Mamdani Caught In Big Lie About Little Italy — His Excuse Makes It Worse

They’re right to stay vigilant. This is a man who posted a photo of himself flipping off a Columbus statue in 2020 with the caption “Take it down.” This is a man who replaced Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day. His feelings about Italian American heritage aren’t a mystery — they’re documented, timestamped, and sitting in his own social media archive.

The pressure campaign worked this time. Mamdani promised Little Italy will be added in a future update. Fine. Hold him to it. Screenshot the promise. Set a calendar reminder. And when the update comes — if it comes — verify that Little Italy actually appears and wasn’t quietly buried between entries nobody recognizes.
