  <description>Zohran Mamdani may have turned the Big Apple red, but the threat to America is far from contained to its biggest city. Across the country, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are rising with a radical agenda—and it represents the only true threat to the America First movement's future.
Restoration News investigative researcher Jacob Grandstaff is the man with the strategy for defeating the radical Left. Join host Hayden Ludwig as we dive int Mamdani's background, how he won in 2025, and how we fight back.

  <description>Zohran Mamdani, newly elected mayor of the Big Apple, is no ordinary socialist. The son of an African Marxist, he represents a new racialized Communism that could tear America apart... and presents a powerful alternative to the America First vision of unity and strength. Here to unpack the history and pave the way toward victory is Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch and author of the new book Intifada on the Hudson: The Selling of Zohran Mamdani.
