New York State Attorney General Letitia James broke her silence this week amid increasing pressure to respond to the allegations of sexual harassment against her Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Khan. James has been accused of suppressing information until she was re-elected this past November. NY1’s Zack Fink, Courtney Gross and Juan Manuel Benítez weigh in on this highly complicated issue and take a close look at the attorney general’s recent interview on “Inside City Hall.”
Additionally, rats are in the news. New York City’s longstanding war with rats is no secret, but pressure is mounting about how to fight the rodents. Does the city hire a rat czar? Is Mayor Eric Adams taking his own personal views on this issue too far? Will changing the city’s rules around household trash do the trick? The team digs in and sees what they can uncover.
We want to hear from you, especially what you think of James’ response.
