If we want to talk about the social media history of people’s wives, especially how they reacted to Oct 7th, we’re going to have to talk about Zohran Mamdani’s wife 🧵

A few days ago, the NYT ran a smear article on Dan Goldman’s wife’s social media activity post-Oct 7th. Disgruntled Goldman constituents tried to pathologize the normal and common Jewish trauma reaction. nytimes.com/2026/03/04/nyr…
The same constituents would likely shrug off Zohran Mamdani’s wife’s cheering of the actual genocidal actions of Hamas, a terrorist organization, and her support of the protests in NYC backed those actions.
To his credit, Zohran Mamdani the politician has denounced the Oct 7th attacks. Similarly, Dan Goldman has also explained that his wife does not speak for him.
So I guess the two have that in common.
The real question is, Will the NYT run the same breathless smear article about Zohran Mamdani and his wife’s social media activity? Or is this type of “journalism” reserved for only those the NYT “reporters” ideologically disagree with? Let’s wait and see!
