WATCH: Fetterman Breaks Down Exactly Why Mamdani Is ‘So Mad At Bibi’ Netanyahu

He added, “You are a Mayor, dude. You’re a Mayor. You can fix a pothole. You can take out the trash. But you can’t order people to arrest anybody, any more than I could have him arrested if he goes to Pennsylvania. That’s — it’s a joke and he’s a clown. … So, sit down, you know you’re a clown and you are just going to pander to the fringe, and that’s part of your base, and I know you’re angry at Netanyahu because he killed a lot of people you admire, whether, like, it’s Sinwar or Nasrallah or [Khamenei] in Iran.”

Great deflection from legionnaires killing people under his watch. Great deflection from flooding in the outer boroughs. Great deflection from people getting pushed onto the tracks and lighting fires. How about you start doing your day job and stop being performative

What backtrack?! That he doesn't have the legal authority to do it?

“Arrest him,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., told Fox News Digital. “He’s a war criminal.”

Throughout Mamdani’s campaign, he repeatedly insisted that he would order the New York Police Department (NYPD) to enforce the warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) and arrest Netanyahu for his role in the war in Gaza.

But Mamdani finally acknowledged his inability to do so as the city lacks the “independent legal authority” to do so. On Tuesday night, he took to social media with a video calling on the federal government to execute the warrant by the ICC to arrest Netanyahu, also stating to be “equally clear” that the prime minister is “not welcome in New York City.”

“I think that whether or not he has the authority about it, I don’t really have an opinion on,” Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn., said. She continued, “But I do think that Netanyahu is a war criminal.”

“I wish that we had a country that didn’t excuse war criminals,” Lee said.

Tlaib also offered Mamdani help with the arrest as she wasn’t sure if he had the authority to complete the arrest.

“I don’t know if it applies to citizen’s arrest,” she said. “If he needs help, tell him to call me.”
