Communist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani Thinks He Can Stop President Trump’s Deportation Powers – Vows to Shield Illegal Alien Haitians and Syrians After SCOTUS Hands Trump Admin Major Victory * The Gateway Pundit * by Jim Hᴏft

Radical far-left New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is openly defying the Supreme Court and President Donald Trump’s lawful authority to enforce federal immigration law.
In a video statement just hours after the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling in Mullin v. Doe cleared the way for the Trump administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian and Syrian nationals, Mamdani vowed “solidarity” with illegal aliens facing deportation and directed them to a city hotline for help staying in the country illegally.
The high court’s decision allows the Department of Homeland Security to end TPS protections for roughly 350,000 Haitians and thousands of Syrians nationwide, people whose temporary status was always meant to be just that: temporary. Lower courts had blocked the terminations, but the Supreme Court lifted those injunctions, ruling that federal judges generally cannot second-guess the Secretary’s determinations on country conditions.
Mamdani, the self-described communist and Democratic Socialist mayor who has repeatedly called for abolishing ICE and turned New York into an even deeper sanctuary city, responded with pure resistance.
WATCH:Mamdani: “We saw today the Supreme Court make a decision that is putting so many people’s lives in jeopardy. I just came back from a rally with 1199, where I stood alongside a number of Haitian New Yorkers who are concerned about what this means for their status in our city. Frankly, this city—the one that we love—is one that has been built by so many from so many different parts of the world. That includes our Haitian brothers and sisters and our Syrian brothers and sisters. We stand here ready to be in solidarity with all of those who are concerned by today’s decision.
Beyond just language of solidarity, we need actions of solidarity. What that means when it comes to our city is this: If you are worried about what this means for your status, if you’re worried about what this means for your family, I would encourage you to call our Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs hotline. You can do so at 1-800-354-0365. Again, that’s 1-800-354-0365.
Many of you know this is a city of 8.5 million people. More than 3 million of us were born elsewhere. I’m one of them. We’re a city that’s proud of our immigrant heritage. And when we think about, especially, what Haitian New Yorkers have had to deal with—not just for weeks or months or years, but, frankly, for decades—we have seen a cruelty that has become normalized.
To have a people who, frankly, taught the world about freedom have their own freedom put in jeopardy by the actions of a Supreme Court and a federal administration is not only cruel, it’s something that we will never accept. So we stand here as New Yorkers, proud of standing in solidarity and proud to do everything that we can to keep people in their homes and to keep people together.”
