George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley dropped a truth bomb that hit Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis like a ton of bricks. The case against Donald Trump got a major smackdown after Judge Scott McAfee swooped in and tossed out six counts from the indictment Willis worked so hard to secure. It’s like the judge said, “Sorry, Willis, but these charges ain’t stickin’.”

Turley, being the legal guru that he is, pointed out that the ruling was a huge deal, especially because it involved those spicy accusations tied to a phone call Trump made on January 2, 2021, where he supposedly told Georgia officials to go find some votes. Now, that’s a messy drama! But Turley was not having it, saying that Willis didn’t exactly dot her i’s and cross her t’s when putting together the charges. It’s like trying to build a sandcastle without any sand – a complete mess.
The plot thickens though, as it turns out Willis and her buddy, special prosecutor Nathan Wade, were already under fire for their questionable behavior. Allegations of a romantic relationship between them had tongues wagging and lawyers squawking for disqualification faster than you can say “conflict of interest.” McAfee, the judge with the firm hand, had to step in and promise a decision soon on whether Willis should get the boot. The drama is better than a soap opera!
Turley didn’t hold back in his analysis, suggesting that if Willis wants to make a comeback with a new indictment, it’s gonna be like waiting for Christmas in July – a long wait ahead. And what about this whole racketeering claim? Turley’s not buying it, calling it a thin soup of accusations. It’s like trying to call a kitten a lion – just ain’t gonna cut it. So, buckle up, folks, ’cause this legal circus is just getting started, and it’s going to be a bumpy ride for Willis and her crew.
