Podcasts about Fulton County

In this Rewind episode, listen as Dr. David J. Johns discusses voting and our rights under attack.The Voting Rights Act of 1965 is gone. Not weakened. Not under threat. Gone. The legal architecture that turned 7% Black voter registration in Mississippi into 60%—dismantled, decision by decision, by a Supreme Court that was never neutral and was never on our side.But that's not even the whole story. Because while the courts were killing the VRA, the Justice Department was being turned into a weapon. FBI agents raided a Black state senator's office mid-day—Fox News already on the scene—while allies under federal investigation had their evidence destroyed. Ballots from Fulton County are in federal custody. Arizona. Michigan. They are building the architecture of election interference before the midterms. In public. And most people don't even know it's happening.This episode is about all of it. The Proud Boys as a militia. The Roberts Court as an antidemocratic enforcement mechanism. The Southern Strategy, sixty years old and running on steroids. And the organizing tradition—Ella Baker, Bayard Rustin, Hungary's opposition movement—that proves rigged maps can be beaten and stolen futures can be reclaimed.This is the class I didn't want to have to teach. But you need it. Pull up.SHOW NOTESThe death of the Voting Rights Act—Shelby County v. Holder (2013), Brnovich v. DNC (2021), and the April 29, 2026 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, which Justice Elena Kagan called "all but a dead letter."The pardon of 1,500+ January 6th participants and the DOJ's move to vacate the seditious conspiracy convictions of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers leaders.The FBI raid on Fulton County's election center, the subpoenas targeting Arizona and Michigan 2024 ballots, and what it means for the midterms.The mid-day FBI raid on Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas's office, with Fox News cameras already rolling—and not one charge filed.The two-tier justice system in plain sight: evidence destroyed for allies, prosecutions launched against opponents.Elie Mystal's proposal to add 20 justices to structurally change the Supreme Court's incentive for extremism.How Hungary's opposition built 208 local chapters and 50,000 poll watchers—and won a supermajority against a gerrymandered map.The Afrofuturist tradition of Ella Baker and Bayard Rustin as the organizing inheritance we carry forward.Black Power War Room — blackpowerwarroom.com National Black Justice Coalition — nbjc.org NBJC Equity Week — nbjc.orgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/teach-the-babies-w-dr-david-j-johns--6173854/support.

A new dispute has emerged over the problem-plagued Fulton County Jail. Months ago, the Fulton County Board of Commissioners – by a majority – voted on a resolution to commit approximately $1.3 Billion towards a new jail. Now, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens sent a harshly worded letter to the county lawmakers on Thursday. In the letter, Mayor Dickens criticized the commission for paying for a new jail and not supporting his tax extension proposal. He acknowledged Fulton County "desperately needs humane detention facilities,” but says the $1.3 Billion for a new jail is “the wrong answer.” Dickens also argued it would drain tax revenue away from local communities, and he threatened to stop housing 700 Fulton County detainees in the city’s detention center. Fulton County Commissioner District 5 Commissioner Marvin Arrington, Jr. joined “Closer Look” to respond to the mayor’s letter, saying he immediately reached out to Dickens. Arrington believes the letter is mostly critical of the board's vote to not support Atlanta’s plan to extend its tax allocation district needed for the Mayor's Neighborhood Reinvestment Initiative. Arrington did not agree with fellow commissioners and wanted to table the vote in lieu of more time to fully understand the NRI. Arrington also points out why he disagrees with Dickens’ assessment of how the county chooses to spend its tax dollars – calling the mayor’s comments, “side seat driving.” On today’s program, Arrington gave Host Rose Scott further insight into the process and reason of the county’s decision to replace the “inhumane” Fulton County Jail.

Today, we discuss the latest developments surrounding election integrity, including the ongoing investigations in Arizona, Fulton County, and the growing attention on New Jersey's voter rolls. Reports claim approximately 75,000 non-citizens have appeared on jury rolls, roughly 35,000 remain on voter rolls, and thousands more registrations resurfaced even after cleanup efforts. We also examine reports that New Jersey officials are resisting requests from the Department of Justice to provide voter registration information for review.Sponsor:My PillowWww.MyPillow.com/johnSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In February 1893, Atlanta endured a week of financial scandal, suicide and shocking violence that newspapers would later remember as Black Week. The darkest chapter unfolded inside the home of one of the city's most respected families, where two sisters were murdered and a third calmly confessed. Through contemporary accounts and Julia Force's own writings, this episode explores one of Georgia's most haunting nineteenth-century murder cases and the mystery that still surrounds it.

Welcome back to The Georgia Politics Podcast for Part 2 of The Creek Campaign. The movement to create Johns Creek had gained momentum, but one crucial hurdle remained: convincing voters to say yes. Joined by former Fulton County Commissioner Liz Hausmann and community leader Chris Cupit, we revisit the referendum campaign that would determine whether northeast Fulton County would finally become Georgia's newest city. Drawing on their firsthand experiences, Hausmann and Cupit recount the grassroots effort to educate voters, build community support, navigate organized opposition, and make the case that local control would lead to a stronger future. They share stories from the campaign trail, the challenges of uniting diverse neighborhoods behind a common vision, and the excitement that surrounded referendum day. The Creek Campaign is a special two-part series from The Georgia Politics Podcast, chronicling the people, politics and pivotal moments behind the creation of Johns Creek, Georgia. Together, these conversations reveal how a citizen-led movement became one of the most successful municipal incorporations in Georgia history. Connect with The Georgia Politics Podcast, HERE.

Following the loss of two major hospitals in south Fulton County, multiple stakeholders have worked together in recent years to bring a fully operating hospital to the area. Phase one of Grady South is already completed, with a stand-alone emergency department in Union City. But there’s more work to be done for "a medical office building offering imaging services, a surgery center, specialty clinics, pharmacy services, rehabilitation, and a full floor dedicated to pediatric care provided by Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta." Fulton County Commissioner Marvin Arrington Jr. joins “Closer Look” to discuss what it took to get the center approved. Plus, as he prepares to leave the commission, he'll reflect on his time in office including accomplishments and ongoing challenges for the county, as well as his next chapter. Also, Angela Stanley is Georgia’s new State Librarian and Vice Chancellor of Public Libraries for the University System of Georgia. We'll hear her vision re: strategic leadership for the nationally recognized Georgia Public Library Service (GPLS) and the Georgia Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (GLS), charting the future of library services statewide.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! Before Johns Creek became one of Georgia's largest and most successful cities, it was simply a collection of neighborhoods with a shared identity - but no city government to call its own. In Part 1 of The Creek Campaign, we journey back to the origins of the municipalization movement that transformed northeast Fulton County. Joined by former Georgia Speaker of the House Mark Burkhalter, we explore the area's explosive growth, mounting frustrations with county government, and the community leaders who began asking a simple but consequential question: Would Johns Creek be better off as its own city? Drawing on Burkhalter's firsthand perspective and deep knowledge of the legislative process, we examine the political climate of the late 1990s and early 2000s, the challenges that sparked the movement, the grassroots organizing that brought neighbors together, and the first efforts to turn an ambitious idea into political reality. The Creek Campaign is a special two-part series from The Georgia Politics Podcast, chronicling the people, politics and pivotal moments behind the creation of Johns Creek, Georgia.

Episode 5529: Slow Walking Fulton County; Weakness Of Republicans

Donald Trump does not need to stuff a ballot box to steal the 2026 midterm elections. He needs subpoenas, search warrants, and sixty one days of manufactured doubt between Election Day on November 3 and the swearing in of the new Congress on January 3. In this episode, I walk through the entire threat model, step by step, so you can spot the con before he runs it.We start with the January seizure of 656 boxes of ballots from Fulton County, Georgia, and Trump's July 16 televised address claiming China, noncitizen voting, and compromised election systems have already tainted the midterms. Then I break down how a stolen House majority would work in practice: manufacturing a presumption of fraud before votes are cast, turning close Democratic wins into federal criminal investigations, pressuring county boards to delay election certification, and exploiting the House clerk, credentials, and the opening roll on January 3 to keep an elected majority from organizing the chamber. No conspiracy corkboard, no fan fiction. Just what has already happened, what Trump has already said, and where the real choke points in the American election system sit.In this episode:The Fulton County ballot seizure and why grabbing original election records mid-cycle mattersTrump's foreign interference claims vs. what the intelligence community found about 2020How "election interference" became a magic phrase that replaces evidenceFederal election investigations across at least eight states and DOJ voter roll demands in roughly thirtyElection certification delays as a political weaponJanuary 3, the House clerk, certificates of election, and the credentials fight nobody is ready forThe Adelita Grijalva seven-week swearing-in delay and what it proved about procedural powerWhy the 25th Amendment fantasy is bullshit, and what the real defenses areThe 2020 playbook: Raffensperger, fake electors, and the pressure campaign before January 6Hungary's 79 percent turnout election and what blowout margins can and cannot doWhat voters can do right now: registration checks, ballot curing, poll working, and evidence preservationCheck your voter registration today at your state's official election website.

July 18, 2026; 7am: President Trump packed his Thursday primetime address with false and misleading claims about U.S. election security. Trump unveiled documents he claimed provided definitive proof of widespread voter fraud, but many of those are directly undercut by the documents the White House released. Chief Washington Correspondent for MeidasTouch, Scott MacFarlane, and Jackie Lopez, partner with the Elias Law Group, join “The Weekend” to debunk some of his election conspiracies.

Once you start paying attention to the words they parrot and the propaganda they push, it's far easier to hear the panic in democrats' voices when they're asked outside the Capitol if the media should refuse to cover the President's address tomorrow night. Censorship? Isn't that un-American? Joe Biden wants to tell you all about his new book... if you can understand what he says... and the "safest most secure election ever" has apparently never heard of Sidney Powell. Listen to the former federal prosecutor tell you ALL ABOUT the fraud in Fulton County, Georgia.  

Politics and democracy reporter for The Guardian US, George Chidi explains how he crossed paths with the late U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) in Fulton County, Georgia, what his death means for the midterm elections in the Deep South, and shares his analysis on other political topics.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tavis-smiley--6286410/support.

We're about 110 days out from the midterms, and the threats to our elections are mounting. This week alone, President Trump fired all remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission, the federal agency that helps states fund and administer elections. At the same time, a federal judge blocked baseless subpoenas targeting election workers in Fulton County, while the Department of Justice sent threatening letters to election officials across the country.On this week's episode of The Briefing, Michael Waldman is joined by fellow Brennan Center experts to break down the federal government's latest attacks on our elections — and the relentless work to push back and protect the vote.Recorded on July 13, 2026.The Brennan Center is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that works to repair, revitalize, and defend our systems of democracy and justice so that they work for all Americans. The Brennan Center cannot support or oppose any candidate for office.

The dynamic landscape of election integrity is reaching a boiling point, and Joe is steering right into the storm center. Centered on an unyielding pursuit of the truth, this hard-hitting episode untangles the seismic implications of the early 2026 FBI raid on Fulton County's election infrastructure. Armed with a predictive mathematical model that he personally delivered to Washington D.C. on January 4, 2021, Joe connects the dots between historical red flags and the current rumored moves of the Trump administration. As reports circulate that both Georgia Democrat Senators face a challenge over the legitimacy of their seats, the broadcast pulls back the curtain on a system under massive scrutiny, setting the stage for an explosive national address.Joining the broadcast to break down the legal and strategic battle lines is constitutional lawyer and former Army Green Beret Ivan Raiklin. Raiklin brings receipts, exposing highly critical, time-stamped text exchanges from December 2020 that anticipated the Georgia runoff anomalies long before they materialized on the public stage. The conversation aggressively challenges official narratives, asserting that what mainstream platforms dismiss as debunked theories are actually documented patterns of operation that the deep state is desperate to keep buried.The stakes intensify as the focus shifts to the recent, highly scrutinized death of Senator Lindsey Graham. Raiklin delivers a calculated breakdown of the 8:30 PM medical emergency 911 dispatch, seamlessly aligning it with the abrupt and heavy FBI presence reported at Graham's private residence. Far from a routine tragedy, Joe and Ivan analyze how these unfolding developments alter the political calculus entirely. This is an unfiltered, high-octane broadcast dedicated to pulling raw facts from the shadows and ensuring the ultimate truth is finally shown to the American people.

The ultimate political shakeup has arrived!

The political landscape is fracturing!

The Internet is on absolute fire with conspiracy theories following the sudden passing of Senator Lindsey Graham!

Greg Bluestein hosts a listener-driven look at the political questions shaping Georgia's summer. He weighs the FBI's renewed scrutiny of Fulton County's 2020 election handling, Jon Ossoff's debate strategy against Mike Collins and why Raphael Warnock looks more likely than Ossoff to draw 2028 presidential speculation. Bluestein also digs into Rick Jackson's unsettled GOP support and the split-ticket voters who could decide Georgia's 2026 races. Have a question or comment for the show?

Scot Turner and Buzz Brockway are back with a packed Peach Pundit Podcast covering Georgia politics, the U.S. Senate race, election investigations, privacy, policing, and a Fourth of July weekend that nearly broke Delta. The show opens with Scot's trip to Washington, D.C. for America's 250th birthday celebration, Buzz's Peachtree Road Race recap, and the patriotic highs and travel-delay lows of Independence Day weekend. Then the conversation turns serious as Scot and Buzz discuss Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock finally calling on Graham Platner to drop out of the Maine U.S. Senate race after new allegations and renewed scrutiny over his Nazi tattoo. Back in Georgia, they break down the first general-election polling in the governor's race and U.S. Senate race, including Rick Jackson vs. Keisha Lance Bottoms, Mike Collins vs. Jon Ossoff, ticket-splitting, voter enthusiasm, and why inflation and high prices remain the dominant issue for Georgia voters. Scot and Buzz also dig into the growing controversy over Flock cameras and automated license plate readers after a series of arrests involving law enforcement officers accused of misusing license plate data. As former co-sponsors of Georgia's 2018 license plate reader privacy law, they debate the value of the technology, the dangers of government surveillance, and whether stronger criminal penalties and guardrails are now needed. Then they turn to the FBI's renewed review of Fulton County's 2020 election records, the continuing obsession with relitigating 2020, and why the politics of election denial could hurt Republicans who need to focus on affordability, public safety, and the races actually on the ballot in November. Finally, they discuss HB 295, a new Georgia law allowing property owners to seek compensation from local governments for certain patterns of non-enforcement and public nuisance, including illegal camping, obstruction, shoplifting, drug use, public intoxication, and other quality-of-life issues. In this episode: Jon Ossoff, Raphael Warnock, Graham Platner, and the Maine U.S. Senate race Nazi tattoos, candidate scandals, and political hypocrisy Georgia polling: Rick Jackson vs. Keisha Lance Bottoms Georgia U.S. Senate polling: Mike Collins vs. Jon Ossoff Inflation, health care costs, and the issues Georgia voters care about most Flock cameras, license plate readers, and police misuse of surveillance data Georgia's 2018 license plate reader privacy law The FBI, Fulton County, and the 2020 election investigation Why relitigating 2020 could distract Republicans in 2026 HB 295 and local-government liability for non-enforcement Fourth of July in Washington, D.C., the Peachtree Road Race, and Delta travel chaos Peach Pundit Podcast is Georgia's conversation about politics, elections, campaigns, public policy, and the people shaping the Peach State.

CannCon and Chris Paul close out the week and the runup to America's 250th with a discussion-heavy Friday. The New York Post reveals the FBI had Democrat insider Alexis Podesta wearing a wire inside Gavin Newsom's inner circle since June 2024, and CannCon connects it back to Alpha's "tickling the wire" prediction, noting the huge implications for both Newsom's presidential hopes and the California governor's race. The FBI assigns 260 analysts to a priority Fulton County 2020 election investigation under Kash Patel, and CannCon walks through why investigating enough jurisdictions establishes the systemic pattern even if every election cannot be checked. Mitch McConnell was found unconscious in his home, deepening the illegitimate Congress theme. Chris Paul opens the show with a sharp meditation on how sports are exporting human judgment to machines we wrongly assume are objective, and where that leads for adjudicating crimes. The back half turns cultural: a viral Trump derangement meltdown over an AI Teddy Roosevelt hologram, Jodie Foster saying F1 was written by AI, the CIA funding Jackson Pollock, USAID's apparent role in propping up rap music, and a lengthy MK Ultra segment on Sidney Gottlieb and why the program never actually ended.

July 2, 2026; 4pm: Nicolle Wallace and guests talk about the breaking news that the FBI is directing hundreds of analysts to dig into Georgia election probe subjects. Trump lost Georgia by 11,779 votes in 2020, but he has stood firm in his unproven claims that there was election fraud in that presidential election.

Mea Culpa welcomes back, intrepid newsman, Ali Velshi. Host of “Velshi” and seemingly the favorite fill-in host of every other MSNBC Prime Time News Show. Velshi also reported live from the frontlines of the George Floyd protests, he was drenched during hurricane Ian. And dodged incoming fire from Russian artillery when he fearlessly reported live from the frontlines in Ukraine. A concerned citizen of the world, Velshi seems to be everywhere there is an injustice. He has been a contributor at CNN, Al Jazeera America, and NBC to name a few. He joins us on Mea Culpa amidst this historic moment of Trump's fourth arrest. Just last week he read the entirety of the 98-page indictment on the air and into the historic record. This is a true moment of infamy. 

Donald Trump knows he is on target to lose the midterms, so he's busy laying the groundwork now for challenging the outcome in the fall. That's why he seized the 2020 ballots in Fulton County, why he's determined to get hatchet man Bill Pulte in place as director of national intelligence, and why he's pushing the South to gerrymander back to the dark days of Jim Crow. This is not the time to despair or to outsource the fight for democracy to others. Sen. Warnock also talks about centering ordinary people in politics, the Supreme Court's deeply dishonest Callais ruling, the performative piety of JD Vance and Mike Johnson, the high likelihood that Trump mocks God—and doesn't believe in anything except his own self-enrichment. Plus, Tim on the deliciousness of Nancy Mace's fifth-place showing in the South Carolina governor's race.Sen. Raphael Warnock joins Tim Miller. show notes Sen. Warnock's new book, "The Crooked Places Made Straight," out next week

Sarah Longwell and Andrew Weissmann discuss what Democrats can actually do at the hearing, why Trump is screaming election fraud while gutting the unit that investigates it, and why his DOJ now holding the only copy of the Fulton County ballots should concern you.

From the state where Trump claims he'd win if Jesus counted the votes, Sarah and Sam joined Tim live on stage in San Diego to debate who is the most cucked Republican and whether Bill Cassidy should get credit for his late-in-the-game YOLO opposition to Trump. Also, Jeff Bezos has Tim rethinking his opposition to socialism, and how could Bibi and Trump have had such an absurd plan for a new Iranian president? At the top of the pod, Amanda Carpenter runs down the thug fund (don't call it a slush fund) and Trump's effort to get permanent immunity from any tax liability for himself and his family. Plus, POTUS's revenge tour may backfire, and the administration may try using Fulton County as a test case for taking over vote counting in Democratic counties. Amanda Carpenter, Sarah Longwell, and Sam Stein join Tim Miller.show notes: Jon on how Trump's global health cuts are undermining the response to the Ebola outbreak Lauren on how the Georgia governor's race may be the most important one in the country And we still have a few tickets left for TONIGHT at Bulwark Live: LA at 7pm.
