Listen "Episode 376: How A Wild New Supreme Court Decision About a Small Time Mayor’s $13,000 Tip Could Bail Out Eric Adams"

Episode Synopsis

Co-hosts Christina Greer, Katie Honan and Harry Siegel discuss the high court’s ruling in June that public servants are free to accept gratuities in exchange for their public actions, which the mayor’s attorneys brought up Monday in a motion to dismiss the charges against him.
Plus, the pod digs into a new poll conducted just before the mayor was charged that shows New Yorkers overwhelmingly disapprove of his job performance, whether the city can still function while Mayor Adams fights the charges against him, and how his case and the city’s future could both be determined by what happens in the presidential election this November.
