“You want something to investigate as a legislature, investigate how many times they’ve called me the N-word.”
During a Georgia Senate Special Committee on Investigations hearing on Wednesday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was triggered when investigators showed invoices from her former boyfriend Nathan Wade to the Fulton County DA’s office. Instead of responding to questions about them, she called for investigators to look into “how many times they’ve called me the N-word.” She had been called into the legislature to answer for alleged misconduct in her since-dropped 2020 RICO election case against Trump.
“I don’t review those documents,” Willis told lawmakers, “so you’re asking me to look at documents that I haven’t for the first time. What I can tell you is that I allowed Mr. Wade to bill 160 hours a week, and then Mr. Wade would be the first one in the office, making sure that my staff arrived. He corrected their behavior. They thought that 8:30 meant 8:30. He taught them that 8:30 means 7:45. He got there before them, he left after them.” The response came during questioning on how much special prosecutor Nathan Wade was paid. Willis said that she had never seen the invoices displayed during the hearing.
