Fulton County DA ordered to turn over election probe records to watchdog group

A judge in Georgia ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to turn over any records from special counsel Jack Smith or U.S. House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 Attack following a lawsuit from a conservative legal group seeking documents related to the DA's 2020 election interference case.

The order follows a March lawsuit from the conservative nonprofit group Judicial Watch, which sued Willis after Fulton County claimed it did not have any responsive records from either the special counsel's office or House Select Committee.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney on Monday ordered Willis to produce any records within five business days and determined that she violated the state's open records act by failing to respond to the lawsuit.

Judge McBurney granted judgement by default because Willis failed to make a "meritorious defense" and instead claimed she hadn't been properly served.

All that racist white supremacy. Very brave. Every RW action is an attempt to smokescreen their attacks on a free and fair election. Judges of course included.

And they will sell and most of our mainstream media will also push the lie that it is
all really Fani Willis’ fault and not Trump and the other coup birds who filled out
phony documents to be presented as legitimate electoral votes from Georgia.

America is truly fucked and with the help of Putin, Musk, and our dirty ass media
that is controlled by Republicans the criminals are about to take over our government
and burn it to the ground.
