Carter Center CEO: ‘No significant change’ in Jimmy Carter’s condition

On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell are joined by Paige Alexander, CEO of the Carter Center, who says former President Jimmy Carter is “at home, enjoying peanut butter ice cream and getting the food he wants any time he wants it.”

Alexander also reveals that the Carter Center continues to have quiet conversations with contacts on both sides of the Israel-Hamas war.

Plus, Former Fulton County commission chair John Eaves joins the podcast to explain why he thinks President Biden is correct to give the commencement speech at Morehouse College, despite the fact he believes there will be “respectful” protests of the president’s support for Israel.

And Tia Mitchell discusses the Democratic primary campaign for incumbent David Scott’s 13th District U.S. House seat.
