Full Hour | In today’s third hour, Dom spends some time talking local stories, first telling of an article posted by the Philadelphia Inquirer that analyzes the effectiveness of the plastic bag ban. Dom tells of the results, but takes issue with both this report and an associated bike organization, explaining the lack of good prioritization as crime continues to explode throughout the City. This leads Dom to reveal a shocking local story, playing back an NBC10 clip of an incident that involved a stolen vehicle crashing into a SEPTA bus, which caused a van to also pile up onto the bus. While the driver of the ban was stuck in his van, crime cameras show another individual entering into the damaged vehicle and walking away with what’s assumed to be cash from the van.
Then, Dom welcomes House Freedom Caucus leader, Representative Scott Perry, back onto the Dom Giordano Program to hear his thoughts on a couple issues playing out on Capitol Hill. First, Dom asks Perry about McCarthy’s bill on the debt ceiling, explaining why he’s not happy with it, but explains why it’s necessary, reminding listeners of the enormous Omnibus bill that required this, as they’re not able to fix the sins of the past. Perry takes us inside the negotiations, telling what it’s been like pushing up against Biden’s ‘I will not negotiate’ stance, explaining why he believes this is the best agreement they can get.
