Betting on Georgia: why is sports wagering flooding GA House races?

Joining me to discuss – HD 62 candidate KaVon Arnold, seeking to overcome not only a primary runoff opponent, but half a million in gaming PAC money, too.

Also problematic is that her opponent, Ken Collier, doesn’t have the kind of voting record that speaks to being a staunch (or even just present) Democrat.

Anyhow, it was good to connect with KaVon; she’s a great story of a hometown East Point / Tri-Cities grad who continues to re-invest in her community and school through good works.

The looming Iran / US / Israel “memorandum” doesn’t pass the smell test, nor does warhawk Pete Hegseth’s assertion that this deal is going to be so wonderul because we attacked them – preferable, I sppose, to not attacking them and just sticking to the JCPOA signed into existence by President Obama about twelve years ago before Trump withdrew us from it.

But also, how significant will this deal even be? And while we’re coming up with $300 billion to repair damage done in Iran, where’s the money for Americans’ having to endure spikes in fuel prices and the cost of goods?
