A few months ago, I dug into Cea Weaver's Twitter history because she was Mamdani's housing advisor.
I had a hunch she might get a position on his team.
Well, she did, and she deleted her X account, accordingly.
However, I took some screenshots. Let's dig in.

For context, this woman was just selected by Mayor Mamdani to be the Director of the newly revitalized Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants.
According to NYC.gov - "The revitalized Office to Protect Tenants will serve as a central coordinating body to defend tenants’ rights, stand up to landlords, and ensure city agencies act swiftly on behalf of renters facing unsafe or illegal conditions."

Okay - so what are her beliefs?
1. "Public housing for everyone."
2. "Rent control and public housing for everyone"
3. "Massive government interventions to solve gentrification"

What else?
She believes:
"rent control is a perfect solution to everything"
and
rent control is "a more effective way to shrink the value of real estate than reducing rezoning applications"

Just in case you missed that -
Yes, she wants to SHRINK THE VALUE OF REAL ESTATE

Next up - views on white people:
"this country built wealth for white people through genocide, slavery, stolen land & labor"
"white supremacy built the north and the south"

"white supremacy built the north and the south"
"Private property is a weapon of white supremacy"
"Gentrification is... part of a centuries long process of white supremacy"
"Gentrification is... part of a centuries long process of white supremacy"
"The 'rules' are designed for white people"
"new/white residents are gonna benefit as the whole city is planned around their interests."
"new/white residents are gonna benefit as the whole city is planned around their interests."
"endorse a no more white men in office platform"
"improverish the *white* middle class
"homeownership is racist"
"improverish the *white* middle class
"homeownership is racist"
Warning - this one is creepy:
"I wish I believed in god so I could believe that all men who take credit for women's work and all white men who take credit for the work of women of color would one day burn"
"I wish I believed in god so I could believe that all men who take credit for women's work and all white men who take credit for the work of women of color would one day burn"
Apparently, she even wants white people to stop reproducing, and be banned from planes...
"came across a mob of 11 year old white boy children... i dunno why we keep procreating."
"Delta shd kick all white people in Xmas outfits off planes"
"came across a mob of 11 year old white boy children... i dunno why we keep procreating."
"Delta shd kick all white people in Xmas outfits off planes"
In addition to disliking (hating?) white people - she is a passionate Socialist...!
"we can and should raise expectations that we all live in green, beautiful, public housing"
"not convinced that stopping development... builds our movement or advances socialism like rent control does"

Cea Weaver and her boss, Mayor Mamdani, apparently see eye to eye on many things...
Apparently, they both want to "move away from a situation where most people access housing by purchasing it and towards a situation where the state guarantees high-quality housing to all."

Questions top of mind:
1) Does she work effectively with white people, despite her views about them?
2) Does she see homeownership as having any validity in building wealth?
3) Does she really hope we all live in gov housing?
4) Thoughts on the constitution?

"Will it grow our power?"
The mask is off on this one...
