Poverty Pretenders: Zohran Mamdani, AOC Push For Gen-Z American Socialism (But Only After Reaping Benefits Of Capitalism) w/ Kari Lake, John Carney & Mark Eiglarsh – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 502
“Zohran Mamdani pretends to speak for the oppressed—but he grew up in a $60k/year private school, went to an elite college, is the son of a Columbia professor and a (rich) famous film producer,” writes Eyal Yakoby. What happens to New York if a self-described “socialist” becomes mayor? Kari Lake, John Carney and Mark Eiglarsh take down the latest media and courtroom chaos, joined by Breitbart’s John Carney to expose NYC mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani’s privileged past despite his claims to speak for the oppressed – and why AOC still clings to her brand as a “Bronx girl” despite growing up in the suburbs miles away. “I’m proud of how I grew up and talk about it all the time,” Ocasio-Cortez clarified on X. “My mom cleaned houses and I helped. We cleaned tutors’ homes in exchange for SAT prep… Growing up between the Bronx and Yorktown deeply shaped my views of inequality & it’s a big reason I believe the things I do today!” Mark Eiglarsh is a veteran criminal defense attorney, former prosecutor, and adjunct law professor at Nova Southeastern University. He is also a media legal analyst and author of Be Happy By Choice. More at https://eiglarshlaw.com Kari Lake is a Senior Advisor for the U.S. Agency for Global Media.
