HOLY CRAP: New York’s mayor used Islamic scripture to bind city policy and keep federal immigration law off city ground.⠀Zohran Mamdani told the Interfaith Breakfast, “Islam [is] a religion built upon a narrative of migration.” He said Muhammad “was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina.”⠀He quoted the Quran: “As for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we shall surely bless them with a good home in this world.” He added the hadith that Islam “began as something strange” and “glad tidings to the strangers.”⠀He called ICE “masked agents” who “visit terror upon our neighbors.” Then he signed Executive Order 13. It bars ICE from schools, shelters, hospitals, and other city property without a judicial warrant and limits data-sharing with federal officers.He's clearly never read the Constitution.⠀On Monday he sued with Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, and others to block a public-charge rule that weighs Medicaid, SNAP, and housing aid for green cards. The rule is set for Sept. 18. Letitia James filed a parallel suit.⠀Rep. Keith Self said that is a perversion of the oath to the Constitution. He said sharia and political Islam have no place in America.
