If you miss out on "The Georgia Gang" - airing Sunday mornings, locally on WAGA-TV (Fox 5/Atlanta) - you may have no concept how comedic this Sunday political talk program can be sometimes. No disrespect to its moderator, Lori Geary, or the staff who puts the show together. I'm not even going to blanket-scald all right wing pundits; I have immense respect, for example, for Martha Zoller, who appears frequently (but not often enough, in my opinion). I just can't, for the life of me, understand why the show's management continues to allow churlish behavior from the likes of Phil Kent. Hear a contrast in delivery from former Georgia House representative Alisha Thomas Searcy and Kent as they discuss Athens' supposed 'sanctuary city" status, and GOP legislation in the wake of the UGA campus death.

While on that subject, the AJC reached out to "crimmigration" experts who all conclude the problem with local law enforcement and their working relationship with I.C.E. has more to do with I.C.E. lacking detention facilities and staffing to handle the greater need Republican lawmakers want of them now. See, I.C.E. is disinterested in retrieving undocumented immigrants arrested for petty non-violent misdemeanors or traffic stops. They simply don't have the means to deal with all of those cases. Ya know, a bipartisan Senate compromise bill that came with additional funding never saw a vote in the House. Who remembers this?

New polling shows President Biden trailing the oft-indicted, found guilty of sexual assault former President Donald Trump by five points nationally. Don't hand-wring over that; be more concerned that this election will come down to five swing states and Biden trails Trump in all five of them, too. Or, keep your eye on 50%, like I am.

Finally, progressives are making some noise (or quietly protesting) in Georgia - or planning to a week from Tuesday on primary Election Day .
