In this grip­ping pod­cast, Georgia’s polit­i­cal chess game unfolds as Gov. Bri­an Kemp urges GOP Sen­ate donors to delay back­ing a can­di­date, seek­ing a “con­sen­sus” chal­lenger to unseat Sen. Jon Ossoff in 2026. Despite opt­ing out, Kemp’s push for con­trol over the Sen­ate race reveals his influ­ence atop Georgia’s GOP pyra­mid. A new AJC poll shows Sec­re­tary of State Brad Raf­fensperg­er tied with Ossoff, stir­ring ten­sions with Trump, who clashed with Raf­fensperg­er over 2020 elec­tion dis­putes. The pod­cast ques­tions the AJC’s motives, sug­gest­ing their Raf­fensperg­er push aims to weak­en MAGA and flip Geor­gia blue by cost­ing Repub­li­cans the Sen­ate seat and state leg­is­la­ture. An op-ed claim­ing Kemp’s endorse­ment out­shines Trump’s fuels the nar­ra­tive of a GOP rift. Mean­while, Rep. Mar­jorie Tay­lor Greene’s claim of not han­dling her own trades is scru­ti­nized after her April 8, 2025, Palan­tir stock purchase—up 55% post a $30M ICE deal—raises insid­er trad­ing sus­pi­cions. Dive into this episode for the lat­est on Kemp’s pow­er moves, the Raf­fensperg­er-Ossoff show­down, and MTG’s con­tro­ver­sial finan­cial plays, as Georgia’s polit­i­cal future hangs in the bal­ance

  • Bri­an Kemp askes GOP Sen­ate donors for more time to find a con­sen­sus can­di­date. Who is he look­ing for? Why is he con­cerned with look­ing for a can­di­date? Even though he is not run­ning he still wants the con­trol. The con­trol at the top of the pyra­mid is with the sen­ate office. 
  • Today the AJC comes out Brad Raf­fensperg­er for Sen­ate in a dead heat against Ossoff. New poll shows the clos­est GOP chal­lenger could com­pli­cate the rela­tion­ship between Trump and Kemp. Last week the op ed came out say­ing that Bri­an Kemp endorse­ment is more impor­tant than Trump’s endorse­ment in Geor­gia. 
  • They are try­ing to make it look like Brad Raf­fensperg­er is the best can­di­date, this is on pur­pose. The AJC wants the Raf­fensperg­er ossoff matchup. They want to put MAGA in a posi­tion. They will do all they can for the GOP to lose a con­sti­tu­tion­al office and more seats in the state house and sen­ate. They are work­ing hard to turn GA blue. 
  • MTG claims that she does not do her own trades. MTG bought Pal­ntir stock on April 8th right before Palan­tir made a deal with ICE for $30M and it is up 55% since her pur­chase.
