Los Angeles is not where it should be, but a new LA is possible. That was the message that Mayor Karen Bass delivered during her first State of the City address. 

A day later, Bass announced her $13 billion city budget, which includes a push to hire more LA Police Department officers. She described it as an investment.

“Inside the Issues: The Podcast” hosts Alex Cohen and Sara Sadhwani break down Bass’ announcements.

Then, they discuss how the city, LAPD and police union are spinning the “undercover cop” scandal, which began when the LAPD released police officer information to a journalist and it was published. 

And the latest on the political musical chairs.
