Senator John Fetterman is not impressed with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, or the song and dance that he has been doing about arresting Israeli leader Netanyahu if he comes to the city.
This week, Mamdani finally admitted what everyone already knew, that he has zero authority to make such an arrest.
During an appearance on Newsmax, Fetterman suggested that Mamdani should stick to trying to fix potholes.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: Today, President Trump took to Truth Social and posted, in part, quote: “Benjamin Netanyahu will not be arrested in any way, shape, or form while in the United States of America. He is fighting against the Islamic Republic of Iran, which recently killed 52,000 innocent protesters and has spent the last 47 years killing American soldiers and others.”
Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman joins me. Why is Mamdani making these threats? He doesn’t even have the authority, I don’t believe, to make an arrest like this.
SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN: He’s a total clown. He has the authority to arrest Netanyahu any more than I would have the authority to arrest him if he visited Washington, D.C.
You’re a mayor, dude. Pick up trash, fix some potholes, and really fix the homeless problem in your city. You’re way out of your league. This is irresponsible.
But like I said, he’s just a total clown, and it’s just for clicks at this point. He knows that he has nothing actionable. Now it’s just pandering to the DSA communists and his friends in New York.
GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: The prime minister is expected in the United States when the U.N. General Assembly opens again in September, so he will be here. What’s interesting is that, in the past, he has been unable to refuel his plane in countries that are signatories to the International Criminal Court. So he’s been strategic in how he gets here. I think he can now come all the way here without refueling. But it is a lot of saber-rattling toward the prime minister. He is expected to be in New York soon.
SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN: It’s not even that. It’s just this cheeseball running his mouth. That’s the thing.
Again, the mayor does not direct arrests. The police enforce warrants. There is not a warrant. America is not part of the ICC.

Inject this into my veins.

Unlike many of his fellow Democrats, Fetterman has not been shy about calling out the radical left. It’s very refreshing.
