“They are adding fuel to the fire,” former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, the frontrunner in a contested Democratic gubernatorial primary in Georgia, told HuffPost as she traveled between the Black Belt cities of Albany and Thomasville on Friday. “It’s coming up at every stop we’re making.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — When Kash Patel visited Hawaii last summer, the FBI took pains to note the director was not on vacation, highlighting his walking tour of the bureau’s Honolulu field office and meetings with local law enforcement.
