YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Zero Hour Senior Correspondent Sonali Kolhatkar and I discuss the surprising rise of Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist candidate in New York City’s mayoral race. How has he gained such traction against the execrable establishment favorite Andrew Cuomo? We discuss Mamdani’s unapologetic style—which includes embracing his Muslim and Ugandan-Indian heritage (like Hindi campaign ads and rap videos), taking the fight directly to Cuomo's corrupt insider politics—and, most of all, focusing on economic justice policies like rent control and healthcare.

We emphasize key lessons from Mamdani’s campaign, including the power of grassroots mobilization (40,000+ volunteers), embracing a non-traditional political identity, and talking straight to working people.

(If you're an New York City voter, there's still time! Rank Mamdani as your first choice and Brad Lander as your second.)
