Last week, Finance Minister, Nicola Willis, announced her ‘growth' Budget for 2025. In the Budget, multiple initiatives received a boost in funding.  Operational funding and capital funding for Māori education received a $54 million boost and $50 million boost respectively for Māori learner success, with a $14 million injection for Māori wardens, Pacific wardens, and the Māori women's welfare league. However, a variety of Māori initiatives have faced substantial cuts. The Māori Development Fund has had $20 million cut over four years, $32.5 million has been cut from Māori housing initiatives, and $375.5 million cut to the Kāhui Ako programme. Labour's Māori Development spokesperson, Willie Jackson, claims that overall, in Budget 2025, Māori initiatives are seeing cuts of roughly $750 million. For our weekly catchup, News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to Te Pāti Māori's Takutai Kemp about Budget 2025 and it's impacts on Māori initiatives. They also spoke about the debate on the potential suspension of Te Pāti Māori co-leaders, Rawiri Waititi, and Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and MP Hana Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, being pushed back prior to the Budget debate.  As well as this, notably, during the Budget debate itself, both Waititi and Ngarewa-Packer were absent.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville A Lawrenceville home caught fire early Wednesday after a lightning strike, displacing a family of 11 and injuring a firefighter. Fire crews arrived at 2:08 a.m. to find flames in the attic. While battling the blaze, the roof collapsed, injuring a firefighter who was treated and released for non-life-threatening injuries. The family safely evacuated after spotting the fire, and the Red Cross is assisting them. Firefighters controlled the blaze by 2:30 a.m., using multiple units to prevent further damage. Officials stress the importance of fire escape plans and offer community education resources for safety. STORY 2: Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative The Gwinnett County Police Department launched a summer safety initiative on May 20 to boost officer visibility, reduce crime, and enhance community engagement. Key efforts include increased patrols in high-traffic areas like malls and parks, daily crime suppression operations, and visible cruise lights on patrol cars. A major focus is community engagement through weekly Chief’s Walks, where residents can meet police leaders, share feedback, and build trust. The initiative aims to ensure a safe, proactive summer while fostering stronger relationships between officers and the community. STORY 3: Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Gwinnett County celebrated the reopening of an expanded homeless outreach center in Norcross, operated by the Latin American Association (LAA) and HTS. Originally opened in 2021 but closed due to flood damage, the center now offers comprehensive services, including a youth drop-in center, a shelter for young mothers, food, clothing, and hygiene facilities. Staff, many with lived homelessness experience, provide case management, housing navigation, and life skills training.

We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Kemp touts proposed Georgia Power rate freeze Georgia Power's plan to freeze rates for three years, announced this week, was praised by Gov. Brian Kemp as beneficial for customers and Georgia's economic growth. The agreement, pending Public Service Commission (PSC) approval, cancels a planned rate case and follows three rate hikes in recent years due to rising electricity demand. Critics argue the freeze won't prevent increases tied to fuel and hurricane recovery costs, which the PSC will address next year. Kemp dismissed claims of political timing, emphasizing the freeze's role in attracting businesses. A public hearing is set for June 26, with a vote on July 1. STORY 5: Philadelphia Winn Chapter DAR awards Good Citizens and American History Essay Contest Winners Nine Gwinnett County high school students were honored by the Philadelphia Winn Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) for their citizenship and writing skills.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Georgia cracks down on fentanyl trafficking, with new sentencing law Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed the Fentanyl Eradication and Removal Act, imposing stricter penalties for fentanyl trafficking. The legislation mandates a minimum five-year sentence for trafficking as little as four grams. Fentanyl, 100 times more potent than morphine, is often found laced in drugs like Adderall and Xanax, posing lethal risks, especially to teenagers. Senator Russ Goodman, who introduced the bill, emphasized its urgency, sharing personal stories of lives lost to fentanyl in his community. Kemp signed the bill alongside 19 others, aiming to combat the drug's devastating impact. STORY 2: Trip Elementary teacher fired, arrested for inappropriate contact with students Brandon Hill, a former Trip Elementary School teacher, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor simple battery and felony first-degree cruelty to children for allegedly inappropriate conduct with students in March. Hill, 29, was removed from the classroom immediately after the allegations surfaced and is no longer employed by Gwinnett County Public Schools. Investigations by police, child services, and the district are ongoing, with details of the incidents redacted or withheld. Hill was released on a $6,000 bond with conditions prohibiting contact with students.

Fair Fight, a voting rights group, argued the challenges were frivolous and aimed to intimidate Black voters ahead of key Senate runoffs. True the Vote denied intent to intimidate, citing no direct voter contact. While a lower court ruled in True the Vote's favor in 2024, the judges questioned the group's motives, noting none of the challenges succeeded and criticizing their "reckless" methods. A decision is pending. STORY 5: Former Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond discusses his book with Rotary Club of Gwinnett Michael Thurmond, former Georgia legislator and labor commissioner, spoke at the Gwinnett County Rotary Club about his book, *James Oglethorpe, Father of Georgia: A Founder’s Journey from Slave Trader to Abolitionist*. The book, 30 years in the making, explores Oglethorpe’s transformation from a slave trader to an abolitionist and his role as the first white man in North America to oppose slavery. Thurmond’s journey began in 1996 during a visit to Oglethorpe’s grave in England, where a plaque described him as “the friend of the oppressed negro.” The book highlights Oglethorpe’s evolution and his impact on history, emphasizing the power of personal change.

Fotografie kan best een eenzaam ding zijn. Jij, je camera, en die muur waar je tegenaan loopt. Maar wat als je die muur gewoon samen omver trapt? In deze aflevering duiken we in de kracht van fotografievriendschappen. Van dat ene appgroepje waarin je eerlijk hoort dat je laatste foto ‘mwah' was, tot dat fotomaatje dat je net dat zetje geeft om tóch die expositie aan te melden. Samen beter worden, samen verder komen.Want eerlijk: je hoeft het echt niet allemaal alleen te doen. Een goede fotografievriend laat je anders kijken. Laat je lachen als je je weer eens vastbijt in technische details. En daagt je uit om je werk naar een hoger niveau te tillen. Niels en Michiel vertellen over onze eigen vriendschap (ja, we geven toe: het is soms ook irritant), maar vooral hoe fijn het is om iemand naast je te hebben die ook snapt waarom je drie uur lang op een straathoek staat te wachten op dat ene moment.

Gwinnett increasing traffic signal contract by more than $13 million Kemp won't run for U.S. Senate in 2026 Lawrenceville changing trash pickup times because of summer heat Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on medication 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 daily and subscribe! 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.

Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch as they cautiously welcome reports that the Iran-backed Houthi rebels will stop attacking ships in the Red Sea. They also dig into GOP concerns over the 2026 Senate map and expose the shocking costs and failures of President Biden's Gaza pier project.First, they react to former President Trump announcing a suspension of U.S. military operations against the Houthis, after the group pledged to cease attacks on ships near Yemen.  Is this the result of overwhelming U.S. force, a concession by the Iranians in hopes of reaching a nuclear deal, both, or something else?Next, they examine growing Republican anxiety about the 2026 U.S. Senate midterms. Top GOP recruits in Georgia and New Hampshire say they will not run and things look a bit shakier than expected for incumbents in three other states. So, are Republicans just overreacting or is there cause for concern?Finally, they vent over reports that 62 U.S. service personnel were injured in various ways while assigned to construct the pier designed to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. Adding insult to those injuries, the pier was only operational for a short time and much of the aid was stolen by terrorists and never given to the people in need.Please visit our great sponsors:This spring, get up to 50% off select plants at Fast Growing Trees with code MARTINI, plus an extra 15% off at checkout on your first purchase!  Visit https://fastgrowingtrees.com/MartiniFuture-proof business operations with NetSuite by Oracle.

Join Jim and Greg for Wednesday's 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss the mounting economic pressure on China from President Trump's new tariffs, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp's decision not to challenge Sen. Jon Ossoff, and explosive findings that the Taliban is making billions selling abandoned U.S. weapons and vehicles to terrorists.First, they welcome reports that Trump's 145 percent tariffs are already hitting China hard—forcing many companies to pull out of the U.S. market, threatening millions of Chinese jobs, and sparking public protests over unpaid wages. But will this lead to any major concessions from the communist leaders in Beijing?Next, they react to Gov. Kemp's announcement that he won't run for the U.S. Senate in 2026. Kemp matched up far better against Ossoff than any other likely Republican candidate. They examine why Kemp decided not to run and what the Senate race will look like without him.Finally, they unload on new findings from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), revealing that the Taliban is making billions by selling the military equipment the U.S. abandoned in Afghanistan to terror groups, including Al Qaeda affiliates.

Brian Kemp is out. No Senate run in 2026, and that shifts the entire field. Kemp was the Republican Party's best shot at flipping the Georgia seat currently held by Jon Ossoff — and he knew it. He didn't just flirt with the idea. He let it hang out there long enough for donors, strategists, and journalists to start treating it as likely. So when he made it official this weekend, it sent shockwaves through the Georgia GOP and national Republicans hoping for a clean, high-profile pickup in a battleground state.Let's be clear: Kemp would've been a problem for Ossoff. He's a two-term governor with a reputation for competency, no Trump baggage, and enough distance from the MAGA wing to appeal to suburban voters. He beat Stacey Abrams twice. He stared down Trump in 2020 and walked away stronger. There are few Republicans who can claim that kind of profile. Without him, the bench gets thin — and fast.Ossoff is already pulling in national dollars, and now he doesn't have to spend the next 12 months preparing for a Kemp-style challenge. That gives him time to build narrative, define the race early, and lock down coalitions that might've been vulnerable in a high-turnout, split-ticket election. Democrats don't have to win Georgia by a landslide — they just need to hold it. And in a cycle that's already looking rough for Republicans in other swing states, the GOP needed Georgia to be easy. It's not.Now the question becomes whether Republicans want to rally around a moderate and play defense, or roll the dice with a firebrand and try to rally the base. Either option carries risk. A moderate might not excite anyone. A MAGA pick might turn the whole race into a referendum on January 6 or Trump loyalty. And the problem with a crowded primary isn't just messaging — it's money. Ossoff gets to hoard his resources while Republicans knife each other in the dark.It's early, but the GOP just lost its best card. And unless something big changes — a surprise retirement, a shocking recruit, a sudden scandal — this race has quietly shifted from “toss-up” to “lean blue.” Not because Ossoff is invincible. But because the Republican bench is looking thin, the calendar is ticking, and Brian Kemp just said, “No thanks.” Heck, if Marjorie Taylor-Greene steps in, it might just be Ossoff +7. And it will not be for lack of news coverage.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:48 - Brian Kemp Not Running for Senate00:06:18 - Interview with Aubrey Sitterson01:14:20 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

It's another chaotic day in the news cycle, and we're breaking it all down. First up: Trump's interview with Kristen Welker, where he served up a fresh batch of lies, deflections, and victimhood, and then cried “unfair” the moment she pushed back with facts. (We've seen this movie before. It never gets better.) Then we head to Georgia, where Governor Brian Kemp just announced he's not running for Senate, potentially clearing the way for a possible run by none other than Marjorie Taylor Greene. Because apparently we're trying to hit that “worst-case scenario.” And finally, we'll cover the latest in the Diddy case, where jury selection has officially begun in what's shaping up to be one of the most high-profile and controversial trials of the year. Politics, ego, and celebrity scandal...welcome to a typical Monday in America.

Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell unpack the latest AJC poll showing a tight race between Kemp and Ossoff in 2026.
