Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis tore into House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan on Thursday in a searing letter accusing the Ohio Republican of trying to obstruct her criminal prosecution of former President Donald Trump.

“There is no justification in the Constitution for Congress to interfere with a state criminal matter, as you attempt to do,” Willis wrote in the nine-page retort to Jordan, whose committee last month launched a probe into the district attorney’s prosecution of Trump.

    Oh man everyone needs to read that letter. It’s a thorough tearing apart of Jordan’s demands. She throws shade left and right and I love it.

      “Here is another reality you must face: Those who wish to avoid felony charges in Fulton County, Georgia — including violations of Georgia RICO law — should not commit felonies in Fulton County, Georgia,” Willis wrote.

      Damn.

        ‘Moreover, “investigations conducted solely for the personal aggrandizement of the investigators or to ‘punish’ those investigated are indefensible.”’

        2nd paragraph and already has him on pucker status right out of the gate.

        man, I dunno if she’s gonna get a conviction, but this is definitely going to be the Watergate of this century, the defining political shitshow for a generation. And it’s gonna be fantastic to watch.

          The only way this doesn’t end in a conviction is if a Magat ends up on the jury.

          Fuck, that’s pretty likely, isn’t it?

      I read it on your good recommendation. Was not disappointed. That woman is fire! She even ends it with recommendations for congress on broader issues related to the justice system they could be working on. 10/10, no notes.
