New York assemblyman confronts Homan over activist's arrest
New York Assembly member Zohran Mamdani confronted border czar Tom Homan in Albany on Wednesday. Mamdani shouted questions about the detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University student and anti-Israel activist arrested by ICE agents. Khalil, a permanent U.S. resident, was detained amid a crackdown on illegal immigration. His arrest has drawn criticism, with Mamdani accusing Homan of supporting mass deportations and undermining the First Amendment. Homan was in Albany to support state Republicans in repealing the Green Light law, which allows undocumented immigrants to obtain driver's licenses. Mamdani expressed concern over Khalil's detention, highlighting the impact on his family.
