Well, this is indicative of the politics of the new mayor of New York, although I don’t believe that seizure of private property will actually take place. Obviously, we will see. One of the policies that have been floated is that private property in NYC must first be offered to the city before being put on the open market.
Why is is always that lily white female liberals who take these far-left public positions?
Cea Weaver, Mamdani’s new director of the city Office to Protect Tenants, made the statements and urged her followers to elect more Communists in several lecturing posts on her now-deleted X account that were unearthed by internet sleuths.
“Seize private property!” she said on June 13, 2018.
She later doubled down on that in a mini-manifesto in August 2019.
“Private property including any kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy,” she said then.
Weaver also pushed to “Elect more communists” in December 2017 — when a Harlem street corner was being renamed in honor of former Manhattan Rep. Vito Marcantonio, who was a Communist.
She also unloaded on law enforcement in a May 2020 rant that came during the furor over the death of George Floyd.
“The Police Are Just People The State Sanctions To Murder W[ith] Immunity,” she posted.
Weaver, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America and former campaign coordinator for Housing Justice For All, also served as an adviser to the Mamdani campaign in 2025.
The Post featured her as part of a group of young lefty progressives in Mamdani’s brain trust.
She was a key player in lobbying the Democrat-run state Legislature to tighten the city’s rent stabilization laws in 2019, making them more pro-tenant.
