In this episode, hosts Janae Pierre and Brian Lehrer discuss the top stories from his show and the WNYC newsroom. It's a segment we're calling "Five Things." This week, we examine former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's political prospects amid a reported federal investigation into nursing home deaths during COVID. Mayor Eric Adams' reelection strategy also comes into focus following the dismissal of federal charges. The roundup continues with the ICE detention of Dylan, a 20-year-old Venezuelan high school student arrested at a Manhattan immigration court just after his deportation case was dismissed. Plus, a judge's ruling protects the MTA's congestion pricing program from federal retaliation. And finally, we check in on New York's sports teams.
