The Karol Markowicz Show: Vickie Paladino on Fighting for NYC, Challenging Mamdani & Bringing Back Common Sense

New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino joins The Karol Markowicz Show for a candid conversation about standing as one of the city’s most prominent Republican voices, winning over voters in a heavily Democratic district, and why she believes New York City is at a critical turning point. Paladino discusses her opposition to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s agenda, her concerns over the direction of the Democratic Party, the future of New York politics, sanctuary city policies, and her fight to protect free speech amid a legal battle with the City Council. She also shares how her background as a small business owner, PTA parent, and community activist shaped her approach to public service. Karol and Vickie also reflect on why so many families have left New York, whether the city can return to what it once was, and the importance of staying optimistic, building trust, and taking on challenges one step at a time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
