Debra Messing Faces Backlash for Jihadist Meme
Update: 2025-11-05
Description
Debra Messing faced backlash for sharing a political meme on Election Day, labeling New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani as a jihadist. The meme, originally shared by The Persian Jewess, suggested Mamdani was a communist jihadist, drawing criticism from many who accused Messing of spreading misinformation. Mamdani, who is running as a Democrat, has been a notable figure in New York City politics, and his platform has drawn fire from some conservatives. If elected, he would become the city’s first Muslim and Indian American mayor, and its youngest in generations.
