  1. Fultan DA a typical democrat… those people are all the same

  2. Fani needs to find her fani in Prison

  3. This is NOT alleged!!! The facts will show and NBC is going down with big fanny

  4. You mean the on going divorce has called her to answer for her part in his pay scale after 20+ years of marriage she deserves 50/50 or better. He filled for divorce the day before his new pay scale jumps significantly. What happend here let me explaine. Fani Willis is a civil servant. Granted she higher up the ladder and deserving of the respect that goes with it. So living her little glass house of hers. For what ever reason only God knows, she picked up a handful of rocks and started chunking them at the biggest targets she could get. She did this at a time for optimal press coverage for her own reasons. If she didn't understand that simple of a concept she surely is not capable of understanding the importance of her rank and reguardless of the side deals and palms greased she is a tax payer funded civil servant answerable to the tax payer. What are the types of crime in her area? What are her conviction rates as compared to the crime rates. If the car thefts are up/down how many car theft crimes did she proscute successfully. Compare soft wite colar crimes vs violent or drug related crimes. Is she doing her job or derilicked in her duties first and formost to the communities she serves?

  5. If she wants to get down after work hours thats on them. 2 adults doing what 2 adults do. Anything in this country is against policies and if you are not white you are not right? And no im not saying its a racist thing without saying it's a racist thing?

  6. It just gets more desperate by the second. A traitor, rapest, insurrectionist, and serial criminal is whining about someone dating.

  7. I just need 11,780 votes…

    That's all we need to know. Trump is going to prison

  8. Ah, can you say “witch hunt.” Used to be the phrase, “free, white, and 21”. Why does it matter who she hired or bedded? As for this LAWYER’s experience, isn’t it much like Habba’s?

  9. What difference does it make what goes on in her private life as long as it does not affect her public one.

  10. Corruption gang attacking President TRUMP, nothing new here. Lock her up , and her adulterous bf.

  11. Truth will ALWAYS prevail… they think you’re playing checkers and they’re playing chess, while you’re NOT playing at all.

  12. Is she getting a divorce because she had and affair with her husband Wade best friend?

  13. And what about Wade's trip to the White House?

  14. Nahhh its not about race? You've been caught red handed …with your p+×÷= down..😂😂

  15. She was gettin her Fani Packed. 😂

  16. It's actually way worse than you're reporting here

  17. What goes around comes around

  18. Treason Mrs Willi has to pay😊

  19. When all else fails, play the Race card…..

  20. A democrat lying? You don't say lol

  21. Fani is toast:
    1. Fani was given COVID money to specifically clear up a backlog of cases….she used the money for OTHER purposes. QUITE illegal….and they have witnesses and receipts.
    2. Fani is required by law to have gotten permission/approval BEFORE hiring that prosecutor. She did NOT get permission, but hired him ANYWAY. QUITE illegal.
    3. Fani hired this guy, who had ZERO experience prosecuting FELONIES, and she hired him at a pay-grade BEYOND her other experienced/senior STAFF prosecutors. QUITE Unethical. Possibly Illegal.
    4. Fani put him to work filling legal cases BEFORE he was legally allowed to do so. QUITE illegal.
    5. Fani PERSONALLY/FINANCIALLY BENEFITED from the exorbitant charges that that prosecutor made, which SHE approved, which had ZERO documentation (even a billing for 24 straight hours at a time he was UNABLE to have performed the work. VERY, VERY, VERY ILLEGAL.
    Fani will go before a judge over this, in February.
    The MINIMUM she can expect is to be removed from the case entirely and provide restitution for the illegally misdirected funds.
    The experts are SERIOUSLY talking DISBARMENT for Fani.
    Secondarily, since it's demonstrable that the Trump case would not have been done WITHOUT her, the entire Trump case can be thrown out, or "restarted" from ZERO…..either way it means that it will be irrelevant to the election.

  22. They're trying to play it down by calling it an inappropriate relationship. This is more than an inappropriate relationship. This was a criminal conspiracy to launder money through the guise of a special prosecutor appointment.

  23. Do not be sidetracked by this. FOCUS ON THE CASE.

  24. The American government is all corrupt. Let's see where we are in 10 years
