White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt fires a fierce warning, calling Zohran Mamdani’s potential election as NYC mayor a “disaster for New York and this country.” Dive into the heated political battle unfolding in one of America’s most influential cities and explore what’s at stake for the future of New York and the nation. Is this just political fear-mongering or a genuine crisis? Watch now for all the explosive details.
00:00Look, I think the president reserves the right to get involved in races or not get involved in races and he's made the decision not to weigh in on the New York mayoral race, as you rightly pointed out, although he has gone as far to say he absolutely does not want to see Zemdami elected, who is a known communist who supports the abolishment of private property, the defunding of police. He has made very well-known anti-Semitic statements. It would be a disaster for New York.
00:28Last week, he would not be getting involved in the New York City mayoral case. If that mayoral race, if that's still the case, given his history drawing a large crowd in New York City, what's his reason for staying out of it in that way?
00:40Well, look, I think the president reserves the right to get involved in races or not get involved in races and he's made the decision not to weigh in on the New York mayoral race, as you rightly pointed out, although he has gone as far to say he absolutely does not want to see Zemdami elected, who is a known communist who supports the abolishment of private property, the defunding of police.
01:03He has made very well-known anti-Semitic statements. It would be a disaster for New York and for this country. And I think it's quite telling that this individual, a known communist, has been spending time in Washington this week meeting with leaders on Capitol Hill.
01:19This is truly where the Democrat Party is headed. Clearly, they learned nothing from November 5th in the president's overwhelming victory.
01:26Mary, go ahead.
01:28Thank you, Caroline. I want to backtrack to the hospitals that have stopped providing transgender surgeries and hormones for kids. On this front, does that have anything to do with the DOJ's subpoenas last week? Should we expect any more hospitals to be shutting down their program?
01:44And I want to also ask what you make of all these media reports, especially the AP, which I noticed, which portrays these children as losing something that's saving their lives?
01:57Yes, I think the president spoke a lot about this issue, which is a political issue, but also really a cultural issue that impacts children and families.
02:09He talked about it a lot on the campaign, and I think he was quite surprised by the uptick we were seeing in the embracement by the Democrat Party when it comes to the chemical castration and mutilation of young innocent bodies.
02:22And so the president made it a very early priority to sign very strong executive orders to cut off the funding for any hospital or any medical facility in this country that provides such barbaric procedures.
02:36And as a result of that strong policy and the president's strong common sense position on this issue, we've had such an overwhelming response, which is great for children in Arizona.
02:47Phoenix Children's Hospital has stopped providing puberty blockers and hormone therapy to minors.
02:52In California, Stanford Medicine ended sex chain surgeries for minors.
02:56Children's Hospital Los Angeles is closing its Center for Trans Youth Health and Development surgical program.
03:02In Illinois, Lurie Children's Hospital Chicago stopped sex change surgeries.
03:07Again, let's think about what we're talking about here.
03:09Sex change surgeries for minors.
03:11These are barbaric practices that no children, no child, innocent child should have to endure.
03:18And the president wants to protect the innocence of children.
03:21And I know the vast majority of Americans support him in that effort.
03:25This is a wildly popular and common sense endeavor this administration has taken.
03:30And we've seen many of these medical institutions have have followed through with the president's executive orders.
03:36But we'll continue to to take further action on this important issue.
