Everton Blair: a “leader we deserve?” | The ‘peace Prez’ goes to war
Dr. Everton Blair and CBS News' Thane Rosenbaum & Taurean Small all joined The Ron Show today.
It’s qualifying week at the Georgia Capitol, and Ron caught up with Dr. Everton Blair, the former Gwinnett school board chair now challenging Congressman David Scott in the Democratic primary. Blair explained why he’s running – particularly against an incumbent Democrat, called for new leadership in the 13th District, and weighs in on affordability, transportation, LGBTQ representation, and U.S. strikes on Iran.
Then, Ron caught up with CBS News legal analyst Thane Rosenbaum for a break down on the high-stakes Georgia trial of the Apalachee High School father of accused school shooter Colt Gray — and whether criminal negligence applies.
In hour two, CBS congressional correspondent Taurean Small joined to explain Congress’ response options in the aftermath of the President’s military action in Iran before Ron showcases the many MAGA voices not on board.
Lastly, once again decades of empirical data shows that anti-immigrant deficit hawks let the xenophobia win out over their fiscal conservatism because immigrants help to reduce the annual deficit. Oops.
