Full Hour | In today’s second hour, Dom continues the Dom Giordano Program by leading off discussing Presidential politics, offering new updates on the multiple trials of Donald Trump, playing back some audio into the hearing regarding Fani Willis’ relationship with the DA who filed charges against Trump. Then, Dom plays back a clip from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who argued that people are better off now than they were pre-Pandemic.
Then, Dom welcomes in Pennsylvania Senate President Pro Tempore Kim Ward back onto the Dom Giordano Program to hear her reaction to last week’s budget announced by Governor Josh Shapiro in a lengthy speech that may suggest a run nationally. First, Dom asks for Ward’s overall thoughts on the budget, with Ward warning of the heightened executive power that comes with the budget, breaking down how this puts more power into the hands of the Governor’s Office. Then, Dom delve into the issues within the budget, explaining the Republican stance on marijuana with the Governor making legalization a large aspect of his address. Also, Senator Ward discusses a proposed hike in the minimum wage and Shapiro’s waffling on school choice. (Photo by Alyssa Pointer-Pool/Getty Images)
