Latvia has cancelled the licence of Russia's last independent media channel TV Rain only five months after it began broadcasting in exile, accusing the channel of showing support for Russia's war in Ukraine. In response, TV Rain, or Dozhd, has called the decision "unfair and absurd". Emily Tamkin and Katie Stallard in Washington DC are joined by Ido Vock in Berlin to discuss TV Rain's turbulent history and why Latvia has branded it a threat to national security, the importance of independent Russian media, and the struggle for Russian political exiles to understand their place in the conflict. Elsewhere, the Democrat Raphael Warnock has beaten the Republican Herschel Walker in Georgia's run-off election to retain his place in the Senate. This is the first time since 1934 that the president's party has defended every incumbent Senate seat. The team discuss the key takeaways from Warnock's victory, the series of scandals that have plagued Walker's career, and if Warnock, a star on the rise, has presidential ambitions.

Georgia's U.S. Senate runoff has been called in favor of incumbent Democrat Rep. Raphael Warnock. Warnock defeated Republican Herschel Walker. Rahul Bali of WABE joins us. Then, after gunfire damaged two electrical substations in Moore County last week, some North Carolina residents are still without power. North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper joins us to give an update on the power grid and what's to come. And, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear a case Wednesday that could have major implications in elections. At the center of the case is a gerrymandered map that was drawn in 2020 by the Republican-controlled state legislature. Steve Harrison, politics and government reporter for WFAE, joins us.

CBS News projects Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock will keep his seat in Georgia after a hard-fought race against Republican Herschel Walker. Reverend Warnock invoked his faith during a victory speech in Atlanta last night. Police in Germany arrested at least 25 people tied to an alleged right-wing plot to overthrow the government. The targeted group's ideology is similar to that of far-right groups in the U.S. The company that former President Donald Trump has run for decades has been convicted of breaking the law. A jury found The Trump Organization guilty on 17 counts, including conspiracy and tax fraud, after a dramatic trial in New York. Trump himself wasn't charged and denies wrongdoing, but prosecutors alleged he signed off on years of criminal activity, including a variety of perks provided off the books. The Supreme Court hears arguments this morning in a high-stakes case on voting laws. Many analysts say the outcome could potentially quote, "damage American Democracy." tens of thousands of people still don't have power for a 4th straight day in Moore County, North Carolina , as officials investigate Saturday's gunfire attack on electrical substations. The local utility says everyone should have their lights on by tonight. China's government has made a radical shift this morning, officially moving away from its strict zero-COVID policies. The move appears to be in response to widespread protests in recent weeks, including some of the boldest demonstrations in that country in decades.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by offering his analysis on the runoff election in Georgia that saw Republican Herschel Walker fall to Democrat Raphael Warnock, explaining why he believes Republicans lost the very crucial election. Dom ties this to local politics, asking if last night had echoes of the Oz/Fetterman campaign and vote, asking whether the candidate or the Party is at fault for the loss. Then, Giordano plays back reaction from the vote, telling about Stephen Colbert's comment that ‘Senate isn't a place where people with football brain injuries go to work,' forgetting questions of cognition raised about both Joe Biden and John Fetterman. Also, Giordano discusses how the Republican Party needs to move forward, playing back and agreeing with a comment made by Newt Gingrich that Republicans must embrace mail-in voting rather than fight against it if they want to win in the future. Then, Dom delves into an interview provided by Republican contender to Larry Krasner, Chuck Peruto, on yesterday's Dan Abrams show on NewsNation. In the interview, Peruto claims that there's no way Krasner gets impeached, calling the effort political theater and unfair to Philadelphia voters, which Dom takes issue with. Then, Dom welcomes in Matt Sharp, Senior Counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, the law firm representing Lorie Smith, owner of 303 Creative, whose case is sifting through the United States Supreme Court. Smith wants to create websites for weddings, but because of her faith, has an objection about same-sex marriage, and would like to be able to operate without the requirement to serve same-sex individuals in light of her moral and religious objections. Matt takes us inside the Supreme Court hearing, first discussing the hypotheticals raised by Justices, then telling where he expects the case to go. (Photo by Megan Varner/Getty Images)

Democratic senator Raphael Warnock has won a full term in the US Senate against Republican Herschel Walker. The runoff was needed as neither candidate had the required 50 percent of votes in the midterm election, but Raphael Warnock's win gives the Democrats an outright Senate majority. US Correspondent Dan Mitchinson says that Herschel Walker's loss represents another nail in Donald Trump's coffin, as Herschel Walker's image was tied to being a Trump endorsed politician.

The Senate votes to block a national strike by rail workers, preventing what the president says would have been a "christmas catastrophe." Senator Raphael Warnock is getting some prominent help, in trying to fend off a challenge from Republican Herschel Walker.

The 117th Congress is coming to a close at the end of this year and, now that most of the midterm races have been called and partisan control of both chambers decided, we have a pretty good idea of what the dynamics will be in the new 118th. Bloomberg Government energy reporter Kellie Lunney joins this episode of Parts Per Billion, our environmental policy podcast, to talk about what to expect on Capitol Hill for the next two years. For one, she says, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W. Va.) will maintain considerable influence over the chamber as his party's surprising performance in the midterms means he'll continue to lead the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Even if Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) wins the December runoff against Republican Herschel Walker and becomes the Senate's 51st Democrat, Manchin could still jam things up for his party on any number of issues. Lunney also talks about what could happen during the lame duck session currently under way, and specifically about whether any environmental provisions will hitch a ride on two huge pieces of must-pass legislation.

Georgians have less than four weeks before their next election since neither Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock or his challenger Republican Herschel Walker earned 50% or more of the vote, which under state law forces a runoff election.

The polls have closed on the midterm elections, but with many races left undecided, it's still unclear which party will lead the next Congress. Though there was no "Red Wave" as some prognosticators predicted, Republicans appear to be closing in on a narrow majority in the House. In the Senate, the balance of power remains up in the air as the Nevada and Arizona races remain uncalled, and the Georgia contest between Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker heads toward a December runoff. On this episode of our weekly podcast, Talking Tax, Bloomberg Tax reporters Chris Cioffi, Naomi Jagoda, and Samantha Handler preview what kind of oversight a House Republican majority may conduct and who's poised to take over for retiring ranking member Kevin Brady (R-Texas).

With the US midterm elections for the control of Congress fast approaching, voters in the state of Georgia face important and highly anticipated elections this November. Georgia voters will decide the marquee Senate race between the incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock and Trump-endorsed newcomer Republican Herschel Walker in a race that may well determine which party controls the Senate. At the same time, Georgia also has a major gubernatorial race, with Republican incumbent Governor Brian Kemp, who spurned Trump's efforts to overturn Joe Biden's victory in Georgia in November 2020, and Democratic superstar Stacey Abrams in the race. With important election integrity issues at stake, races such as these are more consequential than ever. To discuss these, the United States Studies Centre hosted a webinar featuring Alan Abramowitz, The Alben Barkley Emeritus Professor of Political Science at Emory University in Atlanta Georgia in conversation with USSC Non-Resident Senior Fellow, Bruce Wolpe and Research Associate, Victoria Cooper.

Georgia Senate candidates Herschel Walker and Sen.
