NYC mayoral aide Cea Weaver who says whites owning houses is racist bursts into TEARS when asked about her mother's $1.4M home…A woke aide to New York City's new socialist mayor burst out crying when confronted over her assertion that it is racist for white people to own homes, despite her own mother owning a $1.4M house. Cea Weaver, who runs Mayor Zohran Mamdani's Office To Protect Tenants, was overcome with emotion when confronted outside her apartment in Brooklyn on Wednesday morning.The 37-year-old began running down the street after seeing reporters outside her home, then said “No” through tears when asked if she wanted to comment on her professor mother Celia Appleton's ownership of the $1.4 million property in fast-gentrifying Nashville.Weaver appeared to be walking towards a nearby subway station, but then turned back and ran inside her home, which has a ‘FREE PALESTINE’ poster taped to one of its windows. She was subsequently seen peering out the same window with the poster in it. Weaver previously tweeted that “homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy” and that “homeownership is racist” in social media posts that also urged people to “impoverish the white middle class.”In another Twitter missive from 2018, Weaver wrote: “There is no such thing as a good gentrifier, only people who are actively working on projects to dismantle white supremacy and capitalism and people who aren't.”Weaver further called on people to “seize private property” and called for the election of communist lawmakers. The privileged former Bryn Mawr College student's stunning hypocrisy was uncovered by reporters on Wednesday when it was revealed her mother owned a gorgeous home in Nashville worth $1.4 million. The Tennessee city is America's fastest-gentrifying.But Weaver gave no indication to her family wealth and has now refused to say whether she will ask her mother to give up her private property.Weaver lives in Crown Heights, a historically black neighborhood whose longtime residents have also been priced out by white newcomers.In a press conference on Tuesday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he stood by Weaver, but his team is understood to have been caught by surprise by her anti-white tweets.Weaver deleted her X account after her old posts were unearthed by anti-woke campaigner Michelle Tandler. The Trump administration said it is aware of Weaver's anti-white tweets and warned she faces a federal investigation if any evidence of anti-Caucasian discrimination emerges. Mayor Mamdani swept to victory in a stunning political upset in November 2025 thanks mainly to his vow to tackle the soaring cost of living in New York City. He vowed to freeze rent on the Big Apple's one million rent stabilized homes that house around 2.5 million people, 30 percent of the city's population.
