Georgia State Rep. Erica Thomas (D) claims to have been "verbally assaulted" by a white man at a Publix and told to "go back where you came from." Apparently, Thomas was in the 10 Items or Less lane, and Eric Sparkes didn't like that and commented to her about it. Thomas went on Facebook and filmed a tearful tirade about how she was berated, called names, and told to go back where she came from. She also says that he told her to "go back to your country."

Federal authorities arrested Hashar Jallal Taheb, 21, from Cumming, GA, after he allegedly plotted to attack the White House. From The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
Hasher Jallal Taheb, 21, of Cumming, was taken into custody in Gwinnett County while allegedly trying to exchange his vehicle for explosives. He later appeared in court in downtown Atlanta in the case brought by the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. Authorities said Taheb was acting alone and they made no accusation that he had ties to any terrorist group. He was arrested after a tip from a resident who said the young man had been radicalized.

The Washington Post is facing backlash over its "analysis" piece entitled "What’s up with all those black men who voted for the Republican in the Georgia governor’s race?". The article begins with the obligatory attack on white women, but we aren't the "real" target this time.  Instead, the author is enraged that between 8% and 11% of black men voted for Democrat Stacey Abrams' opponent, Republican Brian Kemp.
