A steady stream of Trump fanatics, still hung up on Georgia's 2020 presidential tally, rattled on about debunked conspiracies before the Georgia Elections Board today, to no avail. The occasion bears to mind how much the MAGA folks ... well, conservatives in general ... take issue with "democracy."

There's also the matter of Georgia's film tax credit and its diminished returns, according to a GSU Fiscal Research Center study. Watch as this gets more scrutinized than other taxpayer-funded boondoggles.

Speaking of cinema, Hollywood is all-in on realistic dystopia, lately, no? I'll dive in on two of the latest offerings ("Leave The World Behind" - trailer here - and "Civil War" - trailer here) and ponder as to their potential to be borne out in reality.

Lastly, yet another AJC op/ed on "Cop City" does a lot of "inevitability" planting; it also fails to mention the paper's parent company ties to the Atlanta Police Foundation, but do we even expect editorial integrity from 'em, anymore?
