As former President Trump prepares to return to the White House, some Georgians may be joining him in Washington. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Patricia Murphy, Greg Bluestein, and Bill Nigut speak with Trump ally and state Senator Brandon Beach to discuss the possibility of his role in the upcoming administration. 

We also get Beach's perspective on the next legislative session, including whether issues like abortion limits, gun laws, and Medicaid expansion will take center stage in January. 

Next, we turn to Georgia’s Democratic Party, where new leadership elections are underway in the House following recent election losses. Outgoing state Rep. Teri Anulewicz shares her thoughts on the future of the party and the direction it should take moving forward.
