Federal immigration authorities arrested a Columbia University student early Thursday, triggering protests on campus along with allegations that agents had entered the university-owned residence under false pretenses.

Just hours after detaining student Ellie Aghayeva, though, the federal government abruptly reversed course, permitting her to walk free after the apparent intervention by Donald Trump.

In a social media post Thursday afternoon, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he expressed concerns about the arrest during an unrelated meeting with Trump, who then agreed to release her immediately.

Calling it now, Mandani has the pee tape.

A beloved progressive reaching across the aisle, but not to slap his opponent? Sounds very neoliberal corporate stooge of him.

Trump crushin on Mamdani is so funny

C'mon, with the revelations from Epstein files the pee tape looks quite tame.

Anyway with how he looks at Mamdani he either is attracted (he sucked off Bubba after all, and Mamdani is attractive looking) or through dementia he thinks Mamdani is a Saudi Prince ready to bribe him.

Weird way to spell "pragmatic and effective."

I always assumed the pee tape involved underage girls, so is probably in the Epstein files.

Trump is a reflection of those that hold power in our society. It's why he is such a massive piece of shit. The wealthy rulers of this country are exactly who formed him.

Mamdani is just one of the first people that actually wants to improve that society for everyone. He has enough power and charisma to play to Trump's ego and does it well.

I swear some leftist are in a cult of just always wanting to get dunked on.

Exactly, Mamdani is goat for that reason

Also for the "ones in charge" its a 99% vs 1% situation (Realistically 97% vs 3%). The people working together and showing up to do wins every time from numbers alone mix in brainstorming and collaborating and it makes it way easier to win. Many people doing already but the more the better!!

And again, with the revelations is quite tame. There's that whole Lake Michigan thing.

I know libs like to do this, but have you really not considered the difference between pushing a demand and preemptively capitulating? Talking to a Republican does not a corporate stooge make.

The more likely explanation is that Trump is a senile old man and just agrees with the last person that talks to him.

Yeah it's almost like the office of the NYC Mayor has something on him

And the whole forcibly raping a 13 year old girl while she was tied down thing.
