I am deeply concerned about President Trump’s recent public threat to withhold federal funds from New York City if voters elect Zohran Mamdani as mayor. This action is illegal and unconstitutional: Election interference (18 U.S.C. § 595): Using the power of the presidency to influence elections or punish voters. Illegal impoundment (Impoundment Control Act & Appropriations Clause): Withholding funds Congress has already appropriated. Constitutional violations (Take Care Clause & First Amendment): Failing to faithfully execute the law and retaliating against voters for their political choices. Civil rights violations (18 U.S.C. §§ 241 & 242): Punishing citizens for exercising their right to vote. This is not speculation—it is a public statement of intent to break the law. Actions like this are grounds for consideration of impeachment. I urge you to: 1 Investigate this illegal conduct immediately. 2 Hold the President accountable for violating federal law. 3 Consider pursuing articles of impeachment to uphold the Constitution and protect the rights of American voters. Thank you for standing up for the rule of law and the integrity of our democracy.
