A member of the Democratic Party, he served from 1963 to 1967 in the Georgia State Senate and from 1971 to 1975 as the 76th governor of Georgia. Carter was the longest-lived president in U. S. history and the first to live to 100 years of age.Born and raised in Plains, Georgia, Carter graduated from the U. S. Naval Academy in 1946 and joined the U. S. Navy's submarine service. He returned home after his military service and revived his family's peanut-growing business. Opposing racial segregation, Carter supported the growing civil rights movement, and became an activist within the Democratic Party. He served in the Georgia State Senate from 1963 to 1967 and then as Governor of Georgia from 1971 to 1975. As a dark-horse candidate not well known outside Georgia, Carter won the Democratic nomination and narrowly defeated the incumbent president, Gerald Ford of the Republican Party, in the 1976 presidential election.Carter pardoned all Vietnam War draft evaders on his second day in office. He created a national energy policy that included conservation, price control, and new technology. Carter successfully pursued the Camp David Accords, the Panama Canal Treaties, and the second round of Strategic Arms Limitation Talks. He also confronted stagflation. His administration established the U. S. Department of Energy and the Department of Education. He was the only president to serve a full term without appointing a justice to the Supreme Court. The end of his presidency was marked by the Iran hostage crisis, an energy crisis, the Three Mile Island accident, the Nicaraguan Revolution, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. In response to the invasion, Carter escalated the Cold War by ending détente, imposing a grain embargo against the Soviets, enunciating the Carter Doctrine, and leading the multinational boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. Carter defeated challenger Ted Kennedy in the 1980 Democratic Party presidential primaries but lost the general election in a landslide to Ronald Reagan, the Republican nominee.After leaving the presidency, Carter established the Carter Center to promote and expand human rights; in 2002, he received a Nobel Peace Prize for his work in relation to it. He traveled extensively to conduct peace negotiations, monitor elections, and further the eradication of infectious diseases. Carter was a key figure in the nonprofit housing organization Habitat for Humanity. He has also written numerous books, ranging from political memoirs to poetry, while continuing to comment on global affairs, including two books on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Polls of historians and political scientists generally rank Carter as a below-average president. Scholars and the public more favorably view his post-presidency, which was the longest in U. S. history.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 07:17 UTC on Monday, 30 December 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Jimmy Carter on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Amy.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast. On today's episode, Sen. Shawn Still joins us to help us pay our respects to Bruce Thompson, Georgia's Labor Commissioner, who passed away on November 24th at the age of 59. Known for his tireless dedication to public service, Thompson's career was marked by a passion for empowering Georgians through innovative labor policies and economic opportunity. Thompson built a legacy as a successful entrepreneur and small business owner, excelling in the insurance and financial services industries. His business acumen laid the foundation for his public service, as he sought to improve the lives of Georgia's workers and employers alike. Thompson was first elected to the Georgia State Senate in 2013, representing the 14th District, where he served for a decade before being elected Labor Commissioner in 2022. During his tenure, he championed efforts to modernize the Georgia Department of Labor, streamline unemployment services, and promote workforce training programs to address the evolving needs of the state's economy. Beyond his professional achievements, Thompson was a devoted family man and community leader, deeply involved in civic and charitable initiatives. He is survived by his wife, Becky, his children, Faith and Max, his adopted father, Dr. Austin Flint, his brother, Jason Sluggett, and his sister, Tonya Bruce. His legacy of service, innovation, and compassion will long be remembered by those whose lives he touched.

Haley's contributors move to Trump, but she does not live up to her promise to support the winner of the primary process.   She's done!   We see Trump winning with a ‘ball and chain' trying to slow him down.  Congrats to Mitch McConnell for stepping up and standing by his word that if Trump wins the primaries, that he would support Trump… and he did!  Meanwhile the Georgia State Senate is looking into alleged ethics violations by D.A. Fani Willis.  The Democrat hate for Donald Trump is unhealthy and raises suspicion as to why they are going so far to remove him as a potential candidate.  Something says that maybe the ‘DEMS' have several issues they do not want revealed which would happen if Trump is re-elected.   Hummmm.  Enjoy.  A New & Improved Donald Trump Returning?Gene Valentino on TNT State of the NationORIGINAL MEDIA SOURCE(S):Originally Recorded on March 6, 2024America Beyond the Noise: Season 5, Episode 516 Join the Conversation: https://GeneValentino.com WMXI Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981 More WMXI Interviews: https://genevalentino.com/wmxi-interviews/ More GrassRoots TruthCast Episodes: https://genevalentino.com/grassroots-truthcast-with-gene-valentino/ More Broadcasts with Gene as the Guest: https://genevalentino.com/america-beyond-the-noise/ More About Gene Valentino: https://genevalentino.com/about-gene-valentino/

Jonathan Alter, journalist and author of “His Very Best: Jimmy Carter, A Life,” talks with Stewart McLaurin, president of the White House Historical Association, about the remarkable journey of President Jimmy Carter from peanut farmer to Nobel Peace Prize recipient. Filmed at the First Baptist Church of the City of Washington, D.C., the church home of the Carters while they lived in the White House, Stewart and Jonathan met with Rev. Julie Pennington-Russell, who showed them rare memorabilia, including the Carter family's original membership cards, where Amy received baptism, and where the President taught adult Sunday school more than a dozen times during his presidency. Born in Plains, Georgia on October 1, 1924, President Carter grew up without running water or electricity. Eager to leave home, he graduated from the United States Naval Academy, married, and served in the U.S. Navy. He and his young wife and kids returned to Plains to help save the family farm after his father passed away. From there, he took an interest in politics, working his way up from county boards to the Georgia State Senate to the Governor's Mansion. Then he and Mrs. Carter launched into national politics, winning the 1976 election and moving to Washington, D.C. with their youngest child and only daughter, Amy. Known for a life of faith and service, the 39th President of the United States became the longest-lived president and half of the longest-married presidential couple in U.S. history. Stewart and Jonathan talk about the Carters' time in the White House and the decades-long post-presidency they spent creating The Carter Center, which works to alleviate human suffering around the world, and among many other things, building homes with Habitat for Humanity, and raising awareness about mental health and caregiving. The Official 2024 White House Christmas Ornament features a unique design inspired by the life and presidency of Jimmy Carter. You can purchase an ornament at this link.

The suspect, described as a Black female with dark hair, was captured on Walmart surveillance cameras using the victims' cards. The incident was initially thought to involve staff members, but investigators discovered that the suspect, not employed by Celebration Village, entered the facility wearing scrubs similar to those worn by staff.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 26: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:43) SPECIAL COMMENT: In an April deposition in the New York Civil Fraud case, Trump told the Attorney General's office that he wasn't running his company because he was too busy saving the world from nuclear holocaust and saving millions of lives because he was the only one to think of DEALING with North Korea. You're WELCOME LOSERS. This underscores a part of Trump's insanity that it sometimes seems like we have gotten used to: he really DOES think he's the first person to ever think of something, or to DO something, that everybody else in his position did as long ago as 1946. I never hear him say something like this – “Only I saved millions of lives because only I dealt with North Korea” without thinking of what the idiot director Roger DeBris in Mel Brooks' movie “The Producers” says about the play itself – quote – “I never knew that the ‘THIRD REICH' meant Germany! I mean it's just DRENCHED with historical goodies like that.” That's Trump. Still, Trump didn't save Peter Navarro, who goes to trial – but only after failing to grab a paper “TRUMP LOST” sign held an inch over his head. And he didn't save Rudy Giuliani, who goes to trial for slandering Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman and hours later went on radio and slandered Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman AGAIN. And he didn't save Kevin McCarthy who will now have to start an impeachment without holding a vote – which he once violently criticized – or hold the vote and LOSE IT. The knives are out for Fani Willis. The Georgia State Senate Majority Leader now threatens her with reprimands, sanctions, hearings, defunding and removal. His name is Gooch and he's from Lumpkin County. But the Georgia State HOUSE Speaker, Jon Burns, another Republican, says trying to defund Willis violates separation of powers. With no hyperbole: I worry for Speaker Burns' safety. And the podcast celebrates a big milestone with a big thank you to you: the August audience was 3,000,000! B-Block (21:44) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: McConnell freezes again. Nice of his staffers to leave him out there and ask reporters to yell at him. And the brewing story about how if Mitch goes, the Democratic Kentucky governor may defy a new law and appoint a Democrat in his place. Plus the Proud Boys sentencings that weren't. (25:18) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Anti-pickleball millionaire Holly Peterson has an unexpected feature in her home: her own pickleball court. The guy who claimed he killed Bin Laden got arrested and replied by claiming he killed bin Laden. And why even in these days of loose ethics in cable news, MSNBC must fire primetime anchor Stephanie Ruhle. C-Block (32:00) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Poor puppy Thomas: attacked, left to die on the train tracks, and still wagging as humans treat him. (33:20) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: It's the 26th anniversary of the death of Princess Diana, which was also the day cable news jumped the shark and the shark was in the Rubicon.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Senator Nabilah Islam from Georgia State joins us today to discuss why she dove into politics. As she profoundly states, “If you're not at the table, you're on the menu,” and is both the youngest member of the Georgia State Senate as well as the first Muslim women in this important governing body. As a minority community in America (just 3%!) Muslim Americans literally cannot afford to ignore gun control in America like yesterday. @everytownusa is doing the research the government is NOT ALLOWED to do because of the powerful gun lobbies that don't want Americans to have the real numbers about gun violence in America. As you've seen on our socials, guns are the number #1 killer of American kids under 18 in this nation, and 59% of Americans have been affected by gun violence in this country. These are deplorable numbers and as voters and taxpayers (over 81% of Muslim American are citizens in this nation; source: Pew Research Center) we say, “NOT WITH MY MONEY!”Learn what permitless carry is, and what it's being sold as by state legislatures and governors signing executive orders to bring guns into hands without background checks, blocking red flag laws, and worse. You know, common sense gun laws?Most importantly, find out how bills that the majority of Americans don't want get passed. Say, what?!?!?!

https://juryfile.com/2022/08/05/georgia-2/ The interim director of the Georgia State Senate, Alexander Azarian, 52, is accused of exploiting minor children through private messages since 2007. Azarian has been charged with two felony counts of child pornography. Azarian admitted to owning the email address that was associated with the criminal exploitation of minors before requested to speak to legal counsel. Yahoo provided The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children with the information the email address was sending and receiving child sexual abuse material. On July 28, 2022, a search of Azarian's residence provided evidence of child sexual abuse material on Azarian's phone. The evidence showed that Azarian received images of children performing sexual activity and he also shared those images with another individual. Recent news articles referenced Azarian as “A man who works with lawmakers in the Georgia State Senate,” or “Former interim director of the Georgia State Senate.” However, that portrays a different image of Azarian's employment status at the time of his arrest. Just last week, the Georgia State Senate was informed of Azarian's arrest and a new interim director was named.

On this episode, we’re introducing the first of our new ongoing series on mothers in politics. Today we’re talking to Dr. Michelle Au, the author and anesthesiologist who was just elected to Georgia’s state senate. She’s telling us how a busy mom with no prior political experience became a state senator, what her goals are for her time in office, and why other moms should consider throwing their hats in the ring.Dr. Michelle Au, MD, MPH is an anesthesiologist at Emory-St. Joseph’s Hospital in Atlanta, GA. She received her MD from Columbia University and completed her residency training there in 2008. A decade later, she returned to Columbia to study at the Mailman School of Public Health, focusing on healthcare management and policy, and graduated with a Masters of Public Health in 2019. During her third year of medical school, Dr. Au started penning the “Scutmonkey” comic series, inspired by the absurdity of medical training. During her final year of residency training, Dr. Au wrote a medical memoir entitled This Won’t Hurt a Bit (And Other White Lies): My Education in Medicine and Motherhood, which was published by Grand Central Publishing in 2011. She has been a featured writer for The Boston Globe, The Atlantic, Slate, Medium, KevinMD, and Psychology Today. In November 2020, she was elected to the Georgia State Senate for District 48, running on a platform on improving access to care and health outcomes in Georgia.

A senior fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, attorney, and energy policy expert Jacki Deason hosts The Jacki Daily Show. She most recently garnered attention when she presented evidence of election illegalities to the Georgia State Senate regarding the cases of ballots under a table at the State Farm Arena.

Rush Limbaugh was back at the golden microphone on Friday having been out the earlier part of the week and came back swinging to make the case of voter fraud that kept Trump from victory.. Rush spoke about Rudy Giuliani’s Georgia appearance at the Georgia State Senate hearing and how there were “suitcases of ballots hidden under a table” which were attended to after asking poll watchers and many other workers to leave.. Rush said “poll watchers are required by law to be there”.. wrong.. there’s no requirement there but someone from the State has to be there.. and there was. Rush then claimed state legislators in Georgia would have to be appointed to vote for Trump if (yes, another) recount wasn’t done but a State Senator from Georgia had this to say..

You'll hear how it was collected from oral tradition in Georgia and North Carolina in the 1920s, and hear it become the first State Historical Song of Georgia on the floor of the Georgia State Senate. You'll find out how the words "come by here," sung in a regional dialect, came to be spelled "Kumbaya" around the world.

And you'll enjoy performances and commentary from Grammy-winning recording artists, expert archivists, and self-described library nerds.
