See this guy is a "problem" being a foreign born citizen running for public office. When we just finished up having a foreign born citizen fucking around in our federal government for 6 months in a position that was not voted for, or on. Ill give you 1 guess as to what the difference is between those two people I mentioned, and its the reason why both Fareh and Mamdani are under such scrutiny.

He isn't a foreign born citizen at all. Born in D.C. He doesn't even have an accent. They saw his name and skin color and masked off their stupid.

Fair enough, that shows off my ignorance I honestly spoke without doing a lot of research on Fateh. Oops. The point still stands though! 😂 P.S. I realize it says this in the summary of the article, turns out I cant read either. Lol
