Andrew Gounardes Takes Photos – Instead of Taking Action for Immigrants

The photo above was taken on June 17, 2025. Earlier that day, Brad Lander created a video with an immigrant named Edgardo, who was at the Immigration Court at 26 Federal Plaza in Manhattan. Edgardo was being detained by ICE. Brad Lander tried to hold onto Edgardo and he was taken into custody by ICE as well because he intervened. No politician or reporter asked what happened to Edgardo after Brad Lander made the video.
Today, it’s almost a month later and Andrew Gounardes took his podium outside of MDC jail in Brooklyn to take a photo. Gounardes claims that about 100 people are being detained by ICE at the jail for no reason.

A speech behind a podium outside the jail is not helping any immigrant in ICE’s custody.
Gounardes and these other politicians can assign attorneys to the jail to help the people being detained or they can go to court and get the court to give them permission.
