ATLANTA – Georgia, perhaps more than any other state in the country, is being tormented by a kind of zombie campaign to bring Trump to victory a month after election day.
However, the government. Elected Joseph R. G.R. in Biden Jr.’s state government. Although Brian Kemp has already given the certificate, his fellow Republicans plan to hold a pair of State Senate committee hearings on Thursday that are likely to dig into the question. There was a presidential election, as President Trump wrongly says, “hard”.
Mr. Trump will soon make his case in person. The president, who has given Mr. Kemp and other local Republicans the presidency for not overturning Mr. Biden’s victory, will hold a rally on behalf of state Republican senators, David Perdue and Kelly Lofler, at Waldosta on Saturday, before the January effect. It will determine the balance of power in the upper chamber.
On Thursday, Democrats announced that former President Barack Obama Will host a virtual rally Rev. on Friday. Raphael Warnock and John Osof, Ms. For Loffler and Mr. Perdue’s Democratic Challengers. Mr. Obama will join Stage Abrams, a former Georgia legislator and governor candidate who championed the state’s right to vote.
Many Republicans in the state continue to make significant efforts – and engage themselves in political pretzels – to explore the president’s aggression that he has lost the state, to show his supporters that he is doing as much as possible. Any traces of fraud to support Mr. Trump’s baseless claims.
For some Republicans, the most immediate concern is that ongoing efforts to undermine confidence in the presidential election process will reduce all-vote turnout in the all-important 5-run race for seats in January.
Secretary of State Brad Rafensparger, who is running for re-election in 2022, is one of many Georgia Republicans who are turning their actions toward two opposing measures: defending the integrity of their state election, maintaining sustainability and trying to evolve. . Political weather systems generated by the trivial Mr. Trump.
The president may avoid conspiracy theories and speculation – he has publicly attacked Mr. Rafensparger and Mr. Kemp for not following his wishes – but he is also the most popular figure in the Republican Party.
Probably worried about his future in politics, Mr. Rafensparger has tried to survive by pushing back Mr. Trump’s aggression and staying in line.
On Wednesday, Mr. Rafensparger announced that Mr. Trump had lost, making it clear that he was still the Trump man at heart: “We wish our man had won the election,” he said, “but he doesn’t seem to Not that our man has won the election. “
Mr. Kemp, who is also up for re-election in 2022, has adopted a similar strategy. On Monday, in a tweet, Mr. Trump called Mr. Kemp “disappointing” and urged him to interfere in the election. That same day, an email was sent to Mr. Camp’s campaign announcing that Georgia Republicans should “unite as a party to advance President Trump’s bold, conservative agenda.”
President-elect Joseph R. With Biden Jr. releasing a consistent list of congressional elections for top jobs and Congress working to pass a compromise incentive plan, much of Washington seems to be moving beyond the election dramas that came out for most of last month.
Even when President Trump is challenging the results through the remaining narrow channels, he seems to be at least considering the next step.
He made it clear that he was deeply committed to fighting the election result and released a 46-minute videotaped divorce on Wednesday in which he spoke angrily and complained of a “tough” vote. He was followed by his own attorney general, William P. “To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could lead to a different outcome in the election,” Bair said, despite inquiries from the Justice Department and the FBI. ”
Still, Mr. Trump is hinting that he can only determine the vision of becoming the second president in American history to win a second term after being defeated. He also discussed the steps he could take to insulate himself before the 2024 presidential election, such as a pre-apology to his family members before leaving office.
It remains to be seen how serious it is. Many allies believe that the president’s second run in 2024, when he turns 78, is more about maintaining consistency, raising funds, calming his wounded pride and trying to label him a loser.
But even if it’s just for show, Mr. Trump’s 2024 campaign debate has already stabilized the Republican realm and could delay the emergence of a new pay generation of leaders, leading the party to months or years of political polarization.
Georgia Republican Senator David Perdue, who is facing a runoff election that could determine senator’s control, traded 2,596 stocks in one term in office, including 20 or more transactions at the same time in a single day.
An analysis by the Times found that the number of businesses carried out by its Senate colleagues has exceeded that. And the duration of some of them has raised questions about conflicts of interest, with a focus on the senator’s investment portfolio just weeks before the highly result-oriented runoff election.
The Justice Department examined the senator for potential insider trading in the sale of more than 1 million shares of the firm’s financial analysis in Cardiletics. Eventually the plaintiffs refused to bring charges.
The Times analyzed data compiled by Senate Stock Watcher, a non-partisan party that integrates publicly available information on legislators’ trades. Mr. Pardu’s transactions – almost exclusively in stocks but also in bonds and funds – account for a third of all senators’ deals recorded in the last six years.
The data also shows the breadth of the business that Mr. Parde has done in companies that take advantage of policy and spending matters that are not only before the Senate, but the committees and subcommittees on which he has served.
As a member of the Senate Cyber Security Subcommittee, Mr. Perdue cited a horrific report about foreign hackers posing a threat to the U.S. computer network. The report was made by a California-based company called Fire, which has been bought and sold 61 times since 2016 by Mr. Perdu, a federal contractor with stock. At one point he owned શેર 250,000 worth of shares in the company.
Ivanka Trump testified in a closed-door testimony on Tuesday as part of a lawsuit filed in January by the Attorney General in the District of Columbia, claiming that President Trump’s inaugural committee paid for the Trump International Hotel in 2017.
Deputy Attorney General Carl A. Washington of Washington. The appointment is now a series after the Trump Trump Inauguration Committee and the Trump Organization scrapped efforts by the Trump Organization in September to dismiss the case. Federal court in Washington.
Mr. Trump’s main donor and chairman of the inaugural committee, Mr. Washington J. Barrack Jr. and others have so far been ousted, including Michael D inc Malincourt, managing director of the Trump International Hotel in Washington.
The lawsuit alleges Ms. Trump was informed before the inauguration in January 2017 that the hotel’s nonprofit opening committee – the initial amount to charge 50 450,000 a day – was considered too much.
Mr Dame Malinkore then reduced the proposed charge for the hotel’s President Ballroom rental to $ 175,000, but documents suggest it was more than reasonable for some members of the staff.
Mr Resin claims that despite these low prices, the inaugural committee “violated district law by exploiting profiteers to engage in self-dealing.” No details about the deployment have been released. Stephanie Winston Volkoff, a former aide to the Trump family who helped plan the inauguration, will take up her post next week.
The lawsuit by Mr. Resin is a civil case. It differs from the investigation by the federal prosecutor in Manhattan, who conducted an investigation of donors for the inauguration, who spent at least twice as much as his predecessor and spent a total of more than 107 million.
