He might not win. By the time his opponents get through with him in November, I mean, you know, he's pretty shaky now. I remember very few people voted and they were left-wing zealots, most of them. But city of New York is going to pay a terrible price if this guy's elected mayor. I mean, he makes Bill de Blasio look like William F. Buckley Jr. And if you don't know who William F. Buckley Jr. is, Google it. Okay?

All right, so Mamdami is shrewd in his media use. He knows where to go, and he's good on television. So I'm going to pay you a couple of bites, okay? First one is Kristen Welker, NBC's Meet the Press, yesterday. Go. We went on your website and realized there's a policy proposal that says your plan, and I'm going to quote it for folks, is to shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods. Explain why you are bringing race into your tax proposal.

That is just an description of what we see right now. It's not driven by race. It's more of an assessment of what neighborhoods are being undertaxed versus overtaxed. Oh, what a bunch of bull. It's the biggest dog whistle to use a cliche in the world, and he's going to campaign on that all day long. Are you kidding me? We're getting white people. We're getting those rich white people. They don't pay their fair share. You are getting gouged. And the opposite is true. The opposite is true. If you look at the income tax chart, poor people don't pay any income tax. They get tax credits. And then more affluent people pay a whole lot.

New York's highest state tax in the union. Highest state taxed in the union. You combine feds and state. Now, what Zoran is trying to do is going, hey, if you're a minority voter, you vote for me, I'm going to get those rich white guys. That's what exactly what he's doing. Okay, let's be honest here. He'll never admit it. That's what he's doing. And he would tax 90%. I mean, he'd go as high as humanly possible. All right, second soundbite is CNN, Aaron Burnett. There must be a better distribution of wealth for all of God's children in this country.

And that's what I'm focused on, is dignity and taking on income inequality. And for too long, politicians have pretended that we're spectators to that crisis of affordability. Fidel Castro, Mandani, and I don't know whether he studied Castro, but his rhetoric is almost identical. So in 1958, Castro was a guerrilla fighter in the hills of Cuba. And he was basically telling the people, look, the rich guys, Batista, who was a dictator, and all these guys, they're screwing you, and we're going to overthrow them, and then we're going to redistribute the income in a fair way. And Castro did.

And every speech he made, it was the same thing. I'm not a communist. Oh, no, I'm not. He finally came out. Castro finally came out. But for the first year or so, no, no, no, no, I just want to be fair, redistribute. When you hear the word redistribute, okay? That means that a guy like Zoran Mamdani is going to decide how much money to take away from you and give to somebody else.

He's going to decide, just as Castro did. And what happened in Cuba? Castro seized all the private property, all the bank accounts, and everybody wound up poor. Everybody. Nobody prospered under the Havana Communist Doctrine. Because you can't do that. The achievers, the successful people, generate the money. you take them out of the equation, then you don't have a tax base.

And that's what will happen. If Zoran is elected, you will see a flight of capital outside of New York City, and I know if you've heard this before, that'll crush the tax receipts. That's why Hockel doesn't want them. And the nuts up in Albany, the left wing nuts, they don't want them.
