Georgia lawmakers react to judge's ruling allowing Fani Willis to stay on Trump case: 'Wholly insufficient'
Fox News ^ | 3/15/24 | Andrew Mark Miller, Brandon Gillespie

Reactions from Georgia lawmakers poured in on Friday after a judge ruled that embattled Fulton County DA Fani Willis could remain on the case investigating alleged election interference by former President Donald Trump.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee issued a ruling Friday that Willis, who was accused of an improper romantic relationship that she attempted to cover up with special counsel Nathan Wade, could remain on the case if she fired Wade which prompted pushback from Georgia Republicans.

"The ruling by Judge McAfee seems to clearly identify impropriety between the DA and Mr. Wade," Georgia Republican State Rep. Josh Bonner told Fox News Digital. "Unfortunately, it does not address the purely partisan nature of the case brought by a rogue District Attorney more interested in scoring political points than prosecuting criminals in Fulton County."

"Judge McAfee clearly found significant impropriety between Fani Willis and Nathan Wade," Georgia Republican Lt. Gov Burt Jones told Fox News Digital. "If Fani Willis acted in the best interest of her constituents, she would resign immediately, but we know her inflated sense of self won’t allow that to happen. Regardless, the Georgia Senate investigatory committee will continue its work on behalf of the Georgia taxpayer to hold her accountable."

Georgia Republican State Senator Jason Anavitarte told Fox News Digital it is "indisputable" that Willis "willfully concealed" her relationship with Wade.

"Rather than owning up to the relationship, admitting poor judgement and removing SADA Wade from this case as soon as it was revealed, DA Willis doubled down and spent the better part of 3 months continuing to obfuscate if not downright lie to the court," Anavitarte said.

The Fulton County Courthouse is a cesspool of corruption. The governor needs to send in the national guard to get it back under control.

The Judge is only following the plan...investigate, accuse, point out ALL the irregularities AND THEN:

MAKE EXCUSES FOR THE CORRUPTION:

First Comey with Hillary
Then Hur with Biden
Now McAfee with Willis

THAT’s the PLAN.

The Judge puts self-preservation first, over doing the right thing. Most MSM so called Journalists and Reporters do the same thing. They are all worried they will throw their careers down the drain.

How can any right leaning citizen expect a fair trial in blue parts of the country?

It’s time for a national divorce. I don’t care how it happens.

It’s seems like there is no reason to swear to tell the truth anymore.

... Fani Willis are far from over and are enough to get her disbarred:

she still needs to explain her tax-paid meetings at the White House>/N>

her contacts with Jack Smith,

her contacts w/ the J6 committee Trump haters, Pete from Shawnee Mission insightfully adds:

She leaked grand jury testimony to Michael Isakoff for his book.

she had hold of an illegally recorded conversation

she made this illegality one of the pillars of the Trump case

a GA County DA cannot immunize someones testimony over a violation of FL state law.

a DA poisoning the Jury Pool is unheard of and she went to church to do the poisoning.

nice list Liz...

“ Can the Governor intervene and remove her stupid ass?”

Wasn’t it Gov. Kemp who appointed the judge? It certainly appears that the top tier of the executive branch of the State of Georgia is and has been up to their eyeballs in the election malfeasance of 2020 & 2022, and the continuing efforts to obfuscate and conceal those facts from ever seeing the light of day.

The old traditional, Christian, capitalist, freedom loving USA is dead, dead as a door-nail.

The military will NOT save it. It has been taken over by the deep state communist.

Trolls come on this board and are shocked when I say Washington DC needs to be nuked, destroyed, vaporized, exterminated. They say it’s so unpatriotic, we still got good people in the Pentagon, FBI, CIA, NSA, DOJ, DHS, etc. I respond, no we do not.

Sandam and Gomorra was destroyed because Lot could not find a single righteous, God fearing individual, in the entire city. It’s the same with DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Denver, St. Luis, Seattle, Portland, Los Angela’s, Las Vegas and all the other 30 most populated hell hole cities in America.

Time to pull the plug and burn it all to the ground. /spit

“Fani’s continued presence probably helps us.”

No, it doesn’t. There is no justice system in the US. Democratic judges are not judges, they are ideological functionaries.

It is decisions like this that will put the US into a brutal and bloody civil war. Maybe by as early as November of this year.

“ I suspect Scott McAfee has gotten a few recent phone calls from some fraternity brothers that he has not heard from in very long time.”

McAfee kicked the can down the road. Trump is going to appeal if convicted and then Willis will have to prove her case again, but this time with additional evidence presented by the Trump Team. McAfee did what was politically expedient. He left an opening for the Trump Team while appeasing his liberal allies.

One of the commentators on CNN of all places said it best. Its like the cops bust a couple of bank robbers in the safe at a bank and decide to arrest one of them.......

If Wade was having an improper relationship, who was he having it with?
