The Ron Show

Marilyn Marks is no stranger to The Ron Show. Today, the executive director of the Coalition for Good Governance joined to raise the alarm volume on a bill that state Senator Greg Dolezal "zombified" from a Democratic House member's attempt to secure another judicial appointment for her home county. In HB960, Dolezal essentially stripped its intent and instead pumped a bunch of what the ⁠organization calls "numerous unworkable provisions,"⁠ not […]

Likened to ⁠useless "Ken and Barbie dolls" by TSA union representation⁠, TSA agents in Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport aren't able to do much to lessen the long, winding lines of passengers trying to clear security to make their flights on-time. CBS News Congressional correspondent Taurean Small tells me if there's any chance a deal to fund DHS gets done before the 'No Kings' weekend. Local Atlanta TV station ⁠WANF provided […]

PLUS: How did Trump find another district attorney who's a poor debater? A southeast Georgia woman charged with murder for using an abortion pill (with oxycodone) was ⁠granted a symbolically low bond by a judge who expressed doubt⁠ the charge will even stick. Also, will the woman - Alexia Moore - have a valid case to sue the hospital upon learning one of its security guards violated her HIPPA rights […]

PLUS: Clay Fuller's "word salad" exchange, SCOTUS may spark a Trumper-tantrum & Sarah Huckabee Sanders plays 'victim' again Melita Easters, executive director at the Georgia WIN List⁠, joined me Monday morning to discuss the most recent tragic story from Georgia in the aftermath of that state's passage of a six-week abortion ban: a southeast ⁠Georgia woman was arrested after using an abortion pill⁠ with oxycodone while pregnant, resulting in the […]

Friday's Ron Show features a weekly comedic therapy session; therapeutic for me if for no one else, that is. My good friend Sterling Thrill - stand up & virtual comedian & political satirist - gives me my weekly 'break' from the headlines ... to laugh at those headlines, to start the show off on this edition. Then, the nasty race for the GOP nomination for Georgia's governor's race is the […]

PLUS: why 'electability' is the determining factor for my decision to vote for Jason Esteves & what happened to "Tulsi: 2020?" Atlanta Journal Constitution columnist ⁠Bill Torpy wrote of a recent anti-Muslim AI-generated video⁠ state Senator Greg Dolezal shared on social media - not just to pile on with the immense disgust for it (which came not just from Democrats), but also to pinpoint this being the moment former state […]

PLUS: Why is Donald Trump averse to listening to his experts when it comes to Iran? Social Circle city officials ⁠closed off and locked the newly-purchased DHS warehouse utility box⁠ - meaning "no water for ICE," and ⁠no access to sewer services⁠, either. [⁠RELATED: Quinnipiac poll: 64% want path to legal status for most undocumented immigrants⁠] Georgia seems to be primed to move ⁠back to using hand-marked paper ballots⁠ ... […]

The ⁠Rick Jackson⁠ v ⁠Burt Jones⁠ ad wars had been entertaining for those of us outside Burt Jones campaign HQ for a while now, but if we take a moment to study it all further, to note that - according to ⁠an email chain obtained by the AJC⁠ (I'm guessing Burt Jones' folks provided it) - Jackson baited Burt into taping a complimentary video using a foster children's charity to […]

Nothing like settling into the recliner Sunday evening to be rattled by the reality that the Trump White House should've known - prior to launching warfare on Iran - that the Strait of Hormuz ought to have been war-gamed (it has been, before) for becoming a deadly "choke point." That's what a⁠ 13-minute '60 Minutes' segment⁠ (yeah, on CBS, still) enlightened its audience to Sunday. Former Biden transportation secretary Pete […]
