WPSU and the Penn State Board of Trustees reverse course ... WHYY in Philly to take over WPSU. Best case for WPSU and Central PA.

Long live WPSU, PBS and NPR.

Penn State approves sale of WPSU to WHYY

WPSU had faced a wind-down in operations after a Penn State board committee rejected a proposed deal last month.

Convicted Felon 47 can take all the victory laps he wants to take, he still will not get the Nobel Peace Prize. It has never been given to someone with so much hate in their heart.

Did you know that Israeli Prime Minister Bibi sent suitcases of cash to Gaza, to fund Hamas, so that Bibi can stay in power??

Yes, check my sources. It's true. And now there is going to be peace there???

Taking everything with several grains of salt..

Convicted Felon 47 could say he’s resigning and he still would not deserve the Noble Peace Prize. See, it’s given to SMART people who are not EVIL and SELFISH and NARCISSISTIC.

Let me know if I have to say it louder for those in the back.

Have the day off work today. Testing out the first day walking and getting around with no cane.

Now, I will always use my cane if needed, especially in the winter.

Making strides and progress every day.

If JoePa was still with us and coaching … and James Franklin was an assistant coach … JoePa would’ve fired Franklin a long time ago.

Just putting things in perspective.

The right wants to make a big deal out of Kristi Noem being denied access to a police bathroom in Illinois.

They cast themselves as victims while they kidnap people. They’re trying to incite a shootout between ICE and police so Trump can declare martial law to prevent release of the Epstein Files.

This country is so lost ... and only President Obama can bring it back together.

Fact. Truth.

Today, Secretary of Defense Pete Kegsbreath says so in the military will meet physical standards.

Okay. Then look to see who is the supposed President now. He’s not the spitting image of health.

I’m sorry that the United Nations General Assembly had to be put through the ramblings of an old senile man. Please know not all Americans are like that.

Autism was discovered in 1911, and Tylenol was invented in 1950.

Release the Epstein

“But don’t take it. If you are pregnant, don’t take Tylenol and don’t give it to your baby after it’s born” - Convicted Felon 47.

Reminder he told everyone to inject bleach in their veins to treat Covid.

Do not take his advice. At all. #VoodooScience

I hope someone is making a list at all the performers at the Charlie Circle Kirk happening today.

Boycott every last one of them.

The BBC News continues to serve fascism by misrepresenting Charlie Kirk as a 'conservative activist'.

This is a blatant lie. Charlie Kirk was a pro-Russian fascist agitator, a racist, homophobe, islamophobe and transphobe.

The BBC News is a dangerous threat to democracy.

Trump has imposed a no bag policy at the Charlie Kirk event in Arizona. This has nothing to do with security, it's so that he can sell more $40 hot dogs and $30 bags of chips.
