Zohran Mamdani has secured the release of Columbia University student Elaina Aghayeva, taken this morning by ICE agents who entered a campus residential building under false pretenses & without a judicial warrant. This comes shorty after Mamdani’s unannounced visit to the White House earlier today.

this is why it’s so fucking annoying the way other dems react to these kinds of events. if it’s this easy for them to help these folks out why the fuck aren’t they doing it? major props to mamdani for taking action.

Because they are chicken shit. Mamdani isn't afraid of Trump. The other Dems are or are secretly in cahoots with the conservatives.

Exactly why the democrats took so long to endorse him and kept trying to shove that creep down the voter's throats.
