SHAPIRO FAILS PURPLE COUNTY, MARTINO EXPOSES PBS DIVIDE | HUMAN EVENTS DAILY

Jack Posobiec hosts Human Events Daily with venture capitalist and Bucks County father Paul Martino as PBS's five-part series Bucks County, USA hits air this weekend.   Oscar-winner Barry Levinson and Robert May spent years filming the school-board wars that tore through Central Bucks after COVID: closures, library books, flags, and parents who stopped speaking. Martino's daughter Vanessa and her best friend Evi sit at the center. Shapiro once called Bucks "the swingiest of all swing counties." Martino was in the room—and on camera.   Late budget. Sports subsidies and corporate tax credits with a weak return. Data-center flip-flops. A measles fight with HHS. Local culture-war blowback in the county he branded a national bellwether. Martino walks through what the series shows—and what it leaves out.   How lawful waves—Irish famine ships, Italians, Germans, and the rest—entered under a Constitution that demanded allegiance, not amnesty. Why that path built the republic, and why today's fights over schools and sovereignty start with the same founding text.   If a purple county can split over classrooms and a PBS camera, can the Constitution still hold the country together—or have we already chosen sides?
