What’s inside:

• The PA Supreme Court retention vote explained (and why the wording trips people up). Our Podpinion - Vote No on retaining the three judicial PA Supreme Court justices (on the back of your PA ballot).
• DC’s budget merry-go-round: “clean CRs,” shutdowns, and who actually feels it (SNAP/EBT, services, families).
• Immigration & enforcement: ICE at hearings, and an arrest wave involving CDL-holding illegal immigrant truck drivers.
• Fetterman breaks with party on border votes? Our take.
• Shapiro and the PA political backdrop headed into election season.
• Ballot oddities: dropped-out candidates still on the ballot.

In Episode 22, we dig into a “fake independent” Senate run and where the money lands, a local explosives case in the Poconos, and why crime feels close to home when bail fails. We also tackle microplastics (packaging, dyes, and what sits in your water), budget battles vs. essentials, immigration funding paths, erased history and cultural literacy, the White House ballroom story, and Venezuela/China/fentanyl.
