Communist Zohran Mamdani Is Taxing All Luxury Part-Time Homes in NYC

Filthy Terrorist Theater Kid is imposing a so-called pied-a-terre tax on millionaire's apartments, if they only live there part of the year. In other words, if they're a pied-a-terre, a little place in the city to take your mistresses to. A foot on the ground, the term means, approximately. A little place in the city you can visit when you're bored of your country estate.

He's bragging about this and grinning like a chimp.

In other words, he's directly taxing his bicoastal/bisexual celebrity supporters.

Do I even object to this? I think this makes me happy.

The worse the better, as bitter old communists say -- the worse this corrupt system gets, the better for all of mankind, because it will hasten the revolution.

Let them turn their cities into dust and then tell us "Real socialism has never been tried!!1!"

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani touted Gov. Kathy Hochul's proposal on April 15 to tax expensive second homes as a sign of a progressive tide to tax the rich, but it will only apply to absentee owners.

The pied-à-terre tax puts an annual surcharge on homes valued above $5 million when there is no resident who lives primarily in New York City. The tax, which would need to be passed in the state's delayed budget, would generate some $500 million in revenue annually, according to Hochul's office.

"If you can afford a $5 million second home that sits empty most of the year, you can afford to contribute like every other New Yorker," Hochul said in a statement. Non-resident owners do not pay New York City's income taxes. To avoid taxation, property owners could make the home their primary residence or rent it out someone else who does so.

Hochul, a moderate Democrat up for re-election in November, has been hesitant to raise taxes, which the city cannot do without the state government's permission. Mamdani, a democratic socialist, ran for mayor on a platform of free buses, universal childcare and city-run grocery stores paid for in part by levying higher taxes on the rich.

The filthy communist's Death Cult Whore wife has previously celebrated terrorism and especially the October 7 massacre, and has been ever so slightly pressured -- not by the media or Democrats, mind you -- to offer a weak, half-hearted, insincere apology about writing the word "n****r" and posting slurs about gays.

But about praising Muslim murderers who slaughter civilians? Nope, no apologies for that!

Yesterday, Duwaji finally apologized for her comments during an interview with a hand-picked art critic. Only, her apology was pretty limited.

Rama Duwaji, the wife of Mayor Zohran Mamdani of New York City, apologized in an interview published on Wednesday by the art site Hyperallergic for using the N-word as a 15-year-old in social media posts that a conservative news site recently unearthed.

The news site, The Free Beacon, also reported that when Ms. Duwaji was 15, she had tweeted an abbreviation of a slur for gay people.

"When a tabloid recently published old tweets I wrote as a teenager, I felt a lot of shame being confronted with language I used that is so harmful to others," she said. "Being 15 doesn't excuse it. I've read and seen a lot of what others have had to say in response, and I understand the hurt I caused and am truly sorry."

So she's sorry about the N-word and the gay slur when she was 15. And look, even I said that no one really cares about things she said when she was 15. Every 15-year-old says dumb things. What about the pro-terrorist stuff when she was 20 or praising Hamas even more recently?

Asked to explain which social media posts Ms. Duwaji was apologizing for, a spokeswoman for the mayor declined to comment...

Ms. Duwaji also did not appear to address some of her more recent social media activity that has also drawn criticism.

She had liked posts appearing to celebrate Hamas's deadly attack on Israel, right after Oct. 7, 2023...

She also attracted scrutiny for providing an illustration for a story included in a compilation curated by Susan Abulhawa, a Palestinian American author who has described the Oct. 7 attack as "a spectacular moment that shocked the world." On Wednesday, Ms. Abulhawa posted on X that "Israelis and all zionists are parasitic filth."

They mayor "declined to comment" and Ms. Duwaji just refused to apologize for praising hijackers and Hamas. They already know this is going to just go away.

Oh, and Mamdani will be opening one (1) "government supermarket." It will cost 30 fucking million dollars and won't open until... 2029.

Without a doubt, government must do more because it does it so well and so efficiently.

And also, no Democrats are getting their palms greased in this boondoggle. They're totally not foreign pirates plundering our money from us at every turn.
