Democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani‘s campaign got a donation boost from Israel-bashing campus protesters and other rabble rousers — including antagonists arrested for rioting and other offenses, election records reveal.
Mamdani has received 676 donations from either faculty or employees from left-leaning CUNY, NYU and Columbia University totaling more than $48,000, disclosures showed.
Additionally, Mamdani has received over 1,351 donations from college students, totaling over $46,200, according to the records.
Small donations get an eight-to-one match in public funds, so the pro-Palestinian, pro-Hamas crowd has given Mamdani a heaping of help.
A leader of America’s leading Jewish medical group said the donations to Mamdani are enough to make her sick, knowing that some of the donations are coming from people spewing Jew hatred at protests.
“Some of the donors to Mamdani’s campaign should raise red flags and be a clear message to all voters because those donors are people who have been at the center of anti-Semitic protests across the country,” said Yael Halaas, founder of the American Jewish Medical Association and a Columbia graduate.
“We must all stand up together and say enough is enough – we cannot tolerate this hatred and we must make our voices heard in this and every upcoming election.”
Among the donors:
— Columbia doctoral-student-teacher Johanna King Slutsky — nicknamed “Keffiyeh Karen” by The Post for infamously demanding that protesters who violently occupied and vandalized an academic building at the Ivy League school last year be given water and humanitarian treatment. King Slutsky donated $25 to Mamdani’s campaign on Jan. 6, records showed.
King Slutsky declined comment when reached by The Post.
— Eva-Quenby Johnson, a Barnard College employee who was arrested on May 7 for storming the Columbia University library, donated $25 to Mamdani’s campaign on March 12.
She also co-runs The Phenomena Podcast, an “exploration of the influence of ghosts on American culture & society,” where she classifies herself as a “paranormalist.”
She was one of about 80 masked radicals who were arrested by the NYPD after violently barging into the library as students prepared for final exams, injuring two campus security officers.
A source familiar with Johnson’s case said she was terminated and was no longer working at Barnard.
— Gabrielle Wimer, a medical student at Columbia who was arrested in March after storming a library at affiliated Barnard College, donated $25 to Mamdani on Jan. 10.
She could not be reached for comment.
Jewish students expressed outrage after seeing her back on campus following a suspension.
— Naomi Schiller, an associate professor of anthropology at CUNY’s Brooklyn College who participated in the recent protest at the campus that erupted into a melee with dozens of people arrested, gave five contributions to Mamdani totaling $128.
Schiller also was arrested last fall for disorderly conduct for blocking an entrance to a CUNY Board of Trustees as part of a union contract protest.
— Jennifer Koonings, an Astoria-based nurse practitioner recently heckled Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at her town hall in Queens, calling her a “war criminal.” She is also a Mamdani donor, giving $50 last December.
On social media Koonings refers to “the Zionist colony called Israel” and joined in a “Gaza Freedom Flotilla” last year that attempted to sail into Gaza to “break the siege.”
