#BREAKING
#Georgia judge ruled Friday that #FaniWillis should not be disqualified from prosecuting the racketeering case against #Trump and several co-defendants — with one major condition.

Judge Scott McAfee found "appearance of impropriety" brought about by Willis's romantic relationship with Nathan Wade should result in either Willis and her office leaving the case - or just Wade, who she'd appointed to head the case” 1/…

Key finding from GA decision: "Similarly, the Court further finds that the Defendants have failed to demonstrate that the District Attorney’s conduct has impacted or influenced the case to the Defendants’ detriment." page 7 ie No prejudice at all to the defendants.

Via Maya Wiley:

There was never sufficient evidence for disqualification of Fani Willis. Special prosecutor should now gracefully steps aside & the Judge shld allow no more salacious side shows that lack evidence.

4/ Weissmann:

"Other forums or sources of authority such as the Genl Assembly, Ga State Ethics Commission, State Bar of Ga, Fulton County Board of Commissioners, or the voters of Fulton Cty may offer feedback on any unanswered q’s that linger."

Key finding: "Similarly, Court further finds Defendants have failed to demonstrate that the DA’s conduct has impacted or influenced the case to the Defendants’ detriment." page 7 ie No prejudice at all to the defendants.

This isn't over. The Georgia republicans are going to do everything they can to protect Trump.

@Wileymiller Steve Sadow, Trump's lead Atlanta attorney, says "we will use all legal options available as we continue to fight to end this case"
