A top advisor to NYC’s socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been exposed for deleted social media posts attacking “white civility” and “white politeness” after a confrontation on a commuter train, adding to a growing pattern of radical rhetoric from administration officials. Story Snapshot Drashti Brahmbhatt, advisor to NYC Mayor Mamdani, posted deleted tweets rejecting “white standards of politeness” after a 2021 train confrontation Brahmbhatt claimed an older white woman gave her “death glares” during a phone call, prompting her racially-charged response Mayor Mamdani has remained silent on the controversy despite defending other aides with similar radical posts The incident adds to a troubling pattern of Mamdani administration officials promoting divisive, anti-white rhetoric Another Radical Aide Exposed Drashti Brahmbhatt, an advisor to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, authored inflammatory tweets in November 2021 describing a confrontation with an “older white woman” on a Metro-North Railroad train. Brahmbhatt claimed the woman gave her “death glares” during a 40-minute phone call, though she insisted she spoke softly. The advisor then confronted the woman and proceeded to reject what she called “white standards of politeness” and “white civility” in posts that have since been deleted. These tweets surfaced on February 10, 2026, as Brahmbhatt served in Mamdani’s administration. “I don’t need to follow white standards of ‘politeness,’” Brahmbhatt insisted. https://t.co/YaBME2A26n — The National Pulse (@TheNatPulse) February 11, 2026 Pattern of Defending Extremist Views Brahmbhatt’s comments fit a disturbing pattern within Mamdani’s Democratic Socialists of America-aligned administration. The mayor previously defended other aides who made inflammatory statements, including one calling to “Impoverish the white middle class” and tenant official Cea Weaver, who tweeted that “homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy.” Mamdani’s platform included punitive taxes on “whiter neighborhoods,” and he has filled his administration with DSA supporters advocating police abolition and anti-Israel positions. His willingness to retain officials with such divisive views raises serious questions about his judgment and commitment to representing all New Yorkers. Silence Speaks Volumes Unlike previous controversies where Mamdani publicly defended his aides’ radical statements, the mayor has remained notably silent on Brahmbhatt’s resurfaced posts. This absence of comment occurs as his administration faces multiple scandals, including an aide linked to a fraud-accused law firm and the appointment of a former Rikers inmate as Corrections head. The mayor’s selective defense of controversial staffers suggests political calculations rather than principled leadership. His administration’s pattern of hiring individuals with extreme ideological views and racially divisive rhetoric demonstrates a prioritization of socialist loyalty over competence and unity. NEW from me Digging into more of the now-deleted X posts of top officials around Zohran Mamdani This is Drashti Brahmbhatt — a top advisor, who relayed this incredible story in November 2021 about "how terrible white women are" pic.twitter.com/7jsBxfwVw9 — Jon Levine (@LevineJonathan) February 9, 2026 Erosion of Common Decency The incident highlights how identity politics and grievance culture corrode basic social norms that hold communities together. Brahmbhatt’s rejection of basic courtesy as “white standards” promotes a dangerous worldview that judges behavior through a racial lens rather than universal principles of respect. This divisive ideology, endorsed through Mamdani’s hiring practices and public defenses of similar rhetoric, threatens to fracture New York City along racial lines. The administration’s embrace of officials who openly express disdain for white Americans undermines the mayor’s ability to govern effectively for all residents, regardless of race or background, and represents government-sanctioned racial hostility that would be universally condemned if directed at any other group.
