How Zohran Mamdani and JFREJ Weaponize Jewish Religion to Push anti-ICE & Palestinian Agenda

Tonight is the sixth night of Passover. This afternoon, Mayor Zohran Mamdani stood before a Jews for Racial and Economic Justice rally and used this sacred holiday of survival and perseverance to frame himself as some defender of Jewish people. Every word was carefully scripted to trigger everyone in the know and construct a Good Jew, Bad Jew framework built directly on his father's Good Muslim, Bad Muslim architecture. Anyone who understands what he is doing can see exactly what he was doing. That's the point.

"I would say that it's a pleasure to be here because celebrating Passover together is also an opportunity for New Yorkers at large to celebrate the lessons that Passover leaves all of us across these five boroughs. Lessons of hope overcoming fear, of solidarity being able to overcome isolation, and the knowledge that at the end of the story, freedom is attained and with it the sweetness of liberation."

Then came the tell. "And I know that in this moment for many New Yorkers that freedom feels out of reach. Whether it be freedom from a suffocating cost-of-living crisis, freedom from the rising tide of anti-Semitism, or freedom from the brutality of ICE."

Solidarity. Liberation. Freedom. In a single breath: rent, antisemitism, immigration enforcement. Pharaoh is a federal agent. The Hebrew slaves are undocumented migrants. And the Jews who disagree? They'll hear from him next.

"And I say that to you as the first Muslim mayor of our city. I often know that if ever I am in need of solidarity, I can turn to JFREJ. As they have been there also on the front lines of fighting back against the rising tide of Islamophobia in this city."

JFREJ: the good Jews. The loyal Jews. The righteous Jews. And anyone who questions them? Bad Jews. Greedy Zionists. Genocidal baby killers. The landlord Jews, the Bill Ackman Jews, the AIPAC Jews. Those Jews deserve no salvation. Let that framing sit for a moment, because these are not new techniques. The Nazis used them too.

He continued: "And it's a pleasure to be here because I want to add my name to the incredible elected officials that we have alongside us to say that we look forward to working hand-in-hand with JFREJ to win that freedom for this city as a whole. It is a freedom that has been long awaited. It is a freedom that has long seemed as if out of reach. And yet I know with this group, with this city, even that freedom is attainable. And thank you for reminding us of that."

These are revolutionary words. They are framing devices. And they are lifted directly from the conceptual architecture his father constructed in Good Muslim, Bad Muslim. By tomorrow, this footage will be broadcast everywhere. The hundreds of Jews who call it out will be framed as the enemy, the evil ones, the Pharaohs. Mamdani may not be an intellectual, but he is a gifted political actor, and with the full weight of Muslim solidarity, socialist organizing, and sympathetic media behind him, he can package this for the 97 percent who have no dog in the fight and vilify anyone who does.

He framed immigration enforcement as the modern Pharaoh. He equated ICE with Egyptian slavery. He publicly thanked JFREJ for modeling the "lessons of Passover." This was not a one-off. It was the latest chapter in a coordinated strategy that wraps Palestinian activism and open-borders demands in Jewish religious ritual while mainstream Jewish organizations are sidelined. At roughly the same time, protesters from this same network swarmed Palantir's Manhattan offices and got themselves arrested, targeting the tech company for its ICE contracts. Another Passover. Another operation. Same playbook.

Who Is Behind This

JFREJ presents itself as a Jewish voice for justice. In reality, it operates far outside mainstream Jewish consensus. Major Jewish community organizations have confirmed the group does not represent Jewish opinion or values. On October 7, 2023, the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust, JFREJ's initial statement acknowledged Hamas attacks on civilians as "neither justifiable nor unprovoked," then immediately pivoted to condemning Israel's response as "war crimes justified, enabled, supported, and denied by many in our Jewish community." Subsequent messaging emphasized ceasefire, Gaza suffering, and "occupation," while Hamas's role receded into the background. When Mamdani thanks JFREJ for its "history" and pledges to work "hand-in-hand" with the organization, he is thanking a group that responded to the massacre of 1,200 Israelis by indicting the Jewish state. That is not ambiguous. That is the record.

JFREJ's political director, Alicia Singham Goodwin, has been central to this effort from the beginning. A longtime NYC-DSA organizer and BDS supporter, she was arrested alongside Mamdani at an anti-Israel protest outside Chuck Schumer's home just one week after October 7. She led "Jews for Zohran," a targeted Jewish voter outreach operation with its own voter file, phone banks, and scripted talking points on antisemitism. Mamdani publicly credited her with one of his signature promises: making city buses fast and free.

Singham’s niece helped design Mamdani’s bus policy. His money built the nonprofits that put Mamdani in office. His organizations have zero FARA charges after 3+ years of congressional letters. This is not a left-right story. It’s an enforcement story.

The family connections run deeper. Alicia is the niece of Neville "Roy" Singham, the former Thoughtworks CEO who sold his company for $785 million and has funneled hundreds of millions into far-left causes, many aligned with Chinese Communist Party talking points. Her mother, Shanti Singham, teaches at a state-controlled university in Shanghai. Her father, Daniel Goodwin, was Thoughtworks' CFO. Multiple investigations have documented the Singham network's role in funding activist infrastructure across the American left. This is the same network that helped elect Mamdani and now influences policy from inside City Hall.

On his first day in office, January 1, 2026, Mamdani revoked the city's adoption of the IHRA working definition of antisemitism and nullified an executive order barring city agencies from boycotting Israel. Major Jewish organizations condemned the move as weakening protections at a time of rising violence. In March 2026, JFREJ released a 74-page policy blueprint arguing that antisemitism should be addressed through "root causes," intergroup programming, and community care, not policing or prosecution. Mamdani's administration signaled close collaboration, with his chief of staff noting JFREJ's role in shaping the Department of Community Safety vision. NYPD data shows hate crimes overall up 152% in early 2026 compared to the prior year, with anti-Jewish incidents up 182% in January alone. JFREJ's own report acknowledges the spike and prescribes soup kitchens and dialogue.

Mamdani's framing remains consistent: Trump, ICE, and antisemitism are the modern Pharaohs. Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran do not appear on his list.

The Play

You need to understand what you are watching. This is not a Jewish Passover celebration. It is a political operation using Passover imagery to launder an anti-deportation, pro-Palestinian, anti-Zionist agenda through the moral authority of the Jewish tradition.

The Exodus story is about God freeing His people. JFREJ inverts it. In their telling, the state of Israel is Pharaoh. ICE is Pharaoh. American immigration enforcement is Pharaoh. And the progressive coalition, led by a Muslim mayor with deep family ties to anti-Zionist academia, is the instrument of liberation. Most mainstream Jewish organizations do not recognize JFREJ as representative of Jewish communal interests. It is a fringe group, well-funded by Soros and Singham-aligned networks, that has found a strategy: use Jewish religious imagery and Jewish organizational branding to provide political cover for an agenda that a majority of American Jews would not recognize as their own.

Mamdani knows exactly what he is doing when he stands at a Seder organized by JFREJ. The Seder gives him Jewish legitimacy. The simultaneous arrest at Palantir reinforces the illusion that Jews are aligned with his administration's politics. He gets the photo. He gets the headline. He gets the "as-a-Jew" validators lined up behind him. A mayor backed by a CCP-linked funding network publicly praises an organization that responded to the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust by blaming Israel, and has placed that organization's vision at the center of Jewish safety policy in the largest Jewish city outside Israel. He does it on Passover, at a Seder, invoking liberation theology to equate federal immigration enforcement with the enslavement of the Hebrew people.

The Passover story ends with the sea closing over Pharaoh's army. In Mamdani's version, the sea closes over anyone who asks the wrong questions. Remember this the next time you see the footage. What you are watching is not religion. It is a con. And it was designed in exactly the kind of postcolonial activist household where Zohran Mamdani grew up.

This is the story. Remember it.
