About this episode

Bridget Anne Kelly, a former aide to ex-New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, is opposing Randy Mastro’s nomination as New York City’s top attorney. Mastro previously issued a controversial report that exonerated Christie during the Bridgegate scandal while blaming Kelly. Meanwhile, immigration experts warn that the mass deportation plan proposed by former President Trump, if reelected, could have severe consequences for New York and the nation. Finally, New York City health care workers who were on the front lines during the early COVID-19 pandemic have published a 400-page textbook titled “The COVID Response in New York City: Crisis Management in the Epicenter of the Epicenter.” WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with two of its authors, Dr. Eric Wei and Dr. Laura Iavicoli, to learn more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
