    Hey folks. If you’ve been paying attention to the Georgia governor’s race, you know we’ve been pulling at a string for weeks. We’ve been tying it around the Republican side, pulling it tighter and tighter until the whole picture comes into focus. Today, we are presenting you with the complete, unvarnished truth.

    Let me come right out of the box and say it: Rick Jackson, the CEO of Jackson Healthcare, is not running for governor to lower your taxes. He’s not leaving his 47,000-square-foot mansion in Cumming or his palatial $120 million corner office in Alpharetta just to cap property taxes or fight illegal immigration.

    Rick Jackson is running to beat Donald J. Trump.

    To understand this, you cannot look at Rick Jackson in a vacuum. You have to understand the Republican ruling class of Georgia. You have to understand the Georgia Republican Royalty—the people everyone lines up for when they walk into a room. And most importantly, you have to understand the incestuous Republican circle that currently runs this state.

    By definition, an incestuous professional circle is a group that is excessively close, exclusive, and fiercely resistant to outside influence. They share the same money, the same consultants, and the same absolute disdain for Donald Trump. Today, we are pulling the curtain back on all of it. Every date, every dollar, and every betrayal.

    The False Promises and The Real Goal

    We’ve asked over and over: Why is Mr. Jackson running? What is the real win for him?

    If Burt Jones—Donald Trump’s endorsed candidate—is not the Republican nominee, does that equal a win for Rick Jackson? If a Democrat ultimately wins the governor’s office, does that equal a win for Rick Jackson? The answer is yes. Because the real win for Rick Jackson and his circle is ensuring that Georgia never has to deal with Donald Trump ever again.

    If you are casting a vote for Rick Jackson, you are not voting against Burt Jones. You are voting against Donald Trump. You cannot support Rick Jackson and claim to support the MAGA movement. By the time you finish reading this, you will see exactly why.

    The Broken Truce: Sabotaging the Senate Race

    To see how deep the establishment’s hatred runs, we have to start at the top of the ticket: the race against Democrat Senator John Ossoff.

    Ossoff has a massive war chest. To beat him, Republicans desperately need a unified front. Back in October 2024, when President Trump visited Evans, Georgia, to survey hurricane damage, he and Governor Brian Kemp famously shook hands. They brokered a truce.

    The agreement was simple: avoid a bloody, expensive MAGA vs. establishment primary. Find a consensus candidate to run for the Senate, put Trump’s name on it, put Kemp’s name on it, stack our money, and beat John Ossoff.

    But Brian Kemp went back on the deal.

    Instead of a joint agreement, Kemp completely blindsided the Trump team and preempted the process. He threw his full political weight behind former University of Tennessee football coach Derek Dooley. Dooley had zero political experience and notably admitted he didn’t even vote for Trump in 2016 or 2020. For Kemp, that admission wasn’t a dealbreaker—it was a selling point. It signaled loud and clear that Dooley was no Trump supporter, and for the Kemp machine, that was exactly what they were looking for.

    This unilateral move infuriated the White House. Today, Dooley sits in a distant third place, and there is no Trump-endorsed candidate in the Senate race. Right out of the gate, the Kemp machine proved they would never put their name next to Donald Trump’s.

    A History of Ingratitude: 2018 to Present

    Donald Trump has never felt an ounce of appreciation from the Georgia Republican ruling class. Let’s look at the receipts.

    On July 18, 2018, Brian Kemp was locked in a tight primary runoff against then-Lieutenant Governor Casey Cagle. Sonny and David Perdue went to President Trump and asked him for a favor. Trump stepped out and issued a full, total endorsement of Brian Kemp. It ended Cagle’s campaign immediately.

    Then, just days before the November general election, with polls incredibly tight against Stacey Abrams, Trump flew into Macon, Georgia. He held a massive rally for 55,000 people with Brian and Marty Kemp on stage, pulling Kemp right over the finish line. If Donald Trump does not do that, Brian Kemp is not the governor of Georgia today.

    But the gratitude ended there.

    When Senator Johnny Isakson retired, Trump politely asked Kemp to appoint Doug Collins to the seat. Kemp ignored him. When the 2020 election fallout occurred, Kemp and then-Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan refused to call a special session. In 2022, Trump endorsed a full slate of challengers—David Perdue, Jody Hice, John Gordon, Patrick Witt, and Herschel Walker. The establishment fought all of them off, except for one: Burt Jones, who won the Lieutenant Governor’s race.

    The establishment views Burt Jones as a guy who rode Kemp’s coattails while being part of Trump’s insurgency. That is why they will never support him.

    The Jackson Family’s Failed Anti-Trump Investments

    Let’s get back to Rick Jackson. His political history is a graveyard of anti-Trump investments, all crushed by Donald Trump himself.

    1. Jeb Bush (2016): Rick Jackson dumped roughly $550,000 into a PAC supporting Jeb Bush. Trump ended that campaign.
    2. Geoff Duncan: Rick’s wife, Melody Jackson, made major financial investments ($3,900, $2,500, $6,600) into Geoff Duncan, the establishment’s fair-haired boy. Trump ended his political future in the Republican party, and Duncan is now a vocal Democrat supporter.
    3. Nikki Haley (2024): Rick Jackson, his son Shane Jackson (President of Jackson Healthcare), and their circle heavily backed Nikki Haley to take out Donald Trump in 2024. Trump crushed her.

    Rick Jackson is not out on the campaign trail with his family. His wife, a Georgia Tech professor, isn’t there. His adult children and grandchildren aren’t there. Why? Because the mission isn’t actually about him becoming governor. The mission is to put the final nail in Donald Trump’s coffin in Georgia.

    The Incestuous Web of the Nikki Haley Campaign

    Let’s look at Nikki Haley’s official 2024 Georgia Leadership Team, unveiled in February 2024.

    Right at the top? Shane Jackson. Also leading the charge? A slate of establishment state representatives: Scott Hilton, Deborah Silcox, and Bill Werkheiser. Do you think it is a coincidence that Rick Jackson is out grabbing food at the Varsity in Gwinnett this very morning, campaigning side-by-side with Scott Hilton?

    These state representatives are tied directly to Brian and Marty Kemp. Scott Hilton used to work directly for Brian Kemp as the executive director of the Georgia First Commission. The Kemps funneled significant resources from their own leadership PAC to protect Hilton and Silcox in their tight House races.

    Here is where the hypocrisy gets rich: Rick Jackson sued Burt Jones for using a leadership PAC. Yet, Jackson completely ignores the massive amounts of money he and Jackson Healthcare have pumped into the Kemp Leadership PAC—money that Kemp then redistributes to establishment allies like Hilton and Silcox, who then turned around and led the charge for Nikki Haley against Donald Trump.

    It is a vicious, incestuous circle. They take care of their own, and they fight the outsider. But point to one time any of these people showed an ounce of respect for Donald Trump. Nothing. Point to one time they showed care, support, or effort to get him elected President of the United States. Nothing. Show me one time they actively wanted to endorse him, financially back him, or lift a finger to keep him out of jail. Nothing. One more time: nothing. The only thing they have ever wanted is to get rid of President Trump. Sure, they might slap his picture on a campaign mailer when they need your vote, and they might often pretend to be in support of the President when the cameras are rolling. But don’t be fooled—it has always been false.

    The Climax: The August 2024 Rally and the Establishment Backlash

    The establishment’s disdain for Trump reached a boiling point leading up to 2024. Remember August 2023, the first GOP Presidential primary debate in Milwaukee? Donald Trump didn’t even attend that debate—he didn’t have to. But Brian Kemp made a surprise visit anyway. While he was there, he went on the “Ruthless” podcast right outside the forum and launched into a verbal attack against the former president. Kemp explicitly called Trump his “loser tonight” for not showing up, comparing Trump’s dominant polling lead to the Atlanta Falcons blowing a massive Super Bowl lead by playing “prevent defense.” To anyone paying attention, it appeared Kemp was in Milwaukee for one reason: to act as a cheerleader for Nikki Haley.

    Then came April 2024. First Lady Marty Kemp sat down for a local TV interview with Karyn Greer. When asked about November, Marty made it clear she was “not there yet” regarding Trump, stating he hadn’t earned her vote and that she’d probably just write her husband’s name in.

    That public slight set the stage for August 3, 2024. Donald Trump held a massive rally at the Georgia State University Center in Atlanta. Neither Brian nor Marty Kemp showed up. Trump, furious at the years of perceived disloyalty, went on a 10-minute tirade. He called Kemp an “average governor” and a “bad guy,” and reminded the crowd that Marty Kemp had once thanked him profusely in 2018, only to turn her back on him years later.

    The coordinated backlash from the Georgia establishment the very next day was deafening:

    • Brian Kemp fired back, telling Trump to “leave my family out of it.”
    • Chris Carr (Attorney General) immediately posted, “Joan and I stand with Brian and Marty Kemp.”
    • Jon Burns (Speaker of the House) declared his proud friendship with the Governor.
    • Bill Cory lit up the massive Quarry Tower in downtown Atlanta with “Kemp Number One.”
    • Scott Hilton (Jackson’s current campaign buddy) rushed to say, “I stand with Governor Kemp... We need more true public servants like Brian Kemp and Marty Kemp.”
    • Never-Trump commentators like Eric Erickson gloated, calling Trump his “own worst enemy” and predicting a Kamala Harris victory.
    • Brad Raffensperger and Gabriel Sterling used the moment to grandstand about secure elections.

    And where was Burt Jones? He was at that rally. He took the stage and blasted sell-out Geoff Duncan, stating, “sometimes you just can’t fix stupid.” Jones refused to turn his back on Trump, issuing a statement that he considered both men friends and wished they could get along.

    The Final Death Knell

    The Georgia Republican ruling class looks at Donald Trump like a disease they have been trying to cure since 2020.

    If Burt Jones wins this election, Donald Trump does not go away. A Burt Jones victory means the red carpet stays rolled out for the 45th and 47th President of the United States. Just think about it—how would the establishment act? Would their heads completely explode if one day President Donald Trump was actually invited to the state capitol to address the legislature, or just to walk through the doors, say hello, and shake hands? Imagine him stepping right into the Gold Dome, standing somewhere he has never felt welcome, right in the middle of that sea of incestuous Republicans.

    They cannot allow that to happen.

    Rick Jackson is the vessel for the establishment’s ultimate revenge. What is $50 million or $100 million to a guy like Rick Jackson? It’s a rounding error if it buys the total eradication of the MAGA movement in Georgia politics.

    Watch these candidates as we move past the primary and into the June runoffs. Watch how they distance themselves from Trump the moment they think it’s safe. If Rick Jackson wins, there will be a massive, private celebration behind closed doors—not because they lowered your taxes, but because they will never have to put Donald Trump’s face on a campaign mailer ever again.

    Don’t be fooled by the phony fraud of a campaign. Don’t be a part of the political ruling class. If you are casting a ballot for Rick Jackson, you are helping the establishment settle a personal score.

    Right now, Rick Jackson is going around putting out social media graphics that say, “I will get you a boatload of your money back.” It’s just something to pull people in, to make you think he’s campaigning for all the right reasons. But my concern is this: Who is he actually trying to get a boatload of money for in the end?

    And when he finishes Donald Trump off in Georgia, will they throw a big party for Rick Jackson as their new hero? Just imagine who could be on the guest list: Jeb Bush, Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, Geoff Duncan. All of them raising a glass, patting each other on the back, and saying, “Thank you. We thought we’d never get rid of him.”

    The Georgia Record was relaunched in June of 2021 and has been extremely successful fighting corruption in the state named after King George of England. The original paper was started in 1899 and published into the early 20th century. In 2020, CDM (Creative Destruction Media) acquired Johns Creek Post and brought back The Georgia Record to better represent the state rather than just Johns Creek News.
