New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani found out the hard way that Italian-Americans don’t mess around.
After Little Italy was left off a “New York City Immigrant Enclaves” map, the community appears to have made Mamdani an offer he can’t refuse.
Look:
Mamdani’s decision to leave out Little Italy on his map of enclaves within New York is beyond shameful.
Italian-Americans contribute so much, not just in New York City, but the entire nation.
He also left out Irish and Jewish enclaves.
We all know what’s going on here… https://t.co/hHFUXna0Ea pic.twitter.com/wDLgm763sa

The Italian American Civil Rights League also acknowledged the snub:
We were here before Zohran.
We will be here long after Zohran.

It didn’t take long for Mamdani to agree to add Little Italy, but not before effectively blaming the previous administration:

It is going to be the Italian Americans who save NYC from the Communist takeover of NYC.
The Five Boroughs just woke up.

We are just getting started. We know exactly who Zohran is. And we won’t let up.

Believe me. We know.

They all should have stopped Mamdani from overtaking NYC in the first place. When you don’t vote, it gives the crazy socialists the opening to put in their un-American candidates. Then you have to live with the crap they do to all of you.
