As Georgia prosecutor pursued Trump, Biden DOJ 'invited' her to get lucrative grant, memos show
Just the News ^ | 2/25/26 | Steven Richards and John Solomon

The Biden Justice Department "invited" Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to apply for a lucrative sole-source grant in 2022 at the same time that she was pursuing an election interference investigation against Donald Trump, the eventual GOP competitor to President Joe Biden, internal correspondence obtained by Just the News reveals.

“I want to document your recognition of our progress and services provided with dynamic partners, as we complete sole source steps for our new grant award, a grant in which you invited us to apply,” Willis wrote to Justice Department Senior Policy Advisor Scott Pestridge in the Office of Justice Programs in December 2022.

The district attorney was highlighting the Justice Department’s 2022 Office of Justice Programs Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative grant, from which her office ultimately received $2,000,000 to implement its programs, agency records show.

Willis' office given millions by Biden DOJ at the same time she was prosecuting Trump That award, which was opened in April 2022 as a competitive grant, appears to have been provided to Fulton County as the “sole source,” according to the district attorney. The Justice Department defines a sole source procurement as “noncompetitive,” meaning no other entity competed against Fulton for the award.

This award, which Willis said her office would use for community programs dedicated to ensure “at-risk” youth do not fall into crime or help them reintegrate into society if they do, was just a fraction of the more than $18,000,000 in funding the Justice Department’s Office of Justice Policy gave the Fulton prosecutor’s office from the time Willis took office in 2021 until 2024.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

It's crazy that Fani Willis is not only NOT in jail, but is still the prosecutor for Fulton County, Georgia.

“Beyond the grant details, the documents show that Willis’ office coordinated extensively with the Biden Justice Department and White House as well as Democrats on the House Jan. 6 investigative committee as she built a failed criminal case against President Donald Trump and his allies, Just the News reported on Wednesday.

The award of the noncompetitive grant for Willis came while her office was preparing that case and while federal prosecutors were investigating Trump under similar pretexts. “

“...This must be addressed. It is astonishing....”

Fani will never be charged or punished. This lard arse checks all the boxes and is one of their sacred and holy ghettopotomai. Same with peekaboo James in NY.
However, those in the DOJ at the time should be dealt with....BIGLY, but highly unlikely that it will happen as well.

Beyond the shocking payoff-—Biden rewarding Willis with tax dollars-—the new documents suggest that Biden knew Willis was a loser and needed his help. Biden made sure Willis coordinated extensively with the Biden Justice Department, the Biden White House as well as House Democrats wrt the Jan. 6 investigation.

Even after all the aid and comfort Biden lavished on her, stupid Willis failed to build a criminal case against Pres Trump and his allies (ace newsmen at “Just the News” reported on Wednesday).

The award of the noncompetitive grant of tax dollars for Willis came while she was preparing the Ga case and while federal prosecutors were investigating Trump under similar pretexts.

Willis’ gross stupidity was evident when she actually put in writing significant details wrt Biden paying her off to do a job on Trump.......evidence at its finest.

Haven't seen this breaking news story posted here yet. There's a Fox News video included with Brett Baier.

BREAKING: FBI Director Kash Patel just FIRED 10 Deep State agents involved in seizing the PHONE RECORDS of Kash Patel and now-White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles before Trump began his 2nd term

The record collecting apparently took place in 2022 and 2023. This story has been posted by other news agencies.

I don't post articles anymore after Jim Robinson was sued, and most times articles like this are posted multiple times, but I've been scrolling through FR all night, and haven't seen it.

This means the Biden DoJ funded Willis' prosecution of Donald Trump.
