On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with New York City Councilwoman Inna Vernikov to discuss her journey from Soviet immigrant to attorney to elected official—and why she felt compelled to enter politics during a time of rising anti-Semitism and public safety concerns.

Vernikov shares how her background shaped her views on justice, policing, and government, and offers a candid look at the political divide within New York City—including tensions between moderates and the far-left. She also breaks down the realities of running for office, the personal sacrifices of public service, and the challenges facing NYC today—from affordability to crime.

Plus, Vernikov gives her five-year outlook on New York’s political future, explains why she believes the current leadership may “implode,” and offers a hopeful vision for a return to common-sense governance.
