Description

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut, Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell discuss President Biden’s State of the Union speech with Republican Congressman Buddy Carter and Democratic state Rep. Mary Margaret Oliver. They ask whether Marjorie Taylor Greene’s disruption of the speech, which she’s done before, is adding to a growing lack of decorum in the halls of congress. 
  
Plus, the shocking announcement that electric vehicle manufacturer Rivian is suspending indefinitely plans to build a $5 billion assembly plant in Northeast Georgia. 
  
Finally, the hosts answer questions from the Politically Georgia listener mailbag, and give their choices for who’s up and who’s down this week.
