LOL: Zohran Mamdani Claimed He Was Black on His Columbia University Application

Someone hacked Columbia's computers to prove they were still using illegal racial discrimination practices in admissions.

We don't know if they found evidence of that yet, but what they did find is that the pro-Hamas jihadi communist New Democrat Zohran Mamdani claimed in his Columbia application package that he was "Asian" and... "black."

The New York Times reported this, but only because they knew anti-DEI crusader Christopher Rufo was about to report it himself, and getting scooped by Rufo on an all-NYC story (Columbia is in NYC) would be a yet another professional embarrassment.

Unbelievably -- which I now use in its modern sense of "perfectly believably," just like "literally" now means "not literally" -- the New York Times is defending itself against its woke hyperpartisan Marxist employees for reporting actual news.

Jonathan Turley:


New York Times Struggles to Explain Why It Reported News to Traumatized Readers


This week, the New York Times experienced an uprising in its ranks and among its readers. The paper was denounced by its own staff and liberal pundits called for the entire editorial staff to be canned. Why? Because The New York Times actually reported news that was deemed harmful to the Democrats, specifically Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani.

The newspaper took the additional step of publishing a cringing explanation of why it reported the news that Mamdani lied on his Columbia application in claiming to be black.

For liberals, it was an utter nightmare. For a party still defined by identity politics, Mamdani's false claim over his race left many uncertain about how to react.

The left has always maintained a high degree of tolerance for false claims by its own leaders, from Sen. Elizabeth Warren claiming to be a native American to Sen. Richard Blumenthal claiming to have served in the Vietnam War.

The problem is when a news eco-chamber for many readers is shattered by an errant outbreak of journalism. Many Times readers live within a hermetically sealed news silo, relying on MSNBC for cable, The New York Times for print, and BlueSky for social media. You can literally go all day without being exposed to an opposing view or fact. Then suddenly this happens.

The result is often anger. It is the same response many in higher education have to "triggering" views being expressed on campus by conservative or libertarian speakers.

The fact is that the Mamdani story was obvious news--and confirmed by the candidate himself. Mamdani identified as both Asian and African American on his 2009 Columbia University application, according to the New York Times.

Some accused him of being a fraud while others suggested he was trying to abuse affirmative action.

The Times reported, adding:


Columbia, like many elite universities, used a race-conscious affirmative action admissions program at the time. Reporting that his race was Black or African American in addition to Asian could have given an advantage to Mr. Mamdani, who was born in Uganda and spent his earliest years there.

In an interview on Thursday, Mr. Mamdani, 33, said he did not consider himself either Black or African American, but rather "an American who was born in Africa." He said his answers on the college application were an attempt to represent his complex background given the limited choices before him, not to gain an upper hand in the admissions process. (He was not accepted at Columbia.)

Obviously, the Times is spinning as hard as it can to claim that its scoop just isn't very newsworthy and that you should ignore it entirely.

They are pushing Zorhan's spin: "In order to tell a deeper truth, I was forced to lie about the actual facts."

This is, of course, an eternal claim of the left, so it makes perfect sense to the NYT.


The Times readers were outraged to the point that the paper published a lengthy statement from the Times' assistant managing editor for Standards and Trust, Patrick Healy, attempting to explain why it decided to publish facts that undermined a Democratic candidate. Healy sheepishly explained that "When we hear anything of news value, we try to confirm it through direct sources. Mr. Mamdani confirmed this information in an interview with The Times."

It did not help. Much like the infamous Cotton scandal, where editors were fired for allowing a Republican senator to print an opposing view on riots, writers and pundits demanded firings or attacked the journalists.

One such response came from Times columnist Jamelle Bouie, who attacked the journalists themselves. Not surprisingly, the attack appropriately came on BlueSky, a social media site designed to be a safe place for liberals who do not want to be triggered by opposing views.

Bouie slammed Times reporter, Benjamin Ryan, as stupid, claiming, "Everything I have seen about him screams a guy with little to no actual brain activity."

After that outrageous attack, Bouie deleted the post, explaining, "I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards."

75 the New York Times is defending itself against its woke hyperpartisan Marxist employees for reporting actual news

During the madness of 2020, an insane black family (the Kinney family) living in a trendy Portland neighborhood decided that they were "sovereign citizens", and stopped paying their mortgage.

The bank moved to foreclose, of course, and the "Red House" acquired armed Antifa guards and other hangers-on, blocking any attempts to take the house, while incidentally terrorizing all the neighbors.

After all, you didn't want to make a black family homeless by kicking them out of their home.

Two reporters for Oregon Public Radio discovered that the Kinney family was actually living somewhere else, and was just renting out the Red House.

Reporting this caused a firestorm - there was a Maoist struggle session at OPB for daring to report this, and the reporters were forced to quit.

Nothing new.

124 “Most college applications don’t have a box for Indian-Ugandans, so I checked multiple boxes trying to capture the fullness of my background,” Mamdani said.

It's a technicality. His country of birth is close enough to identify in that way. People are making a big deal out of nothing.

Cuomo and Adams are trying to make this a big deal. They've gotta find something wrong with the guy. Anyone is free to identify with whatever cultural group they wish. The criticism says much more about Cuomo and Adams than it does about Mamdani.

This is an embarrassingly weak allegation, sort of like Obama's birth certificate.

So a high school student who immigrated here as a child from Africa and whose family had lived in Africa for a hundred years, shouldn't check the box that said African?

It's completely understandable and forgivable for an 18 yo kid. Does he still identify that way today? If the answer is no, there is no problem, if the answer is yes, big problem.

Posted by: Northernlurker , Maple

Rage at Ace? I can’t speak for anyone but me, I would not respond with rage toward Ace. Truth is truth. I may be upset about the situation, I may be upset with Trump, but the level of upset would be correlated to the what the negative something is. I would hope that would be the case for most of us, but I am sure there would be some out for the messenger.

“People thought we were crazy when we were telling them this but it just started getting more and more bleak in New York,” Taub told The Post. “For the same price that we were paying [for a two-bedroom apartment] in New York, we were getting a five-bedroom, four-bathroom house with a pool and a backyard.”

I mean, I'm in the same boat, I don't like Trump personally. He has a sleazy past, he's bombastic and ridiculous, he lies a lot, he's got an ego that's a good half the size of Obamas, and he's like a scuzzy reality show host in his public personality. I don't like any of that. I want a statesman who is respectable and dignified.

But... I really like what he is doing. I like what he is accomplishing. I am very impressed with how smart he is on running the economy and his genuine concern over peace and how hard he works to end conflict and protect Americans.

333 I find it a very disappointing factor in life that those who threaten or commit violence to advance their ends receive less criticism than those who are peaceful.

The newspaper apologizes for reporting the truth, because they are afraid of violence, or financial repercussions. There is no other justification for apologizing for the truth.

The same analogy applies to mohammedans versus Christians. One of these gets deference, and one does not, based on the perceived risk of retaliation.

We shall see. At least we are no longer in the world of continuing resolutions.

I would go after things that AWFLs like rather than districts--which getting rid of NPR and PBS funding is sure to do. They also loathe his Kennedy Center redux, etc. Plus the Green Nude Eel take direct aim at the Globull Warming crowd claiming indulgences for buying solar and electric cars while claiming tax credits for it.

He can win a lot of the seemingly solid blue areas by economic growth, rising wages, and declining inflation. Lot more working class voters than AWFLs. Trump's problem is that many GOP officeholders dislike poor whites and working class voters as much as the Dems in power.

How dare he not tax tips, how dare he cut Green Nude Eel that benefit the upper classes, how dare he not tax overtime or grandpa's social security as much.

What I think?

1. The usual fake polls get (somewhat) accurate the day before the election, so the pollsters can later claim they were accurate despite being intentionally wrong for 99% of the campaign.

2. Ranked choice probably really helped Bombdaddy in the actual election. He and that loathsome scumfucker Brad Lander cross-endorsed each other, so their supporters probably put then down #1 and #2.

More or less, unless the sampling frame is released, questions, etc. then yes, most Media sponsored polling or by newly sprung up polling firms are bullshit. There are a few reputable ones--Gallup, YouGov, Pew, Rasmussen, etc. but they tend not to be sponsored with media and they take time to actually do the job right.

And Fox, a hard left Dem staffer runs their polling operations and they have been outliers now for over a decade with a series of awful dishonest polling partners.

400 Considering something JJ said this morning about NYC; first I would rather they choose someone sane to run things. But if they choose Zohran, then yeah, they deserve every bit of collapse they're going to get. And even that isn't my first choice; my first choice is for all local government and the city to be put under direct military control as a military reconstruction zone for at least 10 years, with all residents banned from any voting participation for at least 10 years. (and that would apply wherever they move) with martial law strictly enforced.
But since that doesn't seem to be a possibility, then yeah, let it burn.

408 Question before the house: is it still considered acceptable to refer to "Indians" as opposed to "native Americans"? If not, why is the federal agency responsible for overseeing medical facilities on the reservations still called the Indian Health Service?

413 I mean, let's face it - how humble would *you* be if you were a bigshot real estate tycoon, turned entertainment superstar, turned world-historical political phenomenon?

It takes a lot of blind self-confidence to pull that off.

But it takes flat-out hubris to be a do-nothing shit talker who political apparatchiks place behind the Resolute Desk, and actually believe you earned it. Let alone thinking that you're an historic President.

448 Read about how Mom's film making has shaped his life.
Ha! Not buying any of it. (Reputation repair for the spoiled man child.)

---
Hollywood Reporter, 1 July 2025, For Zohran Mamdani, Mom Mira Nair’s Films Were a Formative Influence

In part, "What does the The Reluctant Fundamentalist say and why was it so formative? The movie (forget the title, which can give a different impression) seeks a balance between honoring the understandable American reactions of anger and grief to 9/11 and its aftermath while also platforming a more global perspective where those events played very differently. And it turns out to been important to a young Mamdani, offering a kind of hidden key to what shaped his ideology."
