NYC socialist challenger storms off live interview amid past posts scrutiny
Darializa Avila Chevalier, backed by Zohran Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America, abruptly walked out of a radio interview after being pressed about archived social media posts. She had just defeated incumbent Rep. Adriano Espaillat in New York City's 13th Congressional District Democratic primary and will face the general election, but her campaign continues to grapple with scrutiny of past comments on U.S. institutions, Dominican nationalism, and deportations.
