Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani condemned a flier circulated by a super PAC supporting Andrew Cuomo during Thursday’s mayoral debate. The flier criticizes Mamdani’s record on Israel. Meanwhile, a new report from the Coalition for the Homeless finds nearly 73,000 non-asylum-seeking New Yorkers slept in shelters last year — a 12 percent increase from the year before. Also, the father of a missing Bronx toddler is pleading not guilty to murder, manslaughter, and menacing charges. Finally, in this week’s transit segment: Mamdani calls for free city buses, Cuomo weighs in on MTA funding, and we explore why the A train serves three parts of Queens.
