The brother of the Big Apple’s top cop called mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani an “enemy” of Jewish people during a fiery charity dinner speech where he railed about the future of the city.

Benjamin Tisch — younger brother of police Commissioner Jessica Tisch — was presenting an award Wednesday evening during the Met Council’s annual holiday dinner when the top exec at the Loews Corporation skewered the radical DSA lawmaker, according to sources.

The comments come just weeks after Jessica Tisch accepted an offer from the Mamdani to stay on as police commissioner — despite being far apart on a number of issues, including bail reform, raise the age and Israel.

The Tisch family, excluding Jessica, spent millions during the mayoral election to back Mamdani’s top foe, Andrew Cuomo, in an attempt to stave off the socialist mayor.

    NYpost has a weird thing going on where they ocasionally report on Israel news in a brutally honest way. Maybe they think it appeals to Zionists because Zionists would see this as a win, maybe they’re actually critical of Israel (99% certain it’s the first). This title on their front page today is a prime example of something that sounds great to right-wingers but not so great to anyone else.

    I occasionally come accross these kinds of bold claims on social media and do a quick check for an article. Lo and behold usually it’s only right-wing rags reporting them. Which is strange because I’d expect this kind of a title from left wing media but they don’t seem to care.
