New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is expected to announce Thursday that she will not use her executive powers to remove Mayor Eric Adams from office at least for now, two sources briefed on the decision told CNN.

In an interview with CBS News New York, Mayor Eric Adams spoke out about a judge's decision to let the criminal case against him continue, Gov. Kathy Hochul's decision to limit his powers, and more.

Appointed counsel will advise court about the Justice Department’s controversial request to drop charges against Adams.
