Description

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's "Politically Georgia" podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell talk to their colleague Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Shannon McCaffery and Nikki Haley surrogate Eric Tanenblatt.  
First up, McCaffrey joins the podcast to discuss a new motion from Donald Trump alleging that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Nathan Wade lied about aspects of their romantic relationship in an effort to combat an attempt to disqualify Willis from the election conspiracy case. 
 
Then, the hosts welcome Tanenblatt, the national finance co-chair for Nikki Haley, to discuss the future of Haley’s campaign after losing to Trump by a wide margin in her home state of South Carolina. 
  
Finally, the hosts discuss Republican reaction to the arrest of a man authorities allege was in the country illegally in the homicide of Athens student Laken Riley. Republican legislators are looking at measures to crack down on unauthorized immigrants in Georgia, and Gov. Brian Kemp is calling on President Joe Biden to shut down the border now.
