ICE Arrests Mayoral Candidate, Sparks Outrage | JQJO

NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander was arrested by ICE agents while accompanying an immigrant to court. Lander's arrest, along with that of other Democratic officials, is seen as part of a broader crackdown on immigration and a sign of authoritarianism. The incident garnered widespread condemnation and boosted Lander's visibility in the mayoral race, where he's running on a progressive platform. Despite the arrest, Lander remains committed to advocating for immigrants' rights.
