Mamdani Urges Democrats to Embrace Abolish ICE as Delaney Hall Protests Intensify

Summary
Zohran Mamdani said Democrats should stop treating “Abolish ICE” as politically toxic, arguing on MSNBC that the party needs a more “uncompromising” vision.
Delaney Hall protests in Newark and what he described as abusive conditions inside the ICE facility drove that stance, with Mamdani saying the agency’s cruelty is beyond reform.
The New York City mayor tied the message to local policy, defending sanctuary-city rules and a February executive order that bars cooperation with ICE without a judicial warrant.
Mamdani said the broader way to win over skeptics is by delivering results, pointing to plans for free child care for 200 two-year-olds this year and 12,000 next year.
