Fox Hosts Roast ‘Racist’ Zohran Mamdani for Claiming to Be ‘African-American’ on College Application: ‘He Should Call Elizabeth Warren’
Fox News’ Charlie Hurt, Griff Jenkins, and Katie Pavlich — the substitute hosts of Fox & Friends for the Fourth of July — roasted New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani over the revelation that he claimed to be African-American on his college applications.
“As he runs for mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani has made his identity as a Muslim immigrant of South Asian descent a key part of his appeal. But as a high school senior in 2009, Mr. Mamdani, the Democratic nominee, claimed another label when he applied to Columbia University,” The New York Times reported on Thursday. “Asked to identify his race, he checked a box that he was ‘Asian; but also ‘Black or African American,’ according to internal data derived from a hack of Columbia University that was shared with The New York Times.”
“Democrats’ new nominee to be the mayor of New York City, Mr. Mamdani, clearly despises America and everything that we stand for. Full-blown communist, also a racist, by the way. And it turns out that he had-, when he applied for Columbia University, he described himself as being Black and African-American because his parents happened to be in Uganda when he was born,” mused Hurt, as he introduced the segment.
“He did an interview on Thursday, and he said-, he did this with The New York Times, he said he did not consider herself himself Black or African-American, but rather an American who was born in Africa,” noted Pavlich. “He said his answers on the college application were an attempt to represent his complex background given the limited choices before him, and not to gain an upper hand in the admissions process.”
“He was not accepted to Columbia, we should also add. So maybe he should call Elizabeth Warren and see how this worked out for her, but she did use it to get ahead. So, you know, maybe there’s a difference there,” she added.
Jenkins then went on to lambast Mamdani’s housing policy.
“You wonder if the Upper East Side elite liberals that plan to vote for him know that he plans to move them out of their homes,” he wondered somewhat facetiously.
