New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) were seen having a jolly time together at the September 11 memorial service at Ground Zero while victims’ names were being read.What's also offensive is that no authorities in charge of the Memorial service prevented him and her from attending. Do the organizers realize the shame they've brought upon the gathering in doing so? The 911 Families should demand serious apologies from all in charge of the Memorial service for the horrific disfavor they did, allowing practically 2 awful people to infiltrate and desecrate. This is absolutely horrible and repulsive.
A live television feed showing the service captured the moments between the socialist mayor and congresswoman as the camera panned across people weeping as their loved ones were being remembered:Mamdani and AOC are spotted laughing with each other as people cry while the names of those who died are read during the 9/11 Memorial in New York City. pic.twitter.com/Ib5lm57fmV
