thousands of families of victims of terror beg Mamdani not to show up, he stands there and laughs while families weep. This is NYC’s Mayor,” scolded Brooklyn Republican Councilwoman Inna Vernikov.
One insider told The Post that the ungraceful scene unfolded after Mamdani was notably left standing alone once Gov. Kathy Hochul, state Attorney General Letitia James and and Sen. Chuck Schumer shuffled out mid-ceremony.
“Nobody wanted to be by him,” the source said. “It was awkward.”
