After that, New Yorkers are already starting to feel the effects of the new administration in Washington. This week, the new secretary for homeland security, Kristi Noem, was in the Bronx, watching as federal agents arrested who they said was the leader of a vicious Venezuelan gang. Meanwhile, there may be other Trump effects — like potentially withdrawing federal approval of congestion pricing. The ‘Off Topic’ team looks at the immediate impact of Trump’s second term on New York.

The bloated battle for New York's political future 34:52

for 5 dager siden34:52

34:52

While Mayor Adams says he’s running for reelection, his already-crowded field of rivals may be getting bigger — with both former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and political director Bob Hardt weigh in on the mayor’s reelection chances, while also discussing the political strengths and weaknesses of the two new quasi-candidates. After that, for the first time in decades, state correction officers have walked off the job. At at least 38 of the state’s 42 prisons, correction officers are on a wildcat strike — a walkout not sanctioned by their union. The strike could have significant implications for the future of state prisons and Gov. Kathy Hochul's administration. The “Off Topic” team discusses how these events might shape New York's political landscape. Leave a message: 212-379-3440 Email: yourstoryny1@charter.com…

Kathy Hochul unveiled a plan to set up new restrictions on Adams but emphasized that it was “not a power grab.” NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan and political reporter Dan Rivoli break down Hochul’s proposals, which include giving City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams, City Comptroller Brad Lander and Public Advocate Jumaane Williams more power.

Adams off the hook, but at what cost? 33:31

for 19 dager siden33:31

33:31

This week, Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove directed the acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York to drop the corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams . But she refused and stepped down. Elected leaders across New York have cast doubt on whether Adams can govern impartially now, saying the charges could resurface at any point, which could compel him to cooperate with Trump’s policies on immigration and other issues. Also this week, the U.S. attorney general called a press conference to blast the state of New York and announce the federal government is suing the governor and the state. Additionally, FEMA has rescinded more than $80 million in funding to New York City, money meant to cover hotels for migrants. NY1 political reporters Bobby Cuza and Kelly Mena and political director Bob Hardt weigh in on an unbelievably busy week in New York City politics. After that, with the corruption scandal temporarily behind him, the mayor seems to be focusing on his reelection campaign. Support among Democrats is wearing thin. Will Adams switch parties and run as a Republican? The ‘Off Topic’ team looks at the mayor's complicated path to reelection. Leave a message: 212-379-3440 Email: yourstoryny1@charter.com…

After that, the Trump administration’s policies are spilling over into New York politics. The mayor is set to testify next month in Washington D.C. about the city’s sanctuary city policy.

34:10

Mayor Eric Adams called out sick this week — spending much of his time holed up in Gracie Mansion. Aides said he was undergoing routine medical tests but details on his condition have been sparse. His absence sparked rumors of a possible resignation, which he vehemently denied when he emerged on Thursday for an event with the NYPD. The mayor's dramatic week comes as senior Justice Department officials have been discussing with federal prosecutors the possibility of dropping the corruption case against Adams. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, and political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan discuss this unusual week for the mayor. After that, New Yorkers are already starting to feel the effects of the new administration in Washington. This week, the new secretary for homeland security, Kristi Noem, was in the Bronx, watching as federal agents arrested who they said was the leader of a vicious Venezuelan gang.

Is Mayor Adams rolling out the welcome wagon for President Trump? 34:34

for 6 weeks siden34:34

34:34

Mayor Eric Adams raised plenty of eyebrows this week when he decided to skip Martin Luther King Jr. events in New York City so he could attend the inauguration of President Trump. Adams had nothing to say to reporters on the following day after the president pardoned more than 1,500 Jan. 6 insurrectioners and tried to end birthright citizenship. That night, conservative media pundit Tucker Carlson released an interview he taped with the mayor in which Adams said the Democratic party has abandoned him. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan discuss the firestorm of criticism Adams has received from New York Democrats and then examined what the mayor’s already-bleak political future might entail. After that, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul released her $252 billion budget this week, which included tax breaks for middle-class families, inflation rebate checks, and a new mandate for millions of school kids — no phones in the classroom. The "Off Topic" team breaks down the hefty new budget. Leave a message: 212-379-3440 Email: yourstoryny1@charter.com…

Congestion pricing is finally here. As of Sunday, New Yorkers are being charged $9 during peak hours to enter the Central Business District in Manhattan below 60th Street.

35:41

It’s a new year, but the same old problems are facing Mayor Adams.

On Thursday, federal agents raided Maddrey’s home for undisclosed reasons. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan discuss the latest scandal in Adams’ mayoralty.

This week, Ingrid Lewis-Martin, Mayor Eric Adams' former chief adviser, along with her son and two real estate investors, were charged in an alleged bribery conspiracy.

Lewis-Martin, who resigned Sunday from her role as one of the most powerful officials in City Hall, has said she's being "falsely accused."
