DSA demands Mamdani fire police commissioner over ICE shooting

After ICE shot a man in Marble Hill, NYC's Democratic Socialists demand Jessica Tisch's removal or her expulsion of ICE from the city.

What to know

  • The DSA, which backed Mamdani's election, issued an ultimatum after ICE shot a 28-year-old man in Marble Hill: fire Police Commissioner Tisch or she must remove ICE from NYC.
  • The DSA accuses the NYPD of collaborating with ICE and abusing protesters; the mayor's office says road-clearing was standard procedure to prevent danger.
  • Mamdani rejected the demand, stating Tisch remains police commissioner and the administration will review Thursday's events.
  • This represents the largest public clash between Mamdani and the DSA since he won office 10 months ago with their political backing.

“She's had 10 months. We've tried to give space, but we would like to see results at this point.”
