Tune in here to this ​Monday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen! Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by discussing candidates running in the 2026 legislative races across Mecklenburg County. Last Friday at noon marked the deadline for candidates to file for office in North Carolina next year. Jensen then previews key state Senate and House contests in Mecklenburg County, which has historically leaned Democratic. Several state legislative races in the county stand out. One is Senate District 98, where Democrat Beth Helfrich is set to face Republican John Rhodes. Jensen notes the district is unusual, as the seat has alternated between Democratic and Republican control in each of the past four election cycles. Another notable race is Senate District 105, where Republican Tricia Cotham is expected to face Kelly VanHorn, a former Democrat and former teacher who is part of a group of educators changing party affiliation to challenge Republicans. County Commission races are also drawing attention, as no Republicans are running as at-large candidates. Jensen notes that Districts 5 and 6 were drawn in a way that makes it difficult for Republicans to win. He attributes the district boundaries to decisions made by the County Commission, which opted to draw its own maps. Listen here for all of this and more on Breaking With Brett Jensen.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for December 19th Publish Date:  December 19th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, December 19th and Happy Birthday to Al Kaline I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal South Cobb mayors speak on accomplishments, future Jaha Howard wins runoff for Georgia Senate District 35 Cobb County staff trade desk work for Christmas carols Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats As well as Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Now here is Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre BREAK: THE STRAND STORY 1: South Cobb mayors speak on accomplishments, future  Three mayors, three cities, and a lot to reflect on. Austell Mayor Ollie Clemons, Mableton Mayor Michael Owens, and Powder Springs Mayor Al Thurman gathered at the Riverside EpiCenter to talk about 2025 wins and what’s next for 2026 during the State of South Cobb event. Clemons? He’s proud of Austell’s bold move to raise the millage rate for the first time in decades. “It’s about reinvesting in our community,” he said, pointing to plans for downtown revitalization and hiring a city manager—finally. Owens celebrated Mableton’s new departments and leadership team, calling 2025 a year of “building the foundation.” Next year? It’s all about community engagement and growth. Thurman highlighted Powder Springs’ shiny new city hall and parking garage, plus job-creating developments. His focus for 2026? Sustainable growth and leaving a legacy of leadership. STORY 2: Jaha Howard wins runoff for Georgia Senate District 35 Jaha Howard pulled off a narrow win Tuesday night, defeating fellow Democrat Roger Bruce in the runoff for state Senate District 35. Unofficial results show Howard, a dentist and former Cobb school board member, edging out Bruce with 51.9% of the vote to Bruce’s 48.1%. The seat, which covers parts of Cobb and Fulton counties, was left open when Jason Esteves stepped down to run for governor. Howard credited his win to personal outreach—hundreds of phone calls, he said, to build trust. “People want to feel heard,” he said. Bruce’s campaign struggled with name recognition, especially in Cobb. STORY 3: Cobb County staff trade desk work for Christmas carols  Glover Park got a dose of holiday magic Tuesday, thanks to Cobb County’s newest choir, “Cobb County Sonic Sound” (or, as they like to call themselves, “CoCo SoSo”). Led by Dr. Jatunn Gibson, head of the county’s Public Services Agency, the group—decked out in festive sweaters and holiday flair—belted out classics like “Joy to the World” and “White Christmas.” Oh, and they’ve got their own band too, all county employees. Between songs, they performed skits about elves saving Christmas. “It’s all about fun and camaraderie,” said Grace Williams, a choir member. “We’re connecting beyond work—and it’s a blast.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: Villa Rica Wonderland Train STORY 4: Jason Gaines named Mableton Citizen of the Year  Jason Gaines didn’t see it coming. This week, he was named the 2025 Mableton Citizen of the Year at the South Cobb Area Council meeting, and the surprise left him, well, a little speechless. “It just warms my heart,” Gaines said. “To know the work I’ve done is appreciated like this—it’s humbling.” Gaines, who’s the director of planning at Croy Engineering and chairs the Mableton Development Authority Board, was honored by Mayor Michael Owens. “Jason’s been a force,” Owens said. “His expertise and passion have shaped this community at such a critical time.” The guy’s résumé? Stacked. Leadership programs, board memberships—he’s everywhere. STORY 5: Anderson steps down as Walker football coach TJ Anderson pulled off something close to miraculous in 2025. With just 23 players—yes, 23—he guided Walker through a grueling 10-game season. The Wolverines finished 2-8, but they still earned a spot in the Class A-AAA Private state playoffs. Unfortunately, injuries piled up, and the team had to decline the bid. “We had to make the best decision for our kids,” Anderson said, reflecting on the tough call. But that season? It was his last. Anderson announced on X that he’s stepping down as Walker’s head coach after three years. “It’s been a journey,” he wrote, thanking the community and his family. BRAVES: Ha-Seong Kim is staying put in Atlanta—at least for another year. The 30-year-old shortstop signed a one-year, $20 million deal with the Braves on Monday, locking him in as the team’s starter for 2026. Not bad, considering he turned down a $16 million option just last month and walked away with an extra $4 million. Kim joined the Braves late last season, claimed off waivers from Tampa Bay on Sept. 1. He made an immediate impact, hitting .309 with a .372 OBP, three homers, and 12 RBIs in his first 19 games. Sure, he cooled off at the end—1-for-19 in the last five games—but the Braves clearly see his potential. Kim’s journey hasn’t been without bumps. Injuries sidelined him for much of 2025 with the Rays, where he hit just .214 in 24 games. But let’s not forget—this guy won a Gold Glove with the Padres in 2023 and has 84 career stolen bases. The Braves are betting on a bounce-back. And if Kim can channel his San Diego form, he could be a 3-4 WAR player. High hopes, but hey, the talent’s there. I'm Keith Ippolito and that’s your MDJ Sports Minute. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats We’ll have closing comments after this.

Ron walks listeners through a fast-developing national story: the remarkably swift and nearly unanimous congressional vote to release the long-sealed Jeffrey Epstein files. After months of hesitation from Republican leaders, both the House and Senate reversed course and advanced the bill with overwhelming support. Ron explores what led to this sudden change, why observers across the political spectrum are questioning the timing, and what the next steps may look like as the Department of Justice prepares to respond.Ron highlights commentary from comedian Trae Crowder, who articulates the public's skepticism about the pivot, and then examines House Speaker Mike Johnson's evolving explanations for his position. The episode breaks down how internal GOP disagreements, procedural maneuvering, and shifting public pressure turned a stalled issue into a rapid bipartisan movement — and what this could signal for future congressional oversight. Oh, and the Trump White House vows retribution towards Democrats for .... forcing him to do what he campaigned that he'd do?The discussion then turns to an Air Force One exchange in which President Trump directed a dismissive remark toward Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey. Ron uses the moment to examine broader concerns about Trump's tone toward journalists - particularly female journalists. Comedienne Raeshonda Lias-Lockhart was having none of it. Even former conservative editors, by the way, are noticing his cognitive decline.Trump seems upset American journalists are covering the Epstein files and his visit with the Saudi prince and not the (ahem) "$21 trillion" in investments he claims to be securing. Last month it was $17 trillion, and even then, half had been secured in the prior presidency. Oops.From there, Ron shifts to key Georgia news. He recaps Geoff Duncan's recent visit with Forsyth County Democrats, the upcoming Senate District 35 runoff, and new polling data that suggests most Georgians favor property tax relief over eliminating the state's income tax. Ron previews his upcoming conversation with Dr. Daniel Kanso of the Georgia Budget & Policy Institute, who will offer deeper insight into the state revenue implications behind these debates.Tune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!

In this episode, Matt and Jamison welcome Texas State Senator Phil King—a respected Christian political leader representing constituents in Senate District 10—to discuss the major legislative battles shaping the state and the nation.Senator King provides deep insight into the Ten Commandments bill, which mandates the posting of the commandments in Texas public schools, and the ongoing legal challenges at the Fifth Circuit.The discussion pivots to the often-litigious and complex world of redistricting, including the effort to increase Republican congressional seats in Texas, and why Christians should be engaged in this political processFinally, Senator King details the historic passing of Texas' school choice bill, the largest rollout of its kind in American history, explaining its goal to offer options, competition, and funding to families in poorly performing districtsThis conversation underscores the "ministry of politics"—the duty of Christian men and women to be actively involved in government, an institution ordained by God for the good of society.

Senator Lana Theis, representing Michigan's 22nd Senate District, joins Steve to discuss her newly introduced legislation designed to protect Michigan residents from unfair unemployment clawbacks. During the pandemic, thousands of hardworking Michiganders were told they were eligible for unemployment benefits, only to be hit with demands to repay those funds years later due to government errors. Senator Theis's bill aims to stop the state from punishing citizens for bureaucratic mistakes and ensure that those who acted in good faith aren't left financially devastated. She explains how her proposal restores fairness, accountability, and confidence in the state's unemployment system, while providing relief to families still struggling to recover from the economic fallout of recent years.

In episode 148, we talk with our friend Dr. Cara Jacob about why she's stepping up to run for the Ohio State Senate. From property taxes to public schools and healthcare, she shares what's driving her campaign and how she hopes to create a fairer future for all Ohio families.Cara was raised in a small town with a close-knit family who taught her the values of hard work, integrity, and caring for others. Her passion for helping people led her to pursue medicine and ultimately become a neurologist. In that role, she's had the privilege of caring for patients and families from communities across Ohio. She is also a wife and the proud mom of two wonderful children, experiences that have deepened her commitment to building a better future for all families.Beyond her medical career, Cara has been an advocate for policies that expand access to healthcare, strengthen our public schools, protect our democratic process, keep our communities safe, and ensure government works for everyday Ohioans—not just the wealthy and well-connected. That advocacy, coupled with growing concerns over the extreme legislation and corruption coming out of our statehouse, is what inspired her to run for the Ohio State Senate in Senate District 7.She believes we can make Ohio a stronger, fairer place for families by advancing common-sense policies that lift up all Ohioans—ensuring opportunity and dignity for everyone, not just the few at the top.

In a matter of weeks, North Texas voters have the chance to flip a Texas Senate seat from red to blue, and provide another vote for sanity in a chamber dominated by the nonsense of Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick. Union president, veteran, and working class public education champion Taylor Rehmet is running against two far-right MAGA Republicans in the special election to fill a vacancy left by Republican Kelly Hancock's move to the Texas Comptroller's Office.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! Democratic Party Chair Charlie Bailey joins the show for a candid conversation about this year's elections and current events. We begin the show by reflecting on the tragic assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, an event that has sent shockwaves through political circles across the country. We then shift focus to Georgia, where Democrats are facing several critical tests in the near future. Bailey outlines the party's strategy in the upcoming Senate District 21 runoff - a race that could serve as a bellwether for suburban and swing voters. He also talks through the stakes of the Public Service Commission contests, which will determine how Georgia approaches energy costs, infrastructure investment, and regulatory oversight for years to come. Bailey shares what he sees as the opportunities - and challenges - for Democrats as they try to build momentum heading into 2026. Whether you're following these races closely or just trying to understand where Georgia politics is headed, this conversation offers valuable insights straight from the top of the state party.

Today on Truth in Politics and Culture lawsuits are filed after two people who turned to AI for help with their suicidal thoughts commit suicide. Can adequate protections be incorporated into AI to prevent tragedies like this from happening? What does it say about our society when people are isolated to the point of depending on AI as a counselor and friend? And, what will motivate the Supreme Court as they take up the constitutionality of tariffs?

Katie Heid, Assistant News Director at Michigan News Source, joins the show to discuss a new lawsuit against Governor Whitmer over the 35th Senate District seat being left vacant and her refusal to call a special election. The conversation then turns north, as Katie argues Canada should be doing more to prevent wildfires, while Steve pushes back, saying there's little anyone can do to stop them.

Steve Gruber is joined by Michigan House Speaker Matt Hall to break down key issues in Lansing, from criminal justice reform to school policy and political accountability. They discuss the radical left Michigan Supreme Court raising the age of juveniles to 20 years of age. Hall also addresses the defeated cellphone ban in schools and his frustration over Gov. Whitmer's refusal to call a special election for the vacant 35th Senate District, leaving 270K residents without representation. 

Why Is It Unanimous? During the 2025 Mississippi legislative session, the legislature passed Senate Concurrent Resolution 531. SCR531 recognizes the creation of the Mississippi-Israel Joint Legislative Caucus with the specifically stated goal of strengthening political, economic, and cultural bonds between the state of Mississippi and the nation of Israel. SCR531 was swiftly and unanimously ushered through both chambers with bipartisan support early in the 2025 legislative session. The Senate voted in favor by a count of 39-0 and the House voted in favor 113-0. Very few pieces of legislation pass with unanimous, bipartisan support. SCR531 was passed on February 25, 2025. It had become blatantly obvious American military aid was being used by Israeli forces to slaughter women and children in Gaza. Hamas is responsible for killing at least 1,200 Israelis during the attack on October 7, 2023. In response, the state of Israel has killed at least 50,000 people in Gaza. Among those killed approximately 60% have been Palestinian women and children. Even still, forging an alliance with Israel took priority over addressing the most pressing needs of Mississippians in the 2025 legislative session. We have major socioeconomic problems that will take generations to address in Mississippi. Of the 50 poorest counties in America, 10 are in Mississippi. Mississippi has the second highest statewide poverty rate in the nation. Jackson has the highest per capita homicide rate. Mississippi depends on federal tax dollars more so than any other state in the Union. 42% of Mississippi's $31 billion budget stems from federal sources. 65% of these federal funds are earmarked for social welfare purposes. These statistical nightmares indicate Mississippi should focus on strengthening herself from within. We must implement statewide school consolidation reform and adopt universal school choice. We should fully eliminate the income tax in a more aggressive manner. We should make a concerted effort to improve Jackson and Meridian, two of our state's most cherished and historical cities. These are just a few examples of issues that are vital to improving Mississippi. There is a laundry list of issues Mississippians prefer the state legislature to act on. But, forging an alliance with a foreign country responsible for murdering women and children is not on that list. The voter initiative process was invalidated in 2021 and needs to be restored immediately. No bills that would implement universal school choice were introduced in 2025. Although the legislature did manage to pass a bill designed to fully eliminate the income tax, the tax on work will not be totally eliminated until 2040.Within the 90-day 2025 legislative session, our educational future, political rights, nor budget could be agreed upon. But one thing was made crystal clear early in the session: Israel deserved unanimous, unquestionable, and unwavering support from the Mississippi legislature. As Mississippi politicians gather at the Neshoba County Fair this week, keep in mind that each of you took an oath to pursue what is in the best interest of Mississippi and America. Not a foreign country. We, the people, must recognize that if we fail to hold our politicians accountable they will continue taking advantage of our political agency to satisfy their self interests. This letter is to serve as a public condemnation of SCR531. The people of Senate District 18 and House District 44 deserve a substantive explanation, from Senator Lane Taylor and Representative C. Scott Bounds, outlining why they support SCR531. Sincerely, Lee Carleton Smith  Neshoba County, MississippiJuly 2025Support the show

Discover Lafayette: Senator Brach Myers on Public Service, Family, and Revitalizing the Oil Center of Lafayette Louisiana State Senator Brach Myers, who began serving Senate District 23 in March 2025 after representing House District 45, joined Discover Lafayette to reflect on his deep-rooted commitment to public service, his childhood journey, and his ongoing mission to uplift Lafayette and the state of Louisiana. A Lafayette transplant by way of Palmetto and New Iberia, Brach shared, “Lafayette was always the big city to us. I joked and said that many days in the back of a hatchback car ride in the back to Lafayette.” He shared his love of Lafayette: “Lafayette has unmatched culture. You can see the most beautiful parts of the U.S., but there's nothing like coming home.” His upbringing was a blend of blue-collar life and entrepreneurial ambition, split between a trailer park in New Iberia and the early days of LHC Group, the home health care giant his father and stepmother, Ginger and Keith Myers, started in Palmetto, Louisiana. “My mom worked at the General Mill. She was a seamstress. My stepfather was a railroad engineer. She still is a hard worker. She owns a small embroidery business here in Lafayette.” Brach moved to Lafayette in 1999 to attend UL, where he met his wife Carly. They were married just six months into dating. “She's my absolute soul mate… We're residents of Bendel Gardens right here by the Oil Center.” Brach's day job is as Senior VP of Corporate Development at LHC Group, which provides care in over 40 states and employs more than 30,000 people. A humble public servant, he brings his business acumen, heart for his fellow man, and a drive to make things better in his position as State Senator. His son, Emile, shares the family's spirit of service. After seeing the mob of traffic each year at their neighbor's “Christmas Light House" (owned by Dr. Andy Blalock), Emile started selling hot chocolate to people stuck in line, to benefit local nonprofits. “He raised over $2,000 in one night the first year. Last year, he raised over $30,000.” It's now a full-scale community event with music, food trucks, and hundreds of visitors to Bendel Gardens. “He chooses a different charity every year. It's all on him.” Emile Myer's hot cocoa fundraiser has grown into quite a success over the years! Sen. Myers indicated that Emile will probably pass the baton soon to a younger entrepreneur who can carry on the fun event which benefits local charities. Brach brings a deeply thoughtful and humble approach to public service. “I never thought I'd be in the legislature… but I felt called to do it.” Inspired by conversations with his wife during long walks, he felt compelled to act: “I can sit on the sideline and complain about it, or I can roll up my sleeves and jump into the pit.” His campaign mantra has been to lead with transparency and openness. “I said, I'm going to contact everybody back. I'm going to give everybody a fair ear, even if we vehemently disagree.” His legislative office “looks more like a counseling office… People can come and sit down.” As a Senator, Brach now represents three times the constituents he did as a State Senator and works with six mayors instead of one. “It's a lot busier...but I don't take it lightly.” One of his legislative focuses has been health care, drawing from best practices across the nation. His H.E.R.O. (Healthcare Employment Reinvestment Opportunity) Healthcare Workforce bill, modeled after Kentucky and Florida legislation, aimed to reverse Louisiana's healthcare staffing crisis by broadening the program's scope and provide educational grants to reach as many people and institutions as possible. “We picked the things that worked and got rid of the things that didn't.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geae0oiLHMw He's also worked to streamline access to services through a “one door” policy for DCFS and Department of Health programs.

Steve Gruber speaks with State Rep. Bill G. Schuette (R-Midland) about his efforts to lead a sweeping regulatory overhaul aimed at cutting red tape and revitalizing Michigan's economy. Schuette also weighs in on Governor Whitmer's controversial decision to leave the 35th Senate District seat vacant rather than calling a special election, raising concerns about fair representation and political gamesmanship in Lansing.
