Dec 07, 2023•49 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
First up: A look at an Atlanta Journal-Constitution exclusive: Tamar Hallerman joins the podcast to discuss the list of potential witnesses Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis may call in the election conspiracy case against Donald Trump. Former members of the Trump administration on the list obtained by the AJC include Vice President Mike Pence and Attorney General Bill Barr, plus state GOP leaders including Gov. Brian Kemp, Attorney General Chris Carr and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
Then: Cobb County Commissioner Jerica Richardson joins the podcast to discuss her plan to run for the U.S. House. Richardson declared her intentions to run for the 6th District seat long before the Legislature drew the new congressional map, which, if approved by the court, may make it difficult for a Democrat to win the district. She answers a key question about whether she’d shift her focus and run in a district already held by a Democratic incumbent.
Plus: Greg, Patricia and Bill share their observations about the GOP presidential debate in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
