House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan shot back Wednesday at Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis for her response to the committee’s investigation into her prosecution of former President Donald Trump, saying it’s clear that the criminal case is motivated by “advancing a political cause” and her bid for “notoriety.”
Earlier this month, Ms. Willis expressed her disapproval for the committee’s decision to investigate the Georgia election interference case that led to the indictment of Mr. Trump and 18 others for racketeering charges. She accused Mr. Jordan of interfering with her case by overstepping his congressional authority.
“Your letter contends that the Committee, by conducting oversight into apparently politicized local prosecutions, is ‘obstruct[ing] a Georgia criminal proceeding’ and ‘advanc[ing] outrageous partisan misrepresentations,’” he wrote. “Your position is wrong.” “We can conclude from your hostile response to the committee’s oversight that you are actively and aggressively engaged in such a scheme,” Mr. Jordan wrote.
“If state or local prosecutors can engage in politically motivated prosecutions of senior federal officers for acts they performed while in federal office, this could have a profound impact on how federal officers choose to exercise their powers,” Mr. Jordan responded in his letter.
