Full Hour | In today’s third hour, Dom continues the Dom Giordano Program by welcoming in Don Kohler, candidate for Judge of the Chester County Court of Common Pleas, who has some concerning news about the upcoming election in Chester County. First, Kohler tells of the importance of the upcoming election in the Court of Common Pleas, telling that there are currently 5 seats up for grabs, telling of the influential nature of the position, revealing that there are 5 Democrats and 5 Republicans running for seats. Kohler explains that whoever is elected in this election will sit for 10 years on the Court, and have the potential to hold their seats for 20 years, so electing a Republican judge will have far reaching implications for years to come. If Democrats win out, it could significantly change the county makeup, with Kohler further telling that most citizens first have contact with elected judicial officials before having any contact with other elected officials. Kohler warns that at least one Democrat sees the position as a law-making position, which Kohler condemns, explaining the dangers of allowing judges to make law rather than enforce it.

Then, Dom spends a good chunk of the remainder of the hour discussing a development in a case we discussed long ago involving the removal of two black men from a Starbucks café in Philadelphia. The moment went viral, causing Starbucks to create a show in response after being labeled a racist organization for not allowing people to just hang out at their City locations. Today, it was announced that a Starbucks manager, who was allegedly fired during this show by the company to prove their not racist, will receive a payout from the company of over $25 million.
