Billionaire Ken Griffin scales back NYC jobs in response to Mamdani’s ‘tax the rich’ antics — sparking fears wealthy exodus has begun

There they go, Zo!

Hedge fund titan Ken Griffin revealed this week he’s scaling back jobs in the Big Apple as a “direct consequence” of Zohran Mamdani’s “tax the rich” antics — stoking fears that the well-to-do are starting to flee the socialist mayor and taking their cash with them.

Mamdani poked the bearish billionaire in a recent social media video that used Griffin’s record-breaking $238 million Midtown penthouse as a backdrop to drum up support for a proposed tax on luxury second homes in the city.

An appalled Griffin first threatened to scrap a $6 billion Park Avenue development for his Citadel hedge fund, then told CNBC on Tuesday that the “creepy” video spurred him to expand his firm’s hub in Florida.

“We will add far more jobs in Miami over the next decade as an immediate and direct consequence of the mayor’s poor decision here with respect to his posting of that video,” Griffin said.
