There is fight left in the state of Georgia. And there is an official petition to investigate Fannie Willis, as well as now his letter to Governor Brian Kemp. I'm going to read this. Colton Moore, welcome to the program. Dear Governor Kemp, we, the undersigned, being the duly elected members of the Georgia House of Representatives and Georgia Senate, and compromising three -fifths of each respective house pursuant to article four section two paragraph 7b, making sure my Roman numerals are right, hereby certify to you in writing with a copy of the Secretary of State that in our opinion emergency exists in the affairs of the state, requiring a special session to be convened under that section for all purposes to include that limitation, the review and response of the actions of Fannie Willis. Sincerely, Colton Moore. Colton, welcome to the program. Tell us about it. Charlie, thank you for having me. I mean, we're in a dire situation. After these indictments came out, I woke up, ate my biscuit, and I was like, is there a hair in my biscuit? I mean, this is disgusting. We have a district attorney using taxpayer money, using her government authority to persecute her political opponent to the tune of the death penalty. I will not be a sitting senator in this state and potentially have the former president be executed in the state of Georgia. Yeah, so let's just kind of walk through this. You are now leading a legislative campaign of oversight. What does that look like constitutionally in the state of Georgia? Tell us about it. So I have a job to do as a Senator, Charlie, and part of that job in the legislature is providing oversight. The Constitution gives us some tools to do that. First of which is the power of the purse, right? We control the money. And my constituents, Georgians outside of the city of Atlanta, don't feel that their tax dollars ought to be used for this type of purpose. You know, we've also got the power to investigate any judicial or executive official, and we ought to be doing an investigation on Fannie Willard. And if that investigation turns out that she's corrupt, like many of us suspect, it's time for impeachment. And so what is impeached? So in the Georgia Constitution, the House or the Senate can impeach a prosecutor. Is that correct? That's correct. Yeah, it's one of those checks and balances that we're blessed with here in the presidential system of American government. So let me ask you, read the room for us amongst your colleagues. You're leading this. It's now going totally viral as finally, praise God, good on you. Let's use some of this constitutional power to slow this down, investigate her. Was she given an external power? Why is she and why is she indicting the entire Republican Party, such as Trump? It's John Eastman, Rudy Giuliani, Jen Ellis. It's totally out of control. It's a fellow senator. It's a colleague of mine in the Senate. Is it also included on that indict? So what is what is the temperature check of the Georgia Senate? Is this going to be met? Yeah, please. Yeah, I mean, Republicans in the state of Georgia are asleep at the wheel, OK? Everything is talk, talk, talk. I talked to my other fellow senators and everything's well, you know, we're kind of wait this out, talk about it, you know, post the tweet, you know, let's make a Facebook post. I have a job to do. It's time to take action. And Charlie, let me tell you, right after this and that, I was having dinner with my mother and I told her, I said, no more talk like I have a job to do. Time to take action. And she was worried. He's like, I don't know, you know, they've got these guys charged with crimes that could potentially result in lethal injection. I don't know if I want you meddling in that. And I was like, mom, that's the time to take action, because as a red blooded American, you should never fear a Gestapo political tactic from a power like a D .A.. So I don't want to get you in trouble here, but just I want to I want to drill this down. Your other do you think your colleagues are going to support this? Oh, I think when their constituents start calling them up, they're going to be supporting them. Boom. Right. Because it's time to take action. Well, according according to Fannie Willis, it's a conspiracy to ask your lawmakers to do something. But whatever. Let's let's let's just be clear. So for the patriots of Georgia, they need to call their state rep on their state senator. And what is the ask? What is the order? To help us with this process to begin defunding the district attorney and investigating through the means of a special session. That's our job as a legislature to put a check and balance on this judicial branch, to put a check and balance on the judicial branch. And and praise God, you have the courage. Were you cautioned not to get into this by certain, let's just say older Republicans? Were you told, don't send this letter? You know, the caution comes in many forms. They're all cautious. And that's the scary part. That's what makes me so afraid. I mean, I'm 29 years old, Carly. I do not want to live the next 30 years of my life worried about a regime. I mean, this is some Putin fascist nonsense. So the letter is composed to the governor. Does he have to be the one to actually call the special session? No, no. So part of that check and balance process, the governor himself could call a special session and we could start right now. We could start tomorrow. But the governor has already made his statement. You know, he's looking back at this like this is a 2020 issue. Well, it took 19 days to count the votes. And these individuals have a legitimate concern about the election. Right. They were they were using their First Amendment to express concern about the election. And then now they're being charged with it. They're being taken political prisoner. And so so then you guys can call the session with three. That's right. Without the governor. Right. Without the governor. Does he preside over it or is he called into it or? No, no. The legislature would be operating independently and it gives us full subpoena power. So what are the what are the numbers, the House and the Senate, as far as the Republican majorities? So if every Republican in the Senate signed on, we would have we would have what was necessary. It's going to take every GOP Republican to stand up and abide by the principles of freedom, regardless of whether you like Donald Trump or not, regardless if you have a beef with some of these other folks who are indicted. These folks were using their freedom of expression and they had a concern. So the problem we're going to have over in the House is we're going to have to pick up a few Democrats. The margins are a little tighter there. But here's the other thing about this district attorney. The ACLU reports that half of the inmates in her jail have yet to be charged with a crime. And in meanwhile, we've got Young Thug, Young Slime, who's got RICO charges similar to what these political prisoners are about to have, and they haven't even picked a jury in over a year now. So so now we have evidence it's Young Thug. I thought is this some sort of a rapper or something? I believe so. Yeah, I'm not I'm not a big rap music fan, but his name is Young Thug. And I think the crime syndicate called Young Slime. Got it. So, yeah, so they they're standing for RICO charges and she's going easy on him. Meanwhile, so I mean, and by the way, Fulton County, it's like a third world country. When I go there, crime is up. It's terrible. And yet she's going she's trying an interstate RICO case. I this and claims that she can get it done in like six months. Right. And 18 people. And yet it's ridiculous. And yet Republicans are asleep at the wheel and say, I don't know, just let's let it play out. You know, so we have to wake up the Republican Party. I'm sure you have some colleagues that are going to stand with you, but we have to each Republican Georgia senator one by one. We need every county in Georgia. We need mass mobilization. This is the call to action. I just want you to riff on this. I'll be honest. I love the people of the state of Georgia. I love Georgia. But you guys have really disappointed in some ways in the last couple of years. It's a strange Republican apparatus. This is a chance for Georgia redemption. Yeah, no doubt.

Gov. Kemp Questions Letting Buckhead Leave Atlanta as Vote Looms
"There was an effort in Atlanta and the Atlanta suburbs of Buckhead to secede from the city. Buckhead is a very wealthy area of Atlanta and the citizens there have been hit especially hard with crime and with criminals. And their argument is that while they're paying perhaps the most the most taxes in the entire city, they're getting the least city services. So the good people of Buckhead decided we are going to petition the state House to secede from Atlanta. Now you would think this would not be a problem, especially since Georgia is controlled by Republicans. But word coming out now, that governor Brian Kemp is going to stand in the way of whatever secession effort comes up. This is the headline from Fox News, Georgia governor Kemp deals blow to Buckhead suburb, trying to secede from Atlanta over violent crime. And the story goes on to outline how the governor's cohorts in the state House are trying to stop this from happening. Now, they're supposed to be voting today in the state legislature on this. But there is a big, big problem, and the problem is coming from the governor's office. And I'm curious to know, ladies and gentlemen, especially those of you who are listening to us in Georgia and we have a lot of listeners in the Atlanta area. Should the people of Buckhead or for that matter should any suburban city that is not being protected from the criminals, should they be allowed to secede from their cities? And that kind of an issue has been talked about all over the country and

Robyn Pfaffman: Brian Kemp Activates National Guard Amid Protests
"Am here in Atlanta and that governor Brian Kemp Todd has called up a thousand members of the National Guard ahead of possible violence because we had violence here last weekend. Keeping the story very tight, we have a $90 million police training facility. Police and fire, by the way, training facility that is being built into cab county right on the Atlanta outskirt. Right on the border of Fulton and the cab in a forest area. And there was a protest there because there are people that despise the police and so there was a protester by the name of an activist by the name of Manuel turnip 26 years old who shot at a Georgia state patrol officer and then was shot and killed in this. And then a week ago last weekend, there were riots because that person is dead. The rioting for people that don't understand the landscape of this, the rioting was in downtown Atlanta by the Westin hotel, which is in the center of the city where people come and know Atlanta from the Olympics back in the 1996 and all of that and so you're talking about rioting in the downtown area where our hotels and stores and restaurants, but this police facility that they call cop city is easily a good 20, 30 minutes away from there. So again, it's outside agitators that are not totally upset with cop city and are choosing to take down the city over Atlanta in a more of a commercial district where they could really cause that much damage and in a forest Todd is that you can do in a city where there's glass and stuff to steal and setting police cars on fire. So if

"David Westin this week, senator Raphael Warnock is hoping for a bit of a boost from Barack Obama's visit in the closing days of the Georgia runoff election, his opponent Republican Herschel Walker is hoping that governor Brian Kemp support will turn out voters this time around and for more on the state of the race, we speak with Emory university political science professor Allen abramo. There is actually one poet. This was full sponsored by the AARP and conducted by joint effort by democratic and Republican pollsters. So it looks it looks pretty legit and it shows a very tight race as you'd expect. But it does show Raphael Warnock with a small lead 51 47 among likely voters in the runoff. Does the Ricky Bobby thing working? He's using that in all the stop speeches now. A couple people had looked that up to see what it was about Ricky Bobby. He was referring to. You know, it's hard to say. I mean, the other day he was talking about vampires and werewolves. No doubt that Herschel Walker has a unique campaign style. Well, so but is that being well received by somebody? Is this cool or cute? I mean, to your point, he spent about 5 minutes describing this vampire movie. He was watching at 1 o'clock in the morning. Is that who people want to elect to the Senate? I think the risk for walker is that it's playing to Warnock's message that walker is not really prepared or qualified to serve in the Senate. He's not talking about issues. He's not talking about what he would do in the Senate. He's not talking about his differences with Raphael Warnock. He's talking about movies that he watched late at night. So that would actually appeal to someone. And I'm being honest about this. Does that help people relate with him? Does it make him a different kind of candidate? Well, I suppose I mean if you're looking for someone who's definitely not a politician, you know, who's an outsider in Mike. Appeal to you, but I don't know that that's going to appeal to a majority of voters here. Much has been made about the fact that he has been endorsed by Donald Trump. Much was made about the fact he was not endorsed by Brian Kemp the governor. Kemp is apparently out there, but I wonder what you're actually seeing here professor, can he help make the difference without coattails on the ballot? That's the big question. So having Kemp's active support, having him out there campaigning with him. Certainly helps. It's absolutely necessary, but the fact is that in the first round of voting, you add camp pulling walker across the finish line, Kemp was winning his race by a pretty comfortable margin 7 or 8 points. And walker, just barely actually made it into the runoff while Warnock ended up just pulling just short of 50%. The question is without camp at the top of the ticket, can walk or do it on his own. I think that's an open question. Amazing. Benter Barack Obama, I guess reenter Barack Obama. He already went there during the general he's going back. If I save general, I mean, of course, the midterms, the actual election. Now he's going back for the runoff. That actually seemed to help Raphael Warnock a couple of weeks back. Will it help again? I think it's key for Raphael Warnock for him to get the African American vote out. And I think that's where Barack Obama can help African American and democratic base voters generally. I think that Obama is probably the most popular political leader. Among Democrats in general, certainly among African American Democrats. So this should help him just in terms of getting that turnout, which is going to be crucial in this runoff. We've seen some senators like Lindsey Graham, Tom cotton, even Rick Scott, traveled to Georgia. Are those kinds of surrogates in the Republican Party while we're talking about a perceived outsider? Are they helpful or do they bring Herschel Walker into the establishment a little bit more? Yeah, I mean, I'm not sure how helpful they are. You know, I think that there was somewhat helpful in delivering a message in the first round that the key here was Republican so that to give Republicans control of the Senate. Now that that's no longer in play, I'm not sure that these other kind of establishment Republican figures are going to really do that much good. In 2021, Democrats could say, without this seat, this is the deal breaker here. We will not be in the majority in the Senate without that risk this time. Does turnout suffer? That's true on both sides. So I think that was a big motivation. Certainly in the two years ago in the runoffs. The question is, who's going to be more motivated? Is it more important for Democrats to get that 51st vote or for Republicans to stop the Democrats from getting that 51st vote? Thanks to Allan abramo it's political science professor

U.S. capitol police are launching an internal review into the missed camera images involved in the attack on Paul Pelosi. Pelosi was hit several times with a hammer after an intruder broke into his home looking for his wife, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

President Biden is blasting Republican candidates who he claims won't accept the results of Tuesday's midterms at a Democratic National Committee event near the U.S. capitol tonight, Biden said these Republicans create a path to chaos and it started with former president Trump.

He has weakened our privacy rights and women's rights. He is denied women the access to reproductive care. In 2018, Abrams came close to winning the governor's race against Kemp.
