The Dom Giordano Program

1 - Pennsylvania State senator Frank Farry joins us today. He starts by speaking eloquently on the behavior we’ve seen before and after Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the vigil held in Bucks County that grew in incredible numbers. What drove the giant turnout, and why honor the woman killed in Charlotte as well? What can be done about rhetoric, both on the internet and in real life? What is the giant hold-up with passing a state budget?

120 - What aspects has Charlie Kirk’s death immediately impacted?

135 - PA GOP Chairman Greg Rothman joins us today. What big event is the GOP hosting soon? Did Greg know Charlie Kirk? What were his takeaways from his death, both good and bad? Why is Josh Shapiro casting erroneous blame for who attacked his house? Who does Greg think the GOP will be endorsing for state governor?

150 - Seminar after seminar…

12 - Dom is back from Charleston! What was his excursion down south like?

1205 - Dom missed a lot of time, so he has to talk about what has transpired with the Charlie Kirk assassination among other things.

1215 - Side - all-time lines

1220 - Former Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department, Jody Weis, joins us today. Should the National guard be called into Chicago like it has been in DC? What the heck is Jody doing in private security, get him in Washington?!? How big of a safety beacon is the clearing out of homeless and drug users from its train stations? Dom makes a deal with Jody.

1250 - Robert Redford has passed at 89 years old. That was a man you didn’t want your picture with. Your calls to wrap the hour.

1 - Former U.S. Attorney for the EDPA, Bill McSwain, joins the program today. How’s his best friend, Larry Krasner? Bill takes us through one of his old cases where a store owner was shot outside his establishment while cleaning it, in which Larry Krasner fought for a lenient sentence, and Bill fought back by bringing federal charges. How does one bring a federal charge like this forward? Why is Larry Krasner not concerned with locking up real criminals and why is that notion misguided? How shocking is it that Charlie Kirk was assassinated from long range? Was this a skilled shooter?

110 - Why are the people cheering on Charlie Kirk’s death have a weird, empirical view on politics?

120 - We play more audio from Dom’s 9/11 broadcast. Your calls.

135 - JT Marshburn, National Chairman of the College Republican National Committee, joins the program in wake of the loss of Charlie Kirk.

Are we or will we see colleges welcome conservative speakers to campus? What did JT tell his chapter members after yesterday’s ordeal? Are conservatives more welcomed on SEC campuses compared to a school up north? What are JT’s future plans?

Ryan Boyer, Business Manager for the Philadelphia Building and Construction Trades Council, joins us today. Are there any building hurdles for celebrating the country’s 250th birthday? How does budgeting play a factor? Who are the three players at the table deciding budgeting and school choice and why is Josh Shapiro not the major one? Why not support Stacy Garrity for governor for school choice? Why not push the governor’s office publicly? What does the governor’s office stand on as far as opposing school choice? Why is this such a great time for Philadelphia?

12 - Uh oh! The National Guard leaked memos on the soldiers’ frustration on their public optics as they occupy Washington D.C. to curb crime. How did this happen?

110 - Should we be talking about UAPs?

130 - To react to the murder that took place on Chestnut Street the other day, we have Candidate for Philadelphia District Attorney, Judge Patrick Dugan. Why would a crime like this have been prosecuted differently under Dugan compared to Krasner? Why does this affect more than just the residents of the city? Why does a crime like this set another bad precedent in this city? When will we get another debate between Larry and Pat?

150 - We play an old clip of Scott Jennings reprimanding Randi Weingarten. Why is this message still applicable?

2 - Corey DeAngelis, School Choice Evangelist, joins us today. What is Corey’s take on why Josh Shapiro sided with the unions in the 11th hour as far as budgeting negotiations go?
