Anyone who watched the persecution – not “prosecution,” but persecution – of then-former President Trump by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis with a fair-minded attitude concluded from the get-go it was completely political. Then there were reports that a Willis surrogate and lover had actually traveled to the Biden White House during the prosecution to meet with counsel, adding more fuel to the claim that the whole “election meddling” charge was manufactured and, perhaps, being managed by the regime in DC.
Subsequent reporting at the time noted that Biden’s Justice Department also funneled millions of dollars to Willis’ office.
Just the News reported:
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis coordinated extensively with the Biden Justice Department and White House as well as Democrats on the House Jan. 6 investigative committee as she built a failed criminal case against President Donald Trump and his allies related to their challenge to Georgia’s 2020 election results, according to a trove of internal communications obtained by Just the News.
The memos show that President Joe Biden’s top White House lawyer personally opened the door for Willis’ prosecutors to interview Trump administration officials by waiving claims of executive privilege, that federal prosecutors waived certain rights to allow the interviews to proceed before a state grand jury and that Willis’s team spoke glowingly of the congressional efforts to expose Trump’s involvement in the disputed election.
Now, a Georgia Republican wants some answers about all this money:
A Georgia lawmaker said he is eager to investigate a no-bid grant awarded to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ office by the Biden Justice Department given to her while she probed President Donald Trump for alleged violations of Georgia state laws. …
Willis’ office ultimately received $2,000,000 to implement programs under the Justice Department’s 2022 Office of Justice Programs Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative grant.
“We have a lot of questions about that,” said Georgia State Senator Greg Dolezal, a Republican, who is one of the lawmakers who led the state-level investigation in Willis’ prosecution of Trump.
“That’s really going to be the next phase of what we’re looking into is the tie to what could have been a carrot from the time that Joe Biden put up the bat signal on November 13. I think it was where he said, “We’re going to ensure, by any means possible, that we demonstrate that Donald Trump will not take office,” Dolezal told the Just the News, No Noise TV show last week.
“On that very same day, Nathan Wade spent eight hours on the phone with the White House. Now, of course, he can’t remember what that eight-hour conversation was about, but we’ve got our guesses as to what it was about,” he added.
Willis indicted Trump and several allies in August 2023. Not long thereafter, the case began to fall apart after revelations that she was having a romantic relationship with her main prosecutor, Nathan Hale. Since then, the case effectively died after Trump won the 2024 election.
But all of what transpired leading up to the case being tossed needs to be explained and, barring that, there could also be prosecutable violations of law. We need to know, and it looks like Dolezal is on it.
