Nice touch.
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
Looks like lawfare can work in both directions.
The judge is like ‘I may not be almighty, but why don’t you tell me in legalize, instead of womanese sermonees, what happened’.
If they pull this DA's texts and emails she'll end up in the pokey, not Trump.
I don't see the relevance to Trump. It's an internal GA matter.
That's not to say that the case against Trump isn't corrupt to the core as well, but that's a different matter.
Prosecutorial projection of legal violations is karmic justice writ large.

Her he-hoe was even caught on camera brandishing a pistol because he's such a tough guy...which just adds to the delight in my opinion.
Big Fani Willis claimed at the church it was all racism. How to explain her lover's estranged spouse, who is black, going after Big Fani?
Oh how does it feel to be the target of a witch hunt sista. Except you are guilty .
at worst derail the investigation completely
At worst? The WaPo now thinks it is ok for a DA to abuse the justice system for personal gain so long as it is also to the detriment of the defendant. Yet they wonder why Trump isn't despised. You really can't have a low enough opinion of the news media.
On Thursday, Willis sought to quash that subpoena, accusing Joycelyn Mayfield Wade of using the divorce case “as a vehicle to harass” her and of colluding with others to disrupt the racketeering case against Trump and his allies....
Willis can dish it out, but can't take any incoming! Goes along with her church screed.
Will probably find Trump guilty of defamation without even a trial.
Good! I want this prosecution to stick. So let's eliminate all doubt about any impropriety. Get a hearing, and get to it without delay. And let's see if Trump supporters are involved with the divorcing lady's legal maneuvers.
It seems that the alleged cheating husband lawyer may not have been filling in his real wife about his income. If he did take a bunch of expensive vacations with Fanni he would have to pay his future ex half the total he spent on himself and Fanni, that was her share of the income. So the W2 he gets from Fulton County and all his vacation travel expenses will need to be discovered in divorce court, to see how they add up.
He may not have enough left to pay her off. Just because it is a no fault state the payments are not moot, as they would determine his income for alimony/child support and for community property. His future ex has a right to see them in detail. If he makes $650,000 per year he will pay a lot of alimony or child support, assuming she makes less than that and/or has kids.
I'm expecting some biting and hair-pulling.
Fani Willis has responded with the Claudine Gay defense — it’s racissssst to hold a black woman to the same stands of behavior as you would apply a white male, or any white person, for that matter. Or words to that effect.
"At least be embarrassing"? Either she did nothing wrong and so shouldn't be embarrassed or she misused her position to profit personally (and/or for her affair partner to profit personally) and should pay whatever penalty Georgia law has for that. What it does or doesn't do to the case against Trump is a separate matter. It shouldn't derail anything if they have built a solid case, should it?
I can't imagine why she thinks her affair partner's wife would want to harass her.
"... accusing Joycelyn Mayfield Wade of using the divorce case “as a vehicle to harass” her ..."
Well, when you are named after your own backside, you have to expect a certain amount of her-ass-ment. It does seem a bit extreme, divorcing her husband just to annoy Fani Willis, but that's what these MAGA Republicans are like.
The real question here, for anyone who has seen a picture of Joycelyn Mayfield Wade, is what the fuck was boy-toy thinking? But I guess maybe the answer is that he was thinking with his wallet, for a change. Man does not live by broad alone.
Heck, let's cut to the chase. Who's going to play Fani in the movie?
Well I'm tempted to say that Fani Willis used taxpayer money to throw her boy toy a bone.
But while she used taxpayer money to pay her boo, he's hardly a boy toy. You've got consenting adults--or should I say adulterers---in their early 50s. Whatever happened between the sheets stays there. But, there's this problem about the money . . .
Should Fulton County taxpayers foot the bill for their frolics?
And yes their fooling around doesn't directly have anything to do with whether Trump will or will not be convicted of "something". OTOH Fani's boyfriend has no experience in trying such cases--and Fani had some assistant DAs on her staff who could have handled the Trump job.
Looks like lawfare can work in both directions.
Except this isn't lawfare.
Fanny will be ‘exonerated’ so the judgement against Trump will be beyond criticism…Ann will spend two days repeating how it’s ‘time to move on’…
Best and Brightest!

"His future ex has a right to see them in detail. If he makes $650,000 per year he will pay a lot of alimony or child support, assuming she makes less than that and/or has kids."
-----
From Yahoo news:
"While the criminal case plays out publicly, Wade must contend in court with his estranged wife, Joycelyn, a stay-at-home mother for 20 years. Her lawyers complained in court filings that he “knowingly obstructed” her efforts to obtain information about his finances amid the divorce."
-----
His wife was a stay-at-home mother for 20 years and apparently has no "career" other than being a wife and a mother (hard work as we all know) to fall back on. No matter your business field, returning to it after 20 years is almost impossible. Hiding his income to reduce the amount of alimony and c.s. to be paid, is a big big no-no.
“I can't imagine why she thinks her affair partner's wife would want to harass her”
Hell has no fury like a woman scorned.
“‘Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned’ is one of two famous quotations from a largely forgotten Restoration play by William Congreve, The Mourning Bride (1697). The other line which is often quoted from Congreve’s play is ‘Music has charms to sooth a savage breast.’ This is often misquoted as ‘Music hath charms to soothe a savage beast’ (and ‘soothe’, in fact’, is often spelled as ‘sooth’ in printings of the play).”

The default amount for child support for one child down there is 25% of net income.
He's going to get a big bill, and little sympathy from his family court judge.
(But how this will affect Trump's position is unclear.)
No comment on the hired (at a hefty premium) attorney meeting with the Biden administration and charging for that meeting?
How does a meeting like that further the "legitimate" case against Trump? Sure makes the case look like political hit not a "real concern" about RICO.
I said before that Fani Willis seems to be the kind of person who would commit election fraud.
Now I will say the same about her lover, Nathan Wade.

IANAL but I would at least argue that the flow of money from Willis to Wade and back again in the form of vacations at least raises questions about Wade's decisions affecting the course of the investigation. He had a powerful incentive to keep investigating and filing charges even if a 'reasonable prosecutor' might have declined to pursue. Prosecutorial discretion works both ways, I hope.
Like sands thru the hour glass.... these are the days of our lives.
pffft- Low grade people are in charge.
The $2000 he billed for consulting with the Biden administration on the Trump persecution seems like the bigger issue. If that actually occurred the whole case should be dropped.
All I can say is the boyfriend special prosecutor must have spent a lot of time with his eyes closed and thinking of England........or the Roman Empire.
Mike Sylwester: "I said before that Fani Willis seems to be the kind of person who would commit election fraud.
Now I will say the same about her lover, Nathan Wade."
With Raffensberger as an election fraud co-conspirator and Kemp and his AG providing political cover for all of them.
They put the "Uni" in Uniparty.

If the special prosecutor was a corrupt appointment, then, at the very least, the Fulton County DA's office will have to call a new grand jury and start over.
The PBS article on this is pretty good.
The divorce lawyer, Andrea Hastings, says that her client wants to "resolve her divorce fairly and privately." And she says no more to the press.
So she's on the high road. Fani is on the low road.
After wrecking the woman's marriage, Fani accuses her of having "conspired with interested parties in the Criminal Election Interference Case to use the discovery process to annoy, embarrass and oppress" Fani. And she said it was "obstructing and interfering" with an ongoing criminal case.
It sounds like the DA is ready to charge her with crimes! How dare you try to subpoena me, woman.
Why don't you arrest her and her lawyers, Fani, see how that goes.
She's divorcing her husband that you stole!
The district attorney’s lawyer wrote that Nathan and Joycelyn Wade have been separated for more than two years and are involved in “an uncontested no-fault divorce” and there is an “absence of any relevant basis” to question Willis.
I don't know what's crazier. Accusing the wife of crimes for serving a subpoena? Or insisting that your slush-fund adultery with her husband is irrelevant to her divorce?

And that is EXACTLY the way it is in 2024 and has been for some time.
Fani wants to quash the subpoena and stay the hell out of that divorce proceeding.
And now all these liberal newspapers want the divorce judge to unseal the divorce court records.
“The public interest in this matter cannot be overstated,” the group wrote.
Now that's bad, when liberal newspapers join the vast right-wing conspiracy.
We're all out to get you, Fani!
Fani hires Wade as an outside contractor on Nov 1, 2021.
He files for divorce the next day.
Quid pro quo?
Divorce judge has already held him in contempt for hiding documents about his income.
Politico joins the vast right-wing conspiracy. Welcome!

Too funny.

has anyone looked at into how this is being covered by AJC
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's complete coverage of the Georgia indictment against then-President Donald Trump and his allies, accused of illegal attempts to overturn his defeat in the 2020 election. The historic probe is led by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Mary Beth suggested and asked (I think rhetorically, but I want to discuss): “What it does or doesn't do to the case against Trump is a separate matter. It shouldn't derail anything if they have built a solid case, should it?”
If this was a solid case about whether hypothetically Trump tried to bribe the Georgia Governor to overturn the election, then the external behavior of the DA ought not matter. However, the case brought against Trump by Willis is a RICO charge. She has claimed that Trump having a strategy meeting with his advisors in the White House on how to challenge the Georgia results as racketeering. At the same time the DA is coming up with this claim, she is hiring her married side piece to be a special investigator and he’s meeting with the Biden White House and expensing the trip against to the funds for the trying Trump and taking the DA on vacations. Oh and she is also paying her booty call more than other attorneys working the case while claiming in public that she does not show favoritism. All of this involves the case against Trump, so how do you untangle the DA’s behavior of planning with the Biden White House, sexual relationships and favoritism to hired staff, and an already politically charged trial? It is a clear abuse of power by the DA, who is arguing Trump abused his power. This isn’t a “takes one to know one” playground argument to take into court.
This must be that, "content of their character", shit MLK was goin' on about.

"... accusing Joycelyn Mayfield Wade of using the divorce case “as a vehicle to harass” her ..."
Woman, you went on expensive vacations (the tickets he bought for the CA trip were first class, not coach, I can tell from the price. The Miami wines were probably first class, too) and had sex with her husband while he was still married. She has every right in the world to want to "harass" you, and you deserve it.
