Full Hour | In today’s second hour, Dom welcomes Joe Pettyjohn, School Board member for Bensalem Township, onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss a letter sent to Bucks County concerning the overreach of the government during the pandemic signed by all 13 of the county’s school districts. Joe explains why the elected school board officials have signed the letter, taking Dom and listeners back to edicts set forth during the height of the pandemic all the way to current day, laying out how he and the other school board members feel elected officials in the County have overstepped their power, usurping the power of school boards when setting forth Coronavirus guidelines. Pettyjohn explains that strict mandates were enforced with no input from any county health officials, and tells what he hopes changes moving forward in school district dealings with county officials.
Then, Dom welcomes John McNesby, President of FOP Lodge 5, Philadelphia’s Police Union, back onto the Dom Giordano Program. This week, news broke that the Philadelphia Police Department would be losing its accreditation from the statewide Pennsylvania Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission after the City of Philadelphia passed an ordinance titled the Equality in Driving Act, which largely tied the hands of Philadelphia Police officers from doing their jobs in ticketing and pulling over individuals. First, though, Giordano asks McNesby about reports he’s hearing that the drag racing and drifting crew that killed two in Wildwood will be coming to Philadelphia, which McNesby confirms, telling that the department is preparing for an upcoming event that will draw them to the City.
