Georgia Republicans have removed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' biggest threat.
State Senator Colton Moore announced on Thursday that the state GOP voted to oust him over his calls to defund and investigate the district attorney in the wake of her sweeping RICO indictment that named former President Donald Trump and 18 of his allies as co-conspirators in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
"Today's removal is a direct result of me calling on my Republican colleagues in the Senate to do their job and sign onto an emergency session to investigate Fani Willis," Moore said in a statement shared with Newsweek. "The Georgia Constitution clearly outlines the legislature's power to call an emergency session to investigate a judicial officer. After urging my Republican Senate colleagues to join me...they responded by acting like children and throwing me out of the caucus."
Days after Willis indicted Trump, Moore asked Governor Brian Kemp to call for a special session and bring legislators back to the state Capitol to review Willis' actions in the probe and "determine if they warrant impeachment." Under state law, there can only be a special session at the governor's request or if three-fifths of both legislative chambers sign a letter demanding it. While Republicans have the majority in both chambers, their majorities are not large enough to clear the three-fifths threshold.
Kemp has also signaled his refusal to take such action, saying in August that while Georgia law allows for the removal of local prosecutors who violate their oath, "Up to this point, I have not seen any evidence that DA Willis' actions, or lack thereof, warrant action by the Prosecuting Attorney Oversight Commission."

A certain core of Georgia Republicans - not politically reliable.
All secretly enlisted in Stacey Abram’s army, and keen to do her bidding.
White guilt, much?

The Republican Party in Georgia needs an enema.
And to think we defended this hell hole when the MLB took the ALL Star game away.

Swing states are called so for a reason.
Just corrupt.
Something stinks in Georgia.

kemp & raff in up to their gills in the georgia swamp.
kemp was sent a message through his daughter to keep hands off.
So, dumb question: What does this actually mean? Is he out as State Senator or j7st out of the GOP? If so, where does that leave him?
Considering the University of Georgia aided and abetted the firebombing of pregnancy centers. I don’t see how any conservative can support the University of Georgia in anything. The professors were never punished.
Democrats and Democrats posing as Republicans
