Annette Aguilar an organizer with the Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights, says that her organization has learned that Fulton County intends to house detained persons at a private prison in Irwin County.”
Yes. Think the corporate moguls of Atlanta Committee for Progress suddenly care about the least of these? Look at the track record!
They want tax breaks & subsidies for private deals. Period!
Diverting school & city money to boondoggles won't affect them. #GApol

This is very compelling! Pete Buttigieg just gets it. The sheer humanity in this clip is why I like this man so much, everyone should watch it!!
The Georgia Supreme Court rules on critical issues such as:
• Voting rights
• Housing affordability
• Healthcare
• Reproductive rights
Georgians have the POWER to decide who serves in this critical role.
Be sure to make a plan to vote on May 19th. 🗳️
We should be learning from other countries...
And we have the opportunity to elect TWO wonderful candidates!
May 19th is the General Election for these court seats, they won’t be on the ballot in November. Early voting starts April 27, make a plan to vote! 🗳️🍑
Anyone who's followed a #GApol case involving the public interest that reaches the Georgia Supreme Court will know what Jen Jordan & Miracle Rankin mean. The court's opinion on the Gulch giveaway was a travesty. So was the Rivian giveaway decision.
Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.
#gapol. Yes, the fine print.
South Fulton County, around the airport, is nothing but parking lots. Why aren't we taking advantage of the Georgia sun beating down on them all day? #gapol

Gee. All that sucking up by our back-bench Georgia GOP congressmen. This is what we get?
This is huge!
Another question for any thinkers out there; Why are “we the people” paying $60bn to $100bn+ every year to have a congress who is on vacation 90% of the time, and refuses to do anything “FOR“ we the people??!?!? 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
President Trump’s bombing campaign against Iran is yielding a windfall for some of America’s top oil CEOs.
Energy executives sold stock worth $1.4 billion in the first quarter on the back of a historic shock to the world’s crude supplies. on.wsj.com/4tvoUbW
In English, #GApol GOP legislative leaders are utterly corrupt. They do the bidding of Georgia Power & data center lobbyists. Georgia families will be paying a huge price - unless Dems win the PSC and bring GPC under control.
Should be huge election issue. @jasonesteves.bsky.social
The next tipping point in the energy transition is approaching.
Overall, solar has already been cheaper than fossil power for a while, but upfront costs used to be higher.
That's no longer the case. Solar is now competitive upfront AND has vastly lower operating costs (no fuel).
We are screwed….
A local organizer uses scenarios of colorful animal friends in conversation to help families break the ice on ICE every Saturday afternoon in Grant Park.
A seemingly routine $15,000 contract has become a prolonged fight in Dunwoody, as the city council, for the second time in as many months, unanimously voted to defer a deal for Flock Safety’s 911 response system due to ongoing privacy, security and legal concerns.
I wonder what it would be like to have a government that functioned.
Putting ICE in the airports was a monumentally stupid move. He’s exposing people who otherwise would have had no interaction with them. ICE is now more visible than ever. And people already hate them.
Wait! We could use that money to pay teachers better. Or how about the TSA workers.
Pulitzer-worthy
Today, on the 16th anniversary of the ACA, Georgia is still blocking Medicaid expansion because Republican leaders chose not to act — from Donald Trump to leaders here at home like Geoff Duncan.
Health care is about health, wealth, and opportunity. Georgians deserve better.
Repeat: Budgets are moral documents!
