Mamdani Says $1.8 Billion Slush Fund, Iran War ‘Offend’ Our ‘Moral,’ ‘Political,’ and ‘Economic’ Sensibilities

RUSH EXCERPT:

MAMDANI: “And for us to see all of this while we have a federal government that is willing to put $1.8 billion into a fund like this, leave alone, spend tens of billions of dollars on a war in Iran that not only offends our moral sensibilities or our political sensibilities, but also our economic ones, because just these kinds of decisions, it’s not just a use of money that could be spent for the benefit of working people here. It’s also a decision that exacerbates a cost of living crisis across the country, and makes it even harder for those working people, no matter what city they call home.”
