Left Turns on Willis – Odor of Mendacity in Case against Trump

Following Georgia Judge Scott McAfee’s decision to allow District Attorney Fani Willis to continue prosecuting the RICO case against former President Donald Trump, the liberal media has swiftly turned on her. Despite the ruling permitting Willis to proceed as long as she dismisses Nathan Wade, her former lover whom she appointed as the special prosecutor in November 2021, her credibility has been severely undermined.

While the outcome of the ruling was in Willis’s favor, Andrew Weissmann, a prominent MSNBC contributor known for his role in the Trump-Russia investigation, has called for Willis to recuse herself voluntarily. He expressed doubts about her ability to do so, viewing McAfee’s decision as a significant setback that may ultimately prove fatal to Willis’s career. Similarly, CNN’s chief legal affairs correspondent, Paula Reid, emphasized the repercussions of the ruling on the public perception of the case, noting the strategic advantage it provides to Trump and his co-defendants.

Meanwhile, conservative commentators at The Federalist are advocating for Willis to be indicted for perjury in light of the recent developments. Despite McAfee’s ruling determining no actual conflict of interest but acknowledging an appearance of impropriety that led to Wade’s resignation, the opinion has been criticized for its flawed analysis of the situation. Trump’s legal team remains poised for an appeal, with calls for Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr to take action and bring perjury charges against Willis and Wade.

As Willis navigates the tumultuous aftermath of McAfee’s decision, it is evident that her pursuit of Trump has left her vulnerable to scrutiny and potential legal repercussions. The intricacies of the case continue to unravel, placing Willis in a precarious position as she faces mounting pressure and public backlash.
