The President Has Been Shot                 Today's topics include: That's what John heard over the PA system at South Hills Catholic High School - 56 years ago to the day - when JFK was assassinated... Next, Liz Allen (City Councilwoman, Erie PA) joins the show to discuss a mix of baseball and politics. Taxpayers helped build a ball park out in Erie for a team called the Seawolves, who serve as a Double-A affiliate for the Detroit Tigers. However, recent news is suggesting that Erie is among a list of many that could lose their team's affiliation...putting both the taxpayers and the city of Erie in a lurch. And finally, Donna Freitas (professor at Adelphi University) discusses a college class she taught, where she required her students to give up their smartphones for a week. What she learned from this experiment is both shocking and eye-opening.

NOW HER HAIR IS GREEN
  Which means Megan Rapinoe, former star of the U.S.Women’s National Soccer team, is a little uglier than she used to be. It hasn’t made her any smarter. She was one of more than 400 athletes to send letters to the NCAA urging it NOT to ban transgender women (men) from competing against women in sports. 
 H. Sterling Burnett of Heartland Institute has lots of reasons why you should hope Joe Biden and/or the people pulling his strings, don’t get four more years to implement their insane, counterproductive environmental measures, especially wind turbines.
   When the Big Guy made an idiot out of himself again by reading the word “PAUSE” from the teleprompter, which was meant as a reminder for him to, you know, PAUSE during a speech, his staff should have seen that as the clincher. He’s totally lost it and is incapable of being a White House usher, much less President of the United States.

WHAT WOULD REAGAN DO?
  That’s a question often asked by conservatives. His comments to the administration at the University of California back in 1966 are a pretty good indication of how he would react to the “student unrest” in America today.
 Hans von Spakovsky, legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation, listened to all three hours of the hearing at the Supreme Court on Presidential immunity. The decision will come down in June but he says you  shouldn’t expect the drama to end.
   The NFL draft is tonight. Former WPXI TV sportscaster John Fedko joins a discussion about how the Steelers’ draft (and other sports) were covered by the local TV stations back when local news still mattered. (A long time ago.)
The competition was fierce.

THERE MIGHT BE SOME GOLDFISH SWALLOWING GOING ON
   The list of colleges experiencing mass anti-Israel/ Pro-Hamas demonstrations is growing. It might have reached the level of a fad. And there is evidence that a good number of the kiddies don’t really know what they’re demonstrating for or against.
Liel Leibovitz, editor at large for Tabletmag.com has been studying what’s been going on in academia for a long time and this show is devoted to what he’s found. He says you shouldn’t be surprised by what’s going on now because it is all part of a plan that began more than 20 years ago and that the universities have actually become threats to national security. 
    He also says that there are simple solutions. Including deportation.
