It's the Brian Laris show on WNYC. Good morning, everyone. It's day seven of the Mayor

Mamdani era, right? We've been discussing his early moves daily on the show so far. We'll do that again today

acting in bad faith against workers and consumers. He affirmed that he is still for mayoral

control of the public school, something he had opposed during the campaign, but he will have his

own approach to more community input.

And what happens locally after the mayor called President Trump to object to the military

action in Venezuela and after the acting city health commissioner yesterday rejected Trump's

reduced childhood vaccine recommendations, we'll get to as much of that as we can now with WNYC

and Gothamist political reporters Bridget Bergen and Elizabeth Kim. Hi, Bridget, hi Liz. This is January 7th,
