Brad Lander is at it again, pulling his usual liberal stunt. On Tuesday, the City Comptroller took it upon himself to stage a confrontation with ICE officials. His dramatic antics, designed to land him in cuffs, scream of a desperate attempt to grab some spotlight. Lander’s little escapade is nothing more than a pathetic cry for attention in his mayoral ambitions.
It’s pretty clear what’s going on here. Lander isn’t interested in actual policy or helping everyday Americans. No, his focus is completely elsewhere—on himself, and on how to boost his profile with the woke crowd. It’s grandstanding like this that reveals the hollowness at the heart of his political theater.
While he plays the part of a champion for some imagined cause, the reality is that he’s contributing to lawlessness and disorder. If Lander has his way, he’d rather have chaos reign than support the lawful actions of ICE, which works to keep our nation safe and secure. Restricting law enforcement in such a public manner isn’t bravery—it’s sheer ignorance.

This is all part of a larger trend we’re seeing from liberals who care more about photo ops than facts. Lander wants headlines, not hard work or accountability. How about he focuses on solving real issues for a change instead of chasing after empty publicity? The people deserve leaders who prioritize their safety and prosperity above fleeting celebrity.
In the end, what’s more telling about a political clown like Lander? The noisy screams or the lack of meaningful ideas? What does it say about a man who’d rather be famous than effective? Perhaps it’s time for voters to look beyond the shallow, self-serving drama and demand leaders who actually get the job done.
