There is an issue with the prosecutor in the investigation into former President Donald Trump and others in Fulton County, Georgia and the judge in the case tore into her.
District Attorney Fani Willis was shredded by the judge overseeing the grand jury for helping fundraise for Democratic lieutenant governor candidate Charlie Bailey who is taking on Republican Burt Jones, who was informed that he is a criminal target of the investigation, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported .
“I don’t know that it’s an actual conflict, but … it’s a ‘what are you thinking’ moment,” Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney said at a hearing on Thursday. “If we’re trying to maintain confidence that this investigation is pursuing facts in a non-partisan sense … That strikes me as problematic.”
Jones’ attorneys claimed that the fundraiser attended by Willis in June raised around $32,000 for his opponent and asked the judge to appoint another prosecutor. The hearing on Thursday was centered around the motion to dismiss Willis from the case.
“The concern I’m working through, is that it’s not a lower case ‘a’ appearance. It’s like a capital ‘a’ with flashy lights fundraiser with the district attorney for the political opponent of someone I’ve named a target of my investigation where I’m the legal adviser to the grand jury and I’m on national media almost nightly talking about this investigation,” the judge said. That’s problematic.”
Willis’ attorney said that Bailey was competing in a runoff during that fundraiser and it was not known if he would be the nominee to take on Jones. The attorney also argued that Willis has treated Jones the same as any other defendant.
The judge indicated that his ruling would be forthcoming.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
