Description

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's "Politically Georgia" podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, Patricia Murphy, and Tia Mitchell talk to Norm Eisen, who served as ethics czar in the Obama administration. Eisen discusses the implications of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ explosive testimony pushing back on defense lawyers who want her severed from the election conspiracy case against former President Donald Trump. 
 
Then, the hosts discuss how the Willis hearing may affect the political futures of the participants: Willis is up for reelection in November, and so is Scott McAfee, the judge presiding over the hearing. And, of course, they look at how Willis’ testimony and the allegations against her might affect Trump’s election campaign. 
Finally, questions from the listener mailbag, and who’s up and who’s down for the week.
