Episode notes
Abolish ICE As A Humanity Argument
- New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani frames Abolish ICE as a humane corrective to terrorizing enforcement practices.
- He argues the agency fails its stated purpose and regularly harms communities regardless of legal status.
Resetting Policy To Rebuild Trust
- Mamdani revoked a prior anti-Semitism executive order to reset City Hall and avoid politicized motives.
- He couples that with new commitments: more hate-crime funding and security for Jewish New Yorkers.
Fixing A Bridge Bump Wins Hearts
- Mamdani fixed a treacherous bump on the Williamsburg Bridge to show rapid, tangible local government action.
- Hosts note such small wins build goodwill among everyday New Yorkers far more than lofty promises.
