Georgia State Senator Greg Dolezal (R) wants to investigate former Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over a $2 million grant from President Joe Biden’s DOJ while she was probing President Donald Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election.
In February, Just the News discovered that the DOJ allegedly “invited” Willis to apply for a grant in 2022 as she started investigating Trump:
“I want to document your recognition of our progress and services provided with dynamic partners, as we complete sole source steps for our new grant award, a grant in which you invited us to apply,” Willis wrote to Justice Department Senior Policy Advisor Scott Pestridge in the Office of Justice Programs in December 2022.The district attorney was highlighting the Justice Department’s 2022 Office of Justice Programs Community Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative grant, from which her office ultimately received $2,000,000 to implement its programs, agency records show.That award, which was opened in April 2022 as a competitive grant, appears to have been provided to Fulton County as the “sole source,” according to the district attorney. The Justice Department defines a sole source procurement as “noncompetitive,” meaning no other entity competed against Fulton for the award.
Willis promised to put the money toward programs for “at-risk” youth.
However, $2 million is nothing compared to the $18 million Biden’s DOJ gave Willis’s office from 2021 to 2024.
Dolezal, who led the investigation into Willis’s witch hunt, wants answers.
“That’s really going to be the next phase of what we’re looking into is the tie to what could have been a carrot from the time that Joe Biden put up the bat signal on November 13,” Dolezal told Just the News. “I think it was where he said, ‘We’re going to ensure, by any means possible, that we demonstrate that Donald Trump will not take office.'”
Dolezal pointed out that Biden’s comment came out on the day former special prosecutor Nathan Wade spoke to the White House for eight hours.
“Now, of course, he can’t remember what that eight-hour conversation was about, but we’ve got our guesses as to what it was about,” added Dolezal.
Willis’s case fell apart almost from the beginning, but her actions stopped it in its tracks when Trump and some of his co-defendants argued that Willis should be removed because of her relationship with then-Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade, citing a conflict of interest.
A judge scheduled a hearing over the misconduct allegations, which led to a wild couple of days.
Willis admitted to a special relationship with Wade, but claimed it ended before she appointed him as special prosecutor.
Weirdly enough, Wade accompanied Willis to the scene of her daughter’s arrest in September 2024, six months after the misconduct hearing. Hhmmmm….
Anyway, at the end of the misconduct hearing, the judge said either Willis or Wade had to step down.
Wade resigned from the case.
The Court of Appeals of Georgia eventually disqualified Willis from the Trump case.
The new prosecutor dismissed all charges against Trump and the defendants a few weeks after the 2024 election.
