New York mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has fired back at Elon Musk after he said 'people will die' over the appointment of Lilian Bonsignore as the Chief of the NYC Fire Department. On December 27, Elon Musk posted on X reacting to the news, saying: 'People will die because of this. Proven experience matters when lives are at stake.' Responding to Musk, Mamdani replied: 'Experience does matter, which is why I appointed the person who spent more than 30 years at EMS. You know, the workforce that addresses at least 70% of all calls coming into FDNY?' #ElonMusk #ZohranMamdani #LGBTQNews
