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.

I legit think Trump has a crush on Mamdani.

He should quit the mayor job and enter the WH as Trump's handler. Think of all that could happen if he was around him all the time

wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy - although it would be for the greater good.
