Last night, Israel launched a major military campaign against Iran in what it billed as a “preemptive” strike on the nation's nuclear capabilities. But this is only the beginning: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said the operation will “continue for as many days as it takes to remove this threat.” And with the Trump administration already in talks with Iran over nuclearization — and emphasizing that the U.S. was “not involved” in the strikes — you can be sure that this is going to drive the conversation in Washington today as everyone tries to parse what this means for President Donald Trump's foreign policy, the U.S. plots out its response and fault lines get exposed within the MAGA coalition.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett increasing traffic signal contract by more than $13 million Gwinnett County commissioners approved a $19.95 million agreement to enhance traffic signals and intelligent transportation systems, up from the original $6.67 million contract. The increase, funded by state grants and a 2023 special sales tax, will allow for extensive upgrades, including replacing poles, installing detector loops, maintaining signals, and implementing advanced traffic management systems. Transportation Director Lewis Cooksey highlighted the expanded funding’s role in significantly boosting the county’s ongoing traffic signal improvement efforts. STORY 2: Kemp won't run for U.S. Senate in 2026 Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp announced he will not run for the U.S. Senate in 2026, leaving the race against Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff wide open. Kemp, seen as the GOP's strongest contender, cited family considerations and pledged to support a strong Republican nominee. Ossoff, considered vulnerable, has raised over $11 million this year, setting a record for a Senate incumbent. Democrats called Kemp's decision a setback for Republicans, while GOP hopefuls now scramble to fill the void in a race critical to Senate control. STORY 3: Lawrenceville changing trash pickup times because of summer heat Lawrenceville has implemented a summer trash pickup schedule, running from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Thursday, to protect sanitation workers from extreme heat. Residents must place trash on the curb by 6 a.m. on collection days, with the city recommending doing so the night before. While pickup days remain unchanged, early morning noise from trash trucks is expected. The schedule will continue through October 2. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.

Briscoe Park, following a groundbreaking ceremony last week. The $11.3 million facility, two decades in the making, is set to open in summer 2026. It will include two basketball courts, an indoor walking track, multi-purpose rooms, an aerobics room, and an outdoor pavilion. STORY 5: Grayson will pay county more for tax billing Grayson will continue using the Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner’s Office for property tax billing through 2028 but at a higher cost. The per-parcel fee will rise from $1.80 to $3.10, with $2.10 covering county expenses and $1 compensating Tax Commissioner Denise Mitchell, a new addition to the contract. This 72% increase follows a 2021 agreement, with the updated terms reflecting changes in how cities negotiate tax billing contracts. The new deal ensures Grayson’s tax services for the 2025-2028 tax years.
