This podcast delves into the leadership of Josh McKoon and his controversial tenure at the Georgia GOP. BKP, who was 1st Vice Chair under McKoon, criticizes his dictatorial control and lack of transparency within the party. McKoon is accused of taking credit for Trump's victory while failing to secure crucial wins for Georgia, including losses in the State House under his leadership. The segment also touches on the decline of the Georgia GOP and the problematic leadership of both McKoon and the GOP’s previous chair and McKoon’s friend, David Shaffer, questioning their true commitment to the party’s success. McKoon’s recent push for election integrity is seen as political posturing, with concerns about his connections to Brian Kemp’s faction and his failure to address real issues. The segment highlights the significant losses Georgia Republicans have faced in the last five years, reflecting the ineffectiveness of the current leadership.

The focus shifts to the ongoing fight for election integrity in Georgia, with efforts to secure elections through the introduction of paper ballots and the removal of QR codes from ballots, as seen in SB189. Despite promises, Brad Raffensperger and lawmakers are considering whether to invest in removing the QR codes or update the software. A federal ruling has confirmed the QR codes’ unlawfulness, adding complexity to the issue. The segment discusses the role of state and federal laws in safeguarding elections, as well as the challenges posed by voter rolls and the integrity of voting systems. The conversation emphasizes the importance of securing elections and restoring sovereignty through transparent and accountable election processes.

In Georgia, finding true conservative leadership is becoming increasingly difficult, as the state faces growing concerns over its political landscape. In Georgia's legislature, “conservative” Republicans push a midyear budget that focuses on increases for mental health, school security, and law enforcement, yet wasteful spending on projects like the $650M water system for Hyundai. The state's shift toward Democrat values has raised alarms, particularly over election security. Calls to return to paper ballots and human-controlled voting are necessary as technology progresses. However, election officials, including Brad Raffensperger, resist these efforts, pushing costly contracts and defending the current system as the most secure. The fight for real election integrity in Georgia faces significant roadblocks, leaving citizens frustrated with the lack of progress on true reform.

As Georgia's 2025 legislative session continues, Lt. Gov. Burt Jones is expected to announce his candidacy for governor in April, setting up a potential showdown with Attorney General Chris Carr. Political tensions are rising as Governor Brian Kemp reportedly distances himself from Jones, while the AJC seems cautiously supportive of Jones, only to likely turn against him once he becomes the GOP nominee. Legislative changes, such as a bill eliminating taxes on tips and SB39 targeting transgender youth healthcare, are also fueling political debates with implications for the 2026 elections. The GOP is facing challenges, with infighting among factions and fears of a Democratic resurgence, led by figures like Keisha Lance Bottoms. Meanwhile, the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee is targeting the Georgia House as a potential power shift in 2026, leaving the GOP scrambling to unite and regroup. With growing divisions, the question remains whether Republicans can maintain their foothold or risk a Democratic takeover.
