Embattled Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis probably thought she would make a name for herself by prosecuting former President Donald Trump—maybe she’d become a bigwig in the Democratic party, maybe get some cushy administration post or at least a fat book deal. What she probably didn’t expect is that she herself would come under the microscope or that her affair with a prosecution attorney she'd hired (Nathan Wade) would come to light and he’d be booted off the case by the judge.
She probably also didn’t imagine that the House Judiciary Committee and its chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) would investigate her use of federal funds, but that’s what they’re doing, and Fani’s not happy about it. She appeared Monday on Rachel Maddow’s MSNBC show—where else—to tear into Jordan and anyone else she felt was standing in her way.
How dare anyone question her behavior:
“Jim Jordan has, time after time after time, attacked my office with no legitimate purpose,” Willis said in an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. “Anyone who knows Jim Jordan’s history knows that he only has the purpose of trying to interfere in a criminal investigation…”
She ultimately cooperated in the [Judiciary Committee’s] probe, which she labeled Monday as “illegitimate,” calling the Ohio Republican’s actions “disgusting.”
“He has now turned his tricks to, he’s going to look at grant programs, which I invite him to do. And we have complied with his subpoenas, but yet he continues his attacks to try to interfere in a criminal investigation,” she said. “All while his jurisdiction has one of the worst crime rates, has poverty issues.”

Willis faces a primary election Tuesday, and amazingly enough—despite her scandals and her pugilistic demeanor—she’s expected to prevail over challenger Christian Wise Smith.
But Jordan and the Judiciary Committee aren’t the only ones to suffer her wrath; she also lashed out at state investigators who are concerned about her use of funds.
“I bring that up at the federal level because now at the state level, they’ve decided to follow this clown’s lead, and they want to now try to interfere in an investigation,” she said. “And it’s not legitimate either.”
“And so, it shall fail, and it’s not going to go anywhere. But they are trying to attack me at every level,” she added.
Meanwhile, her election interference case against Trump is moving along at a snail’s pace, and there are questions as to whether it will actually get underway before the November presidential election. If the trial hasn’t concluded by then and Trump wins another term, the whole charade will be one big Fani Fiasco because the whole point was to stop Trump.
