The “Law and Order” architect has seen the future of New York, and he says it’s covered in needles and pup tents. On Sunday, December 21, 2025, former Mayor Rudy Giuliani unleashed a scorched-earth warning against Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, calling his plan to end homeless sweeps “possibly the most dangerous thing a New York mayor has ever done.”
Giuliani isn’t just talking about “clutter”—he’s talking about violence. He warns that by stopping the clearance of encampments, Mamdani is creating an “isolation chamber” for the severely mentally ill. According to the man who cleaned up Times Square, leaving paranoid schizophrenics in street camps turns “safe” people into killers within months. While Mamdani pitches “empathy,” Giuliani says the socialist leader is actually building a factory for the next subway shoveler or street attacker.
The “Rage Trigger” Section: The Controversy Everyone is Ignoring
The media is playing up the “homeless advocate” angle, but they are ignoring the Real Estate Bloodbath already beginning in Midtown. Following Mamdani’s announcement, industry leaders warned that property values in “High Tent Zones” could crater by 25-30% by the end of 2026.
The real scandal? While Mamdani promises to “connect people to housing,” his own data shows a zero-percent success rate for permanent placement from these sites. He’s not “housing” them; he’s privatizing public space for the most antisocial elements of society. Even far-left governors like Gavin Newsom have admitted that sweeps are necessary—making Mamdani more radical than the most liberal leaders in California. He’s not following a “new path”; he’s repeating the David Dinkins era disaster that turned New York into a crime-ravaged warzone.
Deep Background: The “Dinkins 2.0” Dirty History
Giuliani’s comparison to David Dinkins is a direct hit to Mamdani’s socialist core. Dinkins—also a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)—oversaw the early 90s crime peak where the city felt out of control.
The “dirty history” of the hands-off approach is that it doesn’t just hurt the public; it kills the homeless. Without the “constant contact” of sweeps and outreach, the mortality rate in street camps triples due to overdoses and exposure. Mamdani is effectively signing death warrants for the people he claims to protect, all while the 2024 Supreme Court ruling gave him the legal green light to keep the streets clear. He has the power to save the city; he’s choosing to let it burn to satisfy his DSA handlers.
The Cold Hard Truth from the Insiders
“Mamdani is under too much pressure from the far-left to be reasonable,” Giuliani stated. The “Hard Truth” from NYPD insiders is that the force is terrified of the new “Department of Community Safety.” By replacing cops with social workers for encampment “outreach,” Mamdani is sending unarmed civilians into high-risk zones where drug dealers and “paranoid schizophrenics” are increasingly armed with knives and blunt objects.
Sources within the real estate board say they are already seeing a “silent exit” of high-tax-paying residents moving to Florida. If the “Tent City” policy goes live on January 1st, the tax base that funds NYC’s $110 billion budget will evaporate before Mamdani can even finish his first press conference.
