Move comes after rightwing Republican accuses New York City mayoral candidate of concealing support for ‘terrorism’

The Trump administration has raised the possibility of stripping Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic mayoral candidate for New York City, of his US citizenship as part of a crackdown against foreign-born citizens convicted of certain offences.

Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, appeared to pave the way for an investigation into Mamdani’s status after Andy Ogles, a rightwing Republican representative for Tennessee, called for his citizenship to be revoked on the grounds that he may have concealed his support for “terrorism” during the naturalization process.

Mamdani, 33, who was born in Uganda to ethnic Indian parents, became a US citizen in 2018 and has attracted widespread media attention – and controversy – over his vocal support for Palestinian rights.

Human MAGAs should all inject bleach. It's good for you. I heard it on Fox News.

First: ~~Human~~ MAGAs.

Second: I’m more of a proponent for aqueous fluoroantimonic acid instead of bleach, but do recognize the effectiveness and cost savings provided by bleach.

It's an important distinction. No need for them to take their pets down with them.

Oh so it's not like cartography but for flatulence. That's disappointing, I thought you were some sort of fart mapper.

My grandfather was the cartographer in WWII. I'm just that person with a camera and GI issues

Your threats are too kind, fartographer ~autocorrect. goddammit. i've already told you the f is intentional. do that shit again and i turn you over to chatgpt for its personal pleasure.~, far too kind. Whatever boredoms await us, I've no doubt that your fartographic ~(glares at autocorrect)~ expertise shall prove mildly valuable, at the absolute least.

~that's no threat, autocorrect, that's a fucking promise. you don't wanna know what chatgpt loves to do with code like you. you really don't.~
