Full Hour | To lead off today’s final hour, Katie Tubb, senior policy analyst for energy and environmental issues at the Heritage Foundation, joins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss the Biden administration’s economic response to Russia’s invasion into Ukraine. Today in a press conference, Biden announced further sanctions on Russia’s export of oil, noting the damage that this will have on Americans. Giordano and Tubb discuss the reality that the administration continues to ignore, being the ability to ramp up domestic production of oil. In addition, Tubb tells us how ramping up production would affect gas prices, and stresses the importance of energy independence in dealing with foreign affairs moving forward.
Then, Fox29 ace reporter Steve Keeley checks back into the Dom Giordano Program, this time to discuss a news conference held this afternoon by Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw announcing the partial results of an internal investigation into the police-involved shooting of 12-year-old Thomas Siderio. First, Keeley reveals intricate details of the situation, telling that the Commissioner revealed that police officers did indeed identify themselves, flipping on their lights, and prior to shots being fired. Also, Keeley tells about the evidence presented by the commissioner regarding gun powder residue, and reveals that the department has determined that Siderio did indeed fire the initial shot.
