Circumstances aren't looking good for Fani Willis. The Fulton County, Ga., district attorney who has made a personal crusade out of trying to prosecute Donald Trump now has to give account to a judge regarding the allegations that she is in an improper relationship with one of the special counsels she hired for the Trump case.
"The judge overseeing the election interference case against former president Donald Trump in Georgia has reportedly scheduled a hearing for Feb. 15 to examine recent allegations that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her lead prosecutor 'engaged in an improper relationship and mishandled public money,'” reports Nicole Bennett at WSB Radio.
The Washington Post has a more detailed report explaining that Judge Scott McAfee has ordered Willis to respond in writing to the allegations by Feb. 2, and he has called a hearing about the accusations and scheduled it for Feb. 15.
McAfee is also presiding over the RICO case involving Trump and 18 other co-defendants. Willis is alleged to be in a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, an attorney with little experience in corruption cases whom the DA hired to serve as a special counsel in the Trump case.
"Willis has declined to address the accusations directly so far," reports the Washington Post's Amy Gardner and Holly Bailey. "McAfee’s order appears to be forcing her to do so in televised court proceedings, a development that could at the least be embarrassing for the district attorney and at worst derail the investigation completely."
Willis spoke out indirectly about the allegations in a speech on Sunday at Atlanta's Big Bethel AME Church. She insinuated that the accusations are steeped in racism, and she defended hiring Wade without addressing the reported relationship between them.

Yes. Communism is there.
I’ve seen that up close and personal, when I lived in NM many years ago.
Liberation Theology folks came from Nicaragua to where I lived during the Regan re-election era.
I actually met Contra Suporters who were from Costa Rica but supporting Contras in Nicaragua. The opposition (to the Contras) were Maryknoll nuns They were collecting money for the poor in Nicaragua but also spewing the Liberation Theology poison. Close friend of mine was in one of their meetings, she was Catholic. She was not impressed but had already given them a check when she discovered what they were.
Liberation Theology is Marxism in a thin religious wrapper.
“Religious socialism, Christian socialism, are contradictory terms,” stated Pope Pius XI in Quadragesimo Anno; “no one can be at the same time a good Catholic and a true socialist.”
Unfortunately, the Maryknoll’s went completely off the rails and embraced liberation theology (a/k/a atheistic social justice).
February 15th? Why not sooner?
“McAfee is also presiding over the RICO case involving Trump and 18 other co-defendants. “
That does not feel good.
And since Gov Kemp is trying to sweep it under the rug then he should be answering to charges of corruption as well.
They have got to look like they’re doing something. I’m sure nothing will happen to her just like all the others who get ‘found innocent’, or no big deal. Dems are famous for bringing up something to white-wash, then it goes into the abyss.
"Why hasn't this Governor spoken out about this blatant violation of ethical conduct on the part of Fani Willis? Particularly to quite possibly have committed a crime for the sole purpose of instigating lawfare against President Trump?What is it, Governor? Is nothing so wrong so long as it serves your retribution against the President?
This Governor just last year signed into law the Prosecuting Attorneys Statewide Qualifications Commission which was specifically created to STOP prosecutions that are "Politically motivated"!
So why hasn't Governor Kemp specifically directed Attorney General Chris Carr to open his own investigation into Fani Willis? Why hasn't the state legislature called for this?
This inaction on the part of Georgia Republicans -- the party in power, mind you -- is absolutely reprehensible, and they will pay for it in the next election."
"Turley, meanwhile, told Newsweek via email on Friday that he believes Willis and Wade should recuse themselves from the Georgia election case entirely, adding that Willis' new filing regarding Joycelyn Wade "seemed more cathartic than strategic.""The tenor of the filing only magnifies the concerns that Willis has little separation from the status and interests of Nathan Wade," he said. "She could not have taken a worse approach to the demand for a deposition."
I suspect there were a lot of Dem pols who facilitated and encouraged that arrangement with promises of fame, glory, protection and future riches. All empty promises that will evaporate when the legal tides turn against their ill-conceived schemes to take out Trump.
(Waits patiently for the Clinton era quote of “It’s just SEX! Old white men are made someone else is getting laid” to come back.
There are conflict of interest issues that may require both to recuse. And I also heard that he was not appointed per the requirements of state or county statute. So indictments that he obtained or evidence he acquired by subpoena would be tainted and inadmissible. The Roman motion to dismiss makes that allegation.
Be a racist
Drink Dr. KoolAid!
And he ain't no racist
They would have to find someone else to take the case, study it, make new motions, drop certain charges as being steeped in the previous corruption. It certainly will derail if not delay the case...it will have to!
You are correct.
Man makes his choices from good or bad perspectives. Some of those choices determine life or death.
Many never understand that.
The United States have been blessed many times for a long time.
May it again be so.
Many people get sucked into those lies.
They blame their own condition upon someone or something else, never their own ignorance.
The meaning of Good and Evil should be taught in youth. Some get it later in life, others it just passes by them.
The invading hordes from Central and South America are bringing great evil with them. You can see their arrogance as they march through many countries to grab for promises made by our most evil politicians, and their evil globalist friends. They will come here to vote for more government favors than they ever imagined. Most cannot see the trap set for them.
Along with that are the Cartels. At some point soon we will have to deal with them here. They are already present.
So that puts the trial out another month later.
February 15th? It would seem corruption deserves a more timely review, but not in today’s America, it seems.

Interesting.
Your family history has a lot of similarity to mine.
My ancestors arrived in North (rural) Florida in the 1840’s.
When my great grandfather bought the family farm (1000 acre +/-) after the war, one former slave had remained (his family had all moved to other states), and asked to be allowed to live out his days in the only home he had ever known. He said he would continue to work the fields, and contribute to the farm, as he had always done. My great grandfather and grandfather told him he was welcome to stay.
When my dad was born in 1902, Paps (that’s what they called him) was already an old man, and no longer worked the fields. As dad grew up, one of his and his older brother’s chores was to walk down the little dirt lane taking food to Paps. Whenever Paps got sick, dad’s family would care for him, and fetch the doctor.
Dad was around 14 when Paps died, and he said Paps was family and they cried at his passing.
Blacks who live in this area today, are largely ancestors of former slaves, and whites who’s families settled here back in the 1800’s, have close friendships. There are a number of black females I will hug whenever we see each other. So far we have been able to escape the hate so prevalent in cities.
For my kids/grandkids its just really normal behavior, as it’s all they have ever known.
