Yes I was pleasantly surprised about the judge after his ignoring Fanny’s behavior...

“The White House and the DA’s office were in communication.”

Just trying to save “democracy”, you see.

When will something be determined, or was it?

I almost dropped my Confederate flag when the witness today - Bradley I think his name is - decided it was in his best interest to testify that he might tell lies about his friend in a case of national importance but that he couldn’t remember for sure if he did tell lies.

It looks like both sides can argue that Bradley has been impeached and is of no use to either side.

Still, anyone can see what corruption is afoot in Georgia. Big time.

Any time you get a ‘witness’ into a memory hole (I don’t remember, I don’t recall), you know that the bomber is over the target. I watched as well, and I thought that the State managed to corner him into the fact that he is just incompetent counsel, or outright perjurying himself. Either way, Fani got her fanny handed to her, in my honest opinion.

How did Bradley ever get a law degree?

I suppose I can’t fault anyone here for their judge suspicion. Just look at Judge Engoron for an infamous example. But it’s been my experience that most judges honestly want to do their best to act justly and have their decision genuinely based on the law and the facts. I think federal judges are more prone to imperial syndrome as they have to work through kissing up to high powered politicans . So I expect this judge will do the right thing, as disqualification is plainly the right decision here. Until I see him disregard his oath, I’m assuming he will rule properly

This must mean that black democrats are lying... As usual.

All of these people involved have their own stupidity to blame. They’re supposed to be highly educated lawyers, but they’re just dumb little thieves.

A judge I once knew long ago told me that he preferred judge alone trials more than jury trials because it was then that he could put his experience, knowledge and skill to work in judging the credibility of witnesses. He said the task included not only listening carefully to what the witness said but an intense examination of the entire demeanor of the witness in the witness chair. He may have been bragging some, but he claimed based on having observed hundreds of witnesses in his time, to be able to spot deception and a liar almost immediately. He said it matured on him like a sixth sense. I can’t help but think that the Atlanta judge is as capable of spotting the BS being peddled in the Willis/Wade Fulton County hearing.

Yes, very evasive. They learned very well from the witch queen Hitlery…I don’t recall I don’t remember like what with a cloth etc. etc. Because they could not draw the truth out of his freaking mouth I saw it as a tiny win for fani butt! But I got a hand it to them they stick closer than booger glue! That’s the way I viewed it. And the judge is totally corrupted as hades too! I thought maybe there was still honor in the judicial system. I hope I’m wrong though. But I doubt it.

I think the best question was from one of the last attorneys who asked, “In all your communications with Ashleigh Merchant, did he ever use the word speculation? He had to answer, “No”.

Game, set, match.

Georgie’s Ghettopotamuses own the judges and their courts.

I think McAfee was seen as a rising star while Willis had flat-lined in her career before going private and running for an office for power she clearly wasn't going to get promoted into.

I posted this timeline of their careers a week ago:


Comparing the work histories of both Judge Scott McAfee and Fani Willis, it looks to me like McAfee was the rising star and his stint under Willis was incidental.

Consider:

  1. Willis graduated from Emory University School of Law in 1996. Her first job was as a solicitor prosecuting misdemeanors and city ordinance violations.

  2. McAfee graduated from the University of Georgia School of Law, cum laude, in 2013, interning for Georgia Supreme Court justice Keith R. Blackwell in his senior year. McAfee's first assignment was an assistant district attorney in the Barrow County, Georgia, Piedmont Judicial Circuit.

  3. Willis spent 16 years as a prosecutor in the Fulton County district attorney's office, eventually leading the complex trial division.

  4. In 2014-2015 (+18 years from graduation), Willis became an assistant district attorney, prosecuting 12 Atlanta Public School teachers for changing answers entered by students to inflate the scores of state administered standardized tests.

  5. McAfee joined the office of the district attorney in Fulton County, Georgia in 2015 (+2 years after graduating). Between 2015-2018, he worked on the early stages of criminal cases, and was promoted to working as a prosecutor in the complex trial division (under Fani Willis).

  6. In 2018 (+22), Willis went into private practice. She ran for a seat on the Fulton County Superior Court, and lost.

  7. In 2019 (+6), McAfee was appointed as an assistant United States Attorney for the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

  8. In 2019 (+23), Willis became Chief Municipal Judge for South Fulton, Georgia.

  9. In 2021 (+8), Georgia governor Brian Kemp appointed McAfee as the state inspector general.

  10. In 2020 (+24), Willis was elected district attorney for Fulton County.

  11. In December 2022 (+9), Gov. Kemp appointed McAfee to the Fulton County Superior Court.

It's pretty clear from comparing the timelines of their careers, that McAfee spent two years early in his career in the division headed by Willis. He was then fast-tracked into higher positions in the judiciary departments.

Willis looks like her career stalled after spending 22 years in the Fulton County District Attorney's office. She left to pursue private practice and lower court judgeships. Willis ran for DA against her former boss (and emasculated black man) Paul Howard, Jr. and won.

Now, here's the real kick-in-the-pants:

  1. During the campaign, Howard was accused of violating public disclosure laws when he used his two nonprofits to funnel $195,000 of Atlanta city funds to his personal bank account without disclosing his role as CEO. Howard later admitted to the public disclosure violations and agreed to pay a $6,500 fine.

  2. Also during the campaign, Howard was accused of sexual harassment, abuse of power, and creating a hostile work environment by Cathy Carter, a paralegal and records supervisor who worked under Howard's tenure for 15 years. Carter claimed that Howard sexually harassed her and coerced her into engaging in intimate activities, including encounters within his office at the Fulton County Courthouse. Howard was found not guilty in December 2023.
It seems like the apple doesn't fall far from the tree over at the Fulton County District Attorney's office.
I guess it's a "black thing" in Fulton County to funnel public funds for one's personal benefit, and to run a hostile work environment where staffers are expected to sleep with the boss.

That Bradley ‘lawyer’ is a real piece of work. EVERY question he got the had to stop, think and then say “I don’t recall.”

A lawyer who can’t remember anything. What good is that? Who would hire this incompetent excuse of a court officer?

He’s a liar just like Wade and Willis. I’m waiting to see just how this judge doesn’t disqualify all of them.

The witness did the job the State wanted him to do: stonewall, pretend to know nothing about Willis and Wade, plead poor memory,etc. They wanted him to completely wreck his own credibility so that nothing he said to Ms. Merchant, in court, or anywhere ever can be credited.

What do they have on Bradley that was worth destroying himself personally and professionally? Must be something even worse than that. Rape charges? Death squad? His mama held hostage in a barn somewhere?

The State believes a lack of absolute proof that the W-W affair began before Wade was hired will save them legally. Unfortunately for them, their scorched earth campaign to suppress the truth put the “appearance of corruption” in everyone’s face front and center.

McAfee can save the County million$ and all concerned from much further embarrassment by dismissing Willis, Wade, and the entire corrupt case now.

They’ll try to protect Fani, and even if they can’t, they won’t drop the case.

https://redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2024/02/27/theres-more-than-one-dnc-plant-in-fani-willis-office-and-this-one-is-married-to-a-top-ga-politician-n2170678

“There’s More Than One DNC Plant in Fani Willis’ Office, and This One Is Married to a Top GA Politician”

“In May 2022, right around the time Willis seated a grand jury to investigate Donald Trump, a new part-time employee showed up at the office. Her title was innocuous enough: Records and Documents Supervisor. But this wasn’t your average bureaucratic employee, and she didn’t work as a records and documents supervisor. The new hire, Pallavi Purkayastha, is a DNC Member, one of the top leaders in the Georgia Democrat Party, and in reality performs spokesperson/comms duties. Indeed, she is the spokesperson cited in response to a recent court filing by defendant Michael Roman alleging an improper romantic relationship between Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade.

In addition, at the time she was hired she was the fiancee of (and is now married to) Charlie Bailey, the 2022 Democrat nominee for Lieutenant Governor, and chairs a local PAC called Red Clay Democrats.”

The White House and the DA's office were in communication. And now there's a report that an operative was planted in the DA's office by the White House.

Watergate was child's play compared with what is happening now.

I think all three, Willis, Wade and Bradley must have slept right through the ethics course in law school.
