Covering Politics in NYC Never Gets Boring!
The Gotham Gazette’s Eye-Opener arrives by email every morning, and if ever the “Eye-Opener” moniker was fitting, today was it! A must-read story about the arrests of State Senator John Sampson and City Councilmember Dan Halloran. This week’s class can’t come soon enough!
Check out this quote from the legal complaint that is attributed to a wire tap of Councilman Halloran:
“That’s politics, that’s politics, it’s all about how much. Not about whether or will, it’s about how much, and that’s our politicians in New York, they’re all like that, all like that. And they get like that because of the drive that the money does for everything else. You can’t do anything without the fucking money.”
