Keisha Lance Bottoms adds Tyler Perry to Georgia transition team

Democrats made so much history this week, but here's why Keisha Lance Bottoms' victory in particular gave me goosebumps. #HighStakes

NEW: Georgia Governor-elect Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) has named filmmaker Tyler Perry to her gubernatorial transition team, according to Atlanta’s WXIA-TV.

Keisha Lance Bottoms reveals that she couldn't believe it when she was elected as the first Black Female Governor in America. She knew she was the winning candidate, but it was unbelievable to see it happen in real life. I am so incredibly proud of her.

“Grant, this is our new governor” @KeishaBottoms a woman reunited with her adoption coach, Georgia Governor Elect, Keisha Lance Bottoms, bringing a personal connection into the spotlight after a landmark, election. The reunion highlights a role in the her life beyond her career in public office.

Tyler Perry is an Atlanta business kingpin who is Johnny on the spot any time Democrats want his help. He earned it!

There's a reason why Keisha Lance Bottoms ran nine points behind Jon Ossoff. (Corporate moguls aside, Tyler Perry is facing two lawsuits accusing him of sexually assaulting male actors) www.fox5atlanta.com/news/gov-ele...

Imagine if Keisha Lance Bottoms, the first female black governor in history, was asked on a talk show the next morning how her existence will balance against the fears of white people. You’d rightly note how unbelievably fucking racist that was, and yet here we are.

Democratic Gov.-elect Keisha Lance Bottoms said Friday she’d work to repeal Georgia’s abortion restrictions... Speaking to reporters ... Bottoms said if Democrats “see a pathway” to address the law when the legislative session kicks off in January they would “take that opportunity.”

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that GOP Gov. Brian Kemp confirmed he won't call a special legislative session to redraw Georgia's districts or take any action to limit the powers of Gov-Elect Keisha Lance Bottoms.

If Tyler Perry gave a lot of money and resources to the Governor Keisha campaign, it only makes sense that he's part of the transition team. That's how politics works. Right-leaning people WILL be on those newly Blue states demanding things. Voting is only the first part. Demand shit

Keisha Lance Bottoms is also the daughter of 1960's and 70's recording artist Major Lance with hits written by Curtis Mayfield ...I know this is trivia but I just found out..💙💙💙.

Tyler Perry? the guy that’s currently doing settler colonialism in my country? really? oh Democrats, you never change

Tyler Perry is going to Co-Chair Governor-Elect Keisha Lance Bottoms' (how great does it sound to say that!) transition team.

As this article notes, Tyler Perry has faced two separate lawsuits accusing him of SA within the last year. Yes, he's a rainmaker, but also ... what a weird way to kick off a historic first term.

Tyler Perry’s net worth is well over $1 billion. thehill.com/homenews/cam...
