Katia Reguero Lindor, wife of New York Mets superstar shortstop Francisco Lindor, has been named to the inaugural committee of incoming Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
Lindor, a vocal social justice advocate who has publicly railed against the wealthy elite, is married to an athlete pulling in a staggering $34.1 million annual salary.
Elite hypocrisy like this is often seen in far-left circles, where champagne socialists preach equality while enjoying the fruits of capitalism.
Katia Lindor, a classically trained violinist and host of “The Unaparent Podcast,” describes herself as a “breastfeeding + home birth + social justice advocate.” She has used her platform to push progressive causes, including sharp criticisms of the rich.
In a November Instagram post during the mayoral election, she declared, “Your enemies aren’t the immigrants — they’re the one-percenters hoarding the wealth while leaving you without basic needs.”

She further emphasized that supporting politicians like Mamdani, who fight for immigrants, artists, workers, and “everyone who deserves a dignified life,” isn’t against her interests, “even if I’m in a different economic position.”
This rhetoric echoes the “Eat the Rich” mantra popular among anti-capitalist activists, including The Squad, yet it comes from someone whose household wealth is firmly in the top 1%.
Katia Lindor’s on Mamdani’s committee? Perfect. Her husband’s raking in $32M while she lectures New Yorkers that “the 1% are the real threat.” Classic DSA hypocrisy: tax the rich—unless they’re your donors.
Mamdani’s inauguration isn’t a fresh start—it’s a parade of performative…

Francisco Lindor, the Mets’ star shortstop, signed a massive 10-year, $341 million contract extension in 2021, making him one of MLB’s highest-paid players.
The couple, who met via Instagram DMs and married in 2021, share three children and a life of luxury that starkly contrasts with Katia’s public stances.
Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist and the first Muslim mayor of New York City, won the election on a platform of progressive reforms, including rent freezes and expanded public housing.
Notable committee members alongside Katia Lindor include actress Cynthia Nixon, actor John Turturro, comedian Julio Torres, novelist Colson Whitehead, children’s star Ms. Rachel, and Beth Miller from Jewish Voice for Peace.
Mamdani praised the lineup, saying, “Our city’s artists, thinkers, organizers, and activists have shaped what New York looks, sounds, and feels like. This is a celebration of the movement that made this victory possible, and the beginning of a new dawn for our city.”
Outkick reports:
It’s been a rough offseason for Mets fans. Pete Alonso, Edwin Díaz, Brandon Nimmo, and Jeff McNeil all left, and not much talent has replaced them.
But the good news?
The wife of the team’s best player is helping welcome in the guy who’s about to make living in New York City even more of a nightmare than it already is.
What a time to be a Mets fan.
