Episode Description

Hosts Greg Bluestein and Riley Bunch break down Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones’ official entry into the race for Georgia governor, his deep ties to Donald Trump and what that means for a crowded GOP field. They also look at how Jones’ candidacy could reshape city-state relations in Atlanta, from Buckhead cityhood to airport control, and why Mayor Andre Dickens is carefully navigating federal politics as he heads into his reelection campaign.
