Zohran backer gives Brooklyn wave to NY’s finest, shares photo online
A volunteer for mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s campaign isn’t shy about showcasing his hatred for New York’s Finest.
Failed Democratic Assembly candidate Julien Segura posted an offensive image, showing him flipping off 11 NYPD officers on Sept. 26, outside the Federal Plaza Immigration Court in Lower Manhattan, where police arrested 15 anti-ICE demonstrators.

The image was accompanied by audio from N.W.A.’s 1988 track “F–k Tha Police,” and the caption read, “All my homies hate the SRG” — short for “strategic response group,” a specialized team of NYPD officers who police protests.
Segura, 28, claims on X to be a “local political organizer and activist who has spent his career committed to electing strong young leaders in New York.”
He began supporting Mamdani in May, when he encouraged his social media followers to list Mamdani as one of their top choices in the recent mayoral primary.
He also handed out Mamdani fliers during the leadup to the Democratic primary, and knocked on doors for him, sources said.
Last year, Segura ran for Manhattan’s 71st Assembly District to represent Harlem, Washington Heights, and Inwood, but was defeated by incumbent Assemblyman Alfred Taylor in the Democratic primary.
Daniel Kurzyna, Chief of Staff for Councilman Bob Holden (D-Maspeth), blasted Segura as “a grifter” who “has no clue what he’s doing.”
Added Kurzyna: “That photo of him flipping off the police tells you everything about his character and judgment. Even in a city full of second-rate operatives, he sets a new low in irrelevance and incompetence, and anyone who hires or has hired this loser needs to rethink their lives.”
Segura is not a member of Mamdani’s staff, according to city Campaign Finance Board records.
On LinkedIn, Segura cites his experience as a political strategist who has managed several campaigns in New York City and Georgia, where he was a a team lead for the Care in Action PAC, which supported Kamala Harris’ failed 2024 presidential campaign.
Segura showed no remorse Friday, telling The Post the officers were to blame for his actions.
“I have inherent respect for anyone entering public service until they abuse their authority,” Segura said. “Allowing and abetting federal overreach is something that I have disdain for.”
Mamdani’s campaign did not respond to requests for comment.
