Newly-elected State Representative Brenda Pugh (R-Luzerne) 120th called on city officials to remove President Joe Biden’s name from signage on the expressway that leads into Scranton, claiming it “will forever be a scar” to the people of northeastern Pennsylvania.
Pugh’s call for action stems from President Biden granting clemency to disgraced former Luzerne County Judge Michael Conahan. Conahan and former Judge Mark Ciavarella were convicted of accepting millions of dollars in kickbacks for sending thousands of juveniles to two private detention centers in which they had a business interest. The juveniles were wrongly imprisoned for minor crimes, if any crime at all. The ordeal became known nationally as the “Kids for Cash” scandal. Pugh condemned Biden and his administration for the move.
“Conahan’s conduct is forever a blight on Pennsylvania and is a slap in the face to the victims and their families who deserve justice to be served for his atrocious crimes. His clemency places complicity and a stamp of approval on his behavior,” Pugh said. “Children are among the most vulnerable Pennsylvanians. This decision is nothing short of a travesty and his clemency is a miscarriage of justice.” […]
… Earlier this year, an online petition was started and has now garnered over 19,000 signatures in favor of scrubbing the President’s name from the highway into the Electric City. The petition also calls on the city to change Biden Street back to its original name, Spruce Street. …

It’s the road you take when you have no idea where you’re supposed to be going, and why? I suggest “Corn-Pop Blvd”
A change to Senator Hoodie?
The only thing that should be named after Biden is a federal penitentiary!
China Road
I kinda remember seeing that “Joe Biden Expressway” exit on I-81 when passing on through there awhile back. What I remember most is that right after that exit sign, was another sign for a truck stop advertising diesel at almost $6/gallon at the time.
I remember thinking: “Yep...Joe Biden Expressway; a road that nobody can afford to drive on.”....LOL
Every time I drive past that sign I think to myself, “Now what would it take to place a ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ sign over Biden’s name?”.

BTTT
How about C’Mon Man Court? or something memorable like “ Pardon Way”
I was just on that. Made me throw up in my mouth a little.
All names worthy of the corrupt senile fool Xiden.
Or a landfill.
***I suggest “Corn-Pop Blvd”***
Use Corn Pops given name, William Morris. They should never name things after living persons. Maybe 25 or 50 years after their deaths.
You start driving on, then it changes direction midway, then by the end, you are completely lost.
How about “The Big Guy Highway”?
“I was just on that. Made me throw up in my mouth a little.”

I’m on that highway twice a year and get a similar, depressed, feeling.
It’s like giving a national medal to Van Jones...
