Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown is sending shockwaves across Georgia, with new policies affecting communities statewide. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, we hear from State Senator Nabilah Islam Parkes about how Democrats plan to respond.
Then, as Senator Jon Ossoff campaigns for reelection, he’s still facing backlash from some Jewish voters over a vote last year on U.S. arms to Israel. We’ll break down the potential impact on his 2026 race.
And, Governor Brian Kemp’s request to extend the deadline for Hurricane Helene aid was denied by the Trump administration. We’ll explain what this means for Georgians still recovering from the storm.
Plus, it’s Presidents Day, and we’ll hear from descendants of former presidents Harry Truman and Grover Cleveland. They’re part of the exclusive Society of Presidential Descendants, and they’ll share why this day holds special meaning.
