THE HATE SLATE: Mamdani-Backed America-Hating Communist Candidates Sweep NYC Primaries

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


New York City is finished.

Rational Americans must not underestimate the Democratic Socialists of America. Otherwise DSA candidates will be elected across the country to all levels of government.

“The communists are taking over the Democrat Party. Mamdani backed 3 congressional candidates in NY Democrat primaries tonight. All three won and not by small margins. Two took out powerful Democrat incumbents. All 3 are self proclaimed socialists but all 3 are really communists. One also boasted about wiping her dirty hands on the American flag. They all demonize . This is who the Democrats are now.” (Robbie Starbuck)

Mamdani-backed candidates win NYC primaries

By USA Today, June 23rd, 2026

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is riding the wave of his candidates challenging mainstream Democrats from the left, as all three of his congressional primary endorsements came up big.

Brad Lander was quickly projected as the winner against incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman in the state’s 10th Congressional District Democratic primary race. State Assemblywoman Claire Valdez was the primary winner in New York’s 7th Congressional District Democratic primary against Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso and Queens Councilwoman Julie Won.

Mamdani-backed lefties sweep in NYC congressional primaries — as socialist mayor’s influence grows to DC

By Craig McCarthy, Matt Troutman and Marie Pohl, NY Post, June 24, 2026:

The Zo-mentum is real.

Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s far-left slate of Big Apple congressional hopefuls prevailed in Tuesday’s Democratic primary — with firebrand Darializa Avila Chevalier projected to pull off an AOC-style upset.

Former city Comptroller Brad Lander and state Assemblywoman Claire Valdez were quickly projected by the Associated Press and NY1 to win over their establishment Democrat opponents.

Avila Chevalier held a razor-thin 49.3% to 46% lead over Rep. Adriano Espaillat with 86% of votes counted late Tuesday, leading the five-term incumbent to concede.

The projected win by Avila Chevalier and the congressional race victories — coupled with a likely clean sweep of Democratic Socialists of America candidates in state races — signaled Mamdani could expand his socialist wave beyond New York City, to Washington, DC.

Massive ‘Mamdani surge’ does not materialize in contested NYC House races

DSA-backed House candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier storms out of radio interview when questioned about old social media posts
“This is a moment when voters have the opportunity to vote in who would be a partner in fulfilling the affordability agenda,” Mamdani said earlier Tuesday as he stumped for Lander.

The win by Avila Chevalier over Espaillat in New York’s 13th House District echoed the stunning 2018 victory by her fellow DSA diehard Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over Democratic fixture Joe Crowley.

Mamdani endorsed Avila Chevalier, Lander and Valdez with the explicit promise that the lefty candidates would advance his “affordability agenda” in DC

Just two members of Congress — Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan) — are DSA members. The primary victories by Avila Chevalier and Valdez, in the Seventh House District, put two more closer to Congress — a fact not lost on supporters.

“DSA! DSA!” chants erupted at Valdez’s victory party in East Williamsburg.

The candidates hold a slew of far-left views that were once fringe within the Democratic Party.

Valdez and Avila Chevalier both campaigned on their staunch opposition to Israel — labeling the Jewish state’s actions in Gaza a genocide — and on pushing their pro-Palestinian values. Like Mamdani, the pair called for a full divestment of Israel and cutting off of any sales of US arms to its ally in the Middle East.

Valdez also echoed the Mamdani admin’s radical housing platform, pushing for the seizure of property from bad landlords.

All three also want to abolish ICE and Avila Chevalier, a community organizer and doctoral candidate, has even said she doesn’t believe foreign criminals should be deported.

Lander, for his part, isn’t a DSA member but scored Mamdani’s backing by hitching his political wagon to the socialist after their chummy contest in last year’s mayoral primary.

Over a decades-long career in New York City politics, the former city comptroller and Brooklyn councilman established himself as an outspoken progressive advocate.

He became even more vocally leftist after embracing Mamdani, telling CNN as the race for the 10th House District was called in his favor that the US needs to “reset” its relationship with Israel.

“We shouldn’t be taking corporate PAC money from Wall Street and crypto and AI and AIPAC,” he said.

“We’ve got to fight harder for working families and have people see us fighting for them, and we have to reset the U.S. relationship with Israel.”

While the trio of endorsements and victories drew cheers from Mamdani’s DSA pals, he ruffled feathers among establishment Dems and even his allies in the progressive Working Families Party.

Mamdani’s endorsement of Valdez, a one-term Queens state Assemblywoman, managed to tick off the retiring Rep. Nydia Velázquez.

Velázquez had backed Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso to succeed her in the district covering parts of Brooklyn and Queens.

Reynoso, a progressive, himself had backed Mamdani’s mayoral run. But he wasn’t part of the DSA, like Mamdani.
