A bipartisan group of Senate negotiators has reached a hard-fought agreement on border security measures. Today on The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s “Politically Georgia” podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell introduce Emory University political science professor Andra Gillespie and immigration attorney Charles Kuck to dig deeper into what’s in the border security measure and discuss the fact that the bill gives Republicans much of what they’ve asked for, even as House GOP leaders say it will be dead on arrival in their chamber. 

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden wins 96% of the vote in South Carolina’s Democratic primary over the weekend. But it was an imperfect test of his strength since he was competing against two virtual unknowns. Hear what imperfect conclusions may be drawn from the Biden victory. 

Plus, the Fulton County district attorney's office files a motion acknowledging that DA Fani Willis is in a romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade. But the motion disputes many allegations made by defendants who want Willis dismissed from the case.
