Everyone Loves Dolly
A Truth Social post shared by Donald Trump ignites a rare wave of Republican backlash. From Eric Erickson to Senator Tim Scott, the fallout raises new questions about accountability inside the White House.
It’s Friday, so of course, Ron caught up with close friend, comedian and political satirist Sterling Thrill to lighten up this mood a bit. They cover the racist Truth post, Nancy Mace’s hooch & weed issues, dueling halftime shows and more.
The conversation then shifts closer to home, as Georgia lawmakers weigh legislation that could weaken local control over water quality just as development pressures grow along the Chattahoochee River. Ron is joined by Jason Ulseth, the Chattahoochee Riverkeeper, who explains what’s at stake.
The show also tackles ICE detention plans in Georgia and the politics driving them, but the simple math and logistics shooing them away (still).
