New York governor debate between Blakeman and Hochul
Blakeman said Donald Trump is his friend and has endorsed him.
Hochul accused Blakeman of being a supporter of Donald Trump.
ICE shot a 28-year-old Dominican national during a targeted operation in the Bronx.
“I have a cooperative agreement with ICE until Kathy Hochul said we could no longer cooperate with ICE. We got over 2,000 illegal migrants out of my county with criminal records ranging from rape, attempted murder, robbery, burglary, drug dealing, carjacking, gang activity. And that's because we cooperated with ICE, and we didn't raid one school, one hospital, one daycare center or one church. If you cooperate with federal law enforcement, it makes for a safer community. That's what I did. Kathy Hochul is taking that ability away from us. That's why things like this happen.”
BRUCE BLAKEMAN
