The House Judiciary Committee is launching an investigation into Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, demanding the prosecutor turn over key information detailing the criminal indictment of former President Donald Trump over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
In a letter sent by Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan on Thursday, the committee leader accused Willis of using the 41-count indictment to interfere with the presidential election, of which Trump is the current GOP front-runner. The request for information comes just hours before Trump is expected to surrender himself to Fulton County officials for his arraignment in the case.
The indictment also detailed instances in which Trump and his allies pressured local election officials, made false claims of voter fraud, and concocted a plan to recruit a fake slate of electors to certify a victory for Trump rather than Biden. Eighteen other people were indicted alongside Trump on similar charges, including former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, and former Trump adviser John Eastman, among others.
Jordan pointed to a fundraising website highlighting her investigation into Trump, which launched just days before Willis announced the criminal charges against the former president. Jordan also cited comments made by Emily Kohrs, who serves as the forewoman of the special Fulton County grand jury, in which she “bragged” about “the prospect of subpoenaing President Trump.”
