Claws out for Cuomo, Mamdani at debate as rivals dig into their missteps, weaknesses
NEW YORK — Mayoral candidates Brad Lander and Andrew Cuomo tussled at the second Democratic primary debate Thursday evening over the former governor's description of immigrants — an emotional flashpoint as protests over ICE arrests grip cities around the country. Zohran Mamdani, who is trailing in second place behind Cuomo in most polls, also went after the former governor repeatedly for mispronouncing his name. And the former New York governor returned fire, insisting the 33-year-old Mamdani is too young and inexperienced for the difficult job of running the nation's largest city. The clashes revealed cleaner lines of attack against Cuomo a week after the first debate — as well as how candidates hoping to shrink Cuomo's polling lead are seizing every opening, big and small, in an effort to weaken the frontrunner in the final days of the Democratic primary. Lander didn't relegate his broadsides against Cuomo to one topic. He honed in on the sexual harassment allegations against the former governor — which state Attorney General Letitia James concluded in a report and Cuomo denies — and his management of the MTA. 'The MTA goes through a rigorous contracting process,' Cuomo responded. 'They should never have hired illegal immigrants, if it is true.' 'What did you call them?' Lander, the progressive city comptroller, quickly challenged. 'If anyone was undocumented, or they didn't pay the proper wages, I had nothing to do with it,' Cuomo said, rephrasing with a term viewed as typically more acceptable in the city. Lander carried on with his targeting of Cuomo. 'You cheated them out of the prevailing wages they were due and the health care they were due.' Mamdani, a state assemblymember, separately ticked off the record that Cuomo's critics say disqualify him from returning to power, including the sexual harassment allegations that forced him from the statehouse in 2021. But Mamdani's focus on the pronunciation of his name appeared intended to spotlight how some supporters of Cuomo have cast the Muslim immigrant as an outsider. 'I have never had to resign in disgrace. … I have never hounded the 13 women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued for their gynecological records,' Mamdani said. 'And I have never done those things because I am not you, Mr. Cuomo. And furthermore, the name is Mamdani, M-a-m-d-a-n-i, you should learn how to say it, because we've got to get it right.'

Nationwide protests against immigration raids escalate, leading to arrests and curfews
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Protests over federal immigration enforcement raids are flaring up around the country as officials in cities from coast to coast get ready for major demonstrations against President Donald Trump over the weekend. While many demonstrations against Immigration and Customs Enforcement have been peaceful, others led to clashes with police who sometimes used chemical irritants to disperse crowds. Hundreds have been arrested. Volatile protests prompted officials to enforce curfews in Los Angeles and Spokane. Republican governors in Texas and Missouri mobilized National Guard troops to be ready to help law enforcement manage demonstrations in those states. Activists are planning 'No Kings' events across the country on Saturday to coincide with Trump's planned military parade in Washington, D.C. Those were already scheduled but will happen amid the week's rising tensions. The Trump administration said immigration raids and deportations will continue. A look at some recent protests and reactions across the country: Las Vegas Police said 94 people were arrested on 'various criminal and traffic' charges, and four officers were injured in a Wednesday night protest. Some in the estimated crowd of about 800 threw bottles and rocks at officers, police said. A crowd gathered near the city's federal courthouse and blocked several streets before police declared an unlawful assembly. Local media reported that tear gas, flash-bang grenades and rubber bullets were used to disperse the protesters. Chicago Hundreds of demonstrators packed a park plaza near Lake Michigan on Thursday. Veronica Castro, an organizer with the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, urged people to learn how to protect themselves and elected officials to speak out. The group later marched along the city's iconic Michigan Avenue. They were flanked by their own security marshals and Chicago police officers on bicycles and in slow-moving patrol cars. Seattle Hundreds of protesters marched through downtown Seattle Wednesday evening to a federal building where immigration cases are heard. Some of them set a dumpster on fire. The building was covered in graffiti, with 'Abolish ICE Now' written in large letters across its front window. Dozens of officers squared off with protesters near the building, some shooting pepper spray. Some protesters threw fireworks and rocks at officers, police said. Spokane, Washington Mayor Lisa Brown imposed an overnight curfew in downtown Spokane after a protest Wednesday outside an ICE office that ended with more than 30 arrests and police firing pepper balls at the crowd. Brown said the majority of protesters were peaceful. 'We respect their right to peacefully protest and to be upset about federal policies,' she said. 'I have been that person who has protested federal policies and that is a right we have.' San Antonio Several hundred protesters marched through downtown San Antonio and near the historic Alamo mission. Although Texas National Guard troops were seen in the area, the demonstration was mostly peaceful. The Alamo building and plaza, among the state's most popular tourist attractions, was closed to the public. Police guarded the property as the crowd marched nearby. Tucson, Arizona A protest Wednesday outside an ICE office in Tucson, Arizona, turned into a clash between masked security officers and demonstrators who blocked a roadway, threw balloons filled with paint and spray painted anti-ICE graffiti on the gates and walls of the facility. Video clips showed a security officer who was hit with a water bottle. Masked protesters held makeshift shields as they inched toward the security team, and a team member set off what appeared to be a flash-bang device. Anchorage, Alaska A small group of demonstrators held their fourth straight day of protests Thursday outside the Anchorage Correctional Complex, where ICE has detained nearly 40 people. Using a bullhorn aimed at the front doors of the facility, demonstrator Courtney Moore declared, 'ICE out of Anchorage, ICE out of Alaska.' Betsy Holley, a spokesperson with the Alaska Department of Corrections, said 39 people were in ICE custody of ICE at the Anchorage jail. The department said its facilities will be on lockdown through the weekend as a 'proactive response to calls for grassroots protests across the state.' 'No Kings' This week's protests are leading into the scheduled 'No Kings' demonstrations that organizers say are planned in nearly 2,000 locations around the country , according to the movement's website. Organizers plan a flagship march and rally in Philadelphia, but no protests are scheduled to take place in Washington, D.C., where the military parade will be held. In Florida, state Attorney General James Uthmeier warned that any 'No Kings' protesters who become violent will be dealt with harshly. In a message sent Thursday, a Justice Department official told U.S. attorneys across the country to prioritize cases against protesters who engage in violence and destruction. The email cites several potential federal charges, including assault, civil disorder and damage of government property. Governors and the Guard Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe mobilized National Guard troops in their states ahead of the weekend demonstrations. Abbott said more than 5,000 Guard troops and more than 2,000 state police would be ready to help local law enforcement if needed. Several 'No Kings' rallies are planned in Texas, and there were brief clashes between protesters and police in Austin and Dallas this week. Kehoe called his decision a 'precautionary measure' and did not provide specific troop levels or duties. California Gov. Gavin Newsom has publicly sparred with Trump over the president's decision to send National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles, where volatile demonstrations have mostly been contained to a five-block section of downtown. All 22 other Democratic governors signed a statement backing Newsom, calling the deployment 'an alarming abuse of power.' ____ Sophia Tareen in Chicago; Alanna Durkin Richer in Washington; Curt Anderson in Tampa, Florida; Jacques Billeaud in Phoenix; David Lieb in Jefferson City, Missouri; Rio Yamat in Las Vegas; Mark Thiessen in Anchorage, Alaska; and Lisa Baumann and Gene Johnson in Seattle contributed.

Pittsburgh-area woman says ICE agents detained husband at his business
A woman said Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents detained her husband at his business in Carnegie in May. "I watched on the camera, and I saw that ICE had came in and they had zip-tied him and took him out," Brittany Gonzalez said. Gonzalez said she had to explain to her four children why their father, Macario Gonzalez-Perez, vanished on his birthday, May 20. It was also their ninth wedding anniversary. "My dad got kidnapped, and they go by ICE 'cause they aren't very nice," their 6-year-old daughter said. In 2009, Macario Gonzalez-Perez started a new life in the United States after leaving Guatemala. He opened Alteration World on East Main Street in Carnegie, fell in love with Brittany Gonzalez and had four children. "It's overwhelming the first four, five days after it happened. I was just quite, somber," Brittany Gonzalez said. Now, outside the shop in Carnegie, their 6-year-old daughter sells lemonade, with every cup poured in pursuit of his presence. At the same time, her mom works to keep the business Gonzalez-Perez built from scratch alive. "A lot of sleepless nights, staying up worrying about him, worrying about if I am going to be able to afford the rent for the store, the house, where the kids are going to be tomorrow," Brittany Gonzalez said. She said her husband is in ICE detention at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center in Clearfield County. He called during KDKA's interview with his wife on Thursday. He agreed to speak with KDKA. "How are you feeling?" KDKA's Mamie Bah asked. "I'm feeling little stressful," he said. Bah followed up, "Do you have residency, a visa? What is your immigration status?" "I'm in the process, that's what I told them," he said. "I'm in the process for a green card." Brittany Gonzalez said her husband is not a criminal, and he has an active visa. She said they began the immigration process in 2017. She doesn't understand why he was picked up. "What do you want to say to people who may say 'you shouldn't come here illegally?'" KDKA's Mami Bah asked Brittany Gonzalez. "That term, illegally and legally, isn't a term that we use within the immigrant culture. So, to say does he belong here, is he here, is he doing things the right way? Yes," she said.
