Spencer Pratt lights social media on fire with viral takedown of ‘vile, commie mayor’ Mamdani

Spencer Pratt sparked widespread online reaction over Independence Day weekend after posting a sharp rebuke of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani for using the July 4 holiday to criticize America's history.

Pratt, a former reality TV star who drew attention with his surprise Los Angeles mayoral run, continued his political commentary by targeting Mamdani, who marked the nation's 250th Independence Day by delivering an immigration-themed address from George Washington's desk. Flanked by eight recently naturalized U.S. citizens, Mamdani criticized U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, Elon Musk and what he described as the "arena of supremacy" in the United States.

"As we mark 250 years, what do we see?" Mamdani asked. "We see a city of contradictions within a nation of contradictions. We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world — one where children go to sleep hungry while the world’s first trillionaire hungers for more. We see monopolies that dominate every industry and oligarchs who buy elections. We see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by our undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans. We see a nation whose immense wealth has been built by those with calloused, dirt-streaked hands — those who toil on factory floors and chisel into stone — and we see a nation that has allowed so much of that wealth to be held instead in the soft hands of a precious few."

In a viral response video, Pratt bashed Mamdani, saying, "Notice how the communists always attack your history."

Wearing a T-shirt reading "the anti-socialists social club" and sitting behind a foldout table beside an RV at the site where his home burned down in the Los Angeles Palisades fire last year, Pratt remarked, "We all had to sit and watch that vile, commie mayor sit on the wrong side of our founding father’s desk to try to lecture us about our own history."

"The communists must attack your history," he continued. "Why? Because history is what anchors you, it’s what makes us attached to something."

He referred to communism as "an evil, anti-human religion," seeking to "destroy what makes us human."

"The communist destroys your history so he can take your home and rebuild it in his image. That’s why it is your patriotic duty to celebrate today unashamed. It’s ok to love America, not only is it ok to love America, it’s necessary to love America. We are the only bulwark against tyranny on this earth," said Pratt.

Amid the burned ruins of his Los Angeles home, Pratt urged Americans to "think of your country like a home. What makes your home special? … It’s the memories you have there."

"Erasing history is how you demoralize people, how you unmoor them and detach them from their society so you can take it from them and rewrite it in your image," he said.

Pratt granted that America’s history is not perfect, saying, "our history is messy, our history is violent" but "bad times are part of what makes us stronger, a part of what makes us who we are."

Turning his fire back to Mamdani, Pratt said, "he has no place to rewrite our history and lecture us about what our country stands for."

"As a country, we are batting 1,000. Not only is it a miracle that this radical experiment in self-governance even survived past 1776, but we are the champions of the world, be proud of that, be proud of your history," he said.

During his address, Mamdani, a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in Uganda, said that every American has "the power to determine what America means."

"The powerful have always known their answer. America, in their view, is an arena of supremacy where only a select few are allowed freedom," Mamdani said. "Where not all are created equal. America, if you ask them, becomes less the more people it welcomes. America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit. How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal. At every moment in our past, those who led through exclusion and isolation have tried to win power and enrich themselves by turning us against one another."

He also remarked, "We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, more powerful than everyone else. The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here nothing is fixed into place."

"The frontier may be closed, we may have walked on the moon, but the work of fulfilling the values first enshrined in the Declaration of Independence — that work endures, my friends, and it belongs to us all. It belongs too to our newest Americans, those standing here with me today."
