Rep. Nancy Mace criticized New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani over his call for the federal government to enforce an ICC arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu. Sen. John Fetterman also condemned Mamdani, while the article says New York City cannot independently enforce the warrant.
On the July 23 episode of “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Mace called Mamdani’s position “extraordinarily stupid” and criticized his role as mayor. Mamdani had called Netanyahu a “war criminal” and said he was not welcome in New York; he later urged the federal government to enforce the ICC warrant after city lawyers concluded the NYPD lacked independent authority to do so.
Fetterman also criticized Mamdani in an appearance on “Hannity,” saying the mayor could not order arrests and calling him a “clown.” The article describes the dispute as reflecting political divisions over Israel and Palestine, and says New York City cannot independently arrest Netanyahu.
