i want you to tell the president how damaging this will be to georgia businesses, georgia farmers, georgia manufacturers, and not only that, to the employees. because when the aluminum manufacturers come in, that's going to be a 1:18 ratio and loss of jobs. now, mr. chairman -- mr. secretary, let me just ask you this. my question is this to you. are you prepared, are you ready to be the one who will take full responsibility as the treasury secretary in charge en georgia and this nation into this high inflationary rate, who's going to pay for this increase? this is georgia and american consumers that are going to do that. what about the loss of jobs in manufacturing? it's going to be the american people. you say, well, the economy's moving on all cylinders. i agree with you, but what i'm curious about is the cavalier attitude this administration as of the loss of jobs, of the impact on this, the side effects while we're riding on this sugar high. so i want to just ask you this question. are you ready to assume full responsibility of the downside, when the darkness comes? are you ready to ta

the sooner georgia voters realize that we're going to see actually more moderate georgia voters realizing the economic policies that abrams is putting forth as realistic, something they need to put whatever issues they may have voting for a woman, voting for a black person, voting for a black woman who could make history as the first african-american female governor in the history of the united states clearly building a broad coalition to say if we all contribute and work towards making georgia better and really think about these things, then it will work out for all of us. kemp is providing nothing except i'm a fan of trump and we hate illegals. >> vanessa, what is the read on the competitiveness. abrams is a star in the democratic party. raised a lot of money, well-known, extremely charismatic, a great resume but running in georgia and they have had a hard time statewide. >> they have had a hard time statewide. what's interesting is the strategy she is pursuing, some have their doubts about it but she and her team have committed to it and other progressive activists not chasing so much

in i was really interested this book because it told about all the battles in georgia. great-grandfather was already out on disability by that time, but francis sherman was involved with most of the or before georgia peachtree creek because by that time he had been captured. officer'ssted in the pow cap. -- pow camp. >> i have done after reading on that. initially it was a list of men south and west to a place called andersonville. , they would go and take a look at what they were doing, they would be playing baseball or they would be playing cards or doing things, he talks about escape. does not mention very many by name. does mention funerals for them, they are given burials in the town. yes. >> it's an interesting book, i'm most ofwhere he gets his information, from the telegraph, the daily newspapers? >> a mix of everything. when he goes to visit his grandmother, there are no telegraphs in augusta -- i mean, athens. that makes them unhappy because he is not getting the telegraphic information that he was used to getting. severalscribe to newspapers, he would hear fr

the diary was written by a 12-year-old boy from a wealthy slaveholding family in georgia when he began keeping a diary as the succession began to unfold and the civil war got under way. he continued to keep a diary and capture a civilian perspective on events through many personal health issues, until 1865, when the war ended. the jimmy carter presidential library and museum in atlanta hosted this 50 minute talk. tony: good evening, i'm tony clark from the carter library, really glad you all are here. i find this really interesting. i really like diaries. i didn't start reading a lot until i was reading the berlin diary. i found that fascinating. ever since, i thought diaries are a great way to learn about events as they happened. which i think is really wonderful. having janet here at the carter library is cool because we are also a civil war historic site. during the american civil war, this was a plantation. the augustus hurt plantation, and general sherman used this as his headquarters during the battle of atlanta. because it is on high ground here in atlanta. it is from this locat

david: so when you went to marietta, georgia, you worked your way up. you had 22 different leadership positions, so you must have been moving around a lot. marillyn: i was in marietta for about 13 years. 18 months in, i was promoted to supervisor in industrial engineering. about the two-year mark, i was put on a general management development program, great credit to a sponsor that, he put me forward for the program. so i spent two years rotating around the company. and at the end of the two years, i was manager over all of our production estimating and budgets.

assassination seveven catholic plowshares activists secretly entered naval submarine base kings bay in georgia one of the largest nuclear submarine bases in the world. they were armed with just hammers, crime scene tape, baby bottles containing their own blood and an indictment charging the u.s. government for crimes against peace. their goal was to symbolically disarm the nuclear weapons at the base which is home to at least six nuclear ballistic missile submarines. each submarine carries 20 trident thermonuclear weapons. the activists said they were following the prophet isaiah's command to beat swords into plowshares. it was the latest of 100 similar anti-nuclear plowshares actions around the world beginning in 1980 in king of prussia, pennsylvania. that f first plowshares action n 1980 w was led by the late danil and phil berrigan. phil's wife, liz mcalister, was one of seven arrested at the april 4 action. mcalister and two other activists - jesuit priest stephen kelly and mark colville -- remain locked up in pre-trial confinement in brunswick , georgia. for others, patrick o'neill,

from the georgia governor's race to a chase involving a georgia judge, a lot to say about it. good evening to you. you have candidates on your radio show and they -- will do what they have to to win this race. >> today on my radio program, i made them swear they would endorse the other candidate should they lose. we saw casey cagle do that. this is going to be a big deal in the state of georgia as the republicans take on this democrat, stacy abrams. people ask me what is the difference between abrams and brian kemp? he is a gun toting bible clinging deplorable and she is not. shannon: she made no secret of that. and what we have been following, 14 years old, when he was arrested, he got a hefty sentence, served 21/2 years in a juvenile correction facility. the judge said i think he has been in prison to at a half years and don't think it helps him much. i am hoping for this opportunity, allow him to go to a program described as tightly controlled military school type environment, he has been arrested for shooting, accused of felony murder of killing a man waiting for her to pi

this implies that georgia and ukraine and muldova must also meet their obligations under e.u. association agreements to commit foremost meaningful progress on economic reforms, strengthening democratic institutions, combating corruption, building independent judicial systems, and holding to the rule of law. the resolution marks our shared commitment to democracy in these great countries to be united to stand against putin's aggression. freedom-loving countries must stop the russian bear and putin's desire to be czar of a new putin-land. john f. kennedy said many years know, let every nation know that they wish us ill, we will pay any price, support any friend, and oppose any foe to assure the survival and success of liberty. and that's just the way it is. i'll yield back. . the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from as a as, mr. gallego, for five minutes. mr. speaker, i want to tell you about a brave young woman, an arizonan, named vanessa ramirez . when she was just 23 years old, she received a devastating diagnosis. doctors told her she had ovarian canc

together with with georgia. new can read the declaration when they publish it but but if we will in the text version of course i reiterate i was strong support to georgia our political support or practical support and welcome. both the nato allies are now providing more support in different ways to georgia with a training center to capacity building efforts supporting their reforms but also recognize the significant progress georgia is making and a fight that georgia is contributing to many nato missions and operations i can be i can say more about this when we have published or agreed to. the statement tomorrow b s s b. james holmes from british rule says t.v. and radio searches are all right that was the nato secretary general young stoltenberg addressing the pres gathered at a nato h.q. in brussels one of the things that he said when starting right off the bat nato is good for europe and nato is good for america and he also added that we need to invest better and we agree that we need more cash and that there

but fortunately, we were 60 miles from warm springs, georgia. about an hour's drive. and he recommended we go over there. and we did. and at that particular point, remember this is ten years before the vaccine. at that particular point whatever experts there were on whatever rehabilitation you could achieve were at warm springs, georgia, so i was really lucky to be that close by. they took a look at me and they talked to my mother, a physical therapy regimen. and they said we need you to do this four times a day. the women in the room who have had children or even if you haven't, remember i'm two years old. we don't want him to try to walk. we think if he tries to walk prematurely, whatever comeback we might be able to get out of applying this physical therapy regimen may fail and he'll be in a brace the rest of his life. so my lower like a drill sergeant. literally watched me every waking moment. for two years. so i was never a patient at warm springs, but she would take me over there periodically and they would check on the progress. and she told me one time, while

they are discussing ties with georgia in ukraine. they are pointing to the contributions in afghanistan. russian encroachment could get the chances of that happening. the president arrived and about 30 minutes late for his meeting. jeff? >> hey there, francis. the president arrived about a half hour ago and at the moment he is in a meeting focussed on the security situation in eastern europe. this is a usual issue for allies because of russia's growing influence in the region. we have that is credibly accused of bad actions and popping up a murderous regime in syria. you have the nerve agent attacks and the attack on the democracy. russia's meddling based on the assessment of the intelligence officials and by the senate inteligence committee done to tip the election in favor of president trump. just yesterday the summit got off to a raucous start. you had uncharacteristically mean breakfast that the president had with the nato secretary general where he accused germany of being captive to russia based on germany's reliance and some s

angrily the six general of nato yet stoltenberg had to say to ukraine and georgia you must leave the room now because we need to discuss this again and then there was a long extended we understand heated meeting because of president trump's comments but no one seems to have made any new commitments in that meeting despite that we have president trump saying that they have committed to fresh spending but we're not hearing any specific commitments from any of those allies it's interesting they also brought up north korea where in singapore he said there'd been a great breakthrough but of course there was a statement as well with some ideas but not really any firm undertakings and yet he said that was a victory so that there is i think a similar a similar thing that's going on here and in both cases he seems to be basing it on trust of course this meeting has ended up i think showing that this the disunity of nato something that russia will great. really appreciate and of course in three days' time president trump is going to see president putin and he was not prepared in this meeting i

from the georgia governor's race to a case involving a georgia judge, there is a lot to say about it.d, good evening. i know you have these candidates on your radio show. they have agreed they are going to find together in the g.o.p. and do they have to to win the race. >> that's right, shannon. today my radio program, made both of them pinky swear they would endorse the other candidate should they lose. of course, we saw casey cagle do that. this is going to be a very big deal in the state of georgia, as the republicans take on this democrat stacey abrams. someone who is a progressive democrat. people asked me what is the difference between abrams and brian kemp? he is a gun toting, bible quoting deplorable and she's not, shannon. >> shannon: she is not. potentially history in the making. i want to talk to about this other case in georgia. there was a young man about 14 years old. he was arrested on armed robbery charges. he got a pretty hefty sentence. it was then sliced down a little bit. he served about two and half years i understand in a juvenile correction facility. the judge t
