Fulton Sheriff Pat Labat may have some explaining to do ... like why he hired his wife's now defunct companies to consult his political campaigns to the tune of $83k plus the last six years. Smacks of impropriety - no different than Jared & Ivanka making MILLIONS while dad's in office and, if guilty, Hunter while "pop" was VP.

A Buckhead murder last weekend has just stuck in my craw since word broke of it; when will there be "that" one (or more) senseless loss that triggers us to speak, societally, about combatting the causes of crime and "criminal culture" instead of perpetuating the same cycle of militarized policing and imprisoning the "land of the free?"

I was joined today by Mamie Hillman with the Greene County African American Museum and director of the "Original 33" committee honoring the first 33 African American legislators elected to Georgia's General Assembly shortly after the Civil War. For all the talk about "critical race theory" and such, it's sort of frustrating that their story isn't in Georgia history textbooks. She and I discuss that and events taking place Friday and Saturday to commemorate them.
