Ken Griffin Accuses Mayor Zohran Mamdani of Endangering Safety During Wealth Tax Campaign
Billionaire Ken Griffin claims that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani put him in danger by filming a campaign video outside his home. Griffin stated that the mayor's actions put him in harm's way after Mamdani publicized his residential address to promote a new tax on the wealthy. The video was part of a broader plan to target high-income residents to pay for city programs. Business leaders and former officials have criticized the move. Former Governor David Paterson called the protest outside the billionaire's home a dangerous stunt. Other business figures described the campaign video as ugly and inappropriate. These critics argue that targeting individuals at their private residences could hurt the city's business climate.
