About this episode

The episode discusses NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's new tax targeting the wealthy and its implications for property rights and economic freedom.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) just dropped the gloves and openly declared war on the rich with a new tax targeting second homes and luxury properties. What sounds like “soaking the wealthy” today is a dangerous precedent that threatens property rights, economic freedom, and the very foundation of success in America. Once the government normalizes punishing people for owning what they have earned, the target never stays on the rich — it always creeps down to the middle class and small businesses next. This is how cities die: capital flees, jobs vanish, and the people left behind pay the real price. We also cover: Kris Cruz returns from jury duty. Rep. Lauren Boebert is ready to protect victims.
