As a lead prosecutor in her Georgia state case against Donald Trump, Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis hired Nathan Wade, a married man with whom, despite being given every opportunity to do so, she has not denied having an affair.
He is unqualified, apparently never having handled a major felony case.
She claims to have paid Wade at the same rate she paid the other lead prosecutors. In fact, she paid one of the other prosecutors $100 per hour less than Wade, despite the other prosecutor's incomparably better credentials.
She paid her apparent paramour in excess of $650,000 of taxpayer money, then went on vacations with him, and there is evidence that he paid for some costs of those vacations with the funds received from Willis.
So, how would you describe that sordid situation? Why, as a "little thing."
At least, if you're Michael Steele, the former RNC chairman turned member of the disgraced Lincoln Project.

Good post that cuts through the ignorance and makes a reasoned argument - thanks!
I “lived” in maryland when steele was a “thing”. Apparently, he has learned nothing and he remains “a thing”.
It must be hard for his good looking wife to see her husband sleep with a dog for money.
Truth hurts.
Naggers = People who annoy you.
Particularly since she’s seen none of the money.
Virtue signalers annoy me. Is Fury a nagger?
LOL. No, not at all. Just trying to counter the ignorance. It's an ongoing endeavor!
”Laz said a bad word, Miss Landers.”
Wahhhh! LOL!
Compromised to the gills, I presume.
“ Who is dumbest Steele, Juan or Geraldo”
It’s too early on a Monday for a question that difficult.
It’s ‘BIG FANNY’ Willias ... damn-it
And Einstein is no longer alive to assess this question for the ages. lol
Affirmative action has filled our workplaces and institution with unqualified lazy people.
Were Fani Willis a private citizen, her affair with Nathan Wade would indeed be a “little thing”. But she is not. District Attorneys, and other public officials must abide by ethics and conflict of interest laws, regulations, and policies.
We can be reasonably sure that Fani Willis violated numerous requirements regarding:
Solicition, competitive bidding, and selection of contractors;
Appropriations, finance, and spending;
Fraud via diverting funds obtained/designated for other purposes, specifically federal “Covid” funds provided for clearing backlogs of “normal” criminal cases — not ginning up new massive political cases.
Contractor qualifications;
Determining appropriate contractor compensation levels. These must be commensurate with qualifications and what others are paid for similar work.;
Personal/sexual relationships with subordinates and contractors;
Receiving materially significant benefits from contractors;
Coordinating the timing of contracts to benefit contractors personal legal calendars (i.e., helping Wade evade alimony by dating his contract just after the anticipated revenue from it would have been on the table in his divorce case);
Misuse of her office for political purposes;
(Likely) failures to properly review and control contractor invoices, resulting in excess compensation being issued;
More that a proper investogation would discover.
All the above is not a little thing. If Fulton County and Georgia are to have any credibility, they must throw Willis out of office and disbarred for these Great Big Things.
Who in the Republican establishment was responsible for Steele’s rise to the top of the party? I’ve always been curious about this one.
In contrast, I was stationed at Fort Bliss from 81-84. The Base Commander was caught having an affair with his secretary. Within a span of 24 hours, he was relieved of his position, forcibly retired, and removed from his quarters on base.
Like BSNBC Joe, his words are like farts.
