The co-founder of Blaze Media, Glenn Beck, has criticized Zohran Mamdani’s recent comments about wealth, suggesting that they carry a misleading undertone.

During an interview with Batya Ungar-Sargon on Saturday, Beck remarked, “You’re receiving funding from influential figures like George Soros and Bill Gates, as well as the Tides Foundation. It’s hypocritical to criticize the wealthy when they are the ones backing your campaign and influencing your life. I find this deeply objectionable.”

Just days ago, Mamdani achieved a significant political victory by defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa in the New York City mayoral election.
