Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic congressman representing New York’s 13th Congressional District, was questioned by Fox News Digital about the ‘communist’ label during a pre-meeting with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. The encounter took place outside Mamdani’s apartment, capturing a moment of political tension within the Democratic Party.
Mamdani’s refusal to comment on the label has drawn attention to the internal debates over party unity and ideological positioning. The meeting with Jeffries, a senior member of the Democratic leadership, is seen as a critical moment for the party’s strategy ahead of upcoming elections and legislative sessions.
