WABE politics reporters Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali return to “Closer Look,” to discuss whether President-elect Donald Trump's staunch supporters from the Peach State will have a role in his new administration and review how Trump’s reelection could impact Fulton County’s election interference case. The reporters also preview the 2025 legislative session.

Plus, Basil Watson, a Georgia-based Jamaican artist and sculptor, recently sculpted the John Lewis Memorial. The 12-foot statue depicts Lewis with his hands over his heart. The “Closer Look” team caught up with Basil in front of the statue at the Decatur Square. Rose talks one-on-one with Basil about his approach to creating an artistic figure of the late congressman and civil rights pioneer that will be cemented into history for years to come. The new statue of Lewis replaces a Confederate monument that stood there for more than a century.
