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.

Everybody in Washington is starring at the Justice Department out the corner of their eye and thinking Jimmy Hoffa.

Okay, so Jordan and company exposes it all, then what? No one in DC, especially the Congressional House under the puke McCarthy, is going to do anything. Legally, what can they do? This country is gone, most just don’t realize it yet. The Obozo, Soros and the NWO/WEF evil bstrds are doing exactly what the Obozo said they were going to do re his “fundamentally changing how America works”. Now all that’s left is for the baby boomers to die off.

too little.
too late.
and so what? what power or force can or does this apply to the rogue democrat and RINO DA’s that the uniparty supports, protects, promotes and authenticates by its ongoing RINO/traitor practice of not so secret approval.

The uniparty HATES we the people, they hated the tea party, they hate those who expose Communists and RINOs who all feed off the Uniparty tit... and gleefully it now shows. They flaunt it because they have no reverence, respect or fear of the people they are elected to represent...

Do not answer this rhetorical question: what is it they fear? Certainly not God. not the people. but apparently the deepstate is their God, their only true constituent...

We are not on the slippery slope. Our republic has died on the fall into the abyss... and is largely unaware yet that we are but the lingering ghost of a dead corpse rotting in the bottom of a great canyon.

Our constitution and votes cannot save us.

Only God can resurrect this valley of dead and dry bones.

Kemp is a dog, who is in collusion with Fani. His fanny needs to be run out of office.

God Bless Jim Jordan.

~~~

He does far more than almost everyone, but I hope his powers aren’t symbolic. If the DNC culprits who are well practiced involved at all, these people are smart enough to back-channel.

I’m happy to see this.

But, as we know, with separations of powers in our government, Jim Jordan has no authority over the DA of Fulton County Georgia. He has no power to fire her, or sanction her in any way.

Well, in a legal case, the Big Dog is the judge, who may very well frown heavily on such a move.

He should have included the question of possible conspiracy.

Because it is in fact a conspiracy and abuse of power to aid a conspiracy.

You can cut the defeatist attitudes with a knife around here. Think I’ll spend my time elsewhere as it’s getting old gang. When you ask God to bless seemingly the only cat in Congress fighting the good fight and losers come out of the woodwork to doubt a true patriot from Ohio, I suppose it’s time to move on. See Ya!

"He thinks he is going to be President in 2029."

I'll probably be dead by then, but if he ever ended up being the GOP nominee, and I am still around, whether Trump is dead by then or not, I'll still write Trump's name in for President.
