あらすじ・解説
The U.S. House has rejected a second attempt to pass a bill that would keep the government funded until next spring, bringing the nation closer to a partial federal shutdown. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Greg Bluestein discuss what this means for Georgia farmers waiting for Hurricane Helene relief and share Governor Kemp’s pointed reaction to the congressional gridlock. AJC Washington correspondent Tia Mitchell joins us with the latest updates from Capitol Hill. We also examine the fallout from a stunning state appeals court ruling disqualifying Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her office from prosecuting the 2020 election interference case against Donald Trump and his co-defendants. What happens next? Finally, we dive into your questions from the listener mailbag and share our picks for who’s up and who’s down in politics this week.
