Trump border czar Tom Homan<\/a> said Tuesday he has had no communication with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, accusing the newly inaugurated democratic socialist of refusing to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.<\/p>\n

“He’s made it clear he’s not going to work with ICE,” Homan told “America’s Newsroom.”<\/p>\n

“When Mayor Adams was here\u2026 we had an agreement that he would allow us back into Rikers Island<\/a> to arrest those public safety threats in the safety and security of a jail, but the city council shut it down.”<\/p>\n

Homan went on to cite a meeting last year between President Donald Trump and Mamdani, saying it remains unclear whether the mayor will change course and help bring alleged threats to society to justice.<\/p>\n

“We’ll see down the road if he’s going to help arrest public safety threats,” he said.<\/p>\n

“We’re not asking any NYPD to be immigration officers. We’re asking their cops to work with our cops to remove national security threats and public safety threats in New York City.”<\/p>\n

Secretary Kristi Noem<\/a> offered similar remarks last week, telling reporters that talks involving Mamdani and the Department of Homeland Security are reportedly not going well.<\/p>\n

“We’re hoping the mayor will work with us to get these criminal elements, and especially gang members and terrorist organizations, out of New York City,” Noem<\/a> said during a news conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I know he and the president had a productive conversation. Our communication at the Department of Homeland Security has not been productive with the mayor’s office or with the NYPD<\/a>, but we want to continue those conversations so we can work together on success.”<\/p>\n

Mamdani’s office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.<\/p>\n

Mamdani has espoused anti-ICE rhetoric<\/a> since rising to prominence in the race for New York City mayor last year, encouraging those confronted by the agency to “know [their] rights” in a video last month and listing ways to handle potentially risky encounters with agents.<\/p>\n
