Fulton County, Georgia district attorney Fani Willis, who brought charges against former President Donald Trump on election interference, claims allegations brought against her of having an "improper" romantic relationship with a prosecutor were made because they are Black.
Court documents filed earlier this month say Willis hired special prosecutor Nathan Wade, her alleged partner, to prosecute Trump and benefited financially from the relationship in the form of lavish vacations the two went on using funds his firm received for working the case.
For the first time since the allegations were made, Willis spoke on the matter at the Big Bethel AME Church in Atlanta on Sunday.
"They only attacked one," she said. "First thing they say, ‘Oh, she’s gonna play the race card now.’
"But no God, isn’t it them that’s playing the race card when they only question one," Willis asked.
Willis had remained mum in public on the matter, though she still has neither confirmed nor denied the allegations brought against her and Wade, who was involved in bringing an indictment against Trump for election interference.
Although she never mentioned Wade by name during the speech on Sunday, she referred to the man as "a great friend and a great lawyer."
Trump’s co-defendant, Michael Roman, accused Willis and Wade of having an "improper" and "clandestine" affair at the same time appointments were being made for the 2020 election interference case.
Roman was a former official on Trump’s 2020 campaign and argued about the integrity of the case being compromised because of the affair, last week in court, asking for the charges against Roman to be dropped.

Every single criticism will always be rebutted by a claim of racism. She judges based on the color of one’s skin...because obviously she has not content to her character.
Of course she does…..
RACISM! The first refuge of a scoundrel.
No, you azz’ole witch! It’s based on EVIDENCE! Only YOU are bringing up race, Fani!
The same publicity would be given to anyone who pulled this crap. The difference most would not go on the offensive , they be getting their PR together instead of whining about the race card.
I have limited legal understanding and no background with it.
Does anyone here with more knowledge think this revelation of improper actions by Willis and Wade fatally compromise this case against President Trump and others, leading to dismissal with prejudice before election time?
Trump being a white man is the reason she was going after him. It’s about Race Fani. Always about race. And you are a racist.
She should be arrested for embezzlement and misuse of state funds just for starters.
Gee, who didn’t see this coming. These people are so predictable.
When you’re in trouble, play the race card!!
🤣
Is she saying all black women are pigs? Pretty sure that’s not true. She is though.
Sorry, not sorry. Race card declined.
It is noted that she didn’t deny the accusations!
Why aren’t both of these Criminals in JAIL YET???
Unless they’re not the right kind of people of your own race.
Remember “the black face of white supremacy?”
Then there’s Clarence Thomas, and Candice Owens, and Diamond and Silk, and Byron Donalds...
