Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is dealing with a new damning revelation every day.
It’s now Willis who’s on trial every bit as much as Trump.
And Fani Willis’ courtroom confession blindsided Donald Trump.
As American Patriot Daily reports:
Willis testified in a hearing called by Judge Scott McAfee to determine if Willis’ conflict of interest should disqualify her and the entire Fulton County District Attorney’s Office from the RICO case against Trump and his co-defendants over charges stemming from contesting the 2020 election.
Co-defendant Michael Roman filed a motion alleging Willis hired a man she was having an affair with – Nathan Wade – as the special prosecutor in the Trump case and that Willis financially benefited from this as Wade would pay for the two to travel on vacation together with the money he billed Fulton County.
Willis and Wade were already in trouble for potential false statement charges as they claimed the relationship didn’t begin until after Willis brought Wade on to the Trump case in 2022 as Willis’ former friend Robin Yeartie testified that their affair began in 2019.
And Willis dug her hole even deeper by offering up her defense that Wade gave her impermissible gifts at the taxpayers’ expense by claiming she always paid for her half of the trips using the untraceable bills she kept stashed away in her house.
Roman’s lawyer Ashleigh Merchant asked Willis where the cash came from that she used to pay back Wade, and Willis stated she had no way of knowing.
“Cash is fungible. I’ve had cash for years in my house. So for me to tell you the source of where it comes from, when you go to Publix and you buy something, you get $50, you throw it in there. It’s been my whole life,” Willis declared.
Then came a real bombshell.
Willis admitted she kept money from a loan from her first campaign as part of her cash stash squirreled away at her house.
“When I took out a large amount of money on my first campaign, I kept some of the cash of that. Like, to tell you I just have cash in my house, I don’t have as much today as I would normally have, but I’m building back up now,” Willis testified.
Townhall’s Ed Morrissey wrote that campaign finance lawyers’ ears perked up at that admission as it’s unclear if the state of Georgia allows the use of campaign funds for personal use.
But what Morrissey wrote is not in dispute is that Willis would have to report that money to the IRS and pay taxes on it and if Willis did neither of those things she potentially opened herself up to a world of trouble.
“Even if Georgia law allows such personal conversions of campaign cash to personal use, it raises an issue about Willis’ income tax status. That cash would have to be reported to the IRS and Georgia’s revenue office as income. Did Willis report that cash and pay taxes on it? Maybe, but we also heard about a tax lien on Willis’ property that remained unresolved during the period that Willis claimed to be reimbursing Wade through her cash stash (or ‘hoard,’ as one of the other defense attorneys put it),” Morrissey argued.
The case in Georgia is a sham.
Trump’s contention that Willis brought the case for political reasons grows more indisputable by the day.
Even a liberal legal analyst on MSNBC declared these developments “game over” and that the judge would have no choice but to disqualify Willis which would effectively end this case as it could take the state years to find a new prosecutor willing to take it over.
