A Pennsylvania House bill would partially ban the use of artificial intelligence in political campaign ads. Supporters hope it boosts election integrity. The federal budget bill that passed the U-S House last month would have overhauled aid for college students. Education affordability advocates say the Senate’s version is an improvement, but they’re still worried. Penn State’s Board of Trustees has voted to remove one of its most outspoken members. The 30-4 vote is the latest chapter in an ongoing battle between the board and member Barry Fenchak. A central Pennsylvania sheriff is under fire for a controversial social media post. In York County, officials are approving a plan for a waste transfer station. A landfill, used since the 1970s, is nearing capacity. And the state is changing the ways doe tags are distributed to hunters. Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A committee in the Pennsylvania House is advancing two elections bills. Voter ID and a suite of reforms are being sent to the House floor for consideration. Representative Malcolm Kenyatta, a Democrat from Philadelphia, says the elections reform package will address election security concerns like double voting and improving verification of voter registration, while voter ID is a solution in search of a problem. Historical societies, libraries and other local education and government organizations can apply for state funding to help improve the care and accessibility of Pennsylvania's historical records. On May 2nd, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission disclosed, in their online public library, that a fire broke out at Three Mile Island's Unit 2 reactor building back on Febrary 11th. Plant owners TMI-2 Solutions did not put out a public notice... although they did notify the NRC and the state Department of Environmental Protection at the time. That means a community advisory panel did not learn about the fire until the NRC's public posting on May 2nd. Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman was meeting recently with representatives from a Pennsylvania teachers union when things quickly devolved. Fetterman began repeating himself, shouting and slamming his hands on a desk. The interaction adds to the questions being raised about the Democratic senator's mental health and behavior barely three years after a he survived a stroke and two years after being treated for depression. The Pittsburgh Pirates fired manager Derek Shelton following a rocky opening month to the Major League Baseball season that saw Pittsburgh quickly slip into last place in the NL Central.

The Pennsylvania House is broadening and advancing a consumer data privacy bill. WITF’s Jordan Wilkie reports it would allow Pennsylvanians to ask companies to not collect certain data and have them delete other data already on-hand. A Johnstown-based mining company has gotten the go-ahead to expand an underground coal mine in Westmoreland County. LCT Energy operates the 2800-acre Rustic Ridge “Number One” coal mine in Donegal, just south of the Pennsylvania Turnpike exit there. The company recently got approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to expand the mine northward, underneath the Turnpike. Reid Frazier, from our friends at the Allegheny Front, reports opponents of the project worry about the potential for environmental damage. Dauphin County officials admit a 911 dispatcher did not appropriately escalate a call in accordance with county policy, early Sunday morning, April 13th, an hour after an arson attack on the Governor's Residence. Campgrounds, boat ramps, welcome centers and other recreational facilities run by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in six states are being closed or seeing hours reduced due to funding cuts by the Trump administration. The cuts include Blue Marsh Lake located near Reading, in Berks County. Mike Sullivan’s nearly decade-long tenure running the Pittsburgh Penguins is over. The team announced Monday that it was parting ways with the two-time Stanley Cup winning coach just over a week after the Penguins missed out on the playoffs for a third straight season. And the Hershey Bears open their Calder Cup playoff run this week. Game one is Wednesday night in Hershey, versus the Lehigh Valley Phantoms in an Atlantic Division best-of-five semifinal series. Hershey is seeking its 14th AHL championship overall. Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato gave her quarterly address to County Council, and while there's a lot of uncertainty around funding, there are also things to celebrate. Like more bathrooms in the parks! But if you see any downed birds, be mindful of bird flu and please don't touch.

Tonight on The Last Word: Donald Trump's Cabinet picks are facing multiple controversies. Also, Trump defense secretary pick Pete Hegseth questions the established “rules of war.” Plus, Trump's win throws the U.S. support of Ukraine into question. And Democrats retain a one-seat majority in the Pennsylvania House. Rep. Gregory Meeks, Janai Nelson, Mikhail Zygar, Amb. Michael McFaul, and Pennsylvania State Rep. Joanna McClinton join Jonathan Capehart.

As the world girds its loins in anticipation of a second trump flare up, the Crabs played some of their show from the day after the 2016 election, and it is basically the same. We are still waiting to see if the Democrats can at least take the House, but it doesn't look good. John Fetterman called Green party voters "dips**ts." The Dems managed to hold the Pennsylvania House. The consensus among many pundits is that the Democrats shouldn't have paraded Liz Cheney and the like around as allies. Uber-Catholic Chile has its own growing version of The Satanic Temple.  

Today I talked to Matthew Ferrence about his book I Hate It Here, Please Vote for Me: Essays on Rural Political Decay (West Virginia UP, 2024). When a progressive college professor runs for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in a deeply conservative rural district, he loses. That's no surprise. But the story of how Ferrence loses and, more importantly, how American political narratives refuse to recognize the existence and value of nonconservative rural Americans offers insight into the political morass of our nation. In essays focused on showing goats at the county fair, planting native grasses in the front lawn, the political power of poetry, and getting wiped out in an election, Ferrence offers a counter-narrative to stereotypes of monolithic rural American voters and emphasizes the way stories told about rural America are a source for the bitter divide between Red America and Blue America.

28th Oct: Blockchain DXB Podcast

Katie Meyer and Stephen Caruso of Spotlight PA joined The Spark's journalist roundtable for a segment on Pennsylvania House and Senate Elections. Democrats' hold one seat margin in the House, while Republicans control the Senate by six seats. "Right now, the Senate is controlled by Republicans and the House is controlled by Democrats by just one vote. So, I mean, both of them are in play. Republicans have held the Senate for a very long time. So that is, I think, less likely. But the House could really go either way. And there are a number of races that Stephen in particular has been sort of laser focused on as the most important ones that could flip control. So it's very important. Right now, Pennsylvania's the only divided legislature in the country, I think, still. And we have a Democratic governor. So that makes it difficult for them to really do anything. And so this is going to be it's going to have a huge impact on Pennsylvanians, "Said Meyer. Caruso shared which districts are competitive in this years senate elections. "Democrats have been minority for a while, almost minus a small time in the 90s, basically since the 80s that they had they had a literally like a six month majority or so. So Republicans have controlled the chamber. And to flip it where Democrats have to win in Erie, a seat in Allegheny and a seat in central Pennsylvania and around Harrisburg. And they'd also have to hold one seat in Allegheny County, and that would just tie the chamber. That would basically give them a majority without getting in the legislative walker. But because of that, like, those are the main races. And I think it's just a hard path for Democrats to try and tie the chamber and get some control, "said Caruso.    Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matt Crawford speaks with educator and author Matthew Ferrence about his book, I Hate It Here, Please Vote for Me: Essays on Rural Decay. When a progressive college professor runs for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in a deeply conservative rural district, he loses. That's no surprise. But the story of how Ferrence loses and, more importantly, how American political narratives refuse to recognize the existence and value of nonconservative rural Americans offers insight into the political morass of our nation. Ferrence and I discuss how we feel voters are being spoken at instead of to and how the machine of politics makes some outcomes predetermined against the will of the people who vote for those exact outcomes. A great read at any time in our history but especially now.

Today, Dawn led off the Dawn Stensland Show by highlighting another case of extreme media bias, noting some harassment levied toward a Republican staffer in Pennsylvania that's being underreported due to the associated political parties. Then, Dawn highlights former President Trump's trip yesterday to North Carolina, where he spoke to faith leaders and noted that he feels that God helped him avoid assassination for a cause, renewing his effort to save our Country. Then, Dawn welcomes in Ed Moye, candidate for the 70th District of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, taking on house majority leader Matt Bradford in a very important race. Moye tells a bit about himself, noting how his illustrious law enforcement experience will help aid him in office if elected.

In several ways, akin to the growing collective demographic of people who don't have children, the overlooked value of voter relevance & influence is too often dismissed by dominant political narratives. Tune in for this timely conversation with Matthew Ferrence, author of I Hate It Here, Please Vote for Me: Essays on Rural Political Decay (West Virginia University Press, 2024). In 2020, Matthew Ferrence ran for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, in a deeply-red district, and lost quite badly. In his newest book, he reflects on this experience to explore how American political narratives refuse to recognize the existence and value of nonconservative rural Americans, and how losing offers insight into the political morass of our nation. In I Hate It Here, Please Vote for Me he offers a counter-narrative to stereotypes of monolithic rural American voters and emphasizes that the ways stories are told about rural America are a source for the bitter divide between Red America and Blue America. Tune in live or on-demand to learn more about the underpinnings of the US political landscape and the need to recognize overlooked nonconservative voters in rural America.

Allen Anderson, Candidate District #151 for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, joins the program with thoughts on issues facing his district, his campaign approach (including with those who don't agree with his positions), and his "Love in Action" work providing toilets in South Africa. Gutfeld! co-host Kat Timpf also checks in regarding her new book I Used to Like You Until...(How Binary Thinking Divides Us). The book is both political and an open & honest look at Timpf's own life, with value placed on a willingness to listen and be vulnerable instead of writing people off if there's a difference of opinion (and the dangers of doing so).  We close out our time with conversation about the book's final chapter, "In Case You Still Like Me, Let's Talk Religion."

He is the speaker on Stand in the Gap Radio and Stand in the Gap Television.--As we observe what is happening in society today, we cannot help but conclude that lawlessness abounds. Just earlier today, there was a school shooting at Apalachee High School in north central Georgia which is about 40 miles northeast of Atlanta. At last report there were four killed and at least nine injured. The suspect is in custody.--Crime and violence are off the charts. Ritzy neighborhoods in California are falling prey to thievery. -Smash and grab- is now commonplace. Rape and violence are becoming everyday news. Many district attorneys are shirking their responsibilities and allowing violent criminals to walk. Car jackings go on without penalty. Then there is the impact of illegal immigration which is consuming neighborhoods and whole communities. Illegal drugs are sweeping across the nation. The morality of our nation is being attacked by the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion movement. Political animosity is at an all-time high.--There are many who want to throw up their arms in despair and say, -I give up.- -I'm done with this fight.- -I'm just going into the recesses and protection of my cocoon.- -It just doesn't matter anymore.---As we observe a society that is running amok, it's critical to point out the role and responsibilities of believers today and know that God has us here for such a time as this.

At last report there were four killed and at least nine injured. The suspect is in custody.Crime and violence are off the charts. Ritzy neighborhoods in California are falling prey to thievery. "Smash and grab" is now commonplace. Rape and violence are becoming everyday news. Many district attorneys are shirking their responsibilities and allowing violent criminals to walk. Car jackings go on without penalty. Then there is the impact of illegal immigration which is consuming neighborhoods and whole communities. Illegal drugs are sweeping across the nation. The morality of our nation is being attacked by the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion movement. Political animosity is at an all-time high.There are many who want to throw up their arms in despair and say, "I give up." "I'm done with this fight." "I'm just going into the recesses and protection of my cocoon." "It just doesn't matter anymore."As we observe a society that is running amok, it's critical to point out the role and responsibilities of believers today and know that God has us here for such a time as this.

Dr. Matthew Ferrence is an English professor at Allegheny College.  In 2020, he ran for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in a deeply red district and lost badly. In his new book, “I Hate It Here, Please Vote For Me: Essays on Rural Political Decay,” Ferrence chronicles his election defeat to explore how the American political narratives refuse to recognize the existence and value of rural progressive voters and how his election defeat offers insight into the politics of our nation. In essays focused on living in the countryside, the political power of poetry, and his landslide election loss, Ferrence offers a counter-narrative to stereotypes of rural American voters and emphasizes the misunderstanding of our Red-Blue divide.   Order the book: https://wvupressonline.com/I-Hate-It-Here-Please-Vote-For-Me Greg's Blog (subscribe!): http://zzs-blg.blogspot.com/   #MattTerrence#MatthewTerrence#IHateItHere#PleaseVoteForMe#Campaigns#Electons#RuralPoltics#RedBlueDivide#PolticalScience#PolticalDecay#AlleghenyCollege#Meadville#BradleyRose#Poetry#PoetryBan#PennsylvaniaHouseofRepresentatives#ElectionReform#GreenParty#ToxicModeration#RuralRage#TheWisconsinIdea#AppalacihiaNorth#WendellBerry#Fetterman#FlyOverCountry#PatCummings#GregGodels#ZZBlog#ComingFromLeftField#ComingFromLeftFieldPodcast#zzblog#mltoday

Morning Joe was apparently taken off the air on MSNBC because he wasn't willing to calm his rhetoric. We'll also talk about a video that had eight million views a few days ago. It says that the assassination attempt against President Trump was faked. It was staged, you know, by the campaign and the government.  Didn't Alex Jones have to write a check because he said something in regard to a school shooting? We'll discuss that as well as Nancy Pelosi stressing that Trump CANNOT be allowed to win the election. And, I'll introduce you to a whole number of state reps and politicians and office holders who are applauding the intended shooter of President Trump. What does God's Word say? Episode 1,724 Links:*THIS* is why Morning Joe was taken off the air today in the wake of Trump's assassination attemptThis video insinuating the Trump assassination attempt was staged has nearly 8 million views, 1.5 million likes, and tens of thousands of comments in agreement. Wasn't Alex Jones ordered to pay $1 billion in damages for saying the same thing about Sandy Hook?Meet Jess Branas. She is a councilwoman for Upper Darby Township in Delaware County, PA.Even worse, she works for State House democrat Heather Boyd (PA-163). After the assassination attempt against Trump, she posted on Facebook, “A for effort.”  Representative Heather Boyd, does your employee speak for you? Delaware County, are you okay w/ your councilwoman celebrating violence?  Pennsylvania House democrats, does Jess speak for you? Meet Kenneth Gucker, former CT State Rep (D). He's very upset that the sh**ter missed.He's running again to try to win the District 138 seat from a Republican in the CT House this November. Remember this Connecticut!This guy has all the marks of a classic patsy play. Mentally unstable, young, impressionable loner. Highschool classmates say he has an atrocious shot, got rejected from school gun club.Evidence that the way was laid for him to get onto that roof- ladder, lack of SS coverage, etc. A million questions about SS incompetence that sound an awful lot like sabotage from the inside.PSAKI: Anyone making this political and “attacking the other party…you are making it more likely there's retaliation."  Legacy media is now worried about this becoming “politicized,” after spending the last several years demonizing Trump and his supporters with incendiary political rhetoric and hyper-politicizing every issue from A to Z.“This is not a normal election. He [Trump] must be stopped. He [Trump] cannot be President.” - Nancy Pelosi a few days agoThis past week, @JoyAnnReid said we must keep “Hitler out of the White House” attacking former President Trump.

This week's North American Ag Spotlight is a little different, last week I attended the 2024 American Agri-women Fly-In in Washington DC. Among the many speakers we heard there was one extraordinarily excellent presentation by University of Delaware Professor Emeritus David R. Legates, Ph.D., C.C.M. His content is thought provoking and important as it flies against the grain of current ideology. From the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation. David R. Legates presentation was titled, 'How will Climate Change Affect Agriculture?' he did a deep dive into real climate data and how environmental extremism is causing problems for the American farmer and overall global food security.

Full Hour | Today, Dom leads off the Dom Giordano Program by offering some thoughts on a controversy that erupted locally after Republicans in the Pennsylvania House booed and walked out over a speech by January 6th officer Aquilino Gonell, calling out the attempt to politically dunk by Democrats. Then, Dom reveals that he's broadcasting live from the Hofstra campus today while attending the Talkers Convention, telling about his tumultuous trip up to New York City. Then, Dom revisits a conversation with his producer Dan from yesterday, telling why he thinks Biden is indeed the nominee that will make it through the 2024 election after a poll posted by Rich Zeoli resulted in listeners voting that Biden will be replaced ahead of the election. Also, Dom offers his thoughts on the power rankings for Trump's Vice President, explaining why Donalds continues to surge as a solid choice for Trump. (Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)

Vice President of the Commonwealth Foundation Steve Bloom joins Dawn LIVE! COMMONWEALTH GROW PA BREAKDOWN...  Harrisburg, Pa., April 11, 2024 — Yesterday, Pennsylvania Sens. Scott Martin, Ryan Aument, David Argall, and Tracy Pennycuick and Reps. Jesse Topper and Rob Mercuri introduced “Grow PA,” a higher education reform plan designed to support post-secondary opportunities and career pathways in Pennsylvania. Starkly contrasting Gov. Josh Shapiro's “blueprint,” which still lacks detail and uses vague rhetoric on the issue, the lawmakers' proposal presents a positive step in reforming how taxpayers fund higher education. The plan centers around student-based financial aid, institutional accountability, and workforce development for Pennsylvania's in-demand industries. Commonwealth Foundation Senior Vice President Nathan Benefield issued the following statement in response: “The Commonwealth Foundation applauds these legislators for reframing how we fund higher education. In contrast to Governor Shapiro's empty platitudes, the Grow PA proposal offers concrete, student-focused reforms. “Grow PA funds students in all forms of higher education—from career and technical programs to community colleges to four-year universities—instead of offering a blank check to institutions. Rather than throwing money at buildings, bureaucrats, and blatant censorship, it focuses resources on the post-secondary studies that our commonwealth needs. “Grow PA's scholarship grants would make college degrees more affordable in high-demand fields, such as health care and agriculture. The proposal ties these funds to results and aligns programs with employer demands, helping students avoid debt and a degree that will never lead to a career. “Grow PA represents an important step forward. But we mustn't stop here. Lawmakers must move all state aid to student grants and improve K–12 educational outcomes—through educational choice programs like the Lifeline Scholarship Program—to ensure high school graduates are college-ready.” Stephen (Steve) Bloom is the Vice President at the Commonwealth Foundation.Steve grew up in New York, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. He earned his Bachelor of Science from Penn State University in Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology, and his Juris Doctor from the Dickinson School of Law. He became shareholder in a law firm, later founded his own solo practice, and is now Of Counsel with Irwin & McKnight, P.C., in Carlisle, Pa., where he resides. He was an instructor and lecturer at Messiah College, teaching courses in economics, business law and personal finance, and has served as a faculty member for Pennsylvania Bar Institute continuing legal education programs. In 2010, Steve was elected to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, where he served four two-year terms. In 2018, he entered a competitive race for the U.S. Congress, finishing a strong third among eight candidates in the Republican primary.

Control of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives hinges on a special election taking place today in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Democrats currently have a one-seat majority in the chamber. The results of today's race will determine if Democrats can pick up one more seat or if they become tied with Republicans. We're joined by Melissa Walker, head of Giving Circles over at The States Project, to learn more about who's running and what's at stake.It's looking like a whirlwind of a week for Trump and the many battles he faces in court. After an appeals court ruled last week that he did not qualify for immunity from prosecution, Trump and his lawyers appealed to the Supreme Court on Monday and asked them to pause the case. Meanwhile, the hearing to address the allegations that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis engaged in an improper and unethical relationship with her lead prosecutor will take place on Thursday.And in headlines: Israel's military killed at least 67 Palestinians in Rafah, a new bill that was introduced in Wyoming could take trans kids away from their parents if they receive gender-affirming care, and Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash drivers will walk off the job this Valentine's Day.Show Notes:The State's Project — https://statesproject.org/Vote Save America — https://votesaveamerica.com/Palestine Red Crescent Society — https://www.palestinercs.org/enWhat A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/

Today's Headlines: Electoral trends appear to favor Democrats after two key special elections this week. In the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, former congressional aide Lindsay Powell's victory ensures Democrats retain a 1-vote majority. Meanwhile, in New Hampshire, Democrat Hal Rafter won a special election in a traditionally Republican-leaning district, potentially ending full Republican control of the state government if they win another upcoming special election.
