After years of feeling like a minority within a minority, I realized I didn’t want to live my life detached from my culture.

NEW: Trump’s stolen election claims are reemerging in the Georgia GOP Primary and could put Kemp-backed candidate Derek Dooley in a tough spot as Collins and Carter run on their record. Dooley is staying quiet on this issue to avoid Kemp/Trump tensions from resurfacing.
President Donald Trump’s 2020 stolen election claims are reemerging as an issue that could decide who he endorses in the hotly contested Georgia Senate primary — and ultimately, who wins the party’s nomination to challenge Sen. Jon Ossoff.

Trump called out Paul at the Rose Garden lunch without actually naming him as someone who is an automatic no in the Senate and said he would’ve “begrudgingly” invited him to his lunch Paul dines with Thomas Massie instead - another Trump foe he is seeking a primary against

Santos says he spoke with Trump today after his sentence was commuted yesterday:
Yesterday, I was given something I never thought I’d have again: a true second chance at life. A chance to grow, to change, and to walk a better path. First and foremost, I want to thank our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for never abandoning me. I’m far from perfect. I’ve made

New York Republican responds to Trump commuting Santos’ sentence:
George Santos didn’t merely lie — he stole millions, defrauded an election, and his crimes (for which he pled guilty) warrant more than a three-month sentence. He should devote the rest of his life to demonstrating remorse and making restitution to those he wronged.

I asked Trump about this race - also notable that Trump doesn't refer to Ossoff by name, just as "a weak, ineffective person" and "horrible senator" On Kemp's endorsement of Dooley: "He likes that candidate a lot and I understand that. I haven't made a decision yet."
Trump is asked directly whether he’s backing a Republican in Georgia’s Senate race. He says he hasn’t decided yet but that there are “very good people” in the contest and that he’s watching it closely. #gapol
