Can Republicans win without the “Kemp machine” in 2026? They may not have to find out. Rick Jackson is working to rebuild the governor’s massive data and turnout operation and supercharge it. ajc.com/politics/2026/…


this clip that CNN obtained of Georgia Republican Senate candidate Mike Collins' son in law, who has participated in Collins' campaign and reportedly lives on Collins' property, using Nazi talking points to suggest the Holocaust actually wasn't that bad is just bonkers



“I am thrilled to welcome President @realDonaldTrump back to the great state of Georgia as he delivers remarks in Marietta on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, at 2:00 PM at Wheeler High School. President Trump’s leadership and America First vision continue to deliver real results for hardworking Georgians and all Americans. His commitment to strong borders, economic growth, election integrity, and putting America first remains an inspiration to Republicans across our state. This is a fantastic opportunity for patriots in Cobb County and metro Atlanta to hear directly from the President. I strongly encourage everyone who can attend to do so. Seating is first-come, first-served, and attendees will need to confirm their ticket via SMS as instructed. Georgia Republicans stand united with President Trump. We are grateful for his continued engagement in our state and look forward to a strong showing of support. God bless President Trump, God bless Georgia, and God bless the United States of America.” - Georgia Republican Party Chairman @JoshMcKoon who.nucleuspages.com/events/preside…




Cash cow— @Ossoff reports $20 million raised in the last quarter and $42M on hand. His opponent, Rep. Mike Collins, has not yet reported, but had $5 million in the bank at last count. ajc.com/politics/2026/…



Gov. Wes Moore hitting South Carolina, Georgia, and Nevada in the next week and a half to campaign for @claynmiddleton, @KeishaBottoms, @ossoff, @AaronDFordNV, and Democrats up and down the ballot.


Donald Trump’s spiral continues. The failed president, pocketing billions as he drives up prices, is afraid to lose the midterms. So he will reheat debunked election conspiracy theories and tell bizarre new lies to deny his 2020 defeat and attack voting rights. This is a disaster for Trump puppet Mike Collins. Already mired in scandal, Mike will now have to double down on conspiracy theories toxic in the General Election. From the start, Trump’s obsession with Georgia elections revealed his fury that Black voters were instrumental to his defeat. I'm asking concerned citizens nationwide to join me and support our voter protection efforts in Georgia.



Senator Lindsey Graham was a patriot, an impactful public servant, and a friend. His love of this nation, unyielding belief in its possibilities, and defense of its values made him a true force to be reckoned with in Washington. Marty, the girls, and I send our prayers and deepest condolences to his family, colleagues, and our neighbors in South Carolina during this difficult time.
