Lawmakers can subpoena DA Fani Willis for information on case against Pres.-elect Trump, court rules

FULTON COUNTY, Ga. — A judge has ruled that the Georgia state Senate can subpoena Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis as part of a inquiry into whether she has engaged in misconduct during her prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump but is giving Willis the chance to contest whether lawmakers’ demands are overly broad.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Shukura Ingram filed the order Monday, telling Willis she has until Jan. 13 to submit arguments over whether the subpoenas seek legally shielded or confidential information. Ingram wrote that the would issue a final order later saying what Willis had to respond to.

A state appeals court earlier this month removed Willis from the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump and others, citing an “appearance of impropriety” that might not typically warrant such a removal. The Georgia Court of Appeals panel said in a 2-1 ruling that because of the romantic relationship Willis had with special prosecutor Nathan Wade “this is the rare case in which disqualification is mandated and no other remedy will suffice to restore public confidence in the integrity of these proceedings.”

Willis’ office immediately filed a notice of intent to ask the Georgia Supreme Court to review the decision.

The Republican-led Senate committee sent subpoenas to Willis in August seeking to compel her to testify during its September meeting and to produce scores of documents. The committee was formed earlier this year to examine allegations of “various forms of misconduct” by Willis, an elected Democrat, during her prosecution of Trump and others over their efforts to overturn the former president’s 2020 election loss in Georgia.

It’s an obvious case of racist oppression. That’s what they’ll say next.

She will find 25 ways to not cooperate. And in the end the majority of the data will just mysteriously disappear.

The walls are closing in on Fanni and judges are feeling less pressure to give the swamp special treatment.

True. Oppression of white people by a black DA and prosecutor.

You may be thinking of a different “strong black women prosecutor”. Fani Willis is in Fulton County, Georgia. The RICO case. It’s the Georgia Senate that wants to question her.

“I don’t recall.”
“I don’t remember.”

She won’t provide squat...or, maybe only squat.
