New York City’s new Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani quietly revoked Executive Order 50 on his very first day in office.
- The order, issued by predecessor Eric Adams, allowed federal agencies like DHS to monitor gang activities inside Rikers Island prison.
- This change specifically hinders federal oversight of violent groups like the notorious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, which operates behind bars.
- Mamdani’s move was part of a broader sweep repealing all late-term executive orders from Adams (September 26 to December 31).
- Federal sources express serious concern that Tren de Aragua could now strengthen its operations, using corrupt guards, visitors, and released inmates to communicate externally.
- Critics question the timing, asking if Mamdani is intentionally removing “one less pair of eyes” on the dangerous gang amid rising threats.
- The decision fits Mamdani’s pattern of policies seen as soft on crime, including support for ending solitary confinement and limiting gang databases.
- Federal officials fear this empowers criminal networks in NYC jails at a time when public safety demands more scrutiny.
