Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis tried to humiliate and embarrass Donald Trump by forcing him to take a mugshot.
But that turned out to be a big mistake.
And a federal judge ordered the DOJ to hand over one set of internal documents that have Fani Willis and Jack Smith terrified.
Donald Trump faced an unprecedented campaign of lawfare after Joe Biden turned the Justice Department into his own personal political police force.
Biden’s lawfare resulted in 91 charges across four criminal indictments for Donald Trump.
New York Attorney General Letitia James, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, and Special Prosecutor Jack Smith all brought sham charges against Donald Trump.
Fani Willis hit Donald Trump and 19 co-defendants with RICO charges for contesting the results of the 2020 election in Georgia.
But Willis’ case soon fell apart due to scandals after it was revealed that she hired her love, Nathan Wade, to serve as a special prosecutor even though he had never tried a felony.
Wade even used the money to take the two on luxurious vacations.
Willis’ sex scandal ultimately resulted in her being disqualified from the case, effectively ending her witch hunt against Trump in Georgia.
But House Republicans aren’t about to let Fani Willis get away with her “politically motivated prosecutions” against Donald Trump.
Willis allegedly illegally coordinated behind the scenes with the January 6 Committee for her case.
She requested access to records and made a trip to Washington, D.C. to meet with the January 6 Committee.
In December, the House Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Fani Willis “requesting documents relating to her coordination with the January 6 Select Committee.”
Willis confirmed that the documents existed.
However, she “declined to produce such materials on the grounds that the materials were ‘protected from disclosure by attorney-client privilege, work product privilege, and other common law protections.’”
The Fulton County District Attorney’s Office made the same claim in a December court filing when it refused to hand over any new communications between Willis and Special Counsel Jack Smith.
But the Committee just sent employees of the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office a letter requesting the same information.
“The committee previously wrote to District Attorney Willis requesting documents relating to her coordination with the January 6 Select Committee,” the House Judiciary Committee wrote in a press release. “Because District Attorney Willis has declined to cooperate, the committee must pursue other avenues to obtain this information.”
Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Representative Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) fired off letters to several investigators requesting “all documents and communications” between the employees and “any member, staff member, agent, or representative of the January 6 Selection Committee.”
And a federal judge just intervened and slapped down the DOJ’s excuse for refusing to turn over the requested documents.
The judge wrote that the DOJ’s non-disclosure argument is no longer valid since the two federal cases against Trump have been closed.
“Since [the] DOJ filed its motion for summary judgment and supporting Declaration in March 2024, the Special Counsel’s criminal enforcement actions have been terminated,” the judge wrote.
“The cases are ‘closed—not pending or contemplated—and therefore are not proceedings with which disclosure may interfere,’” the ruling continued. “Thus, the agency’s sole justification for invoking the Glomar doctrine under Exemption 7(A) is no longer applicable.”
The judge ordered the Justice Department “to process the plaintiff’s FOIA request and either ‘disclose any [responsive] records or establish both that their contents are exempt from disclosure and that such exemption has not also been waived.’”

According to Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, the DOJ has until February 21 to hand over the requested documents to the court.
“President Trump truly needs to overhaul the Justice Department from top to bottom,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a press release. “It is a scandal that a federal court had to order the Justice Department to admit the truth that their objections to producing records about collusion with Fani Willis had no basis in reality.”
Fani Willis and Jack Smith broke the law in their quest to take down Donald Trump.
But Willis and Smith did not receive a pardon from Joe Biden.
And Jim Jordan and Barry Loudermilk are determined to hold them accountable for their crime.
