Next year's Pennsylvania gubernatorial race is already on the political horizon. So far, the Republican field is shaping up with three prominent figures expressing interest. EMTs could soon be authorized to give caregivers medication that would reverse opioid overdoses, as a bill is quickly moving through the state Capitol. Pennsylvania could receive as much as 200 million dollars as part of a massive settlement with drug maker Purdue Pharma. That's according to PA Attorney General Dave Sunday. The payout is part of a $7.4 billion deal, stemming from the opioid crisis, in which prosecutors and addiction experts say Purdue and its owners the Sackler family played a major role. A portion of land in Somerset County is now protected through a recent acquisition by The Nature Conservancy. The land is part of a critical ecosystem, and it's being added to State Game Lands 82. Police say an 18-year old stabbed his father to death with a machete-style knife during an early-morning argument Tuesday in their West York home. Raw milk sold in Lancaster County and throughout Central Pennsylvania is contaminated and should be thrown out, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. The milk is contaminated with an infectious intestinal disease. The affected milk is Meadow View Jerseys brand raw milk purchased since April 1 with sell-by dates between April 15 and July 8. A Pennsylvania college is addressing its growing financial issues by auctioning its art collection. Albright College, located in Reading, Berks County - according to a report by our partners at Spotlight PA - is preparing to auction more than 2,000 pieces of art. Gov. Josh Shapiro was joined by Philadelphia Eagles Hall of Famer LeSean McCoy, at the official ribbon-cutting for a new 41-unit housing complex in Harrisburg, to benefit low and moderate income home buyers.

People around the world got a first look at pictures and videos from the new Rubin Observatory in Chile on Monday.

UPMC is among the hospital systems in Pennsylvania no longer providing certain gender-affirming care for transgender patients next month. Providers are urging UPMC to reverse its decision. Suicide is the leading cause of gun-related deaths in Pennsylvania. The state is offering one million dollars in grants to help communities prevent these deaths. An intense and nearly historic weather pattern is cooking much of the U.S. under a dangerous heat dome this week with triple-digit temperatures in places that haven't been so hot in more than a decade. That includes the entire 19-county WITF listening area, which remains under an extreme heat advisory through 8 pm Wednesday. A Lancaster County police chief is fired, in the wake of a video of an off-duty traffic stop he conducted - in which he drew a gun and grappled with a motorcyclist.

Comments on autism by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are drawing fire from Pennsylvania representatives -- including two who are autistic themselves. A state lawmaker who has built a bipartisan coalition around food health and nutrition. Rep. Natalie Mihalek wants Pennsylvania to take on highly-processed foods and other health concerns. She's assembled a package of seven bills she’s calling Healthy PA. Presidents at several central Pennsylvania colleges and universities are among the 300 nationwide who have signed a statement condemning what they say are the Trump administration's unprecedented government overreach and political interference endangering American education and public research funding. By the end of June, creditors of a former Lancaster County-based drug and alcohol rehab center should be paid and its remaining Ephrata property should be sold. That’s what court-appointed receivers for Retreat Behavioral Health told a Lancaster County judge on Wednesday. Retreat closed abruptly last June following the suicides of its founder and chief administrative officers. The company was in debt for at least $30 million. The company that owned the railcar that caused the devastating East Palestine, Ohio train derailment in 2023 will NOT have to help pay for the $600 million dollar settlement Norfolk Southern agreed to with residents. An Ohio jury decided Wednesday that GATX isn't liable for the settlement, even though the failure of a bearing on its railcar carrying plastic pellets caused the pileup on Feb. 3, 2023.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:00pm- On Monday, chip maker Nvidia announced that it is investing $500 billion in American-made supercomputers used in artificial intelligence. The domestic manufacturing is expected to create over 100,000 jobs. 6:10pm- According to reports, China has suspended exportation of rare earth minerals and rare earth magnets—two components critical to modern technology. The move comes in response to the Trump Administration placing a 145% tariff on Chinese imports. On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivered a message from President Donald Trump which stated: “the ball is in China's court. China needs to make a deal with us—we don't have to make a deal with them.” 6:15pm- While speaking with the press from the Oval Office alongside President Donald Trump, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele revealed that he has no plans to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia who was deported to El Salvador after the Trump Administration determined he was in the U.S. illegally and a member of the gang MS-13. In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court determined that Abrego Garcia's deportation was, in part, the result of an “administrative error” and that he should “facilitate” his return to the United States—though, after the error is corrected, he would ultimately be eligible for deportation anyway. While speaking with the press, Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller denied an administrative error ever occurred. The Trump Administration also noted that because Abrego Garcia is a citizen of El Salvador, they have no recourse if Bukele denies their request for release. 6:40pm- U.S. companies “need to start thinking like the Amish.” A business in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania has tariff-proofed the manufacturing process of its stainless-steel stoves. Weekday afternoons on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, Rich Zeoli gives the expert analysis and humorous take that we need in this crazy political climate. Along with Executive Producer Matt DeSantis and Justin Otero, the Zeoli show is the next generation of talk radio and you can be a part of it weekday afternoons 3-7pm.

Send us a textChad Burpee is a proud father, brother, and a son. Though he grew up in Maine, life's journey eventually led him to Texas. With a deep sense of duty and service, he dedicated 20 years of his life to law enforcement, serving in Lancaster County, Nebraska, and later in Dallas, Texas. Before that, he honorably served his country as a United States Air Force veteran from 1995 to 1999 with the 314th Security Forces Squadron. His service took him on two tours in the Middle East, and he had the distinct privilege of working with the Presidential Detail for President William Clinton and Air Force One.  On July 7, 2016, Chad's life was forever changed. That night, in the heart of Dallas, he found himself in the midst of one of the deadliest attacks on law enforcement in U.S. history—the Dallas 5 ambush. As chaos unfolded, 11 officers were shot, and tragically, 5 of his brothers in blue lost their lives. The weight of that night and the years of service before it left lasting scars, both seen and unseen.  Now medically retired, Chad has turned his pain into purpose. He openly shares his journey of battling anxiety, depression, and PTSD, hoping to be a light for others who are struggling. Through his words and experiences, he reminds others that even in the darkest moments, there is hope, there is healing, and there is peace to be found again.LinksIG - https://www.instagram.com/chad_b514/ FB - https://www.facebook.com/chadt.o.burpeeFind The Suffering PodcastThe Suffering Podcast InstagramKevin Donaldson InstagramTom Flynn InstagramApple PodcastSpotifyYouTubeThe Suffering Podcast FamilySherri AllsupKetaReviveToyota of HackensackSupport the showThe Suffering Podcast Instagram Kevin Donaldson Instagram TikTok YouTube
