Description

Hosts Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy, and Tia Mitchell tackle listener questions in a new Mailbag Monday edition of Politically Georgia. They explain why members of Congress continue to receive pay during the federal shutdown and dig into Governor Brian Kemp’s decision not to use state funds to replace frozen SNAP benefits. The hosts also discuss the growing backlash over the shutdown’s impact on Georgia families, the latest twists in the First Liberty Ponzi scheme investigation, and why most of the state’s congressional delegation is staying unusually quiet during the standoff in Washington.
