Mamdani Team Member’s Full-Blown Public Meltdown Only Scratching The Surface
Cea Weaver, the new tenant advocate appointed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, was photographed collapsing in front of her building on Wednesday.
Weaver, 37 years old, “quickly went back inside after being questioned about the $1.6 million home her mother owns in Nashville, Tennessee,” according to the New York Post. What’s so bad about homeownership? I’ll let Weaver explain.
“Private property, including any type of property, ESPECIALLY, is a weapon of white supremacy,” Weaver said in a 2019 article, according to the New York Post. (RELATED: Mamdani Quietly Cripples Biggest Potential Palliative for His Crazy Ideas)
“There is no such thing as a ‘good’ gentrifier, only people who actively work on projects to dismantle white supremacy and capitalism and others who do not,” she said in a 2018 article, according to the New York Post.

In another 2018 article, Weaver wrote that “homeownership is a failed, racist public policy” and demanded that politicians “impoverish the *white* middle class.” said The telegraph. Weaver appears to be white herself. I guess she’s trying to be “one of the good ones” in his eyes companion Members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).
Other uncovered remarks from Weaver include “more white men in power” and a call to “seize private property,” according to The Telegraph.
“If you don’t believe in the sacred right of government to seize private property, IT’S GONE,” Weaver said in a 2017 article, according to UnHerd. I guess “IT’S OVER” for me and any reasonable person, whatever that means.
“This activist has long been polarizing,” the New York Times (NYT) said of Weaver. “Mamdani is by his side.
Let’s play everyone’s favorite game: “What if the roles were reversed?” » Insert any race, except white, in the following statement: “More [x] men in power. How about: “Impoverish the [x] middle class.” Is it uncharitable to assume that the New York Times would choose an adjective slightly stronger than “polarizing”?
“We can say, hey, uh — you know — you’re not maintaining this building, and we’re New York City.
We have an interest in making sure that the housing is well maintained, and – and we’re going to take this building away from you.

In fact, it’s worse than that. The New York Times appears to have changed the first sentence of its original headline, which read: “Cea Weaver has long been a firebrand. Mamdani is by his side. Oh, I understand! She is just passionate! She’s 37 years old! Won’t someone feel sorry for her?
“Regrettable comments from years ago do not change what has always been clear: my commitment to making housing affordable and fair for New York City renters,” Weaver said in a statement to the New York Times.
“We made the decision to have Cea Weaver serve as Executive Director of the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants, to continue the work she has done to protect tenants across the city, and we were already seeing the results of that work. » Mamdani told reporters on Tuesday, according to the New York Post.
“I know Cea a little and I have always found her impressive and serious. I see one of his regrettable tweets was a 2018 QT of one of mine, probably also regrettable but long since deleted. As millennials rise to political power, we’ll need a blanket amnesty for bad old tweets. » job writer David Klion in recent days.
Generally, the minimum condition for rectifying regrets is to apologize to the people who were hurt. People like Klion suggesting amnesty is a bit absurd.
“Cancel culture isn’t real, but I wish it was, as I think about the likely next actions of everyone who has worked in this administration,” Klion said. wrote in a 2020 article.
Of course, you might view his most recent statement as a sign of a change of heart, but a glance at the political winds suggests that’s not the most likely case. The left’s insane bullshit—pronoun rituals, land acknowledgments, deep and open hatred of white people—is no longer as politically unassailable as it was in 2020. Therefore, leftists are suddenly forced to seek amnesty.
Weaver is a despicable mix of aggression and fragility, seemingly content to advocate for the most radical policies online, but prone to bursting into tears when questioned about that advocacy. (RELATED: Mamdani’s socialist agenda begins slow-motion implosion)
In 2016, Mamdani’s nominations director wrote: “It’s important for white people to feel defeated. »
In 2018, his housing advisor wrote: “Impoverishing the *white* middle class.”

Old statements on social media seem to be a recurring problem within the Mamdani team.
Mamdani named Catherine Almonte Da Costa director of appointments in December. Da Costa offered him resignation “after only one day of work” following uncovered comments on social networks, according to Policy.
The statements included remarks such as “Woo! Promoted to the office upstairs today! Working alongside these rich Jews.” according to the Judge’s Street Journal. Another post reportedly read: “Money hungry Jews, smh[.]»
“As a mother of Jewish children, I feel a deep sense of sadness and remorse for the harm these words have caused,” Da Costa said in a statement, according to Politico. “As this has become a distraction from the work at hand, I have offered my resignation.”
“These comments were reprehensible. She expressed a deep sense of remorse. She offered to resign, and I accepted.» Mamdani said, according to ABC7 Eyewitness News.
DaCosta did not appear to apologize for his remarks about white people.
“It’s important for white people to feel defeated,” she wrote after Donald Trump’s first presidential victory, according to Judge Street Journal.
“For so long, power has been in the hands of men and/or white people. It has brought us ruin,” DaCosta wrote in January 2020, according to the Judge Street Journal.
DaCosta made too many disparaging remarks about white people to include here, as the Judge Street Journal captured in pages of screenshots.
A spokesperson for Mamdani claimed DaCosta’s tweets fell through the cracks, saying in a statement: “This unacceptable oversight in the vetting process does not meet the mayor-elect’s expectations.”‘s standards for this transition or new administration. “We took swift action to bring in an independent firm for additional support,” according to ABC7 Eyewitness News. The outlet reported in December that Mamdani’s transition team “is hiring an outside firm to further vet potential candidates to join the administration.»
Indeed, Weaver was examined. Mamdani and his team apparently had no objection to his past remarks.
“[Weaver] has been verified,” a spokeswoman for Mr. Mamdani said Tuesday, according to the New York Times. “We were aware of all these tweets.”
The mayor’s strategy makes sense. His brand is “radical”. What does he have to gain by earning the respect of anyone to Stalin’s right?
Mamdani’s personal X account dates back to 2011 and is full of inflammatory statements. Take your pick of the topic: defund the police, racism, white supremacy, abortion, whatever. None of this proved an obstacle to winning the mayoralty.
Mamdani mocked his participation in a New York Post article about “anti-white rhetoric among elected officials” in 2023. His constituents don’t care.
