The operation Mullin was defending is called ๐๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐จ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ง ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐, a five-week ICE sweep that ran from July 27th through August 29th and resulted in ๐,๐๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ across New York state, including violent felons with existing criminal records (Department of Homeland Security).
Mullin didn’t stop at the governor. He also went after New York City’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, accusing him of trying to cut NYPD’s budget by $๐๐ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐จ๐ง while refusing to let local police cooperate with federal agents under the ๐๐๐(๐ ) ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ โ the exact partnership that lets local cops help ICE remove criminal aliens.
This is the pattern in every sanctuary state: officials release violent criminals back onto the street, then feign outrage when the federal government does the job they refused to do. Hochul terminated New York’s 287(g) agreements outright โ the tool that could have kept those 13,000 individuals off the street in the first place.
