Fani Willis Blew It: Trump Georgia Case Officially on Hold
PJ Media ^ | 6 June 2024 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 06/06/2024 1:52:29 PM PDT by Rummyfan

On Wednesday, the Georgia Court of Appeals made a decisive move in the racketeering case involving former President Donald Trump. With an official order, the court has halted all proceedings.

It's because of the pending ruling on the defendants' motion to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the case. The appeals court directed Judge Scott McAfee hit the breaks on the case until this matter is resolved.

This decision comes in the wake of concerns surrounding Willis' impartiality. In March, McAfee ruled that despite "a significant appearance of impropriety” due to her romantic involvement with special prosecutor Nathan Wade — which included her giving him preferential treatment including inflated pay, joint vacations, and potential misuse of state funds — Willis could continue her case against Donald Trump and 18 others. The ruling came with the condition that she fire Wade. She didn’t have to; he resigned.

However, McAfee's decision to grant immediate review enabled Trump and eight co-defendants to petition the Georgia Court of Appeals for consideration before trial. On Monday, the Georgia appeals court scheduled oral arguments for Oct. 4 for the disqualification of Willis. Between the scheduling of the disqualification hearing and the pausing of the trial, there’s no way this case will not go to trial before the 2024 presidential election as Democrats had hoped.

And now we know why there were so many suits launched at Trump in different venues, they knew each of them had a high risk of not completing before the election.

In certain organizations - communist regimes, criminal organizations, etc. - they have no tolerance for failure. Once you’ve failed them and have outlived your usefulness, you become persona non grata, if you’re lucky. It will be interesting to see if Fanni gets thrown under the bus now that she’s no longer useful to the deep state.

One of my favorite cartoons.

What is exasperating to me, is this pending case of presidential immunity with the Supreme Court. I believe they have to (should?, whatever) find that presidents have immunity while in office. The impeachment process is the check/balance on the president’s actions, not the fear of trial after his term ends. And if the SC reaches the “right decision” then Fanni Willis, Alvin Bragg and two Jack Smith cases are eliminated. So just do it.

“Fani Willis blew it”

She undoubtedly did…among other things.

Breaks happen when you fall down concrete stairs.

Brakes are the little things that stop cars.

That is our spelling lesson for the day.

>> I assume the last line should have read “will go to trial before the 2024 presidential election” rather than “will not go to trial before the 2024 presidential election.”

I believe you’re right. That’s one way to fix it.

Proofreading is a lost rat.

Black hood people always think they’re so smart when they try to run their ‘games’ on white people who they all think are stupid suckers. That these two thought they could run their little ‘game’ on everyone, including the state of Georgia is a hoot for all time. That picture illustrates very nicely what a stupid little whore fat Fani is.
