Fani Willis Gets Possible Bad News From Supreme Court

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis received some possibly bad news on Monday following a ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in Donald Trump's presidential immunity case in relation to his federal election interference case, according to legal experts...

Following the decision, some legal experts speculated on what impact the ruling could have on the case in Fulton County, Georgia. Trump was indicted by Willis last August in a 2020 election interference case following a phone call he had with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in January 2021 when he asked him to "find" more than 11,000 votes ...

"This ruling also affects Georgia prosecution, which is based on the same conduct, though even as president, Trump can't torpedo a state case," former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Monday.

Former federal prosecutor Michael McAuliffe told Newsweek that "to the extent that the Georgia state RICO case relies on acts that are core presidential duties, or at a minimum official, then the new immunity case would present a new barrier to the government's prosecution."

...former federal prosecutor and CNN legal analyst Elie Honig spoke about the ruling on Monday and said that "the Georgia case, the Fani Willis indictment, that one is in big trouble."

He added: "That alleges essentially, largely, the same conduct as in Jack Smith's January 6 case. So, they're going to have in Georgia, the same exact immunity issues."

The phone call is lousy evidence, anyway. He wanted to do a forensic examination of the physical ballots. BFD. Because you can give it a different interpretation does not invalidate the most likely interpretation, because that constitutes reasonable doubt. As a matter of law? So if it’s not usable as evidence, even better.

It was not to FIND the illegal votes.It was to PRESERVE them. Here is what he said (after detailing the thousands of illegal votes that were cast)

"But they are shredding ballots, in my opinion, based on what I've heard. And they are removing machinery and they're moving it as fast as they can, both of which are criminal finds. And you can't let it happen and you are letting it happen. You know, I mean, I'm notifying you that you're letting it happen. So look. All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have because we won the state."

I understand Fanny paid the boyfriend to go to her log cabin, then showed it to him.

AND to think that I had a week long BATTLE with my mother over what MAJOR I wanted to study in college.

She wanted me to do “JOURNALISM”

I wanted Mechanical Engineering—She argued—NOT a woman’s job”

I refused to go...Cancelled all plans.

Spent almost all of my working hours doing accounting & bookkeeping with jobs selling auto parts when necessary.

Raffensperger said no - because - most of the provably ineligible voters in Georgia are Blacks, who failed to update their new voting address within six months.

Repeat - a deliberate and malicious lie by Newsweek.

And a deliberate and malicious act by Ratberger.

There were way more fraudulent votes than 11,000 in Georgia.

he asked him to “find” more than 11,000 votes ...


Notice that only the word “find” is in quotes. That is because it doesn’t go with the rest of the sentence, which originally pointed towards 11,000 *ineligible* votes.
