A massive solar panel recycling facility called Solarcycle is coming soon to Cedartown, a small community in Northwest Georgia near the Alabama border. Solarcycle got a $64 million tax credit through the Inflation Reduction Act to build a second facility that will make solar panel glass, but according to the company, the groundbreaking is on hold as Congress considers gutting the clean energy tax credits in the new federal budget. On this week’s episode of “Plugged In,” hosts Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali look at what this could mean for Cedartown and Georgia’s flourishing industries making electric vehicles, batteries and solar panels. Plus, how the conflict between Israel and Iran is exposing divisions among Georgia Republicans and a look at the fall of the in-person campaign launch.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Top Stories for June 24th Publish Date: June 24th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, June 24th and Happy Birthday to Frances McDormand I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Georgia Republicans, Democrats disagree over bombing Iran Gwinnett County students earn Georgia Foundation for Agriculture scholarships Katie Rutherford — a Parkview grad and childhood cancer survivor — now works at the very hospital that saved her life All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Georgia Republicans, Democrats disagree over bombing Iran Georgia politicians are divided along party lines over President Trump’s decision to bomb Iranian nuclear sites. Republicans, including Gov. Brian Kemp and state Senate Majority Leader Jason Anavitarte, praised the operation as a strong stance against Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Democrats, like Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, criticized the lack of congressional authorization and warned of potential long-term conflict. U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene broke from GOP ranks, opposing the strikes and cautioning against foreign wars. The debate highlights contrasting views on military action and diplomacy among Georgia’s leaders. STORY 2: Gwinnett County students earn Georgia Foundation for Agriculture scholarships Khalia Clemons of Norcross and Sydney Wade of Dacula, students at Gwinnett Technical College, have been awarded $1,500 scholarships from the Georgia Foundation for Agriculture. The scholarships support students pursuing agriculture-related training, with Clemons focusing on environmental horticulture and Wade actively involved in community gardening and the Horticulture Club. The Georgia Foundation for Agriculture, alongside the Georgia Farm Bureau, aims to cultivate future agricultural leaders. Gwinnett County, Georgia’s top horticulture-producing county, highlights the importance of these scholarships in fostering the next generation of agricultural professionals. STORY 3: Katie Rutherford — a Parkview grad and childhood cancer survivor — now works at the very hospital that saved her life Katie Rutherford, a 23-year-old cancer survivor, now works as a program coordinator at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, the same place that saved her life as a teen battling rhabdomyosarcoma. Diagnosed at 15, she endured 48 rounds of chemotherapy and 27 rounds of radiation, completing treatment in 2018. After graduating from Valdosta State, she joined Children’s, bringing a unique perspective to her role by connecting with patients and donors through her own experience. Now cancer-free for eight years, Katie remains vigilant about her health and is determined to live life to the fullest, inspiring others with her journey.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: Northside Hospital Gwinnett performs first endoscopic spine surgery Northside Hospital surgeons have performed their first ultra-minimally invasive endoscopic spine surgery, offering faster recovery and less pain for back pain sufferers. Using Arthrex technology, Dr. Vamsi Kancherla completed the procedure on May 22 at Northside Hospital Gwinnett. The technique uses a pencil-sized endoscope and tiny incision, reducing muscle disruption and eliminating the need for large incisions or bone removal. Often done in an outpatient setting, patients can potentially go home the same day. This innovation reflects Northside’s commitment to providing advanced, minimally invasive care for improved patient outcomes. STORY 5: Norcross native defends America from under the sea Chief Petty Officer Matthew Rorabaugh, a Norcross native, serves as an electronics technician aboard the USS West Virginia at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay. With 20 years in the Navy, Rorabaugh upholds the submarine force’s mission of strategic deterrence and national security. Submarines like the USS West Virginia play a critical role in defense, from launching ballistic missiles to supporting special operations. Rorabaugh credits his community’s values of hard work and patriotism for shaping his career and honors his wife, Catherine, for her support during his service. The Navy celebrates its 250th anniversary this year, emphasizing its vital role in global security. STORY 6: Seven charged with running online fentanyl, meth marketplace Seven Georgians have been indicted for allegedly using a dark web vendor, WallStreetBets, to ship fentanyl and methamphetamine nationwide. The defendants, including Myron Stodghill and Jabari Cooper, face conspiracy charges with potential life sentences. Authorities seized drugs, firearms, and vehicles during May 19 searches in metro Atlanta. The operation reportedly involved 2,777 sales, using prepaid shipping labels paid with cryptocurrency and fake return addresses. The FBI, U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and other agencies are investigating the case, highlighting the growing use of the dark web in drug trafficking. STORY 7: Gwinnett Sheriff's Office claims ICE-detained journalist interfered with TRACE Unit operations The Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office has charged Hispanic journalist Mario Guevara with traffic misdemeanors, accusing him of compromising its anti-trafficking operations. Guevara, a Salvadoran journalist with a U.S. work permit, was arrested during a protest and is now in ICE custody. His attorney questions the timing of the charges, which surfaced after his arrest. State Rep. Marvin Lim criticized the Sheriff's Office for a lack of transparency on immigration policies, highlighting concerns over its cooperation with ICE. Guevara, known for covering immigration raids, faces ongoing legal and immigration challenges. Sign-off – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

In normal election years its hard to get voters engaged in public service commission races. In 2025, Georgians have the rare opportunity to elect two to the five-seat PSC board, and the candidates are adding up. With data centers potentially impacting your utility bills (and why should they?) and rates continuing to climb while Georgia Power rakes in eye-popping profits, these two races could become high profile. An opportunity for utility customers to rebuke their rate increases has to be tantalizing. Having a new consumer watchdog pop up is even more good news for utility customers / voters. ------International students in South Carolina, here in Georgia and throughout the country are seeing their student visas get revoked. Agein, something about 'due process' and first amendment rights being 'inalienable.' ------Lastly, my innate reaction to the news that former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms considering a gubernatorial run hasn't really come together quite as well as the AJC's Bill Torpy managed to word it, so I'm endorsing his rationale that she's a 'dream candidate' ... for Georgia Republicans to run someone against.
As Georgia Democrats regroup after a tough election cycle, some leaders are taking a proactive approach to rebuilding the party. On today's episode of Politically Georgia, hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy sit down with State Sen. Josh McLaurin and State Rep. Ruwa Romman to discuss their strategy for moving forward and what they believe is needed to strengthen Democratic influence in the state. Meanwhile, Governor Brian Kemp has successfully pushed his 'tort reform' measure through the state Senate, but now it faces a new battle in the House. We'll break down whether the legal overhaul will survive the session and what it could mean for businesses and consumers in Georgia. Plus, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens prepares to deliver his final State of the City address of his first term. We'll preview his key priorities and how they could shape his reelection bid. And a renewed effort to honor Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is underway. Georgia Republicans are pushing to erect a statue in his honor, but they've adjusted their original plan to place it on the capitol grounds. We'll discuss the latest on this effort and the political debate surrounding it. Have a question or comment for the show? Call the 24-hour Politically Georgia Podcast Hotline at 770-810-5297.

MAGA may not care that their heroes, Donald Trump and Elon Musk, keep getting caught in lies, but for the sake of history, the rest of us will just have to keep chronicling it, anyway.The latest: claims that 150+ year old people are getting Social Security checks; well, that the Social Security Administration (SSA) is sending check to people born that long ago (and longer) who are obviously not alive. I mean, someone produced a table and put it on a meme so to MAGA, it must be true, yeah?Well, no. I mean, it's not that there aren't some instances of poor management in the SSA, but not at the level DOGE & Trump+Musk insist. --------While Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) insist DOGE is doing a "careful scrub" of federal agencies, what's actually happening is key nuclear personnel were fired (erroneously?) and now the Trump administration is scrambling to figure out how to reach those fired people to re-hire them but they closed their federal emails and didn't have updated contact information to reach them. They also did this with USDA experts working to combat bird flu, hoping to re-hire them as well. --------Then there's DOGE claiming they saved $8 billion from an Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) contract, which makes no sense when ICE only has a $9 billion budget altogether. In their own spreadsheet it was actually $8 million, but in a fraudulent move, an "m" becomes a "b" and, well ... there goes at least half of what DOGE claims its saving taxpayers. That said, Elon is now floating someone else's idea that maybe (not really) DOGE will send out $5000 rebate checks to each household (Trump loves signing checks to us, remember). "Sure, Jan."-------Georgia Republicans are floating legislation that would let property owners seek a property tax rebate if the city they're in doesn't "handle" homelessness and panhandling. Their solution is to punish cities (clearly, Atlanta, Athens, Augusta, Columbus, Macon & Savannah - blue dots on the red map) already lacking in the funds to aid the unhoused and poor by taking away more funds. No solution(s) or state assistance offered in the bill; just ... an exacerbating of the problem. If ever there were a Republican that encapsulates modern day conservatism, this is the one.
I've been tough on Georgia Democrats not doing better waging a proper offensive in the war for information over disinformation, but they've gotten way better at it in recent months. Between Sen. Jason Esteves and Sen. Elena Parent, House Rep. Anne Allen Westbrook, the messaging is organic and yet still well-produced - and that's a big pivot from the recent past. And it's more necessary than ever, with Georgia Republicans breathlessly racing to pass a sales tax holiday for gun and gun paraphernalia purchases when there's no appetite for gun safety measures, let alone a school sales tax holiday. ---------------Forner Trump chief of staff (the one responsible for the pandemic response unit being dismantled) John Bolton made the rounds late last week to sound the alarm bells on his former boss' complete capitulation (he uses the term 'surrender') to Vladimir Putin's demands re: Ukraine. "The Art Of the Deal," though, right? ---------------Friday morning saw the rollout of draconian federal workforce cuts - notably at the Centers for Disease Control under new HHS Secretary (a buffoon, per classmate Lawrence O'Donnell) Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Now, looms the threats of education cuts - if not the entire department going away - with its funds disproportionately benefitting states Trump won in 2024. A recent CNN story in Kentucky found a few "trees for chainsaws" voters at a rural Kentucky school and district giving us their insights. This is the "found out" portion of their plight. What's ironic is, Elon Musk recently labeled a large portion of Americans as "parasites," which means a lot of MAGA voters, themselves, are "parasites" to their billionaire cult hero. ---------------The latest "cartoonishly Trumpy" bootlick? Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA) filing a bill to buy Greenland and rename it "Red, White and Blue-land." I sh*t you not. ---------------The last of my "trees for chainsaws" convos centers around heavily-Latino Reading, PA, where a 16% surge in Trump support in 2024 led to a lot "wait; what?" sentiment from citizens now along with hints for Democrats to swing the pendulum back in the near future.
A bill banning transgender athletes from participating in women's sports has become a top priority for Georgia Republicans this legislative session. On today's episode of Politically Georgia, hosts Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell speak with State Senator Greg Dolezal about the bill's focus, its potential impact and what's next for the legislation. Meanwhile, the Trump administration's decision to slash billions from the National Institutes of Health has sent shockwaves through the medical community. We explore how these cuts will affect life-saving research at Emory, UGA, and Georgia Tech, and what it means for the future of critical medical trials. Plus, a new Democratic name is considering a run for Georgia governor in 2026, while two Republican contenders are already building massive war chests for the race. Finally, at last week's Politically Georgia On the Road event in Washington, D.C., Tia sat down with Dr. Keneshia Grant from Howard University and Dr. Minkah Makalani from Johns Hopkins University. They explored the decline of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in Georgia and discussed whether there's potential for a reversal amid shifting political priorities.

Sometimes when I launch into a topic I have no idea where the stream of consciousness is going to take me, but damned if this isn't a good one, y'all, if I do say so myself. Georgia Republicans want to make Georgia a "closed primary" state, and that's (spoiler alert) bad for democracy. If Republicans are for something, when it comes to elections, you can be sure it's "bad for democracy." Now, listen, fellow Democrats ... we have to accept that our issues in 2016 exposed that we weren't exactly "pro-democracy" or all about "open primaries" ourselves, either, so take your medicine when I discuss that and how it correlates with the current conversation. A majority of Americans (58%) seek a complete overhaul of governance, and while they're getting one, it's not the one they wanted. At least 53% oppose Elon Musk's involvement. Doesn't that mean the left's ideas have a better shot with voters, if given the choice? Speaking of Bernie Sanders, he and just ten other Democratic Senators have managed to oppose every Trump Cabinet appointment (save for Marco Rubio) - netting a meager "10%" Thune score (John Thune, Senate Majority Leader). We're starting to see evidence of the Democatic party bowing up - and with DOGE's incursion into the US Treasury, a rally yesterday featured Rep. Jasmine Crockett and Rep. Jamie Raskin, among others, speaking of solidarity and action. We'll see ... Meanwhile just a week after my guest, Professor Anthony "Tony" Lemieux noted that Trump's J6 pardons mean 'if you do things in service of Donald Trump, you will be ... protected from the ramifications from it." That's going to be tested in a South Carolina case where a white guy has been charged with kidnapping, larceny and assault & battery, along with impersonating a law enforcement officer after a disturbing video surfaced showing him harassing a Spanish-speaking man in a truck, taking keys from the ignition and dangling them in the driver's face while insinuating he'd be deported "back to Mexico." Expect more acts like this, though, with Republican lawmakers eager to put bounties out for citizens to be encouraged to "hunt" for. This is how Germany lurched towards Nazism in the 1930s. Literally.

Gerrymandering Georgia's map "played out just like Georgia Republicans intended" - as the Atlanta Journal Constitution deftly points out. The term isn't a sexy one, but as much as American voters hate government and "Congress" in particular, when can we have a discussion on eliminating what makes them so unpopular? Pete Hegseth is Donald Trump's pick for defense secretary, much to the shock to this inside the Pentagon, Congress and in the retired ranks. That hasn't stopped some Trumpers from trying to compare his lack of qualifications to that of Pete Buttigeig. Wait'll you hear how one conservative pundit self-owned on that comparison, though. Trump's also openly calling for r̶e̶p̶a̶r̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶s̶ restitution for "victims" of DEI initiatives at colleges and universities. On to discuss this and the mood of the black electorate after the 2024 election is Dante King, author of "The 400-Year Holocaust," and producer of the forthcoming docuseries "Diagnosing Whitensss and Anti-Blackness."
The AJC's Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy and Bill Nigut analyze Harris's defeat, Georgia's GOP strategy, and Democratic challenges Summary: One week after Election Day, the political landscape in Georgia is shifting, with both parties assessing their next moves.

This past Monday, our favorite historian Heather Cox Richardson joined Red Wine & Blue for a virtual event. We were hoping to hear her insight into how this election fits into the broader story of American history, and what we might expect over the next two weeks.But if we're being honest, what we really wanted was for Heather to tell us that it was all going to be okay.And of course she couldn't tell us that with certainty. She's a historian, not a soothsayer. But she did offer some words of hope.Our own podcast co-host Rep. Jasmine Clark also joined the call, and she talked about Georgia Republicans' efforts to undermine voting in her state. During the pandemic, Georgia began offering ballot drop boxes, which were extremely popular and widely used. But despite that — or really, because of that—Republicans changed the rules and now most of the drop boxes are no longer available.That could be a disheartening story about voter disenfranchisement, but Heather encouraged us to look at it a different way. If extremist policies were popular, why would they take away drop boxes? If most Americans supported Project 2025, why are they trying so hard to keep us from voting?It's because we're the majority. Most Americans want to elect common sense candidates up and down the ballot. And we're not letting the suppression keep us from voting. In Georgia, and many states across the country, voter turnout numbers are breaking records.We have the power. We just have to use it.For a transcript of this episode, please email theswppod@redwine.blue. You can learn more about us at www.redwine.blue or follow us on social media!

On Tuesday night, with three weeks to go until Election Day, Donald Trump was in Georgia.In 2020, he lost the state by around 12,000 votes, and Georgia became central to his claims that the election had been stolen. After his defeat, he went after Republican state officials and voting machines.At his rally on Tuesday, he was doing something different. He was encouraging people to vote early, to participate in a system his party had previously questioned.The plan was to make the results “too big to rig” — just one part of the Republican strategy to make sure last time doesn't repeat itself.On today's show, we take a closer look at the Trump ground game in Georgia and explore why Georgia Republicans are confident that 2024 won't be like 2020.

While Harrison Butker's misogynistic, anti-gay commencement address is still fresh in our minds, it's noteworthy (as Page Six noted) that his mother is a highly-respected and accomplished Emory physicist, and not a homemaker. The first presidential debate is set - and to be held in Atlanta at CNN. Who needs a whole messy convention, anyway, right? Jay Bookman (wisely) asked: "Why can governors appoint justices based on their ideology, but voters can't?" Georgia Republicans are pushing for a Hank Aaron statue in Statuary Hall. They couldn't agree on John Lewis, but Aaron, they're all for. Problem is, neither Aaron nor Lewis are from Georgia, originally. Is that an issue? Lastly, before POTUS swoops into town Sunday to give the Morehouse commencement, he spent time with "Big Tigger" on V-103. Also, Morehouse' president was on NPR telling us how he'd shut the whole thing down if necessary.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene says Georgia State Republicans need to enforce long passed ‘sanctuary city' laws in their own state stop pointing the finger at the Biden administration. “We could revisit every single American murder by an illegal alien, whether it's an actual murder, or whether they're killed in a car accident, whether they're killed by an illegal alien drinking and driving or doing drugs, whatever it is, or trafficking illegals across the state border that killed two of my constituents last year, every single time it happened, it shouldn't have happened. It was an it was avoidable. And you know, here in Georgia, I've gotten really tired of watching my Georgia Republicans here and in our state, pointing the finger at the Biden administration. When in the state of Georgia, we have a Republican governor, we have a Republican state legislator, and we have a Republican attorney general. And the fact that they passed a law years ago that we do not have sanctuary cities here in the state of Georgia. But yet at the same time, these same Republicans have turned their head and ignored the fact that Democrat-run cities like Athens and the city of Atlanta, do harbor illegal aliens, they choose to not prosecute them,” said the Georgia Congresswoman.

Prosecutions are never supposed to be criminal. For two centuries, America largely avoided Third World political persecutions, but that norm has been obliterated in the left's drive to Get Trump. Missouri AG candidate and Trump legal team member Will Scharf explains the ramifications of the coordinated Biden-led courtroom offensive against Trump, and also explains why presidential immunity ought to protect Trump from the wave of indictments against him. Then, Georgia GOP chief Josh McKoon explains how Georgia Republicans can intervene to stop Fani Willis's machinations — if they can develop the backbone needed to try. Finally, Charlie concludes with a major announcement in his push to fix the GOP.

A white gunman shot and killed three Black people in a racist attack at a Dollar General store on Saturday in Jacksonville, Florida. The attack is the latest incidence of racist gun violence perpetrated by a young, white gunman in the United States, and it is being investigated as a hate crime.Georgia Republicans have expedited the passing of a new state law that would allow the legislature to remove local prosecutors — particularly Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who recently indicted Donald Trump. This is the GOP's latest attempt to remove prosecutorial power from DAs across the country.And in headlines: Russian officials finally confirmed that Yevgeny Prigozhin died in a plane crash outside of Moscow, at least seven people were shot and killed just outside of Haiti's capital, and members of the United Auto Workers union overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike.Show Notes:What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastCrooked Coffee is officially here.

Georgia Republicans have an obvious step they can take to halt the lawfare against their party and their movement: Defund Fani Willis's office and her sinister partisan targeting of Donald Trump and his allies. So why aren't they taking that step by calling a special session to take action? Georgia state senator Colton Moore joins to discuss his struggle to drag his state's GOP in a positive direction. Plus, Trump attorney Alina Habba tells the tale of what happened on Thursday, and lays out Fani Willis's plan to not just send Trump to prison, but to sabotage his campaign for 2024.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Why haven't Georgia Republicans already shut down Fani Willis's politically driven persecution of Donald Trump and his allies? Why didn't they shut it down months ago? Georgia state senator Clint Dixon joins Charlie to take a stand against do-nothing "Ribbon-Cutting Republicans" describe the odds of finally moving the state party to action. Plus, what will be more important on Wednesday night? The overcrowded GOP debate — or Donald Trump's decision to skip it?
