This week, former New York City Buildings Commissioner and ex-City Councilman Eric Ulrich surrendered to authorities in Manhattan. District Attorney Alvin Bragg says Ulrich took over $150,000 in bribes in a multi-year scheme, providing access and official favors in exchange for cash. A former advisor to Mayor Eric Adams, Ulrich pleaded not guilty to the 16 felony counts against him. NY1 political reporters Bobby Cuza, Kelly Mena and NY1 political director Bob Hardt weighed in on the inspector’s alleged crimes as well as his — and his co-conspirators’ — relationship to the mayor.

After that, in an attempt to help pay for the ever-growing costs of the migrant crisis, Adams has directed all city agencies to make immediate budget cuts of 5%. The “Off Topic/On Politics” team discusses the mayor’s directive, including exactly how it will work within the agencies which already have tight budgets. They also look at the awkward rollout of this information from City Hall.
