Reverend Warnock did just that in Q1: his $1.5 million to $1.1 million each for Sen. Loeffler and Rep. Collins. It’s not hard to imagine that if Sen. Loeffler could avoid a spirited primary
Rep. Vernon Jones (D-Slimeball) has carried a cloud of controversy over Georgia politics for 20 years with no signs of letting up. Today he endorsed President Trump (R-Slimeball) perhaps for all their similarities: ALLEGED sexual assault, being unfit for public office, rampant attention whoring.. I mean, you name it and they’re peas in a pod!
It’s hard to not feel sympathy for Senator Loeffler after reading her woe-is-me op-ed in The Wall Street Journal. Still, it’s a good thing she’s finally doing what the honorable Senator should have done four months ago by divesting herself from her stock holdings.

He was coming to Atlanta. Then he wasn’t. Now he might. That’s the latest 12 hours in the life of the Tumultuous Trump Presidency. The AJC quotes Trump saying “I may be going” to the CDC.

Attorney General Chris Carr’s office says there was no attempt from the DPG to hack election information during the 2018 election. Two days before the election in a totally-not-politically-motivated case based off totally-not-specious claims that Democrats had committed “possible cyber crimes” with online election databases. The AG’s memo about the state’s investigation said in short:
Former state senator and U.S. Attorney Ed Tarver is running for Senate. We wrote that he was prepping his bid against Kelly Loeffler even as Democratic kingmakers were clearing the deck for Raphael Warnock. Tarver said he in Georgia Senate Race Boogaloo Seat 1: “to restore decency to Washington, bring real leadership, and fight for
Vice President Joe Biden is poised to comfortably win the Georgia POTUS Primary. The latest poll from Landmark Communications/WSB has Biden with more than twice the amount of his two closest rivals, Senator Bernie Sanders and former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg. The triumvirate have 32.1%, 14.2% and 14% respectively. However, the most dangerous foe is
Democrats seemed poised to be to rally behind Raphael Warnock for Senate on Thursday. Buried in Politico’s reporting on Warnock’s announcement is news that Ed Tarver is finalizing his campaign for the same Senate seat.
