‘Blistering': Former Acting AG Says Judge ‘Cut The Legs Out' Of Georgia Trump Case
BLUF:
[Daily Caller] Judge Scott McAfee ruled on Friday that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis must step down from the election interference case against former President Donald Trump unless she removes her former romantic partner and special prosecutor, Nathan Wade, from it over an "appearance of impropriety." Whitaker told Fox News host Martha MacCallum that the judge’s "blistering" opinion showed that Willis has "no credibility."
"Well, obviously the result was not what I think some people hoped for, but this opinion is blistering as it relates to DA Willis and Wade and others," Whitaker said. "I mean, it, you know, said she was unprofessional, said she lacked judgment."
"But the line that just struck me was that he said, ’An odor of mendacity remains,’" he continued. "I mean, that essentially says, your office and you as a DA have no credibility with me as a judge. And I just think that is, uh, you know, essentially says that you are lying, we know you’re lying, and we’re not gonna trust anything you say in this case from now on. That’s a big deal."
Emphasis added.
