Oh, yes she did. Late yesterday, the Washington Post ran a (paywalled) story headlined, “Fani Willis, Trump Georgia case prosecutor, ends silence on misconduct accusations. The sub-headline explained, “She doesn’t directly address the most salacious allegations but suggests racism is at the heart of claims against her.” Of course she did.




Embattled Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis earnestly addressed the congregation at Atlanta’s Big Bethel AME Church as its Martin Luther King weekend keynote speaker. DA Willis either gave a sermon, delivered a speech, or possibly made an act of contrition; it wasn’t clear. The DA at times seemed humble and contrite, at times emotional and angry, frequently invoking invidious racism, sexism (Fani is Fulton’s first female DA) and unfair discrimination, begging congregants to forgive her for being an “imperfect black woman” who needs to be “allowed to stumble,” and finally comparing the media criticism of herself to the FBI’s persecution of Martin Luther King, Junior.

To paraphrase failed 1988 vice-presidential candidate Lloyd Bentsen, Ms. Willis, you are no Martin Luther King, Junior.

Anyway. Possibly anticipating skepticism over her racism claim, since plenty of white politicians have also gotten into trouble for failing to keep it in their pants, DA Willis defiantly but slightly incoherently insisted that “isn’t it them playing the race card when they think I need someone in some other jurisdiction in some other state to tell me how to do a job I’ve been doing almost 30 years?”

Despite supervising a vast multi-million-dollar budget, employing male sexual attendants, enjoying taxpayer-funded luxury vacations, and overseeing the most historic criminal prosecution in history against a white President, Ms. Willis believes she is the latest victim of this country’s deplorable systemic racism. But that’s not all. She is also the victim of too high expectations.

"You cannot expect black women to be perfect and save the world," Willis explained.

DA Willis’s perfect world began to crumble last week when she was “outed” for bad behavior by one of many co-defendants she indicted along with President Trump under squishy Georgia election crimes. She’s probably wishing now she hadn’t included that particular defendant; maybe DA Willis shouldn’t have been so greedy for defendants.

According to carefully-documented allegations in the co-defendant’s motion to disqualify DA Willis — allegations Willis still has not denied — the Soros-funded District Attorney hired and paid a small fortune to an inexperienced lawyer she was sleeping and vacationing with on the side. And then she assigned him to a central role in the Trump case.




And then — according to his own poorly-kept fee records — in the runup to Trump’s indictment, lawyer qua gigolo Nathan Wade met at least twice with White House lawyers — for a full day each time. Apart from working under Ms. Willis on the Trump case, Nathan has nothing going on that the White House might be interested in, never mind interested enough to spend sixteen hours talking to him.

Unless Nathan defrauded Fulton County, since he was hired to work on the Trump case, his invoiced sixteen hours of meetings with White House counsel had to be related to the Trump case. It’s a smoking gun proving White House involvement in the case.

On Friday, Governor Brian Kemp, a key witness in DA Willis’s case against Trump, called the new claims against Willis “deeply troubling.” Kemp also told reporters that “Evidence should be presented quickly in order for Judge McAfee to rule and the public to have confidence in this trial moving forward.”

DA Willis’s high opinion of herself is difficult to over-estimate. Suggesting that the Creator of the Universe personally arranged her appearance at Big Bethel AME, DA Willis explained “Today, what He has brought you is his very flawed, hardheaded and imperfect servant.”

Nathan Wade’s fee records are awful. They’re so bad that in a non-political case he could get disbarred for them. For just one example, Nathan mostly billed Fulton County in even hour increments, like 1.00, 2.00, or 4.00 hours. Florida’s Supreme Court says that kind of billing violates minimum ethical requirements and has sanctioned lawyers for doing it. And those are in cases without public money involvement.

One gets the impression Nathan has never done that kind of billing before.

The more salacious allegations, such as that DA Willis overpaid her lover, or benefited from those payments by going on luxury cruises and trips with him, are bad enough. But massively more meaningful are Nathan’s documented connections to the White House before the indictments.

Only slightly reading between the lines, it looks like the White House lawyers went to great lengths to meet with Nathan outside the White House so the visits wouldn’t show up on visitor logs. But then — to get paid for sixteen billable hours — Nathan made sure to invoice Fulton County for his time and dropped names.

This story has more legs than one of Wonderland’s talking centipedes. At this point, it’s impossible to say how it could affect the Trump case, or even cases. The media coverage suggests democrats will throw DA Willis under the bus, because her horrible judgment is a profound political liability. What will she screw up next? What other overpaid skeletons could come tumbling out of Fani’s closet?

Fani’s lawyers next called her dad, for one reason only, and that was to say the he “always trained Fani to keep a lot of cash around the house, because that’s a thing that black folks just do.”




Her father, John Clifford Floyd III, is (or was) a Black Panther (and Harvard law graduate), and is a walking, talking stereotype of a 1970’s black marxist activist. It’s a wonder he wasn’t wearing a bowtie instead of his red necktie. He’s clearly a sold-out communist ideologue, and was just there eager to put some stuffing in Fani’s ‘cash payments’ alibi. Overall he was preachy, wordy, uninformative, and uninteresting, but I did laugh when, after waxing eloquent about the merits of using only cash and after extolling at length the sacred custom for black folks to keep their money in bills and coins at home — “most black folks hide cash,” he explained — he later told a story about how much he liked using his American Express and Visa cards and his Traveler’s Checks back when he was running around the country working for the Revolution.

And his reason why black folks keep cash? Racism, of course. The magical invocation that explains everything and nothing at all.

One odd bit of testimony was when John explained that in 2019 he was living in South Africa and he knew Covid was coming. “I knew Covid was coming before. They may have announced it in '20 but in fact, I knew about it, and I knew what was happening in '19,” he explained. Nobody has any idea what he meant; Fani’s lawyer didn’t follow up (it wasn’t relevant to anything) although the claim has made a lot of folks curious.

Maybe he’s Nostradamus or communicates with the departed spirit of Lenin.

Also odd was John’s testimony that he does not have a very close relationship with his daughter, Fani. He’s only seen her 13 times in the last three years. He didn’t even know she was seeing Nathan Wade until six weeks ago (long after the relationship ended). He described another man, a DJ, that he said Fani was dating at the same time she was seeing Nathan Wade.

On the stand last week, both District Attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade testified — repeatedly and emphatically — there was no romantic relationship between them until after Willis hired Wade in 2022, period. That fact is significant because it would prove a conflict of interest; if Fani and Wade hooked up after he was hired, then nobody can say he got special favors just because she was squeezing his lemons.

But yesterday, President Trump's lawyers filed a supplemental brief asking Judge McAfee to review explosive new information including an affidavit from a private investigator who analyzed Wade's cellphone geolocation data. The data allegedly shows that in 2021 — long before he was hired onto the Trump case — Wade twice arrived at Willis' condo in the dark midnight hours, leaving in the early morning before the sun came up, once in September and the other in November.

In other words, not during working hours. And he stayed overnight, a fact expressly denied under oath by both law enforcement professionals. The cell data also showed a minimum of 35 times in 2011 when Wade’s phone was in or near Fani’s condo for “an extended period.”

The cell phone data also showed over 2000 voice calls and just under 12,000 text messages exchanged between Willis and Wade over an 11-month period in 2021, including calls late into the evenings.

The cell phone data reinforced Robin Bryant-Yeartie’s testimony. She is the former DA office employee and former Fani friend, who testified the romantic relationship started after the love birds first met at a legal conference in October 2019. Long before Willis hired her paramour.

I’m not sure why Geraldo was the expert Newsweek picked to opine for the story, but I agree with his take. Geraldo said, “The focus of this case will continue to shift rapidly away from Trump and his co-defendants and hit squarely on the credibility and possible perjury of the prosecutor. This is more than a mere appearance of a conflict. This is an earthquake."

It was unsurprising that during the hearing the Defendants’ lawyers questioned Willis and Wade so closely about when the relationship started, since it’s such an important fact in the case. But Willis and Wade dug their own graves by maintaining what now looks like an obvious lie — and which also raises grave doubts about the other parts of their goofy story, like Fani’s imaginative, all-cash, romantic reimbursement habits because “that just what black folks do.”

Biden Operative Inserted Into Fani Team According To Insider; Jim Jordan Reveals New Whistleblower

For starters, Breitbart News reports from multiple sources that the Biden administration "planted a Democrat operative in the Fulton County office to target former President Trump," which according to the report "would present a strong argument that the administration interfered in the 2024 presidential election." ...

The alleged 'plant' in questionf is Jeff DiSantis - the county's Deputy DA, who not only worked on Willis's 2020 campaign and was the former Executive Director of the Democrat Party of Georgia, he was the DNC's deputy director of compliance.

Sources credit DiSantis with colluding with the White House to target Trump. “DiSantis did this,” one source told Breitbart News about the Trump case. “He’s the one. He is the one pulling all the strings. He was the one that walled her [Willis] off. He was in every important meeting. He is the brainchild behind this. That is the connection to the White House.”

One of Breitbart's sources said they are "one hundred percent" sure DiSantis was the inside man that the Biden administration planted in the Fulton County office.

"DiSantis is the one pulling the strings on this whole thing," a second source told the outlet. "Everybody heard Fani testify. It’s no secret that she’s not smart. That is how she sounds and acts every day of the week."

No chance of it not being a kangaroo court or Soviet show trial... you got a Democrat prosecutor, a Democrat judge, and a Democrat jury in the Atlanta area for Trump .. just like you got a Democrat supervisor of elections and Democrat vote counters

that Atlanta jury is more like a jury of adversaries, not a jury of peers for Trump

Somebody got to Fani Willis witness Terrance Bradley. Fox News updated readers on the electrifying case yesterday in an article headlined, “Key witness in Fani Willis case testifies he may have lied in texts about friends' affair.” Corporate media wildly celebrated yesterday after expected star witness, Nathan Wade’s former law partner Terrance Bradley, developed sudden adult amnesia on the stand Tuesday afternoon. He couldn’t remember squat. CRS disease. When confronted by text messages he wrote just weeks ago that contradicted his alleged memory loss, Terrance could only say he was lying then. ...

Uh huh.

But Ashleigh is a smart gal. She did not go into trial unprepared. Good trial lawyers always prepare for the unexpected, which is very difficult — by definition. Before trial, Ashleigh developed a great written record, and she even sent Terrance a copy of her original motion to disqualify Fani Willis. The motion included all the allegations about the dates of the affair and Nathan Wade’s employment. Terrance confirmed in writing (a text) that he agreed with the motion.

Here’s an example text that Ashleigh kept and then presented to Terrance at trial on Tuesday after he tried to deny knowing anything about the affair:

Trump Slams Fani Willis for Funding Affair with ‘Her Lover’ Wade Using Taxpayer Cash: ‘Paid for by the People of Georgia’
38   Patrick   2024 Mar 5, 10:38am  

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/trench-warfare-tuesday-march-6-2024


Soon, only robotic drone submarines will be able to still see the murky outlines of Fani’s sinking ship as it drifts down into the Marianas Trench. The New York Post’s headline explained, “Fani Willis warned Nathan Wade’s lawyer to stay quiet about affair, court filing claims: ‘They are coming after us.’” Ruh-roh. ...

But, once again, the cover-up is worse than the original crime. As I explained over the weekend, witness tampering is a serious crime. It is gangster-level stuff. If, as Yeager claimed, Fani Willis instructed Bradley “not to talk to them about anything,” Fani could be facing jail time of her own, as the huntress becomes the hunted. ...

But even more painfully for Fani, the devastation goes far beyond a harmful motion for reconsideration. Based on this new evidence of witness tampering, Georgia’s Ethics Commission could investigate Fani. The state Bar Association could investigate Fani. The state’s prosecutor could investigate the embattled Fulton County DA.

Fani could easily be disbarred over this, and if she is, the Trump prosecution will crumble.

Last week, Fani’s lawyers argued forcefully that the luxury vacations and the sex romps have nothing to do with the prosecution of President Trump and his co-defendants. But, if Fani is found to have committed crimes in her prosecution of the case — crimes like witness tampering — the case goes away.

A hundred percent, Fani Willis could end up in jail over this one.

I will now make a rare prediction. A week ago I wrote that, if Fani were smart, she would step back and not battle to stay on the case. She did not take my advice. And at this point, even if nothing else happens, given the oppressive stench of all her bad conduct, Fani Willis cannot possibly survive in control of the Trump case. No way. She will probably be removed as District Attorney altogether. I’d bet on it.

Another fresh link has now emerged between Democrat President Joe Biden and Georgia’s Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

It has now been discovered that a member of Biden’s reelection team is the business partner of Willis’s deputy.

This comes amid growing concerns about the motivations behind Willis’s case against President Donald Trump.

As Slay News reported, it has already been revealed that Willis’s get-Trump prosecution team has been holding secret taxpayer-funded meetings with Biden’s White House.

Breitbart News broke the story over the latest links after reviewing some financial disclosure forms.

“Chris Huttman, the business partner of Fulton County’s Deputy District Attorney Jeff DiSantis, works with President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign, financial disclosures reviewed by Breitbart News show,” the outlet reports.

Many are taking this as further confirmation that Biden and his handlers have played a role in Willis’s prosecution of Trump.

This stupid bitch just doesn't stop with said stupidity. Makes Kamala look like a genius in comparison.

Willis only added to the drama when she proposed an investigation into the special prosecutor's wife following a subpoena in Wade’s divorce proceedings, accusing Jocelyn Wade of using the legal process to “harass and embarrass” Willis and obstruct an ongoing criminal investigation.

Fulton County ethics board decides at last minute not to hear Fani Willis complaint

The Fulton County Board of Ethics reportedly declined to review two complaints against Fani Willis just before a meeting scheduled for their consideration Thursday.

The board chose not to review the complaints because it found it lacks jurisdiction to enforce the code of ethics against Willis, as she is a state constitutional officer, according to multiple reports. The meeting agenda initially listed two ethics complaints against Willis but was later amended to exclude them.

I wonder whether Fani Willis regrets yet her fateful decision to indict one of the most popular Presidents in American history under a thin, creative legal theory. True, she may have been encouraged — if not put up to it — by some covert and highly-illegal White House dirty tricks squad. But clearly, the luckless DA failed to comprehend the political nuclear weapon she detonated in her own back yard, right next to the broken refrigerator and that old truck up on cement blocks.

Yesterday I reported the curious timing of Judge MaCafee’s new election challenger. Well, apparently two can play at that game. Yesterday, Atlanta News First delivered more bad news for DA Willis in a story headlined, “Two candidates announce run against Fani Willis for Fulton County district attorney seat.”

As the headline reported, not one but two candidates for Fani’s job filed qualification papers this week. The first was Republican Courtney Kramer, a lawyer for one of the Trump defendants. In the linked clip, Courtney hinted that, if Judge MaCafee does disqualify Fani, no other district attorney at the Fulton County DA’s office is crazy enough to take on the Trump case. She also reported that bar complaints have now been filed against Fani and Nathan, which could be another devastating development for the embattled DA...

For any lawyer, even a groundless, spiteful, nonsensical bar complaint is a burden. Since the lawyer could conceivably wind up losing their license, all complaints must all be taken seriously, even if the complaint is no more than a handwritten rant. Dealing with nuisance bar complaints still takes up valuable time — nothing to be done about it — and heaps up unavoidable anxiety until the complaint is successfully resolved.

And that’s just for meritless complaints. A meritorious bar complaint is a thousand times more stressful, time consuming, and dangerous. Fani and Nathan’s bar complaints are probably in this second category. So.

But that’s not all. This week, another attorney filed to run against Fani, democrat Christian Wise Smith, who ran against her in 2020’s district attorney race. He seems like a nice enough fellow.

So you might say the original Fani Willis cancer — a cancer tentacling throughout Georgia’s political system — has reached stage four and is now metastasizing. Just look at where we are: a nail-biting countdown to Judge MaCafee’s decision, which will only be the beginning of that litigation, new witnesses and evidence popping up and leaking all over the place, an Ethics Commission just getting its legs under it, bar complaints, new candidates challenging the judge and the district attorney, and who knows what else going on behind the scenes in Georgia as the political players sharpen their long knives to a razors edge.

Another way to look at it is, the blood is in the water now, and a frantic school of starving sharks is swimming circles around Fani Willis’s sinking political life raft.

As I’ve said before, everyone involved in this thing — even Biden’s political dirty tricks squad — are off the map. Nobody has ever persecuted a former president (or a presidential candidate) this way before, so nobody knows how things could play out. They are playing with unstable political dynamite.

https://slaynews.com/news/fani-willis-colluded-anti-trump-jan-6-committee-fabricate-narrative-destroy-evidence/


A bombshell new congressional report has been published that shows Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis secretly colluded with the Democrats’ “Jan. 6” Committee to fabricate a narrative against President Donald Trump and destroy exonerating evidence before Republicans could review it.

The “January 6 Initial Findings Report” was published by Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) on Monday.

Loudermilk is the chairman of the Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight.

“For nearly two years, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s January 6th Select Committee promoted hearsay and cherry-picked information to promote its political goal – to legislatively prosecute former President Donald Trump,” Chairman Loudermilk said in a statement on Monday.

Over the weekend, commenters continued poking me about Judge McAfee’s connections to Fani Willis, implying they show some kind of secret bias that should change my mind about what’s really going on in the case. So I looked into the claims. The first claim is that McAfee and his wife each donated $150 ($300 total) to Fani Willis’ 2020 District Attorney campaign. The second claim is that McAfee once briefly worked for Fani Willis at the Fulton County DA’s office. Both claims are true.

For background, I relied on an article published last August in the New York Times under the headline, Judge on Trump Case Once Worked Under Fani Willis.

First, as to the donation. In 2020, Fulton County voters were forced to choose between two democrats running for District Attorney. Fani Willis ran against an ultra-liberal incumbent, democrat Paul Howard, and it was no secret that local conservatives supported Willis. Some of our own C&Cers from Atlanta even reported voting for her in the comments. Given that, plus the fact they briefly worked together (more on that in a minute), it’s unremarkable that McAfee made a relatively small donation to Fani’s campaign.

The rest of McAfee’s slim voting record appears to favor Republican candidates.

On the plus side, Judge McAfee’s resume offers plenty of encouraging conservative bona fides. McAfee, 35, graduated law school relatively recently in 2013. While attending the University of Georgia, he was vice president of the Federalist Society’s local chapter. The Federalist Society is a solidly conservative law group (I am also a member). McAfee also was the Law School Republicans’ treasurer.

McAfee’s career could be called meteoric, exactly what you’d hope to see from a skilled and intelligent jurist. Keep in mind, this part of his resume is all in his ten-years post-graduate. According to the Times, McAfee’s very first job out of law school was in the Fulton County DA’s office, where he was briefly assigned to Fani Willis’ felony team. But he was quickly promoted out of Willis’ office to the complex trial division. Then he was promoted again, to senior assistant district attorney, where he prosecuted murder cases in the major case division.

In 2019 — only six years out of law school — McAfee was appointed to assistant U.S. attorney for the entire Northern District of Georgia, and prosecuted federal cases like bank fraud and drug trafficking. In March 2021, Governor Kemp appointed McAfee to lead the state’s Office of the Inspector General, an internal watchdog agency investigating fraud, abuse and mismanagement in government. It’s likely he worked with the Governor in that politically-sensitive job.

He was Inspector General when was appointed last year to Fulton County judge, showing Governor Kemp must have liked the job McAfee did as IG. Kemp appointed him into an open judicial slot, making McAfee the youngest judge in Fulton County.

After all that, no, I do not think that Judge McAfee is secretly working for Fani Willis and playing 5-D chess instead of 4-D chess. His small $300 donation in an all-blue local election — to someone he knew — makes sense. True, McAfee’s very first job as a 24-year-old law school graduate was in Fani Willis’ office, but he shot right out of there to much more important, high-profile, and politically-sensitive positions.

The bottom line is: not only is Judge McAfee smart, experienced beyond his years, and well-connected, but from his resume he is not just conservative but also very politically savvy. It’s now even more clear why he was a great choice for Trump in this case, maybe the best possible choice among the Fulton County judges.

Remember, Trump could easily have drawn some all-in liberal judge instead. Sometimes, and I am not talking about anyone in particular, but sometimes some Republicans can be guilty of being impossible to satisfy and suspicious of everyone. I’m just saying.
