In this episode of We Talk Weekly, Charles Gregory sits down with Judge Pat Dugan, the Republican challenger running against DA Larry Krasner in one of Philadelphia’s most closely watched races. Known for founding Veterans Court and his long record on the bench, Dugan opens up about his personal journey, why he’s seeking the District Attorney’s office, and how his approach to justice differs from the incumbent’s.
The conversation explores Dugan’s switch from running as a Democrat to now representing the Republican ticket, his views on reform vs. accountability, and how national politics intersects with Philadelphia’s local justice system. We also dive into pressing issues including gun violence, diversion programs, Veterans Court expansion, and fiscal responsibility in the DA’s office.
Whether you agree with his politics or not, this candid discussion gives voters a direct look into who Pat Dugan is, what he stands for, and how he envisions the future of justice in Philadelphia.
