The #GAGov race is a Trump loyalty contest — Rick Jackson says he wants to be Trump’s favorite governor — and calls Burt Jones “so lazy” he squandered Trump’s endorsement.

Trump loyalist and #GAGov candidate Burt Jones is cheering Trump’s “bold leadership” in launching a war with Iran — even as Americans die from the fallout.

Matthew Yglesias supports "Geoff Duncan for Georgia governor. Duncan is the former Republican lieutenant governor of Georgia who broke with the party over Trump’s 2020 election lies and who is now running in the Democratic primary. Duncan brings the sort of crossover appeal that likely offers Democrats their best shot at flipping the governor’s mansion."

Republican-led #GA Senate Committee subpoenas request Fani Willis' testimony & documents related to her ongoing #2020ElectionInterference RICO case & her relationship w/ former special prosecutor Nathan Wade.

Through her attorney, former #GAgov Roy Barnes, she has filed a motion to block the subpoenas, but it is unclear if a judge to hear her motion will be found before the Friday deadline for her to produce the docs or if she might actually just ignore the subpoena.

Amazing what voting history I’ve been able to find about #MuscogeeCounty. #gapol #galeg #gagov #gasen #ColumbusGA #ColGA #SWGA

This is how much territory Lucy McBath will have represented by 2025 if we end up with the GOP’s trash congressional map. 2.2 million people, around 1/5 of the state population. This is how you make #LucyMcBath the next governor. #TeamMcBath #mcBath2026 #gapol #galeg #gagov #Georgia

If the new Georgia map stands and Lucy McBath runs in the new GA-6, she will have represented all this territory (2.2 million people in the ATL metro)

Indicted Trump ally & Fake Elector, #GOP #Georgia State Sen. Shawn Still, could be suspended from the state's legislature.

Really?

A 100% Republican 3-mbr commission has been assigned by #GAgov Kemp to look into it.

Not holding my breath.
