      Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been accused of having a romantic relationship with a top prosecutor in the case against Donald Trump. Mike Roman, who served on the embattled ex-president’s 2020 reelection campaign team, made the allegations on Monday but failed to provide hard evidence to back up his claims, RadarOnline.com has learned.

          I really hope it’s bullshit, but it’s going to a hearing

          I think that’ll be just fine

          Willis and her office have yet to file a response to the motion in Fulton County, The judge’s order gives the DA’s office until Feb. 2 to file a response.

          Willis did have a response in a separate case involving Wade on Thursday, though — Willis was subpoenaed to give a deposition in his divorce case. Responding to that subpoena on Thursday, the DA accuses Wade’s estranged wife of conspiring with people involved with the election interference case to attack Willis’ character and undermine the prosecution.

          Willis goes on to say Wade’s marriage was “irretrievably broken” and that her deposition was not needed in the unrelated matter. Willis accused Wade’s wife of having an affair and noted that a request to unseal the divorce docket, her subpoena and the motion making the allegations of impropriety all happened on the same day, Jan. 8.

            Sounds like the jealous ex wife is being used and exploited to attempt to throw a Hail Mary to get the case thrown out.

      If she did anything inappropriate that is separate from the election interference he’s being prosecuted for. Much like Stormy Daniels’ lawyer that is accused of ripping her off didn’t change the fact that she was paid hush money.

      I don’t see it as relevant to the prosecution. Separate matter they’re trying to exploit to muddy the water.
