Residents are mounting opposition to projects big and small in communities across Northeast Ohio, from a data center to a service garage. Will the developments happen anyway? An overtime surge in the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office led to a legal battle over control of the sheriff's budget. This week, it was ballooning overtime in the Cleveland Division of Police that prompted City Council scrutiny. Ohio Sen. John Husted testified for the defense in the corruption trial of two FirstEnergy executives, and the prosecution's final question to him incensed the defense, which accused prosecutors of misconduct. A former Cleveland City Council member who earlier served as an advocate for lead-safe homes is now the city's lead safety chief. And keep your eyes peeled for Bigfoot in Portage County. There have been a number of purported sightings this week.

On this Thursday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid speaks on Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosting an Iftar service at City Hall to break the fast for Ramadan, followed by a report on NYC Comptroller Mark Levine testifying at the first City Council budget hearing that the city lost 38,000 private-sector jobs and faces a projected $7.3 billion two-year budget gap; he opposes raising property taxes, supports changing the state local-aid formula, and is cautious about taxing millionaires and corporations, while City Hall says the budget director will testify later because he is fasting for Ramadan. Sid then criticizes CNN's framing and on-air wording about the ISIS-inspired terrorist attack outside Gracie Mansion last weekend, before he mocks the women of The View for claiming that the Iran war was launched by President Trump to distract from other stories such as “Savannah Guthrie” and the Epstein files. Andrew Giuliani, Arthur Aidala, Bill O'Reilly, Caroline Glick, Darrin Porcher & Joe Benigno join Sid on this Friday-eve installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode of The Finest Unfiltered, retired NYPD Lieutenants John Macari and Eric Dym sit down with former New York City Councilman Bob Holden to discuss the wave of legislation passed over the last several years that many believe has weakened the NYPD and undermined public safety in New York City. Holden, one of the few voices in the City Council who consistently pushed back against anti-police legislation, breaks down how laws like the How Many Stops Act, expanded oversight mandates, and other policing reforms have changed the way officers operate on the streets. The conversation dives into how political pressure, ideology, and City Hall decision-making have impacted police morale, officer recruitment, and the ability of the NYPD to proactively prevent crime and maintain order in America's largest city. John, Eric, and Bob discuss: • The specific NYC laws that critics say “handcuffed” police officers • How City Council politics shaped NYPD policy • The impact these laws have had on officer morale and retention • Whether New York City can restore proactive policing • What reforms are needed to rebuild public safety This is a candid conversation about policing, politics, and the future of public safety in New York City.

Attorney Jim Walden calls in to discuss representing NYC Councilmember Vicki Paladino over disciplinary action tied to her tweets, arguing the City Council and Speaker Julie Menin are hypocritically targeting a Republican while ignoring Democrats' inflammatory social media statements. Walden says the Council has no power to police internet speech, that Paladino cannot be expelled under Supreme Court precedent, and that the worst penalty would be censure, noting she has already lost five committee assignments. He outlines a strategy to fight in court with the next date on April 7 and, if needed, build a coalition to block action by securing 18 votes. Walden rejects any plea bargain and says the issue is free speech and speaking about terrorism and extremist threats. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On Thursday, March 5, after years of community organizing, the City of Troy opted into the state's Good Cause Eviction Law. The law however is expected to be vetoed by Mayor Carmella Mantello, with the Council then needing to override it. The law offers important protections for tenants in some rental housing. Landlords cannot evict tenants or refuse to renew their leases without a valid reason. The law also lmits the size of annual rent increases to 5% plus inflation, or 10%, whichever is less. However, the law only applies if your landlord owns 11 or more housing units. We hear from several tenants and landlords at the council meeting, followed by Mayor Mantello, and council members Noreen McKee and Greg Campbell-Cohen. By Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.

Sid Rosenberg delivered another high-energy morning packed with politics, national security, and New York sports on Sid and Friends in the Morning. Former NYC Council Minority Leader Joe Borelli joined Sid to discuss the controversy surrounding Councilmember Vicky Palladino, arguing that efforts by the City Council to punish her over social media posts could set a troubling precedent for policing political speech and may even strengthen her standing with voters. Media heavyweight Bill O'Reilly weighed in on global tensions, breaking down the geopolitical logic behind U.S. actions involving Iran and stressing that military strength, disciplined strategy, and high-level negotiations—not media narratives—ultimately determine outcomes on the world stage. From Capitol Hill, U.S. Senator Rick Scott honored fallen service members and defended President Donald Trump's military actions as necessary preemptive steps to protect American lives, while criticizing partisan battles over war powers. Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis also joined the program to celebrate a Supreme Court decision preserving New York's 11th Congressional District map, calling it a major victory for voters in Staten Island and Brooklyn and a stand against partisan gerrymandering. And in the sports world, WFAN legend Joe Beningo brought his trademark passion to the studio, ripping the New York Mets bullpen, debating the playoff ceiling of the New York Knicks, and sounding off on the latest quarterback drama surrounding the New York Jets. From City Hall battles to global strategy and die-hard New York sports talk, Sid kept the conversation lively, opinionated, and unmistakably New York. Learn more about your ad choices.
