The New Uncivil War
Georgia's newest Public Service Commissioners - Dr. Alicia Johnson & Peter Hubbard - joined the show.
A deadly ICE shooting in Minneapolis ignites a political firestorm, and Ron isn’t buying the official spin. As DHS Secretary Kristi (“Cosplay Barbie”) Noem rushed to label the incident “domestic terrorism,” video evidence and expert voices raise serious questions about what really happened and whether facts were sacrificed for politics. Even worse, former (and current) DHS officials are stunned by her rush to speak on the situation.
Later in the show, newly elected Georgia Public Service Commissioners Dr. Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard join Ron to discuss skyrocketing utility rates, Georgia Power’s profits, and what consumers can expect next as Democrats finally gain seats on the PSC.
Also, Stacey Abrams officially says “no” to a gubernatorial run in 2026, but progressives should fear not: you have a candidate on the ballot in May if you can get past her being Muslim.
