Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, said in a Fox News Sunday interview that he does not support abolishing the Senate, erasing U.S. borders or replacing the Supreme Court. He said abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement is the most acceptable part of the DSA platform for mainstream America, and that he is proud to be a DSA member. The interview was recorded Wednesday and aired Sunday. The DSA platform calls for abolishing the Senate, which some experts believe cannot be done through a constitutional amendment.
