THE FIRST FAMILY OF PARASITE GAMER LAWYERS - Marlow: ‘The Bidens Were Clearly Given Millions of Dollars from Entities All Over the World’

 

Marlow: ‘The Bidens Were Clearly Given Millions of Dollars from Entities All Over the World’

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief and New York Times bestselling Breaking Biden author Alex Marlow said Monday Real America’s Voice’s “Stinchfield Tonight” that President Joe Biden and his family were “clearly given millions of dollars from entities all over the world.”

While discussing FBI informant Alexander Smirnov being charged with making false statements, anchor Grant Stinchfield said, “Why should I even believe the FBI? They now have a history of lying to us about just about everything. Why do I believe them that this guy is lying?”

Marlow said, “Yeah I love this point. I don’t necessarily believe them either. It is kinda too soon to know for sure who is telling the truth here. But it is a total distraction. Remember the lawyer for the Clintons that gave false information to the FBI for Alfa Bank? He was charged with lying to the FBI and then he was acquitted. So who knows if this thing is going to get turned over.”

He continued, “All of this is a media hoax that is going on trying to make it so there is some indication there is no evidence against the Bidens. The Bidens were clearly given millions of dollars from entities all over the world. You were correct to play the Burisma example, the clearest one. Bribery on tape clear as day.”

Marlow added, “We still have a man with close ties to the Chinese government and military, sent the Biden family companies millions of dollars. He and Hunter have been frequent collaborators at the CEFC example. The energy executive also gave Hunter some ice, he gave him some diamonds. No one has explained this to us.”

He concluded, “None of these have anything to do with whether or not the FBI is telling the truth or whether or not one informant fibbed.”

Levin: Jack Smith’s Employing Tactics of Hague’s ‘Genocidal Maniacs’ to Get Trump, ‘Biden WH Is Behind It’

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is doing everything humanly possible to convict presidential candidate Donald Trump – even if it means employing the tactics of “some of the genocidal maniacs“ who’ve been prosecuted at The Hague, Constitutional Scholar Mark Levin said Saturday.

“This guy, Jack Smith, he’s spent too much time at The Hague. He’s got the mindset of some of the people who  were prosecuted there, some of the genocidal maniacs,” Host Levin said during the opening of Life, Liberty & Levin, recalling the time Smith spent prosecuting war crimes at The Hague.

“This is the United States of America,” Levin reminded Special Prosecutor Smith, calling him out for ignoring U.S. legal principles in his zeal to convict the former president and the leading candidate to oppose Democrat President Joe Biden in 2024:

“You stripped him of attorney-client privilege, in one case.

“You’re stripping him of immunity.

“And, you stripped him of executive privilege. Biden did that.

“You criminalized a case that wasn’t criminal. You could’ve handled it civilly, if at all, that way.”

“And now, you’re gone down there to Florida, where your case should have been brought – but used a grand jury in D.C., instead of a grand jury in Florida,” Levin said, explaining the convoluted process Smith employed to prosecute Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents.

“You’re trying to do everything humanly possible to get this man convicted,” Levin said, addressing Special Counsel Smith:

“Every one of these 91 damn charges is phony, up and down.”

Levin explained the ways Trump-hating prosecutors throughout the country have twisted the law to prosecute Trump, such as employing “a fraud statute that doesn’t require fraud,” and trying to turn a business reporting misdemeanor into an election law felony:

“What I want you to get out of this is the extent to which they are rewriting laws, twisting laws, making laws, in order to get Trump.

“None of this is far and square.

“None of this is in the precedent of criminal prosecutions.

“None of this is in the criminal code, state or federal.”

Concerning the scheme to use the Espionage Act against Trump for his handling of documents, Levin explained that Trump – and only Trump – could declassify them, and could do so simply by taking possession of them:

“Hello: he was the president. When he said, ‘I’m taking this document,’ or physically took it, that can be considered declassification. A president’s not going to take a document in order to be prosecuted, is he?

“He is the executive branch. The vice president is not. A senator is not. Hillary Clinton was not.”

“They had to find crimes,” Levin said, explaining the irrationality of the attempts to convict Trump of insurrection and sedition:

“So, here we talking about insurrection: what does that have to do with the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1870?

“Sedition: what does that have to do the Enron obstruction laws that were passed?

“What does that have to do with the federal contractor law used to go after crooked federal contractor violence?”

What’s more, the prosecutors are arguing that the cases must be heard right away, in a thinly-veiled attempt to interrupt and derail Trump’s presidential campaign.

“And more and more information is coming out that the Biden White House is behind it all. [D.A.] Bragg. [D.A.] Fani [Willis], even Smith. They’ve all, in one form or another, consulted with the White House.”

“Isn’t that a problem?” Levin asked.

FANI WILLIS RACIST, ETHICALLY SQUALID WELL PAID HO!

Fani Willis DESTROYS Herself

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTt68DOo2S0

ALL LAWYERS ARE LIARS. ALL ARE GAMERS OF THE LAW. ALL KNOW THE SYSTEM IS TIGHTLY RIGGED BY LAWYERS TO PROTECT THE CRIMINALLY INCLINED PIG LAWYER.

The Love Song of D.A. Fani Willis

“The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by poet T.S. Eliot shares the story of a sexually frustrated middle-aged man who wants to express his true feelings but is afraid to speak his mind.

“The Love Song of (Fulton County) D.A. Fani Willis” tells the tragic tale of a woman whose lust for power was exceeded by her lust for another woman’s husband, and now she faces embarrassment and possibly even legal ramifications for accusations based on her sordid affair with a married man.

Look for any parallels you might find between Eliot’s poem and the life and times of Fani Willis.

Let us go then, you and I,
When the evening is spread out against the sky
Like a patient etherized upon a table ...

No one has ever accused Fani Willis of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

Fulton County Superior Court judge Robert McBurney said about Willis hosting a 2022 fundraiser for a Democrat candidate opposing a potential target of her investigation, “It’s a ‘What are you thinking?’ moment.  The optics are horrific.”

When people believe they are above the law, they tend to do as they please.  Case in point: D.A. Willis apparently hired her boyfriend, Nathan Wade, to help prosecute former president Donald Trump under a RICO statute.  Even though Mr. Wade has no experience trying RICO cases, she is paying him the exorbitant rate of $250 per hour.  Thus far, Wade has billed the state of Georgia for more than $728,000 in legal fees.  Contrast his salary with attorney John Floyd, a recognized expert on RICO prosecutions, also assigned to the Trump case, who is making $150 per hour.  Mr. Wade is black, and Mr. Floyd is white.

There are only two possible explanations for why Mr. Wade should earn $100 more per hour than Mr. Floyd for doing the same work on the same case: either race played a role in the pay discrepancy or the personal relationship between Mr. Wade and Ms. Willis played a role.  Ms. Willis hired her lover at the maximum hourly rate despite his lack of experience with handling such cases and has reaped the benefit of their romantic relationship by taking extravagant trips to Belize and Aruba, cruises in the Caribbean, and even a champagne and caviar tasting in Napa Valley.

What, no balloon rides?  All courtesy of Georgia taxpayers.

And indeed there will be time
To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”

Ms. Willis (and Mr. Wade) claims she reimbursed Mr. Wade with cash she just happened to have lying around the house.  Apparently, she doesn’t have a checking account.  In virtually every other instance where she reimbursed others for her personal expenses, she used Cash App instead of paying with actual cash, but in the instance of reimbursing Mr. Wade for far more money, she used actual currency — currency that never shows as being deposited into Mr. Wade’s bank.

Ms. Willis didn’t have to get involved in a political prosecution of former President Trump, but Joe Biden and the White House wanted him prosecuted, and she wanted to be a good Democrat and toe the party line.  She didn’t have to hire Mr. Wade.  She thought she could get away with it.

Do I dare
Disturb the universe?

Ms. Willis got on the stand and may have gotten herself disbarred when she defiantly said, “Do you think I’m on trial?  These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020.  I’m not on trial, no matter how hard you try to put me on trial.”

However, she said this while on the witness stand after the allegations of her romantic involvement with Mr. Wade first surfaced, leading the judge to call for this hearing to decide whether Ms. Willis and Mr. Wade should be removed from the special prosecution or not, and it’s not looking very good for Ms. Willis.

And when I am formulated, sprawling on a pin,
When I am pinned and wriggling on the wall,
Then how should I begin
To spit out all the butt-ends of my days and ways?
And how should I presume?

Hiring your inexperienced lover and paying him considerably more than his associates is unethical and immoral, but it might not be illegal.  But what is illegal is committing perjury, and that seems to be the biggest current problem for Ms. Willis and Mr. Wade.  Both swore in court documents that their romantic relationship did not begin until early 2022, after Mr. Wade was hired in November 2021.  However, Willis’s friend Robin Bryant-Yeartie testified under oath that she had no doubt that the relationship between Willis and Wade began as early as 2019.

When pressed about documentation or any evidence to support her claim she’d repaid Wade with cash for the extravagant vacations they’d taken together, Ms. Willis defiantly said she had her word and that the testimony of a single witness should be considered good enough.  By that standard, the testimony of Ms. Bryant-Yeartie should also be accepted without corroboration.

But though I have wept and fasted, wept and prayed,
Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought in upon a platter,
I am no prophet — and here’s no great matter;
I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,
And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker,
And in short, I was afraid.

Ashleigh Merchant, attorney for Trump co-defendant Mike Roman, made the allegations against Ms. Willis and Mr. Wade that culminated in the need for the hearing, and Ms. Wade was not happy with her.  She said, “Ms. Merchant’s interests are contrary to democracy, your Honor, not to mine,” as if the future of our right to vote depended on her integrity being questioned.

Ms. Willis appears to have made the fatal mistake of assuming the rules don’t apply to her.

Politic, cautious, and meticulous;
Full of high sentence, but a bit obtuse;
At times, indeed, almost ridiculous —
Almost, at times, the Fool.

The prosecution of President Trump is purely political and designed to prevent him from winning the election this November.  Mafia bosses running a criminal enterprise should be charged under RICO statutes, but not candidates for president.  Linguini-spined Brian Kemp was content to let Willis run roughshod in the judicial system to engineer a corrupt indictment, but an astute defense attorney has accused Willis of adultery and perjury.

The evidence looks damning.  We are being asked to believe, without evidence, that Ms. Willis reimbursed Mr. Wade for her half of all their travel expenses out of untraceable cash reserves she just had lying around her house — reserves that included funds she now claims she kept that were campaign contributions illegally converted to her personal use.  We are being asked to believe that their affair didn’t begin until 2022 when a former associate has testified under oath that it actually began in 2019.

Just when you think it couldn’t get any more embarrassing for Fani Willis, the world discovered she was allegedly wearing her dress backwards.  Even the London Daily Mail noticed.

At one point, the judge called for a five-minute recess because Ms. Willis had gotten out of control, shouting that Ms. Merchant is a liar.  

Before the hearing began, the question being asked most often was whether Ms. Willis and Mr. Ward would be allowed to remain involved with the prosecution of President Trump.  Now the question is whether Ms. Willis will be allowed to keep her license to practice law.

Fani Willis’s and Nathan Wade’s testimony cries out for an investigation

Fani Willis’s and Nathan Wade’s testimony, to date, indicates that they allegedly engaged in the lowest form of money laundering, something that seems to have blindsided the state’s attorney general. On the facts, though, it’s clear that both need to be investigated and, perhaps, given the boot.

To frame the import of their testimony, consider that, occasionally, a pitcher will be called up from the minors in Major League Baseball. He’ll then strike out top hitters by throwing “fastballs” that peak at 70 mph. These are high-school speed pitches, but they somehow baffle big-league hitters. Why is this? Because the pitches are unexpectedly low-tech.

Thanks to scientific techniques, hitters are used to seeing pitches bearing down at them faster than 95 mph with sharp movement. When they see this slow, floating white object languidly approaching them, it confuses them, throwing off their timing and causing them to miss the ball entirely.

Viewing Fani Willis’s seeming money laundering as low-tech may explain why Georgia’s Republican Attorney General of Georgia has not already announced an investigation into her activities. In a hi-tech world, where people engage in sophisticated machinations to avoid detection, a scheme so basic and lacking in complexity confuses members of law enforcement.

Image: Fani Willis (edited). YouTube screen grab.

How low-tech was Fani’s activity? Just consider the known facts.

In politics, we often hear the phrase, “That explanation doesn’t pass the laugh test.” In Fani’s case, though, it literally failed that test as one of Trump’s co-defendants, David Shafer, laughed out loud after hearing Nathan Wade explain that Fani Willis paid cash to reimburse him for the trips and other outlays he spent on her. I’m almost surprised Ashleigh Merchant, who questioned Wade, didn’t say, “I’m sorry. I was all the way over here. I couldn’t hear you. Did you say she paid you back in cash, that’s it?”

In what universe did the chief law enforcement officer in a county of more than one million people think her explanation would fly? “Yes, I reimbursed my lover, to whom I paid hundreds of thousands in taxpayer funds, with cash. No, I don’t have a record of withdrawing the cash from a bank. No, my lover didn’t give me a receipt to show that I reimbursed him. And, no, there’s no record of my lover depositing the cash into a bank.”

Oh, OK. I guess we have to take you at your word for it, then.

Imagine for a moment that Fani Willis’ concept of ethics was to be the norm for government officials... A lobbyist for a defense contractor could drop off a new Porsche at the home of a congressman on the Defense Appropriation Committee right before that congressman voted to grant a large contract to the company the lobbyist represents. The congressman could do this despite explicit prohibitions on these gifts. Then, of course, he’d fail to report it.

Under the “Fani Willis rule,” if he were to be called out, he would just say it wasn’t a gift because he repaid the lobbyist with cash. And no, he has no record of doing so, but you should trust his word. The entire idea of an ethical framework would be rendered moot by such an interpretation.

The irony is that Donald Trump is being prosecuted in Georgia because, supposedly, he knew he lost the election but still attempted to contest the results. Now, though, we’ve learned that both Willis and Wade believe that their own personal beliefs supersede the actual law.

Wade, for example, explained that the reason he wasn’t forthcoming on his interrogatories in his divorce proceedings was because he personally believed that his marriage was irrevocably broken because his wife cheated on him in 2015, even though he was still legally married to her as of this date. At the same time, Fani admitted that she didn’t have to comply with the rules surrounding reporting gifts because, in her own mind, those weren’t really gifts. Apparently, Atlanta prosecutors get to apply their own individual standards vis-a-vis the law, but Donald Trump is not afforded that same leeway.

To date, the Georgia Republican party leadership has largely refused to intervene in this corrupt prosecution. The time for them to wake up has arrived. It’s time to square up and smack that slow floating white ball into the seats like the late great Atlanta icon Hank Aaron would have done. Such an apparently colossal breach of both ethics and the law can neither be ignored nor allowed to stand.


BIDEN IS NOTHING BUT A MEAT PUPPET FOR OBAMA - GEORGE SOROS. GOOGLE IT!

Recapping the two-tiered justice system in light of revelations that foreign intel spied on Trump associates

The Obama and Biden administrations have continually used government bureaucrats to target political opponents. The media has known this for a long time, and hasn’t cared. They pretend that Obama and Biden were clean, and that Trump was/is the “greatest threat to democracy” America has ever seen.

The story below is one of pure election interference in the 2016 election:

CIA and foreign intelligence agencies illegally targeted 26 Trump associates before 2016 Russia collusion claims: report

The US Intelligence Community asked foreign spy agencies to surveil 26 associates of Donald Trump in the run-up to the 2016 election, which triggered the allegations that the former president’s campaign had been colluding with Russia, according to a report.

Former CIA Director John Brennan identified and presented the targets to the US’s intelligence-sharing partners in the so-called ‘Five Eyes’ agencies – the intelligence-gathering organizations in the US, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand – according to a report published Monday on Michael Shellenberger’s Public Substack

Maybe the reason the intelligence agencies miss things like Hamas’s years-long preparation to attack Israel is because they’re more consumed with destroying politicians they don’t like.

Of course this story will not make it onto channels like CNN or MSNBC because the legacy media is complicit in the continuing election interference, doing their part and burying the truth about how corrupt our government is from the public.

Obama also used the IRS to target his political opponents who just wanted smaller government and lower taxes; the corrupt Justice Department tasked an Obama donor to conduct the pretend investigation of Lois Lerner who perjured herself and obstructed justice by destroying computers while violating the constitutional free speech and freedom of association rights of Tea Party members. Naturally, the corrupt DOJ let Lerner off because many Democrats in the Obama administration were above the law.

A report about how the Obama administration illegally spied on ordinary Americans throughout his eight years in office came out after Obama left office:

Report: Obama era NSA admits to years of illegal searches on Americans

A bombshell report claims that the NSA, under then President Obama, conducted years of illegal searches of American's private data. The report appears in the online publication Circa and details how once-classified documents show how the spy agency failed to disclose the abuses.

According to a previously classified report reviewed by Circa, one in 20 electronic communications by Americans were scooped up and kept by the NSA. The NSA admitted that the actions of the so-called 702 database potentially violated the fourth amendment protections of millions of Americans. This even after the spy agency's own supervisors agreed in 2011 to follow certain safeguards. The publication goes on to say the Obama administration self-disclosed the violations late last year just before President Donald Trump was elected. The admittance of wrongdoing was made before the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. 

Of course no one was charged for these constitutional abuses because the Justice department didn’t care. Why didnt the media highlight this lawlessness while they campaigned for Biden and sought to destroy Trump in 2020?

Obama’s team used the Espionage Act to jail reporters’ sources, but instead of just reporting that, this article editorialized that “Trump could be worse” with no evidence to support the claim:

Obama used the Espionage Act to put a record number of reporters’ sources in jail, and Trump could be even worse

Under pressure from Congress and intelligence agencies, Attorney General Eric Holder directed the Department of Justice to aggressively prosecute government employees who discussed classified information with reporters.

Obama continually spied on journalists:

Obama Administration Secretly Obtains Phone Records of AP Journalists

The Department of Justice secretly obtained phone records for reporters and editors who work for the Associated Press news agency, including records for the home phones and cell phones of individual journalists, apparently in an effort to uncover a leak.

And here:

The Obama administration has investigated a reporter with Fox News as a probable ‘co-conspirator’ in a criminal spying case after a report based on a State Department leak.

How dare Sharyl Attkisson tell the truth about Holder and Obama!

Vendetta: How the Obama Administration Harassed Sharyl Attkisson for Her Reporting on Operation Fast and Furious

And, what about this?

Warrants to Spy on Trump Campaign Lacked Probable Cause, DOJ Admits

Turns out the FBI and Justice Department did abuse the FISA process, omit material information, and subvert justice, and the DOJ now has admitted it.

Yeah, we call that… lying.

So why didn’t a slew of people go to jail for all these crimes? Because the corrupt Justice Department didn’t care.

In 2020, 51 former intelligence officials who wanted Biden to be president, penned a letter (without evidence) that said that the Hunter Biden “Laptop from Hell” looked like Russian disinformation. This gave the media cover to hide the truth from the public.

The FBI knew by the fall of 2020 that this wasn’t true, yet contacted social media outlets to mislead them into burying the truth from the public before the election.

Mark Zuckerberg said Facebook’s decision to restrict a story about Hunter during the 2020 election was based on FBI misinformation warnings.

At this moment, Trump is fighting off how many felony charges? Close to one hundred. And, Biden officials have allegedly participated in decisions relating to these ongoing suits, as they continually claim that they are not involved. Here’s this from a Breitbart report:

Prosecutors Reportedly Met with Biden Admin Before 3 Trump Indictments

In three cases, prosecutors reportedly met with the Biden administration before indicting Trump:

  1. Alvin Bragg: New York – “Stormy Daniels” Case (state)

  2. Jack Smith: Miami – “Documents” Case (federal)

  3. Fani Willis: Fulton County, Georgia (state)

The media knows about all this illegal spying and constitutional abuse by Obama and Biden, yet supports them and targets Trump. They are as big a danger to our survival as a great and free country as the corrupt government swampers themselves.

NBC: Willis ‘Had a Strategy’ of Selective Recall YOU MEAN LIKE A LYING LAWYER???

On Thursday’s edition of NBC’s “Top Story,” host Tom Llamas and NBC Legal Analyst Danny Cevallos stated that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) had strategically poor recall when she was asked any potentially incriminating questions.

Llamas said, “She sort of had a strategy with the way she was answering questions, right? She seemed to have total recall when she could take the question head-on, and then, at other times, when it was a tough question, there was, oh, I don’t remember. There was a little bit of sort of sidetalk.”

Cevallos responded, “I hear a lot of folks saying she came out swinging, she fought back. And you know what, that’s great if you’re giving a speech or giving an interview. But I have to believe that every attorney who thinks she did a great job, I would ask, look, … would you tolerate a witness not answering your questions the way this witness did? … [T]he defense attorneys didn’t ask the proper leading questions. There’s a way to ask and limit the witness to a yes or no answer. And really, the defense attorneys could have done a better job in that area. But in terms of a witness testifying…she wasn’t following the rules of evidence. She got away with it. And you know what, she took a chance and it probably saved the day for her. Because, you’re right, she did get a message across. But if I was evaluating this strictly by the rules of evidence and what my good friends here would tolerate if they were cross-examining a witness, there’s no way.”

Later, Cevallos added, “[W]hen it came to things that could get her in trouble, she had bad recall. Have you paid your tax liens? Don’t know. But when it comes to all the continents and countries that Nathan Wade has visited, oh, she remembers that perfectly. Why? Zero risk whatsoever.”

Fani Willis Campaigned in 2020 on Not Engaging in Sexual Misconduct

ATLANTA, GEORGIA - AUGUST 14: Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis speaks during a
Joe Raedle/Getty Images

Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis campaigned in 2020 on not engaging in sexual misconduct, as her predecessor was accused of doing.

The irony of Willis’s campaign promise was evident after allegations of her own affair surfaced, along with financial implications.

When asked in 2020 about her qualifications to be elected Fulton County’s prosecutor, Willis said, “Because they deserve a DA that won’t have sex with his employees, because they deserve a DA that won’t put money in their own pocket when it should go to benefit children. Because we deserve better.”

Willis won in the general election on November 3, 2020, dislodging a longtime former county prosecutor accused of corruption. She assumed office on January 1, 2021. Her term will end on December 31, 2024.

In 2023, Trump and codefendant Mike Roman accused Willis of maintaining an improper romantic relationship with her top Trump case prosecutor, Nathan Wade.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis arrives to speak at a news conference at the Fulton County Government building on August 14, 2023, in Atlanta, Georgia. A grand jury today handed up an indictment naming former President Donald Trump and his Republican allies over an alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election results in the state (Joe Raedle/Getty Images).

Wade testified Thursday that his relationship with Willis began in 2022 after Willis opened the case against Trump in 2021. But former Fulton County District Attorney employee and Willis’s college friend, Robin Yeartie, said she was definitely in a relationship with Nathan Wade since 2019, contradicting Wade and Willis:

Breitbart News’s Joel Pollak further analyzed Thursday’s hearing:

But it was Willis who was in the spotlight — and she performed abominably, throwing a tantrum on the witness stand that led the judge to call a five minute recess to regain order. She corroborated Wade’s claim that she had reimbursed his expenses for her with cash — but could provide no receipts for cash withdrawals from her bank (nor did Wade provide receipts for cash deposits).

Her claim that she only developed a romantic relationship with Wade after he joined the Trump case seemed to hinge on the nebulous definition of what a romantic relationship is and whether it involved sexual intercourse. Former friend Robin Bryant-Yeartie testified that Willis and Wade had a relationship as early as 2019; both denied that — but then, of course, they would.

Willis also tried to claim that she did not need to declare on disclosure forms that she had received gifts — meals, or travel — in excess of a net of $100, in aggregate, over a calendar year because she had paid her own way and paid for some of his expenses. In one bizarre admission, she seemed to suggest she had taken cash from one of her campaigns for public office for personal use. And she struggled to reconcile her campaign promise not to have sex with subordinates with the fact that she had clearly done so with Wade; she tried arguing at first that he was an “agent” rather than an “employee,” though he remained in charge of his work.

If the presiding judge determines Willis engaged in an actual conflict of interest with her lover and fellow prosecutor, Willis would be removed from the case, handing former President Donald Trump a massive victory in the Georgia election interference case.

Fani Willis Could Face Disqualification, Disbarment, Prosecution

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis testifies during a hearing on the Georgia elec
Alyssa Pointer/Pool Photo / Associated Press

Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis was defiant on the witness stand on Thursday, but she could face serious consequences for her alleged ethical violations in the prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 other co-defendants.

In January, one of those co-defendants, Mike Roman, filed a motion alleging that Willis had an improper relationship with fellow prosecutor Nathan Wade. Willis’s response was to tell an Atlanta church that her opponents were “playing the race card.”

But it turned out to be true, as Willis and Wade have now admitted under oath. The only questions are whether their romantic relationship started before Willis brought the under-qualified Wade onto the prosecution team in late 2021, and whether she (or he) benefited financially from that relationship, both in the general operation of the DA’s office and the Trump case in particular.

Wade’s testimony on Thursday was damning, and suggested that he may have lied under oath. He told a divorce court that he had not had a relationship with anyone outside his marriage prior to the end of that marriage in 2023, yet that was clearly untrue. He claimed Thursday that because his marriage had broken down in 2015, the relationship with Willis was not really outside of it.

When asked if he had receipts for purchases — including meals and vacation travel — with Willis, he said that he did not. But he admitted that he had paid on his business credit card, which meant that he had “statements.” His lack of candor to the court is arguably a major ethics violation, since lawyers are also officers of the court and cannot knowingly mislead it, even by omission.

But it was Willis who was in the spotlight — and she performed abominably, throwing a tantrum on the witness stand that led the judge to call a five minute recess to regain order. She corroborated Wade’s claim that she had reimbursed his expenses for her with cash — but could provide no receipts for cash withdrawals from her bank (nor did Wade provide receipts for cash deposits).

Her claim that she only developed a romantic relationship with Wade after he joined the Trump case seemed to hinge on the nebulous definition of what a romantic relationship is, and whether it involved sexual intercourse. Former friend Robin Bryant-Yeartie testified that Willis and Wade had a relationship as early as 2019; both denied that — but then, of course they would.

Willis also tried to claim that she did not need to declare on disclosure forms that she had received gifts — meals, or travel — in excess of a net of $100, in aggregate, over a calendar year because she had paid her own way and paid for some of his expenses. In one bizarre admission, she seemed to suggest she had taken cash from one of her campaigns for public office for personal use. And she struggled to reconcile her campaign promise not to have sex with subordinates with the fact that she had clearly done so with Wade; she tried arguing at first that he was an “agent” rather than an “employee,” though he remained in charge of his work.

Judge Scott McAfee could disqualify Willis (and Wade) from the case simply on the basis of the appearance of impropriety — and no reasonable person could watch Willis’s antics on the witness stand and conclude that she was fit to try such an important case.

But if Willis lied to the court, she could also face disbarment. She could also be prosecuted for perjury — not just for lying to the court, but also for filing misleading financial disclosures. Ironically, as Jonathan Turley points out at Fox, Willis and Wade are prosecuting Trump and his associates for allegedly misleading courts — though the case against Wills and Wade is far stronger.
