The five months since Mayor Eric Adams was indicted have consisted of an extraordinary sequence of events that has found the mayor bruised but emboldened, still firmly in office, and about to launch a campaign for re-election. Katie Honan, a reporter for The CITY and co-host of the FAQ NYC podcast, has been closely following the mayor through these many twists and turns.

Honan joined NY1’s Errol Louis to discuss several issues surrounding Adams, including his legal troubles, loss of security clearance, and the recent resignations of four deputy mayors on the same day. They also touched on the strategies of other mayoral candidates as they prepare for the June primary, including the “will he or won’t he” role of Andrew Cuomo in the race.

***Spectrum News NY1 and Roosevelt House will be co-hosting a special panel discussion on the political career and legacy of New York City Mayor John Lindsay.

Inspired by the NY1 three-part limited audio series covering Lindsay’s political career, the conversation will be held at Roosevelt House on March 13 at 6 p.m. It will be moderated Errol Louis and feature a panel of Lindsay administration alumni and journalists who will discuss Lindsay’s eight years in office from 1966 to 1973 — one of the most chaotic and transformative times in New York’s recent history. It will explore his accomplishments as mayor, as well as the staggering number of challenges he faced during his two terms.

Attendees will need to RSVP to the event, which is free, through Roosevelt House, here: https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/you-decide-with-errol-louis/2025/02/06/john-lindsay-new-york-city-mayor-panel-you-decide-crisis-and-accomplishment
