Overview
- New reporting by the Daily Wire alleges Rama Duwaji provided animations used in the DSA’s “Palestine on the Ballot” effort to mobilize voters against AIPAC-backed candidates.
- The report says the campaign highlighted the Not on Our Dime Act, legislation originally sponsored by Mayor Zohran Mamdani when he served in the state Assembly.
- The Daily Wire also cites prior claims that Duwaji liked Instagram posts praising the Oct. 7 attacks and a post dismissing reports of mass rapes as a hoax.
- Mayor Mamdani’s office has issued a statement condemning Hamas as a terrorist organization, and earlier this month he described his wife as a private person with no formal role.
- Critics including Dov Hikind argue her activity reflects on City Hall, while Fox News contributor Guy Benson told the Washington Examiner the press scrutiny is fair game and noted additional offensive posts from her earlier years.
