UPDATE: Primed for immediate nullification. The indictment was briefly unsealed before the grand jury voted. This is clear and demonstrable evidence of a prejudicial and malicious prosecution. Divine providence.
The Fulton County DA Fani Willis has been preparing a malicious prosecution against Donald Trump for over a year.
The novel theories around the prosecutorial approach have been widely discussed and the grand jury foreperson previously gave rather odd public statements during gleeful interviews about the evidence the jury had received. It is and was ridiculous in the extreme; however, that’s how lawfare works.
Today Reuters and other media noticed the court filings against Donald Trump were briefly uploaded [screen grab below] and then deleted from the website. Again, more suspect and odd behavior from Fulton County, Georgia, a county widely known as the epicenter of Southern fraud.
Aug 14 (Reuters) – The Fulton County, Georgia, court’s website briefly posted a document on Monday listing several criminal charges against former U.S. President Donald Trump that appeared related to his attempts to overturn his 2020 election defeat in the state, before taking the document down without explanation.
The Fulton County District Attorney’s office said in a statement that no charges had been filed against Trump.
The document was dated Aug. 14 and named Trump, citing the case as “open,” but is no longer available on the court’s website. Reuters was not immediately able to determine why the item was posted or removed. “The Reuters report that those charges were filed is inaccurate. Beyond that we cannot comment,” a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s office said.
A Georgia prosecutor, District Attorney Fani Willis, has been probing whether Trump and his allies illegally sought to overturn the state’s 2020 election results and has been expected to seek an indictment from a grand jury this week. (more)
The first time I saw Ms. Emily Kohrs doing her gleeful and bizarre interview with MSNBC, the first thing that came to mind was Isaiah 54:17: “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.” Indeed, a providence again visible as a shield over Donald J. Trump. Yes, this is a spiritual battle.
Putting aside the rules of grand juries speaking to media that do not apply, because the Fulton County, GA, group was not a regular grand jury – but rather a “special grand jury”, you might be interested to watch the foreperson of the group speak to MSNBC.
No, really, trust me.… you need to see this. Pick your spot on the video, just about any spot, and watch it. I have it prompted to my favorite. WATCH:

On CBS Face the Nation, February 26, 2023, Trump attorneys Drew Findling and Jennifer Little discuss the media tour by Georgia special grand jury foreperson Emily Kohrs, and how the background of the prosecution itself became visible in the overly ambitious statements from Ms. Kohrs. WATCH:
[Transcript] – MARGARET BRENNAN: The investigation of former President Trump in Fulton County, Georgia, took a strange turn last week. And Mr. Trump’s lawyers now argue it could impact a possible trial. At the center of the controversy, Emily Kohrs, the forewoman for the special grand jury that investigated alleged election interference in Georgia by Trump and his allies. Kohrs gave several interviews in which she hinted that more than a dozen key players, perhaps even the former president, might have been recommended for indictments.
Now, special grand juries can’t indict, but that recommendation could prompt the district attorney to create a criminal grand jury. The judge overseeing the case told CNN last week that although the deliberations are confidential, quote, what witnesses said, what you put in the report, those are not off limits to those on the jury.
The attorneys for President Trump in the Georgia case had not given an interview to any TV network, but the Kohrs media tour prompted them to talk to our Robert Costa.
EMILY KOHRS, FOREWOMAN FOR THE SPECIAL GRAND JURY: I kind of wanted to subpoena the former president because I got to swear everybody in. And so I thought it would be really cool to get 60 seconds with President Trump.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Did you recommend charges against Donald Trump?
EMILY KOHRS: I really don’t want to share something that the judge made a conscious decision not to share.
ROBERT COSTA (voice over): Could Emily Kohrs’ public disclosures jeopardize the case that could be brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis? Kohrs is part of a special purpose grand jury that heard months of testimony from more than 75 witnesses about alleged Republican efforts to pressure state officials, like Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to overturn President Biden’s victory in Georgia.
DONALD TRUMP (Former U.S. President): Look, Brad, I’ve got to get — I have to find 12,000 votes, and I have them.
ROBERT COSTA: Kohrs suggested the special grand jury submitted a report to Willis last month that recommended multiple indictments on a range of charges. But Willis has yet to decide whether or not to convene a criminal grand jury that could issue indictment against some Trump allies and even the former president himself.
Drew Findley and Jennifer Little head up the former president’s legal team in the Georgia case. They say that Emily Kohrs’ media tour has tainted any attempt by District Attorney Willis to move toward charging Trump.
ROBERT COSTA (on camera): What are your options?
DREW FINDLING (Defense Attorney, Former President Trump): Are the results of that special purpose grand jury to be crumbled up like a piece of paper and thrown into a waste paper basket? Our options are, can this district attorney’s office continue to be part of this case? We have to legally research all of those issues.
ROBERT COSTA: Have you lost confidence in the district attorney?
DREW FINDLING: We’ve lost 100 percent confidence in this process. We feel this process has been compromised.
ROBERT COSTA (voice over): Emily Kohrs, they say, is not to blame.
DREW FINDLING: This 30-year-old foreperson to us has actually provided us a lens and made us aware that every suspicion we had as to this questionable process was, in fact, a reality.
ROBERT COSTA (on camera): But she didn’t break any rules, though, right? She may have break – broken a norm, but the grand jury was over by the time she went on this media tour, as you put it.
DREW FINDLING: Yes.
ROBERT COSTA: So, what did she do wrong, in your view, legally?
DREW FINDLING: We have no chagrin towards this foreperson. And it looks like they lost perspective over keeping separation between prosecuting attorneys and the members of this grand jury. There cannot be a relationship. When the foreperson uses the word “we,” that lets you know there’s a relationship there. When she says in interviews certain battles were not worth us battling, it’s not the special purpose grand jury that’s litigating, it’s the district attorney’s office.
ROBERT COSTA: She said, it wouldn’t be worth the battle they decided to call your client in, former President Trump in as a witness. That’s the public statement she made.
DREW FINDLING: And – and – right. And – and who knows what that is based on.
ROBERT COSTA: He wasn’t called in the special grand jury part of this investigation. Did that surprise you? And if he was called, would you have fought that subpoena?
JENNIFER LITTLE (Defense Attorney, Former President Trump): I’m not going to speak to what our legal decisions would have been. But it was surprising. And particularly once we heard the reasons why he wasn’t called, when we had our foreperson of this grand jury speaking about how excited and cool it would have been to be able to look at Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, for 60 seconds, but that they just determined that given the resources and the other witnesses that they had heard of, that they just didn’t need to have any more evidence at that point. It’s concerning that that was the level of diligence that was shown in that decision. And it was surprising, frankly.
ROBERT COSTA (voice over): If former President Trump is indicted, Willis can certainly expect a legal battle from Trump’s lawyers.
JENNIFER LITTLE: We absolutely do not believe that our client did anything wrong. And if any indictments were to come down, those are faulty indictments, we will absolutely fight anything tooth and nail.
ROBERT COSTA: Willis and the district attorney’s office declined to comment.
For FACE THE NATION, Robert Costa, Atlanta.

Can we get a little “freedom of speech”?
Let me guess that DA was planted by former Nazi party member George Soros
Indictment written and published before the grand jury even finishes meeting. How’s that for due process? Governor Kemp..............
Trump’s Constitutional right to Due Process has been violated.
Emily Kohrs - the “giggly wiccan!”
She doesn’t look smart enough to blow her nose.
Donald Trump should change his name and claim he IDENTIFIES as Jack Smith. Dems love it when you IDENTFY as someTHING else. Smith IOS a THING.
This is what a collapsed society & failed nation does to a leader who tried to save it.
She doesn’t look smart enough to blow her nose.
**************
These dumb ass types are all over the corrupt law system and it’ll only get worse in the short term.
And it is a demonic looking nose indeed.
Why not end the suspense and go ahead and leak the verdicts of the petit jury now? We all know that they are going to find Trump guilty.
Certainly DeSantis had something to do with this. Without question/s
Sows don't blow their noses - so she's good.
It’s an elected position. And you’re an idiot
Sounds like someone got word from Democrat Media Brain Central to kill this one, for whatever reason.
If we had an actual justice system this case would be thrown out..but it wont since we make North Korea and Iran look good in comparison
