Fani Willis Tears Into Jim Jordan Over His Inquiry Into Trump Indictment-World-Wire

Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis on Thursday rebuked House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan for his decision to investigate the Georgia election interference probe that led to the indictment of former President Donald Trump and 18 other defendants.

In a letter, Willis, a Democrat, accused Jordan, R-Ohio, of overstepping his congressional authority with his recent requests for information pertaining to her investigation.

Willis, who was responding to a letter Jordan sent late last month, said there is "no justification in the Constitution for Congress to interfere with a state criminal matter."

Trump was charged in Fulton County last month with felony racketeering and numerous conspiracy counts in a 41-count indictment, which named 19 defendants. Jordan announced that he was launching a congressional probe into Willis' investigation shortly before Trump surrendered at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta.

"The obvious purpose" of Jordan's requests, Willis said, "is to obstruct a Georgia criminal proceeding and to advance outrageous partisan misrepresentations." She said his public statements and the recent letter "make clear that you lack any legitimate legislative purpose for that inquiry."
