It’s been a week of ridiculous performances by NYC liberals

What’s another starving BS artist?

Cynthia Nixon’s daughter Seph Mozes, who identifies as a man, is going on a hunger strike for Gaza — but really for attention.

“He and five of his compatriots are doing a hunger strike in Chicago … ,” a proud Nixon told Newsweek, adding that her 28-year-old child has no “illusions that he’s going to end the war, but I think he wants to do everything he can.”

To earn a merit badge in the art of self-congratulations, apparently.

Maybe Nixon’s offspring had the misfortune of seeing the actress in bed with Rosie O”Donnell in the third-season premiere of “And Just Like That.” Such a sight would put anyone off eating.

But it’s probably more like the famous anti-drug PSA from the ’80s: “I learned it by watching you, Mom.”

Shortly after Hamas’ October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, Nixon — who ran an unsuccessful campaign for New York governor in 2018 — boldly announced she was joining lawmakers, including current nutjob mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, in a five-day fast supporting ceasefire in Gaza.

Nixon, however, committed to just two days of the five — a full 48 hours of abstaining from her beloved cinnamon raisin bagels with lox. She knows sacrifice and solidarity.

It’s only fitting that Nixon’s most recent proclamation capped off a banner week of performative activism by New York City progressives in search of folk-hero status.

One pol was arrested, another cried and there were many self-righteous tweets posted with the presumed expectation that they’ll end up in the Smithsonian one day.

It all kicked off last Saturday with the No Kings anti-Trump protest, which was a social mixer for Boomer hippies. Did it mean anything? Like its predecessor the pink pussy hat marches, this was a collective tantrum against a duly-elected president. And maybe a guarantee that participants would get in their 10,000 steps for the day.

Only days later, City Comptroller and Dem mayoral candidate Brad Lander desperately tried to revive his rotting corpse of a campaign by getting arrested on camera — not the first time.

In this instance, he pathetically tangled with ICE officers after demanding to see a warrant for someone being detained outside federal immigration court. Clinging to the guy’s shoulder, he made a clear provocation to the officers to cuff him. And they made his day.

Lander thought it would be a profile in courage. But it produced a series of unbelievable images that made him look like the town drunk being hauled out of his local watering hole for getting handsy with a waitress. In one, his bulging eyes rolled back into his head, he resembles Rodney Dangerfield. No respect!

He was sprung by Gov. Kathy Hochul, who seems to only visit New York City for photo ops. Who can forget her riding the subway to tout its safety … on the same day a woman was incinerated by an illegal migrant on an F Train.

This time, our Democratic guv marched into the federal building and collected Lander, who was released without charges. She then tweeted a photo of them defiantly walking together, captioned with the state slogan “Excelsior” — Latin for “ever upward.” In Hochul-ese, it translates to “empty political posturing.”

After his publicity stunt, Lander was greeted like a conquering hero by lefty loonies including Public Advocate Jumaane Williams and absentee Lieutenant Governor Antonio Delgado, who posted a photo of himself hugging the candidate and touting his “courage.”

Do these people know that we can’t even buy toothpaste in this city without buzzing a worker to unlock it? But hey, they got their photo op.

Our pols are severely misguided. They regularly pledge to fight against Trump rather than fighting for everyday New Yorkers to have order and an affordable city.

The rotten cherry on top was Mamdani — a political novice but a seasoned performer.

He tried to blunt a blossoming new antisemitic scandal, fueled by his use of the phrase “globalize the intifada” … by pivoting into his own victimhood.

“I get messages that say the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim. I get threats on my life,” he said, choking back tears.

Even the mere threat of political violence is an abomination, full stop. Just ask Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, who had his house burned in an attack police said was driven by antisemitism. Or the families of the young couple killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum in DC, allegedly by a man who said, “I did it for Gaza.”

But if Mamdani is going to cry every time he hears or sees some nasty words, perhaps being mayor of New York — which requires a firm hand and a thick hide — is not the job for him.

The Big Apple has enough actors and clowns. Let’s get some serious adults in here to run things.
