Ahead of a visit by democratic socialist and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to the White House on Friday, House lawmakers overwhelmingly passed a resolution condemning socialism, with dozens of Democrats joining Republicans in their McCarthyist fervor.
The resolution “denouncing the horrors of socialism” passed 285 to 98 on Friday morning, with 86 Democrats joining 199 Republicans in voting “yes.” Ninety-eight Democrats voted against the measure, while two voted “present.”
“Yes” votes included House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York), who waited until the last minute to give a lukewarm endorsement of Mamdani earlier this month, despite Mamdani being the Democratic nominee.
The visit took place before President Donald Trump is slated to host Mamdani for a meeting
