Nithya Raman is a member of the Los Angeles city council who is running for mayor on the far left. She wants to be the Zohran Mamdani of LA.
That’s not even an exaggeration, by the way. She has the same political philosophy as Mamdani, is supported by all the same types of people, and like Mamdani, she was born outside of the United States but feels completely entitled to run one of our biggest cities.
Recently, some activists set up a homeless encampment outside of her house. They were trying to make a point about her support for occupy-style tent encampments. She had the nerve to be offended by this.
The New York Post reports:
Brutal karma for Nithya Raman as she goes ballistic over staged homeless encampment outside her home
Socialist LA mayoral candidate Nithya Raman is getting hammered online after appearing visibly rattled by a staged homeless encampment protest outside her own home.
“I’m glad my kids didn’t have to see that,” Raman told comedian Adam Conover on his podcast released Wednesday before adding, “I thought this campaign was going to be about bike lanes and transportation.”
Raman was referring to a staged Memorial Day protest outside Raman’s Silver Lake-area home.
Footage from the stunt shows homeless people climbing out of tents, staging an open-air barbecue and one individual walking around carrying a bucket as neighbors recorded the scene.
The podcast was quickly shared on online with comment exploding because Raman has spent years defending homeless encampments near schools, parks and neighborhoods across Los Angeles while opposing tougher enforcement restrictions.
Critics immediately accused the Democratic Socialist councilmember of showing a stunning lack of self-awareness as families across Los Angeles continue dealing with encampments outside homes, playgrounds and schools.
Here’s the clip. The video is a little wonky but stay with it:
When it’s her own kids, Nithya Raman suddenly cares where homeless encampments are set up.
But when it’s your kids near schools and parks? She votes to keep the tents there. pic.twitter.com/l3vba2byws

A few weeks back, Raman was booed by her own constituents for thinking that homeless camps near schools aren’t that big of a deal. Watch:

If this woman becomes mayor of Los Angeles, the city would be in even worse shape than it is now, and that’s saying something.
