MAGA bootlicker Beach hopes to stick Fulton voters with Trump's legal tab

Outgoing state senator Brandon Beach - because he can fog a mirror - knows Donald Trump and Trump's seventeen co-defendatns were all guilty as hell in conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia. How he sleeps at night after filing a bill to allow Trump to recoup legal fees from Fulton County taxpayers is beyond me, frankly. The ironic twist on it being that he was recently appointed by the president to serve as U.S. Treasurer and has the audacity to push legislation using the "significant’ appearance of impropriety” argument, invoking the Fani Willis/Nathan Wade coupling as fodder.

Joining me to fume over that is Rep. Shea Roberts. We touched on that and the state of the Georgia Democratic Party & a few other topics of note as she and the rest of the legislature wind down the 2025 session.

"Cousin" Shea struggled to come up with a bill she'd voted on in awhile she felt good about, but perhaps one submitted by fellow Democrat Mary Margaret Oliver that passed by a 163-4 margin offering some modicum of relief for Georgia renters might meet muster, yeah?

Also, Rep. Lucy McBath put the brakes (for now, anyway) on her exploring a gubernatorial run, leaving Georgia Democrats with a pretty open field (for now, anyway), but also leaving Congressional hopefuls eyeing her seat waffling or waiting in the wings, too.
