New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) just made it a whole lot easier for anyone to look up the names and home addresses of wealthy New Yorkers who own second properties in the city.
How? By publishing a searchable database of properties that could fall under the new pied-à-terre tax, complete with the owners’ full names and addresses.
The list covers unoccupied, non-primary residences worth more than $1 million across the five boroughs.
The New York Post reports that the move by the administration is "effectively doxxing thousands of wealthy New Yorkers."
I’m almost certain that those individuals are thrilled to have their potentially empty homes' addresses advertised to unhinged “tax the rich” leftists.
The city published a list of all properties -- and the names of the owners -- that *could be* subject to the new pied a terre tax in a very easy to search Excel sheet: https://t.co/d3iAikgERk https://t.co/cRjMmprBob

Mamdani’s ‘Happy Tax Day’ Video Backfires Big Time Thanks to His Family’s Massive Uganda Compound
For property owners who already felt targeted by the city’s new tax push, having their personal information posted online is only pouring fuel on the fire, which is the intent, really. Mamdani is literally trying to drive wealthy individuals out of the city that serves as the economic engine of the nation.
It fits a clear pattern of taunting. RedState’s Nick Arama detailed how Mamdani recently mocked second-home owners online by gloating that notification letters for the new pied-à-terre tax were already in the mail and that “you’ve got mail.”
Arama accurately described the derisive message as "gross," which might as well be an evergreen description going forward for Mamdani's economically illiterate reign.
If you have a second home in New York City worth more than $5M, check your mailbox when you’re back in the five boroughs — because you've got mail.

Today, we sent notification letters to property owners, letting them know that our new pied-à-terre tax is coming soon.
The best…
That same taunting style first appeared months earlier in the mayor’s “Happy Tax Day” video, filmed outside billionaire Ken Griffin’s penthouse like a low-budget stalker movie.
"When I ran for mayor, I said that I was going to tax the rich," Mamdani said in the clip, before getting up close and personal with the viewer, tapping on the camera lens. "Well, today, we're taxing the rich."

What an absolute cretin.
The real-world cost of Mamdani's silly, grade-school-level “tax the rich” crusade was laid bare just two weeks earlier, when a Citizen Budget Commission (CBC) study exposed that New York’s share of America’s millionaires had already plunged from 12.7 percent in 2010 to 8.7 percent in 2022.
That exodus alone wiped out nearly $11 billion in personal income tax revenue in a single year.
I repeat: Economic. Illiterate.
Mamdani's public gloating, targeted tax hikes against those who employ people, and now a searchable address database to punish the successful will only accelerate an exodus the city can least afford.
