One day after the New York City mayoral debate, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani openly campaigned at a mosque alongside Imam Siraj Wahhaj, an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
Instead of distancing himself, Mamdani proudly highlighted the event.
He even posted about it publicly, as if daring New Yorkers to overlook the danger.
For years, warnings about Mamdani’s ties to Wahhaj have circulated. Wahhaj was named by federal prosecutors as a co-conspirator in the terror plot that killed six and injured more than a thousand.

Despite this, he continues to serve as an imam in New York and has donated to Mamdani’s campaign.
He remains an influential figure in the same activist networks that have normalized radicalism under the banner of “progress.”
The connections don’t stop there. Linda Sarsour, the anti-Israel activist who has publicly defended Hamas sympathizers, calls Wahhaj her mentor.
His son, Siraj Wahhaj Jr., operated a jihadi compound in New Mexico where children were indoctrinated and trained to commit terrorist attacks.
Federal authorities reported that the group stockpiled weapons, plotted mass murder, and buried the remains of children on the site.
Members of the compound received life sentences.
These are the people surrounding Mamdani. These are the networks trying to seize political power in New York City.
Instead of distancing himself, Mamdani embraces them.

Beyond terrorism, Mamdani has also advanced a dangerous vision for education.
He prioritizes radical policy over academic excellence, using classrooms to promote ideology rather than learning. That’s where YouthVote comes in.
YouthVote’s mission is straightforward but urgent: protect America’s schools by exposing extremist candidates, holding school boards accountable, and giving parents the tools to defend their children’s education.
The organization has conducted dozens of investigations nationwide, uncovering how radical candidates twist education into activism and leave students behind.
Every student deserves a classroom focused on knowledge, not indoctrination.
Every parent deserves the right to choose schools that prioritize learning over politics.
And every voter deserves to know when candidates like Mamdani align themselves with extremists who have spent decades undermining America.
New York City cannot afford leaders who cozy up to radicals with histories of violence and extremism.
YouthVote will continue to shed light on these candidates, defend families, and fight for classrooms free of politics.
Support its mission by subscribing and sharing their work—because protecting children’s education must always come before protecting politicians with extremist ties.
