Thursday, January 25, 2024 - Vultures, cheese sammies, border BS & why Jerica's still in it
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
The vultures are circling around Fani Willis - and to hear columnist Jay Bookman put it - maybe she brought it on herself. Then again, maybe there's a way out of this that protects the case against Donald Trump. There'll be plenty more to discuss about all this tomorrow with so many late headlines dropping today. Locally, some good news after Decatur city schools announced plans to serve kids behind on their lunch tabs cheese sandwiches and milk - the cafeteria version of the "scarlet letter." Well, a corporate donor wiped out the lunch debt of $88,000 for the entire system, and a local entrepreneur fundraised nearly enough to have done that, as well. In Washington, Republicans aren't even hiding the fact that the "border crisis" they've been pearl-clutching about all this time isn't important enough to deal with now - or at least not more important than saving it for Trump to tackle, should he win. The problem is, THEY tied action on the border to Israel and Ukraine aid - and Ukrainians need it badly; so no what? Hear what Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney and Ted Cruz had to say - with my advance apologies for the nausea that'll induce. I caught up with 'Jerica Richardson for Congress' senior advisor Andrew Heaton to get an idea how (if at all) adversarial the race for the Democratic nomination for the 6th Congressional district will be. Why'd Richardson decide to stay in once the maps were settled and Rep. Lucy McBath opted to run for the seat, herself? Will there be forums or debates? How'd the state Democratic Party react to Jerica staying in?
