Today's Big Stories

1. Three more prosecutors resign in aftermath of dismissal of case against mayor

Three more federal prosecutors who had been involved in the now-dismissed corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams resigned today, saying they felt pressured into admitting wrongdoing or regret as a condition for being reinstated to their jobs.

The three assistant U.S. attorneys had been placed on leave after a number of prosecutors in New York and Washington refused to follow orders to end the case against Adams.

2. Hochul's job approval, favorability improve as voters support her top-line policy items in state budget, Siena College poll says

Gov. Kathy Hochul saw an improvement in her favorability and job approval last month and strong support for her top-line policy items in the still unfinished state budget, according to a Siena College poll of registered New York voters released today.

The governor has a favorability rating of 44-43%, up from 40-50% in March, and voters approve of the job Hochul is doing 48%-45%, according to the poll.

3. Wife of detained Columbia activist says her husband was denied release for his son's birth

The wife of detained Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil accused federal immigration officials of purposely denying a request for her husband to attend the birth of their first child in order to make the family suffer.

Noor Abdalla said in a statement that she had to give birth to a baby boy on Monday without her husband by her side. She said ICE had declined a request to grant Khalil temporary release from a detention center in Louisiana so he could travel to New York for the birth of the baby.

4. Williams touts record as he seeks reelection as public advocate

With weeks to go before early voting begins in the New York City primary, NY1 is sitting down with candidates running in the Democratic primary for public advocate—the citywide position next in line to the mayor if the current officeholder cannot serve out their term.

Today, current Public Advocate Jumaane made his case for reelection on “Mornings On 1.” He is facing a challenge from Queens Assemblywoman Jenifer Rajkumar.

“I’m proud of the work that we’ve been doing,” he said, noting that he has advocated for other cities to create the office.

5. What voters should know about the mayor’s dependence on Albany

Between now and the start of primary voting in June, NY1 will take a closer look at the key issues in the race for mayor. 

This week’s topic is the mayor’s relationship with Albany — because while the mayor may be the face of New York City, the real power to enact major change often sits 100 miles north in the state capital. 

The reality is, whoever becomes mayor will need to spend as much time thinking about the state legislature and the governor’s office as they do City Hall. 

6. Anti-Defamation League says anger at Israel is now the driving force behind antisemitism in the U.S.

The Anti-Defamation League says the number of antisemitic incidents in the United States reached a record high last year and notes that 58% of the 9,354 incidents related to Israel, notably chants, speeches and signs at rallies protesting Israeli policies.

In a report released today, the ADL, which has produced annual tallies for 46 years, said it's the first time Israel-related incidents — 5,422 of them in 2024 — comprised more than half the total. A key reason is the widespread opposition to Israel’s military response in Gaza after the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
