Days before Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis is predicted to deliver her case to a grand jury, former President Donald Trump is renewing a lewd, baseless charge against the top prosecutor.
In a submit to Truth Social Sunday, Trump defended his habits, raged towards Willis, and as soon as again leveled the baseless charge.
“Why is “Phoney” (Like in PERFECT “PHONE” CALL, get it?) Fani Willis, the severely underperforming D.A. of Fulton County who is being accused of getting an ‘affair’ with a Gang Member of a group that she is prosecuting, leaking my title in regard to a Grand Jury referring to Election Fraud & Irregularities that I say came about in Georgia,” Trump wrote. “I made a PERFECT PHONE CALL OF PROTEST. What does Phoney Fani must do with me? She will have to as an alternative focus on the record number of murders in Atlanta!”
The reality-checking website Politifact dug into the declare and located no proof of a romantic relationship:
When Willis used to be a security attorney in 2019, she represented YSL Mondo in an aggravated assault case. Later as district legal professional, she prosecuted Young Thug, an associate of YSL Mondo, and other defendants, alleging that they had affiliations with gang violence.
YSL Mondo instructed Rolling Stone that he and Willis had a “cool relationship” and mentioned, “I done had auntie-to-nephew, mother-to-son form of talks with her.”
Mondo described Willis as a “nice legal professional” and recounted the final recommendation Willis gave to him: “She was like ‘don’t mess my name up now.’ You recognize I’m about to get able to run for this head DA. You f— around and do one thing else, I am going to sock it to your a–.”
Willis advised Rolling Stone in an e mail that “I believe I will be able to say I liked him. I’m hoping all is smartly … I endorsed for him with zeal. I have a tendency to satisfy my purchasers where they are. I hope you take into account what that suggests. I wish to see him do amazing things along with his lifestyles, and I hope that’s the place he’s headed.”
Nothing within the Rolling Stone article points to romance or a “hidden” relationship.
Trump, in any other submit this morning, added to his attack on Willis.
“The only Election Interference that passed off in Fulton County, Georgia, was once achieved by means of people who Rigged and Stole the Election, now not by means of me, who simply complained that the Election was Rigged and Stolen,” Trump wrote. “We now have Large and Conclusive Proof, if the Grand Jury would like to see it. Unfortunately, the publicity in quest of D.A. isn’t concerned with Justice, or this evidence.”
