New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani has reverted to his old ways of smearing ICE agents and vowing to stand against President Trump's efforts to remove illegal aliens– all of whom are criminals– from the country, unless they are arrested in "extreme violent felony cases" first. 

So, until an illegal alien, who should have never been here in the first place, murders an American or violently rapes and murders a woman or child, New York City will continue to protect them.

"New York will always be a city of immigrants," Mamdani said on X less than 24 hours after meeting with Trump.

President Trump hosted Mamdani at the White House on Friday afternoon, and the two emerged, appearing highly optimistic about their agreement to work together for the benefit of New York. Trump, shockingly, even told reporters that he expects to work with Mamdani on crime and illegal immigration.

Trump appeared to be seriously impressed by the incoming leftwing mayor and heaped praise on him throughout the meeting, even shielding him from adverse questions. "I think he is going to surprise some conservative people, actually," Trump said.

However, not surprisingly, Mamdani's incoming Chief of Staff, Elle Bisgaard-Church, told Spectrum News the next day that Mamdani "made clear that we uphold sanctuary laws in our city, and all immigrants will be safe in our city," accusing immigration officials of "inhumane" practices.

"Our sanctuary city laws allow cooperation in extreme violent felony cases, and that is something where I think we have alignment," she added in a clip shared by Mamdani on X.

This appears to signal that Mamdani will tell ICE to pound sand when illegal aliens commit nonviolent crimes like driving under the influence, theft, burglary, fraud, vandalism, drug possession, or drug trafficking.

WATCH:

Bisgaard-Church: We certainly were clear about our disagreements in the room, and the mayor-elect made clear that we uphold sanctuary laws in our city, and all immigrants will be safe in our city. We also made very clear that we feel there has been inhumane raids just this week.

So it will be a future conversation with the President, but we, again, grounded an overall desire and the acknowledgement that our sanctuary city laws allow cooperation in extreme violent felony cases, and that is something where I think we have alignment.
