An investigation has emerged alleging that Zohran Mamdani, the newly elected mayor of New York City, benefited from a $2 billion tax-exempt syndicate that illegally funneled funds through charities to support his mayoral primary campaign. The syndicate reportedly laundered money by converting charitable donations and government grants, raising concerns about white-collar fraud and calls for an IRS investigation. Dr. Naomi Wolf highlighted Mamdani's dual Ugandan citizenship and lack of a clear employment history, questioning his suitability for public office. Additional claims suggest that $4.5 billion was funneled through George Soros' Open Society network, involving complex transfers between nonprofit organizations and candidates, with taxpayer money implicated. Critics argue that such nonprofit organizations receive tens of billions in government funds without adequate oversight, framing the issue as a form of political money laundering. The controversy also touches on Mamdani's policy positions, including his stance on Israel, which some view as aligned with broader Democratic perspectives.
