Kathy Hochul knows her political fate

I believe she is waiting on this outcome:

In a five-page order issued Friday, Judge Dale Ho in Manhattan said
because the DOJ and Adams' legal team are in agreement on a deal that
would suspend the charges, the court hasn't yet heard "adversarial"
arguments questioning the arrangement.

Ho then appointed a conservative attorney, Paul Clement, to develop
counter-arguments to DOJ's decision. "[C]ourts are aided in their
decision-making through our system of adversarial testing, which can
be particularly helpful in cases presenting unusual fact patterns or
in cases of great public importance," he wrote
