Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a complaint asking for the disbarment of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over her relationship with a prosecutor she hired for her Georgia election interference case against former President Donald Trump.

On social media, Greene said she was filing the complaint to disbar Willis "for her corrupt actions."

Willis "should've been removed from her political persecution of President Trump after it was revealed she went on lavish vacations with her lover Nathan Wade," Greene wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

"The lover she paid HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of dollars! Unfit to serve!"

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a complaint asking for the disbarment of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over her relationship with a prosecutor she hired for her Georgia election interference case against former President Donald Trump.

Willis "should've been removed from her political persecution of President Trump after it was revealed she went on lavish vacations with her lover Nathan Wade," Greene wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

The Republican congresswoman wrote in a complaint filed with the State Bar of Georgia on Wednesday that she was "requesting an investigation of Fani Willis, her suspension, and her disbarment," Bloomberg News reported.

Wade offered his resignation hours after McAfee's ruling, saying in a letter to Willis that he was doing so "in the interest of democracy, in dedication to the American public and to move this case forward as quickly as possible."

Defense attorneys alleged that Wade was paid large sums for his work on the case that Willis improperly benefited when he used his earnings to pay for trips for them.

Greene's complaint is yet another effort by Trump allies to discredit the most sprawling of four criminal cases against the former president, who is now the presumptive Republican nominee for the 2024 election.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
