I’ve been really getting into Clay Street Unit.
I have heard a lot of music in my life — this is up there with my all-time favorite covers. It’s magnificent. Incredible passion and energy and so great crossing over genres.

Stephen Caruso joins Colin this afternoon to discuss a number of topics out of Harrisburg

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

You are painting with a ridiculously broad brush. Not everyone who wants answers is anti-vax.
I'm a Pennsylvanian who simply wants deeper clarification about what the heck "measles-associated" means and if our Gov was fully truthful.
Why should I stop asking questions?

[Tyler Black, MD @tylerblack32]

It's very important to remind yourself that all of the anti-vaxxers tweeting right now about measles don't give a 💩 about children or children dying. It's all about their ideology.

One of Dolly Parton’s works that doesn’t get enough acclaim is Brad Paisley’s “When I Get Where I’m Going” … her and Paisley blend masterfully on it.
But think of this: She sang backup.
Dolly didn’t need to do that for anyone. Speaks of her lack of ego.

@AlPaul I'm talking about one thing. See, Alan, unlike you my life isn't all or nothing. And I'm not married to partisan politics. I'm able to look at each issue. I'm talking about one issue. This one. Try nuance in your life -- just one time. ...uh, Dude.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

I don’t agree with a lot of what RFK says and does. But with the measles vax, he’s been absolutely unfairly attacked in a way — even by KDKA’s Marty Griffin. People are speaking in error to attack him.
Many say he is advocating not to get vaccinated. That is absolutely false.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

@sd6262002 incessantly.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

@FredIriti perhaps. but no one deserves to be misquoted -- particularly with something this big.
He absolutely has never advocated to not get the measles vax ... he has advocated for exactly the opposite.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

@DSebelia79840 @Turboniam22 He isn’t my boy.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

“Measles-associated” is absolutely different than what the Governor said at his news conference yesterday — one which you stood right next to him.
If you can’t understand why there’s a level of mistrust, this is it.
You two need to get your story straight.

[PA Department of Health @PAHealthDept]

"As a pediatrician with more than 30 years of caring for children, I have thoroughly reviewed the case investigation information and sadly can confirm that there were two recent measles-associated deaths in Lancaster County, which were reported to the CDC’s measles response team early Tuesday morning.

DOH’s Epidemiology team thoroughly investigated and verified both individuals tested positive for measles. The information was not reported to the public until the results of the epidemiological investigations were confirmed.
Under state law, PA DOH is not required to report deaths to coroners.

Our staff have regular meetings with professional staff at the CDC, including additional meetings specifically about these cases — in fact, as recently as this afternoon. I deeply appreciate the supportive working relationship between the PA DOH and CDC professional staff.

As a pediatrician, public health professional, and mother, my heart goes out to the impacted families and I have, and will continue to do, everything in my power to protect their confidentiality."
- Dr. Debra Bogen, Secretary of Health

Waiting for anyone covers local government to look into this….
When was this man hired (I know it was recently)?
What does he do?
Salary?
With Allegheny County broke, is it prudent to be hiring a “deputy county manager” right now?
Anyone?
Any reporter want to do their job?

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

When did Kyle Chintalapalli get hired by Allegheny County as a Deputy County Manager?
Does the county really need this?

Also, should the county be hiring the former Chief of Staff for Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey as there is an active investigation into that administration?

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

In light of another stunning CTE study regarding former NFL players, I spoke to Garrett Webster — son of former Steeler Mike Webster.

This was a tremendously thoughtful answer.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

@brianrevak I’m independent. Shapiro is Governor of our commonwealth- yet spends his whole time running for President these days.
What has Shapiro done to make Pennsylvania better? That’s his job. And should be his focus.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

It has been sad watching Josh Shapiro turn from a man with common sense ambition and ideas for Pennsylvania into an operative for his political party, seemingly handed the message of the day and robotically trained to do nothing more than read it and oppose Trump at each turn.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

Like some Ai company is going to commandeer freaking Hartwood Acres, the Deer Lakes spray park or the North Park golf course and forcibly set up a data center.
These bozos need to spend time not on social justice, but stuff that matters. https://t.co/8TKandgpJn

@BenKatko Blew his HDMI

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

@Turboniam22 Because I don’t care if the Governor comes on my show, texts me when I sick or I’m “boys” with anyone. That stuff isn’t important to me. It is to others who yearn to be noticed 24/7 because they weren’t cool growing up.
I’m simply about holding elected officials accountable.

[Colin Dunlap @colin_dunlap]

This young man @stanrajkovich took Derry basketball to great heights just a few months ago.
Now he’s faced with a Leukemia diagnosis. The road will be arduous. He could use the help of everyone in the WPIAL and beyond.
Let’s rally.

Know one debate that always rages?
Standing at concerts.
My thought: Stay home if you can't handle people standing at concerts.
