A campaign staffer for Zohran Mamdani was apparently caught on hidden camera admitting “who gives a s–t” what police officers think of the Democratic mayoral nominee.

“They’re city employees. You get told what to do, shut up. When did you get an opinion?” Robert Akleh, a progressive political consultant and the citywide canvass manager for the campaign, can be seen telling an “undercover” operative for conservative podcaster Steven Crowder about NYPD cops’ opinion of the front-runner socialist candidate.

Video clips cut together and posted online by Crowder also capture the high-ranking field organizer going on tangents about Gov. Kathy Hochul, “Israel supporting” Democrats and his disgust toward wealthy people.

“They also don’t understand why everybody hates them. Or why they lose elections now and why they can’t control the narrative anymore,” Akleh told the “Louder with Crowder” spy of billionaires — before invoking the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, allegedly by Luigi Mangione, the footage shows.

“Or why somebody gets popped in the back of the head in Midtown. You’re not treating people fairly,” he said.

Akleh appears to have been recorded making the statements to a woman at bars and elsewhere on different occasions in August and September.

The footage also shows him bragging about the Democratic Socialists of America and their lefty progressive allies extracting an endorsement out of Hochul by threatening the unpopular moderate governor with a primary challenge backed by Mamdani’s 60,000-strong volunteer army.

“She gets it. She’s not stupid. She gets it,” Akleh said in a clip.

“She got the word. She found out, she done found out that we’re the Democrat,” he bragged in a clip from after Hochul’s endorsement of Mamdani last month, also acknowledging that they’d also gotten endorsements out of Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie (D-Bronx) and state Sen. Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins (D-Westchester).

“We have the governor. We have the assembly. The state senate will bend too,” he said.

Akleh, who previously worked for the campaigns of DSA Reps. Jamaal Bowman and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, was also caught in the footage seemingly explaining the Mamdani campaign was targeting Muslim voters to get them to turn out against “a bunch of f—ing Israel-supporting politicians.”

“You organize the mosques. You get the Imams to tell people to go vote. We get Zohran to go there and talk to them. That’s how we do it,” he said.

“We had young lesbian white women go and hand out fliers at a mosque.”

At one point, the woman asks:  “What do the police think of Mamdani because I know that’s like, a little contentious?”

“Who gives a s–t what they think?” he responds, before ranting that public employees like police officers are supposed to be non-partisan.

The footage comes as Mamdani is trying to keep his base energized through the election, while also making friends with the very billionaires, establishment Democrats and law enforcement types his staffer evidently detests.

In an interview on Fox News this week, Mamdani himself finally issued an apology to New York’s finest for calling them “racist, anti-queer & a major threat to public safety” and for demanding the agency be defunded in 2020 Tweets.

Since his shocking primary win in June, he’s also been setting up meetings with business leaders like the billionaires who make up the Partnership for New York and centrist Dems like Mike Bloomberg and Hakeem Jeffries.

Mamdani’s campaign, which is still employing Akleh, downplayed his role on Friday as a “junior” staffer and called his comments “regretful.”

“One of our junior staff members was secretly recorded by a right-wing organization, where he made some regretful comments absolutely not reflective of Zohran or the campaign,” spokesperson Dora Pekec told The Post in a statement.

The staffer has not been involved in high-level policy conversations, a campaign insider said.

Campaign finance records show Mamdani’s campaign has paid Akleh around $40,000 so far this election cycle.

The Post has reached out to NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch. A spokesperson for Hochul declined to comment.
