Yippee ki-yay Zohran!
“Die Hard” actor Robert Davi unloaded on Mayor Zohran Mamdani in a fiery social media video, bashing the socialist Democrat for erasing New York’s Italian-American heritage after City Hall released a map of immigrant enclaves that omitted Little Italy.
The map, titled “New York City Immigrant Enclaves,” identified neighborhoods including Little Palestine, Little Egypt and Little Africa, but ignored historic Little Italy and several traditionally Irish and Jewish immigrant areas.
“My grandparents came from Sicily and Naples and they taught me, speak the English. This is America. God bless America,” the 75-year-old Hollywood tough guy raged in a blistering rant posted Friday on X.
“My grandfather enlisted in World War I and got wounded three times … he helped build New York City as an immigrant, an Italian immigrant.
“I was born in Astoria, Queens, you jerk. I understand the lifeblood of New York City and the immigrant populations and all peoples.
Then he gave 35-year-old Mamdani — born in Kampala, Uganda — some advice.

“Go back to where you belong, Mamdani, go back to where you belong and run for office there,” thundered the actor, who lives in Apollo Beach, Fla., and played played FBI Special Agent Big Johnson in “Die Hard.”
Davi also ripped into Mamdani for skipping the traditional installation Mass for New York Archbishop Ronald Hicks at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in February 2026.
“And what you did to the Catholic Church by snubbing the Archbishop. You jerk,” Davi raged. “What you did, snub little Italy, and you wanna take down the statues.”
Only after catching some serious blowback from dozens of groups — including the Italian American Civil Rights League, which accused the mega-left-leaning administration of erasing Italian Americans — Mamdani said his administration now plans to add Little Italy, according to Fox News.
Davi’s scorched-earth rant quickly lit up X, where supporters cheered on the veteran actor.
“I agree with every word,” wrote one commenter on X. “Get rid of these scumbags.”
Another piled on: “As an Iranian; kick out Mamdani from office. He is very dangerous for USA and the rest of the world.”
“Amen. Stand for American Values or go stand on the line for the next plane out,” a third wrote. “He is a disgrace and should be removed. America for Americans.”
The mayor’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
