Zohran Mamdani – Screencap of Twitter/X video.
New York City’s mayor-elect put out a statement about the National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom, who died after being shot in Washington, DC this week. Mamdani’s message is being slammed on Twitter/X for leaving out or twisting rather important details about the incident.
See if you can spot what is wrong with his message. Take a look below:
I’m devastated to learn of the passing of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, a member of the West Virginia National Guard. She was only twenty years old.
As families across the nation come together today to celebrate Thanksgiving, let us take a moment to think of those in West Virginia…

Passing? She just passed away? That’s what happened?
From RedState:
Many noticed that the X comment from Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, in response to the news of Beckstrom’s death, was seriously lacking in some fundamental things.
I’m devastated to learn of the passing of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, a member of the West Virginia National Guard. She was only twenty years old.

He didn’t mention anything about Beckstrom being killed or murdered. He didn’t mention it was allegedly by an Afghan national who yelled, “Allahu Akbar.” He didn’t mention that the police are alleging it was an ambush and are investigating it as possible terrorism.

If you didn’t know about this story, you might have thought she died of cancer based on how vague this is. https://t.co/vjSPoIfpL1

Note the passive language. She wasn’t murdered by an Islamist Afghan terrorist, “she passed.”
This man is a machine to whitewash terrorist propaganda https://t.co/vfA1IPZNcU

When an Islamic extremist executes a National Guard soldier in cold blood,
Zohran refuses to mention how the victim died. They just “pass away.”
But Zohran accuses American police of murder all the time. He denounces prisons for MURDERING “black and brown people.” He denounces… https://t.co/NIGIu5dqTf pic.twitter.com/k22rMkU2l4

Consider this a preview of Mamdani’s first term as mayor of NYC. It’s going to be horrible.
