House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, has launched an oversight inquiry related to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her officer, just hours before President Trump is expected to be arraigned in Georgia.

Jordan wrote on X, “Was Fulton County DA Fani Willis working with Jack Smith? Was she communicating with the Executive Branch? Were any federal funds used in the investigation of President Trump?”

Attached to his comments, Rep. Jordan included screenshots of his letter to DA Willis, citing the 41-count indictment against President Trump and 18 of his allies and associates, some of whom included a former White House Chief of Staff and a former U.S. DOJ official.

“Your indictment and prosecution implicate substantial federal interests, and the circumstances surrounding your actions raise serious concerns about whether they are politically motivated,” Jordan wrote.

He cited the forewoman of the grand jury in Georgia, Emily Kohr, who went on an “unusual media tour about her excitement at the prospect of subpoenaing President Trump and getting to swear him in” earlier this year.

Additionally, Jordan noted that last week, the Fulton County court posted charges potentially aimed at Trump on their website hours before the actual indictment formally came down.

“The timing of this prosecution reinforces concerns about your motivation,” Jordan continued.

He highlighted the following issues that he was concerned about:

Jordan said that the criminal prosecution of federal officers “raises serious concerns under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution and poses a threat to the operations of the Federal Government.”

He included a “weighty” list of federal interests at stake in this investigation, and requested documents and communications related to the DA’s use of federal funds, potential communications and documents related to Special Counsel Jack Smith, and documents and communications connected to the DA’s office and Executive Branch officials in this investigation.

The poster girl for affirmative action, Fulton County
DA Fani Willis, charged Trump with RICO and conspiracy
for daring to use if, and, and but in a sentence.


Because Pres Trump’s priorities are unquestionably (a) the interests of the American people and (b) the safety and security of the country, his phone call to Zelensky was professional, cordial, no threats, no pressure and NO quid pro quo (as lying scumbag Adam Schiff and the Democrats want you to believe).

OTOH, unelected Hunter Biden blithely met with the “impeach Trump” Congressional team......
as if the filthy cokehead whoremonger was entitled to a say in impeaching Trump.
More likely the nogood Hunter was a plant, to make sure daddy got a say.

Remember, at the same time,
<><>the FBI had the filthy Hunter’s “laptop from hell”
<><>verifying electronically codifed numerous crimes WRT the criminal Bidens in Ukraine
<><>elected Democrats were persecuting Trump with a falsified impeachment investigation.
<><>as Pelosi and Schiff lied on the House floor about Trump’s official phone call to Zelensky.

He’s right on it. He’s set his talking points another pitch higher. But that’s all that will happen from him. Bla bla bla bla bla

Suprised with all of the lawyers she is charging that (AFAIK) none of them have started to sue her for various things.

Even if some may ultimately deemed “frivolous” a bunch of separate suits against her might make things a bit more interesting.

that’s a lot of fani to probe. The Lewis Clark expedition explored much less territory.

It means in 4 or 5 years after exhasutive hearings and inquiries..

They will decide to do nothing and publish a harshly worded memo.

She has absolute prosecutorial immunity from lawsuit.

The Supreme Court created the absolute immunity in 1976.

I wonder who will volunteer to perform an internal probe, venturing to go where no man’s been before?
