About this listen

Supporters of Attorney General Chris Carr launched an attack ad this week against Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, who has not announced a 2026 Georgia governor's campaign yet but is widely assumed to be the race's frontrunner when he does announce. Also: the U.S. Supreme Court has issued a ruling affecting transgender care for minors nationwide; U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene comes out in opposition of any American military involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict; state Sen. Jason Esteves picks up more endorsements in his Georgia governor's campaign, while former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms own gubernatorial bid is getting off to a slow start.
