Warnock’s Voting Rights Warning

Thursday, May 21, 2026 • Duration 27:26

Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell sit down with Senator Raphael Warnock for an extended conversation about the Supreme Court ruling that weakened a key section of the Voting Rights Act and the political fallout now unfolding in Georgia. Warnock argues the decision could reshape representation in the South, weighs in on Georgia Republicans’ push for new congressional maps, and explains why he believes voting rights should become Democrats’ top priority in Washington. He also responds to growing calls for more aggressive tactics from civil rights groups and Democrats frustrated by what they see as an erosion of Black political power.

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down Gov. Brian Kemp’s final bill-signing deadline and why his latest decisions offered a clear window into how he wants to leave office.

Georgia’s race for second place

Wednesday, May 13, 2026 • Duration 28:07

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down the increasingly volatile race for second place in Georgia’s governor’s contest, where Democrats are scrambling to emerge as the strongest alternative to Keisha Lance Bottoms and Republicans remain locked in an expensive fight over who can take on Burt Jones.

Then Greg and Patricia turn to the Democratic race for lieutenant governor, where Josh McLaurin, Nabilah Islam Parkes and Richard Wright are battling for a job that suddenly carries much higher stakes in Georgia politics. They also discuss why a Democratic win in either race could trigger a major power struggle under the Gold Dome. Have a question or comment for the show?

Voting Rights Act Fallout in Georgia

Thursday, May 7, 2026 • Duration 33:56

Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell break down the political fallout from a sweeping U.S. Supreme Court ruling that weakens a key section of the Voting Rights Act and could reshape Georgia’s political maps.
