A Georgia appellate court has disqualified Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the case against Donald Trump and removed her from prosecuting not only Trump but also the co-defendants in the case she brought in relation to the efforts to overturn the 2020 election. [RULING HERE]
The decision is likely to cripple the case completely and stop the Georgia efforts to prosecute Trump. Federal prosecutors have already dropped the other criminal case related to the 2020 election in the wake of Trump winning the 2024 election.
VIA POLITICO – A Georgia appeals court has ruled that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her office must be disqualified from the criminal racketeering case she brought against President-elect Donald Trump and his allies over their efforts to alter the results of the 2020 election.
In a 2-1 decision Thursday, the court found that Willis had created the appearance of a conflict of interest stemming from her romantic relationship with an outside prosecutor whom she hired to help run the case.
“This is the rare case in which disqualification is mandated and no other remedy will suffice to restore public confidence in the integrity of these proceedings,” Judge Trenton Brown wrote, addressing the legal implications of Willis’ relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade.
The ruling appears likely to require the case to be assigned to another prosecutor. But Trump’s imminent inauguration as president means the charges against him are almost certain to either be paused while he is in office or dismissed entirely. The proceedings against Trump’s co-defendants — including close allies like former chief of staff Mark Meadows and lawyer Rudy Giuliani — could continue to grind forward during Trump’s presidency.

Good riddance.
To bad rubbish!
> “This is the rare case in which disqualification is mandated and no other remedy will suffice to restore public confidence in the integrity of these proceedings,”
At this point they should just end this entire farce and dismiss the entire thing. There hasn’t been any integrity to the proceedings since the very start, so we can’t at this late date inject some into a process that has been horribly tainted from the beginning.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Team Trump are all heroes for fighting the corruption in GA.
I suppose the court was afraid of appearing to be “r****t” if they did the right thing and declared the entire so-called “case” to be the baseless, fraudulent, malicious, wrongful prosecution that it is.
There is no substance, no merit to any of Willis’ allegations against PDJT, period.
Instead, what Team Trump did was very noble and heroic – exercise 1st Amendment political speech to call attention to mal-administration of an election.
Everyone on Team Trump in this situation should get the Medal of Freedom or whatever national hero award is available.
No, investigate her for colluding with the FJB administration, if there is collusion, then throw the book at her and at those within the FJB admin that was involved. Don’t let her and them slink away back under their rock.
Fani Willis has already been sanctioned for ignoring a subpoena for her emails with the FJB misadministration.
Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon was sent to prison, sanctioning isn’t even close to being good enough for Fanni.
Yee Bruh,
this beeotch din do nuffin!
Yaz juss a bunch o’ racisms!
What a political hit job by the Democrats. The process is the punishment!
Couldn’t happen to a finer DA….
A lot more needs to happen to her.
Disbarred, sued, lawfare the right way.
Disbarred on grounds of unethical behavior.
What now happens to the attorneys who already pled guilty to this corrupt case to save themselves from huge legal bills and possible incarceration?
They live with their choices.
The Governor of Georgia should pardon all of them.
Gov. Kemp,swamp RINO of Ga won’t touch it. His Sea Island money will be cut off.
Maybe not.
That was actually my first thought when I saw this headline. LOL
Too Bad, So Sad 😞 😔 😟
Lol!!!
Time to RICO her and everyone involved.
THIS
Would RICO dissolve presidential immunity as fraud does?
Snellville Bob, I am not sure I understand.
My comment has nothing to do with Presidential Immunity: it has to do with the behavior of Fanni Willis et al.
Crash and burn. This should be a warning, it ain’t over till the fat lady sings.
When you say Fat Lady, I hope you are referring to Fani (aka Fanny) and not Kate Smith.
Kate Smith was an iconic entertainer regardless of her girth. Fani (aka Fanny) is not!
Most probably, he’s referring to the Georgia serpent tongued Stacey Abrams. I envision her in an orange jumpsuit testifying against her co-conspiritors in the steal of the 2020 election. It is my fervent hope that she and fani Willis will be on the same cell block as Ruby Freeman and daughter (receivers of stolen goods), et al, and across the yard from Kemp, Ratsburger, etc. The criminal list is endless.
There is no meaningful warning here. She has to pay a severe price or this crap will continue.
Whoooooah-oh Fat Fani
Bam-a-lam
ISWYDT, ed:
“it ain’t over ’til the big girl from Decatur sang”- “OutKast”
Hope those hot times with Nathan were worth your career ambitions crashing and burning, Fani.
Fani just got her fanny handed to her.
No small task there…
LOL
Ashleigh Merchant is the hero behind this entire result; it was her, as defense attorney for one of the co-defendants, that brought to light the Willis/Wade relationship and got this entire ball rolling.
A good reminder that all politics really is local and it took a local defense attorney to shine the best sunlight possible to disrupt the worldly (beyond local) Lawfare cartel.
This is reminiscent of Obama’s Attorney General’s comment that to create change they need a bottom-up and a top-down approach, a local outcry from the bottom to open the door for a federal cure, from the top, is how those community organizers operate. Create enough George Floyd riots and all of a sudden federal FBI geofencing to arrest J6 attendees.
Mrs. Merchant showed us how to proceed.
Good going Ashleigh Merchant!
Some credit also has to go to Judge McAfee.
And credit to Wade’s scorned ex wife who he was cheating on with fanny. Lots of credit to go around…
Absolutely.
These people are just without any sense of morality. My gosh, they just keep doing the wrong things as if there would never be any consequences.
Definitely her too!
No, no credit goes to him. This was his job and someone else had to do the heavy lifting for him. He is WEAK.
McAfee could have shut it down but he whimped out. Knew he was up for re-election….
EXACTLY!
Exactly see my comment above. Just shy of corruption himself Judge McAfee had no ethical core. A joke and weak human being
McAfee slow walked anything that damaged the case against President Trump and ran interference to protect Willis.
THIS
Absolutely not! He prevaricated and hemmed and hawed. He owed his job to Willis. He was a compromised judge who did not have the judicial fortitude to dismiss the case and grant the multitude of Defendants motions for similar illegal acts by the Prosecution. All he could say Fani’s prosecution had the “air of mendacity” what a weak man
For what? Please explain. He covered Fani’s behind when she had her meltdown on the stand which would have probably got it all thrown out. He called a recess immediately when she started raving instead of letting her hang herself. Just one of his few mistakes until he finally had to dismiss some of the charges. No help that he worked in her office before becoming a judge. He is weak as water. No better than Governor Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr. They could have the whole thing thrown out but they are the biggest Rino’s in the state and no chance of that unless they are up against the wall. Best thing about it is they will have problems finding another prosecutor to take the case since it is so tainted. Really best thing is bye bye Fani.
YES she is. Stellar work horse and attorney! GREAT investigator.
I’m still curious to find out about “The Cabin”
that Ashleigh asked Nathan about.
I think Wade’s still ‘thinking ‘about that cabin..😂😂
^ argh my bad ha
^ He can be found somewhere still staring at the ceiling. Thinking about it.
I wish someone more tech savy than me would pull up that meme for us. (hint, hint, Maquis, Betsy)
I found it again! 🙂
It’s priceless. I remember in real time LMAO when he did that. He jerked everbody’s chain with this. After he is arrested and does his time, he should get a Sag-Aftra award lol
😊 Thanks.It one of a kind…😂
Gads…that is one DUMB N****R
The “Stabbin’ Cabin”?
I remember that blonde woman atty Merchant she was terrific!
I enjoyed that Nathan Wade testimony, I sheepishly admit. I will not soon forget the interminably long stare at the ceiling as Wade struggled with his memory in repose lol
Retired Magistrate here: Merry Christmas President Trump; what a great gift.
Just can’t leave that old career behind?
Marcia is a long-time and valued friend of the Treehouse.
Merry Christmas, Marcia! I hope you are enjoying your beautiful surroundings and your dear people this season!
And you can’t seem to leave your snot-nosed childish comments to yourself!
Halloween your favorite holiday???
Ah, but it’s only the 19th, Marcia, and Trump has obviously been on the Nice list. There are still:
The Second Circuit appeal of the E. Jean Carroll verdict.
The NY Supreme Court-Appellate Division (the intermediate appellate court, not the highest state court) appeal of the real estate valuation fraud verdict.
And it was just revealed that Trump has moved to dismiss the criminal conviction for the FEC violations claiming juror misconduct. Merchan has redacted almost the entire statement of facts -lots of interesting material underneath all that black.
I really appreciate your willingness to succinctly summarize and explain the legal mumbo jumbo that are these overlapping cases. And answering legal process questions as well. You and Marcia both. It’s helpful to those trying to follow along.
That Jean Carroll is another nut case of the highest order.
She’ll eventually find herself in a nasty mess, only a matter of time…She’s no Monica Lewinsky, that’s for certain.
Yes it is. 😄🎄
Good. It only cost him tons of $ and time away from running and family. It’s good to have a decent billionaire on our side.
Are you kidding?
PDJT is a sharp buisiness man, he MADE money from these indictments, both in donations and in free media coverage.
And, he can probably deduct those lawyers fees on his taxes.
You gotta be able to lay it out.
Winning!
The melanin-is-king thinking brought these two into power and led them to believe they could get away with everything.
If she’s proven to be compromised then all of her cases should be up for review. Let’s see if she gets re-elected… something tells me she’s untouchable.
She was just re- elected. Solid blue district…Not much chance of her going anywhere soon but her Governor chance might be over.
The voting public that reelected her deserve her. Water seeks its level.
Dodged a b*llet. Don’t know which is worse her or Stacey Abrams. Pray for Georgia. It is more important than a lot of people realize in the grand scheme of things.
Arrests for corruption should be next for these two Biden Admin lackeys
She’ll get the last laugh, because the next socialist governor of Georgia will give her a lifetime appointment to a bench within the legal system.
I think GA judges have to run for re-election.
Re-election was the reason the spineless trial judge in this case only required Nathan to leave – the judge was up for re-election, and didn’t want to offend a particular part of the electorate by disqualifying Fani, too.
💯 Exactly!
….. not to forget this tidbit, which could come back to haunt Kamela’s already imploding political career.
I can’t see the YouTube link that I posted below the above comment, but it’s there if you tap on it…. Weird!
And Billy Clinton meeting with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac in Phoenix.
Bye, Fani, sorry to see your fat ass go.
That was a nice law license you had there, Fani. Hope you don’t plan o live off of it.
Time to investigate the millions Fani acquired in real estate over the past few years?
But of course they’re not dropping the case…just her. Like Sundance predicts hoping it all falls apart from here.
Is any prosecutor really going to want to pick up the case from here, against PDJT’s co-defendants,?
Good point.
I’m wondering if Fanny can be sued by PDJT for election interference ?
So the Democrats/Uniparty/DOJ/FBI/IC/Lawfare fraudulent efforts to convict President Trump of a fake felony and prevent him from running have come to an ignominious end!! The conduct of Fani Willis and her lover have flamed them out in the Appeals Court! Next up I hope and pray is the odious, despicable NY AG Letitia James!!!
Fanni & Co. are now on the horns of a dilemma. She exercised prosecutorial discretion to bring these prosecutions in Fulton County. With this ruling, malicious prosecution, with a particularly large dose of selective prosecution, both violating the civil rights of President Trump and his co-defendants, is now on the table. President Trump’s co-defendants file their civil rights suits seeking damages, conduct discovery into the assistance of the Biden White House and DOJ with the assistance of the Trump DOJ, with President Trump waiving executive privilege for the Biden White House and DOJ, and no telling what we will find. Maybe enough to drag Garland and Smith into the Georgia courts as co-defendants.
I like it, MMP!
I’m hoping somebody leaks the Willis, Wade sex tapes and pillow talk. Maybe that will make her go away. They deserve ridicule and embarrassment.
I could go film my neighbors goat mounting the helpless Vietnamese pot belly pig if you want, I will send you the video, real cheap..
The Lawfare crowd will want to avoid a dismissal. A dismissal would give PDJT a possible cause of action for Malicious Prosecution. Can you imagine the discovery that would be available in such a case? Put Fani and Wade under oath to discuss their discussions with members of the Biden Administration. There are many skeletons in that closet.
They will have to go outside Fulton County to find a new prosecutor. Any newly assigned prosecutor will have to worry about carrying on the bogus case. Would that make the new prosecutor a co-conspirator with Fani and Wade? I doubt any prosecutor from outside Fulton County would dare to continue the case.
Malicious prosecution is a common law tort that occurs when someone files a lawsuit or other legal action without probable cause or for an improper purpose:
The victim of malicious prosecution can file a civil claim for damages against their prosecutor. Settlements can range from a few hundred dollars to millions, depending on factors like: documentation quality, time lost due to injuries, and economic losses such as medical bills.
We will see how just the DJT DOJ is.
In order to move forward, American needs to see light and justice brought to all of these lawfare events over the past 20+ years. Remember Lois Lerner?
I say it can’t happen no way, no how politically there’s just no climate for it ( if ever there was ) and the only way this **** got concocted is with the current mal-administration’s DOJ handholding those two idiots.
I do believe that at some point ( LIKE NOW ) some how, some way! people engaged in what is called “lawfare” but is tantamount to actual criminal collusive ( RICO THEY ASS(es)! ) behavior must be held to account legally/criminally – or else, this will never stop. Once the balance of power swings back – which it inevitably does )
But right now, today? Other than that remaining nuisance of the NYC Merchan/Bragg farce – This **** is finito!
Willis, the court has decided against you, don’t let the door hit you in the fani, as you leave.
Maybe Fanny can go complain in Church about racism against Black Females.
I was a little shocked that the “church” was so welcoming to a blatant adulterer.
Now we all need to call the Governor of Georgia and the AG to tell them these cases needs to go.
Among many others things they are based on an ILLEGALLY RECORDED phone call of the President of the United States. It was a scheduled call between two parties in a lawsuit and their respective attorneys.
Gov Kemp 404-656-1776
Georgia AG 404-656-3300
Tell them to end the illegal RICO case against ALL PARTIES named in their ridiculously frivolous and bogus lawsuit.
‘The Law Is the Law’—Attorney Cleta Mitchell Breaks Down Trump’s Georgia Election Lawsuit | American Thought Leaders

In this episode, we sit down with conservative political law attorney Cleta Mitchell, a partner at Foley & Lardner. She has been on the ground in Georgia assisting the Trump campaign in its legal efforts.
This is American Thought Leaders 🇺🇸, and I’m Jan Jekielek.
They won’t continue those other prosecutions once it becomes known that the prosecutions were coordinated with and directed by the Biden regime. That’s important to establish so that all the plea deals can be vacated and charges dismissed entirely.
FJB FKH FFW 😁👋🏻
This made my day- this arrogant , ignorant lawyer got exactly what she deserved…..,
That’s a load off!
“And put the load right on me…!”
The Band with the Staple Singers. What a beautiful slice of musical history.
And for just the pure pleasure of music and life:
The same song with lots of beautiful people.
Fawni should take a hint and really take the load off. Life is too short to be angry all the time.
What a lovely treat, musical interlude from the ugliness of the topic’s subjects.
Great way to differentiate it from the beloved original recording. Great song too.
the case has not been dropped, just will appoint another fa- a– commie dickhead….
A while ago Barnes had a Georgia attorney on who said that under Georgia law if Fani Willis is removed from the Trump case…the case is dead because it cannot be transferred to another agency to prosecute!
“… ‘no other remedy will suffice to restore public confidence in the integrity of these proceedings,’ Judge Trenton Brown wrote…”
Well, yeah, that’s a good statement, but the judge is badly mistaken if he really thinks that public confidence is somehow now restored–the whole mess just illustrates (again) why they are not and should not be trusted, no matter what kind of cover-up corrections they may make.
Too little too late. It should never have been necessary.
On the too little front, all her cases should have been dismissed on the spot, with prejudice.
Sidney Powell should not have plead out.
My heart breaks for Sidney but at her age and the swamp she was up against, I don’t blame her. Trillions are at stake and she couldn’t fight it…
It’s very heartbreaking-her entire life built around respect for the law; fidelity to the American system and the pursuit of justice, only to find out that all of the instruction and case law and professional community and legal history and tradition was meaningless in the face of politics. There’s been way too much evil like this over the past 15 years.
She has seen clients go to the Slammer. She has heard the stories.
Agreed , the largest failure of our legal system is the inability to fight injustices if one is not wealthy . Lawyers by and large do not care about righting wrongs , they care only if they get paid.
I agree some like Powell have actually been victimized and severely harmed by this whole “20 election fraud, in myriad ways. Then there is Tina Peters who if forced to serve out her entire term? I can’t say it.
There must be harshly punitive retribution meted out by the new administration. This cannot stand.
She was compromised in some other way. Or, bought off by the Deep State. There is no other explanation why she cooperated with Fani and pled.
Without her plea, and the other lady that pled, Fani’s case would have crumbled even sooner.
Fulton County Jail is one of the worst in the Country. People die there awaiting trial and sentencing, all the time..
Fani disqualified.
This Georgia resident taxpayer, property owner, and registered voter says BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
We’re watching a new soap opera:
“As the Lawfare Crumbles”
Beautiful!
Fani will go on television and let you know that the Georgia Court of Appeals comes to this decision because she is black and a woman.
I hope Alina goes after Fani. Let Fani spend a few million on legal fees. She needs to really understand the repurcussions of criminal behavior.
Now let’s focus on Juan Merchan, his mystery wife, his Dem operative daughter, etc.
He is afraid to move in any direction with this case ; he knows any ruling he makes will get bounced at the next level of the judicial system .
Jeff Clark: Fani Willis Hired Her Boyfriend Nathan Wade At Elevated Pay Rate, Took Lavish Trips ‘Caught With Her Hand In The Cookie Jar’

Willis should be disbarred, NOT Rudy Giuliani or Jeff Clark!! There have been so many people undeservedly hurt by this 💩 LAWFARE!!💁🏻♀️
It’s exactly what the Communists want to do to us,the Deplorable, smelly Walmart shopping, Bible believing, PDJT voters. Thank God he’s standing in the way…
The Bolsheviks are in charge of the courts, the judges and the state bar associations. Until they are removed they won’t stop using Lawfare!
RICO, Soviet!!
Use AI and the NSA database and unravel the entire Communist Conspiracy which dates back to two months before our Founding.
Largest prosecution in world history.
Furthermore, I consider that the Derp State MUST be destroyed!!
^^^^💯
It’s about time.
And Biden will PARDON them all!!
The Foni we thought you were.
Someone needs to prosecute that angry hag.
This is why Lawfare succeeds…
Judge Tanya Chutkan: A Radical Marxist in a Robe Waging War on America
The American judiciary, once the pillar of fairness and justice, has been infiltrated by ideologues hell-bent on dismantling the Constitution. Nowhere is this more evident than in the actions of Judge Tanya Chutkan, whose record reveals a blatant bias against conservatives and an unrelenting dedication to advancing the radical Marxist agenda.
Elevated to power by Barack Obama, Chutkan has become a symbol of the weaponization of the judiciary, earning her the moniker “Antifa Woman of the Year” for her unapologetic allegiance to leftist extremism. In essence, Judge Chutkan is Susan Rosenberg in a robe—a revolutionary hiding behind the gavel.
Judge Tanya Chutkan’s Marxist worldview is no coincidence—it is her legacy. Her maternal grandfather, Frank Hill, was a communist revolutionary in Jamaica who co-founded the socialist People’s National Party (PNP). Hill’s radical collectivist policies devastated Jamaica’s economy and future, leaving a legacy of economic stagnation and political instability. This ideology runs through Chutkan’s veins.
Barack Obama, a president known for his affinity for anti-American radicals, handpicked Chutkan for her role on the D.C. bench. Her appointment was part of a calculated effort to infiltrate the judiciary with operatives loyal to the far-left cause. Chutkan’s actions reveal her true intent: to transform the judiciary into a weapon for silencing dissent, crushing political opponents, and advancing a collectivist, anti-American vision.
Tanya Chutkan’s record draws chilling parallels to Susan Rosenberg, the notorious left-wing domestic terrorist involved in bombings and violence during the 1980s. While Rosenberg’s crimes included bombing the U.S. Capitol and plotting armed insurrections, she has since been embraced by the left and now lectures on “justice reform.” Chutkan, from her bench, embodies the same revolutionary spirit as Rosenberg—though her tools are judicial rulings, not explosives. Like Rosenberg, she operates with a disdain for the Constitution, using her position to advance a political agenda that threatens the very fabric of America.
Her rulings consistently punish peaceful conservatives while excusing violent leftist radicals. Her disproportionate sentencing of January 6th defendants, compared to the leniency shown to Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters, is a glaring example of her willingness to apply “justice” selectively to favor her ideological allies.
For her role in enabling and excusing leftist violence while ruthlessly punishing conservatives, Judge Tanya Chutkan has rightly earned the title of “Antifa Woman of the Year.” Her courtroom is not a place of impartiality but a battlefield for ideological warfare, where justice is secondary to advancing the Marxist agenda. Chutkan doesn’t merely sympathize with Antifa and BLM—she embodies their mission from the bench, using her rulings to undermine the Constitution and silence opposition.
Chutkan is not an anomaly. The D.C. bench has become a breeding ground for radical leftist judges who operate with impunity, insulated by a jury pool steeped in the same ideology.
It’s time for Congress—especially House Republicans—to abandon strongly worded letters and media statements and do their jobs. Impeachment exists for a reason, and it’s long overdue. Radical judges like Tanya Chutkan, who have turned the judiciary into a political weapon, must be removed from the bench to restore faith in the justice system.
Every Republican Senator voted to CONFIRM foreign born Chutkan as a federal judge!
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/judge-tanya-chutkan-radical-marxist-robe-waging-war/
Red-Diaper Monster.
Ban Communism, eliminate all organizations that support it, prosecute every lawfare operation as Conspiracy and Sedition against the Constitution and the Citizenry.
RICO, Soviet!!
Da!
Every Republican Senator voted to CONFIRM this foreign born Red-Diaper Monster from Jamaica!
WTF were these idiots thinking. Apparently, they have never dealt with a Jamaican woman!
Trump better have a pardon ready for Rudy in 24 hours when he takes office. If anyone has taken the brunt of this lawfare so far it has been him. He deserves much better than this.
A multimillion dollar settlement from the DOJ for targeting Rudy Guiliani and violation of his civil rights along with the federal prosecution of Ruby Freeman and the dismissal of the insane judgment against Rudy Guilani!!!
I would bet NOBODY in esteemed public life could survive a legitimate investigation of the depth or duration that POTUS Trump has for the last several years! NOBODY! The Dems have used this premise to ruin countless Conservative careers, lives and reputations over the years, SO WHY HAVEN’T THE REPUBLICANS RESPONDED IN KIND? You’ve just witnessed the power of two unelected people, Vivek and Elon, raising public awareness to knock the Democrats back several steps. They have also talked about PRIMARYING particular politicians too! The single most useful fear for politicians is being KNOCKED OFF THE HOG TROUGH OF KONGRESSIONAL PORK! This tool could get rid of RINOs, stiffen the spine of many and bring about a few scarce ethics in Congress! I’m betting Schiff, Pelosi, Durbin, Jeffies, Soros, Obama and many many more could be persuaded to keep the spotlight turned off! (Isn’t this precisely how Obama and Soros creates RINOs?)
The election integrity movement needs a boost prior to the 2026 election cycle. Trump’s DOJ must quickly do a full investigation of the 2020 election steal and also the 2022 and 2024 Arizona and California election steals. With prosecutions of the fraudsters where the statute of limitations hasn’t run out. Including James Clyburn and Marc Elias.
And Fani Willis too if it can be proven that she did, with clear intent, violate the civil rights of those she has prosecuted by using false charges of election interference as a means of preventing their free speech while also attempting herself to improperly influence an oncoming election.
Don’t forget Ruby Freeman and broken toilet in the Atlanta Stadium that facilitated the ballot count shutdown and fraud.
Two DEI legal careers in the dumpster, just for TDS.
Wrong call, which proved neither ready for prime time.
Stop setting the bar so low, for the bar.
Enuff of this bytch wh***..charge her and make her bail payable in ca$h only..
