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.

    I got called a communist on Blue sky recently and I thought it was hilarious because there’s nothing that would indicate that I’m a communist from anything I’ve ever said in my entire life, they just like to throw around insults cuz they don’t know any better and they have no idea what they’re talking about most of the time

      I was called a communist at work a few years ago because I said, factually, that a lot of the memes about AOC being dumb were of entirely fabricated quotes.
