They better get off their asses and do it quickly while it matters. Set an example, like the Democrats do. It will not be tolerated.

This Kari Lake affair is a real eye opener.
If a politician takes ANY kind of bribe... money, sex, a favor... they are beholden for life. This is why so many conservative politicians suddenly swerve left for no apparent reason and vote or behave in a crazy fashion.
Be it a supreme court chief justice, a speaker of the house, or someone on a special investigative committee.

Georgia Representative Charlice Byrd (R-Woodstock—from Cherokee County)
plans to introduce H.R. 872, seeking to impeach Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Byrd is alleging she misused her office for political gains
rather than for the pursuit of justice as was intended.

Byrd is particularly critical of Willis for indicting Republicans for simply
exercising their First Amendment rights to question election results.

Questioning election results is a practice Democrats have frequently engaged in after losing significant races including those of Democrats Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, and the infamous Stacey Abrams race.

Those who live in glass houses should be cautious in undertaking the throwing of stones. The insufferable self-righteousness of this leftist hack blinded her to the notion that every single piece of her investigation and prosecution needed to be above board and beyond reproach. All the more so because she is fully aware that her case has no merit, is unconstitutional , and is just lawfare. Undoubtedly she thought this would be her springboard to higher office. I look forward to some well-deserved serious dragging of her through the mud. F around and find out, miss girl power

What exposes Willis’ true motives-—which she didnt share with church members-—is that Willis hired a PR type firm for $10,000 to monitor her media coverage just days before announcing the probe into former President Donald Trump (according to invoices and emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation).

<><>Willis announced in a letter sent to four state officials, including Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, on Feb. 11, 2021 that she had opened a criminal probe into Trump over his alleged attempts to influence the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. This move also might earn her tangible rewards since it endeared her to Joe Biden.

<><>However, just days earlier, her office contracted with Critical Mention, a New York-based media monitoring service designed for tracking mentions and metrics such as the publicity value that would showcase her burgeoning political potential to a person like Joe Biden.

Atlanta-based criminal defense attorney and legal analyst Philip Holloway told the DCNF that prosecutors are required “to be objective and to wield their great power without bias and certainly not to use the criminal justice system as a ladder to political success.”

The documents show Willis’ deep interest in tracking media coverage of herself, and her office, as she launched an investigation into the former president, knowing full well, that in charging Trump, she had struck political gold.

The first invoice charging $10,000 for the annual contract is dated Feb. 8, 2021. Emails show DA Willis was in discussion with the company as early as Feb. 1.

“We are getting more coverage via your name than by title,” said what appears to be a Fulton County employee in a Feb. 2021 email, referencing Willis. “This graph has the coverage value for the last week at over $150 million.”

“I ran a report for mentions of ‘Fulton County District Attorney’ worldwide for the last seven days. Critical Mention (the PR monitoring platform I told you guys about that we contract for last week) gives a ‘publicity value’ to the coverage, which is meant to reflect what it would cost to buy paid advertising equivalent to the penetration of the media coverage,” the email continues.

“While it can be a bit exaggerated, it says in the last week we’ve gotten media coverage equivalent to $67 million in advertising. Even half of that value would be staggering.”
Critical Mention’s website pitches its service to “PR, Communications and marketing agencies” who use the platform to “to help clients track earned media coverage in real-time, analyze campaigns and grow their brands......

.......and, in Willis’ case, as a way to advance and gauge her political bona fides to Joe Biden.........

Only difference is that NY's Assembly and Senate are majority Dem, progressive Dem.

It seems that there was a heavy truck of some kind involved in the fender bender resulting in the explosion that vaporized Governor Kemp’s future SIL, but one defers to any of our friends from Georgia who can help us out with that part of it.

will they actually investigate objectively? Or will they say “Sure she was guilty, BUT she didn’t — INTEND — to break the law (ala hillery clinton)- therefore charges are dismissed”?
