In this fourth segment of "Politics and More" with Shannon Moore and Rosemary Stainbrook, the episode focuses on two main topics. First, the segment features a guest from the Alzheimer's Association, Abigail Mercer, who discusses an upcoming walk to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's research and support. The walk, scheduled for October 1st at Big Spring Park in Huntsville, Alabama, aims to bring attention to Alzheimer's disease and its impact on families. Abigail highlights the importance of fundraising efforts, which contribute to caregiver support groups, a health line, and crucial research to combat Alzheimer's.


Following the discussion on the Alzheimer's walk, the segment delves into legal developments in Georgia. It mentions the first guilty plea in a case spearheaded by District Attorney Fannie Willis. Scott Hall, a bail bondsman, pleads guilty to five counts of conspiracy to commit interference, resulting in a $5,000 fine and 200 hours of community service. The episode reflects on the leniency in Hall's case and raises questions about potential legal proceedings against associates of former President Donald Trump, suggesting that these developments may have political implications. The episode anticipates upcoming polls and the impact of these legal proceedings on political dynamics, particularly as Robert Kennedy Jr. runs as an independent candidate.


The segment concludes with an outlook on the political landscape and hints at the potential influence of these legal events on the 2024 election.
