In August, right after her indictment of former President Donald Trump on charges of racketeering and conspiracy, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis made a statement that said, “Trump and the other defendants charged in this indictment refused to accept that Trump lost, and they knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump.”
Well, a lot has happened since that statement.
New revelations about Willis’ affair with special prosecutor Nathan Wade and her other attempts to taint the jury have placed the spotlight on Willis.
And now, the evidence seems to show that Willis is the one attempting to change or hide the truth about herself.
For instance, Willis has insisted that her relationship with Wade began after she had already hired him as special counsel in the Trump case.
However, a filing made on Friday by Mike Roman, who is a co-defendant along with Trump, says that Wade’s former law partner, Terrence Bradley, is willing to testify that the relationship between Willis and Wade goes back to before she was even sworn in as District Attorney.
“Bradley can confirm that Willis contracted with Wade after Wade and Willis began a romantic relationship, thus rebutting Wade’s claim in his affidavit that they did not start dating until 2022,” the filing says, according to the New York Post.
But Willis is attempting to keep Bradley, purportedly a friend of Wade’s, from testifying.
The Fulton County District Attorney’s office has filed a legal motion seeking to prevent the subpoenas issued for Willis, Wade and others to testify at a Feb. 15 hearing, according to the Post.
Should Fani Willis be prosecuted?
Additionally, The House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed Willis for documents related to her potential misuse of federal funds.
But Willis did not accept service of the subpoena when it was emailed to her.
The House was forced to use the U.S. Marshals Service to serve the subpoena to Willis, according to the Daily Caller.
“Why wouldn’t Fani Willis just accept service like everyone else? Making the U.S. Marshal’s Service use taxpayer money to do this is a complete waste of time and resources,” a source told the Daily Caller.
“But we shouldn’t be surprised when it comes to her office,” the source said.

The old cliche about people who live in glass houses seems to ring true here.
Just a few months ago, Willis presented herself to the media as a crusader who would uncover the alleged conspiracy “knowingly and willfully” perpetrated by Trump and his associates to overturn the election results.
However, it has now come to light that there was a conspiracy to defraud Georgia taxpayers “knowingly and willfully” occurring within Willis’ own office.

Willis hired a completely unqualified attorney to prosecute a former president of the United States despite her romantic relationship with him.
When it came to light, she attempted to unlawfully change the timeline of events.
And now that the secret is out, Willis is the one refusing to accept the outcome of her actions.
Sometimes, when you least expect it, life serves you up a big heaping of humble pie.
After all her self-righteous aggrandizing, at the end of the day, it might be Willis who may be looking for a pardon from Trump.
