New: Mamdani will hand out campaign literature with Hochul in Brooklyn tomorrow — the mayor's first in-person appearance to boost the moderate Democrat’s reelection.
They'll be back together in Brooklyn Sunday for a Hochul canvass launch. w/ @NickReisman politico.com/news/2026/10/22…

Detained immigrants with serious medical conditions were told they will be deported to African countries where they have no family or ties. Held at Krome detention center in Florida, they were told they were headed there this week, though not which country.miamiherald.com/news/nation-…

Mamdani's on the City Hall steps to call for the passage of @tiffany_caban's Delivery Protection Act.
It's a bit of an unusual dynamic, as Speaker Menin has yet to chime in on the bill. Mamdani hasn't done a lot of public pushing for Council legislation like this as mayor.

When asked to comment on my recent @NewYorker story, ICE said it doesn't use white SUVs in York, PA. That contradicts multiple witnesses I intervened (as well as photos I had access to). But a reader pointed me to this footage from the York Daily Record: ydr.com/videos/news/local/20…

Something I find really interesting in the Big Bend wall injunction case –– the gov't has quietly shifted from insisting that the Big Bend is "an area of high illegal entry" urgently in need of wall to a long-term view, where no wall means it's vulnerable to future border crime

NYC immigration advocates have set up an "altar" for people shot by ICE.
It's outside a Flatbush apartment building where they say a Haitian man, Roberto Lamour, was recently arrested by ICE.

The Department of Homeland Security is openly engaging in an unprecedented, partisan campaign to intervene in the midterm elections. My latest piece @NewYorker surveys the effort and looks at what it means at the local level: newyorker.com/news/the-polit…

JUST IN: Significant decision from the 10th Circuit: the 6 month "reasonable" period of detention for ICE detainees with final orders of removal does *not* reset over time.
The Trump admin had argued the 6 months reset everytime ICE redetained someone.
