‘ICE is a Terrorist Agency’ - Cynthia Nixon on Deportation Raids & Trump’s War on Higher Education

On this week’s ‘We’re Not Kidding’, Mehdi is joined by award-winning actor, activist, and Zeteo contributor Cynthia Nixon for an impassioned conversation about rising fascism under Donald Trump and the lawlessness of ICE, which Cynthia calls a “terrorist agency.” Mehdi and Cynthia unpack Trump’s assault on US higher education, the ‘disappearings’ of international student activists, and the lack of opposition from the Democratic Party. They also discuss Israel’s renewed assault on Gaza and the lack of public outrage, particularly from liberals in the entertainment industry, as well as the whole Rachel Zegler/‘Snow White’ controversy. Finally, Mehdi and Cynthia discuss the Democratic primary for New York City Mayor and the showdown between disgraced former governor Andrew Cuomo and State Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani. 00:00 - Opening montage 00:58 - Intro 4:02 - Columbia University rolls over for Trump 8:12 - Trump’s war on higher education 9:11 - ICE is disappearing people 15:04 - Democrats’ lack of opposition 20:58 - Trump lets Israel resume war in Gaza 23:40 - Cynthia called for a ceasefire when Hollywood was silent 29:44 - Rachel Zegler, ‘Snow White’, and Disney 30:19 - Why Andrew Cuomo resigned 37:07 - Why Cynthia supports Zohran Mamdani 39:40 - Cynthia’s advice for how to oppose Trump This interview was published 10 days earlier on Zeteo.com.
