Mamdani just sued the Trump administration over green cards and welfare — and he said people could die if the rule stands. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, with Letitia James and a stack of blue-city mayors, is in federal court to block the public charge rule. Starting now, immigration officers can weigh SNAP, Medicaid, and other benefits when deciding who gets a green card. The administration’s point is simple and old: People coming here should be able to support themselves. Mamdani’s point is the opposite. He says up to four million people could unenroll from health coverage — including 1.8 million children — and that premature deaths in New York immigrant communities could jump. He called the rule vague, cruel, and a century of law thrown out.Pat also covered:  Today is National Cheeseburger Day — McDonald’s and others are running free or cheap burger deals MrBeast’s Super Bowl commercial puzzle is finally solved — Colin Sanders cracked the $1 million hunt Zelenskyy says Ukraine can’t hold an election while the war is still on U.S. gas is over $4.40 a gallon and climbing — midterms are seven weeks out Mike Pence says after Jan. 6 he told Trump, “I’m praying for you.” Trump’s reply: “Don’t bother.”Does expecting a green card applicant to stand on their own feet sound like cruelty to you?
