BREAKING: Bank records show that special prosecutor Nathan Wade purchased airline tickets in his and #Fulton County DA #FaniWillis’ name for trips to San Francisco and Miami
The info was contained in Nathan Wade's credit card statements, which were incl in a filing from his wife on Fri as part of their divorce case.
The filing appears to bolster allegations of a romantic relationship between Nathan Wade and DA Willis #legal#Georgia#TrumpIndictment
JOHN #EASTMAN just appeared on 5th fl of #Fulton Cty courthouse ahead of procedural hearing before Judge McAfee. Most of today's motions are from codefendant #HarrisonFloyd
As far as I can remember this is 1st time we've seen Eastman in Fulton since his surrender at cty jail in Aug
On the agenda: request from Team #Trump to compel prosecutors to hand over correspondence with the Jan. 6 cmte chair; motion from defendant Kutti's lawyers to drop her as a client; request from #Giuliani to interview the 4 defendants who took pleas; outstanding RICO issues #TrumpIndictment#legal
Just in: #Fulton Judge McAfee is granting #Trump defendant Shawn Still's request for a stay from "all aspects of the case" until April 18, a few weeks after the legislative session ends. Still, who was charged for his role as a Trump elector, is a state senator #Georgia#TrumpIndictment#legal
In #Fulton County, Judge Scott McAfee denies several motions filed by #Trump co-defendant #HarrisonFloyd. According to McAfee, the motions are overly broad, vague, or lack specificity.
Don’t judge the lawyers too harshly. These are boilerplate motions that routinely filed in #Georgia state-level criminal court cases. The attorneys think they’re preserving appellate rights by filing them.
New: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a criminal referral against #Fulton DA #FaniWillis and her staff with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and AG Chris Carr. It cites the bombshell allegations from Monday's court filing from defendant Mike Roman
Worth reiterating that we haven't seen evidence yet backing up Roman's claims, nor have we heard from DA Willis, who says she'll respond in an upcoming court filing. #legal#Georgia#TrumpIndictment
The flurry of pretrial motions has officially begun ahead of Monday's deadline for all but a handful of the remaining 15 defendants in #Fulton.
Defendant Shawn Still, a state senator who was indicted for his role as a #Trump elector, is opposing DA #FaniWillis' proposed Aug. 5 start date. He says it's unfair to start a trial in the heat of his re-election campaign. #legal#TrumpIndictment#Georgia
BREAKING: #Trump#Georgia Co-Defendant’s Lawyers File Notice to Withdraw from RICO Case
Defense lawyers for Trevian Kutti, the former publicist for the rapper known as Kanye West, on Monday night filed notice they want to drop their client in the #Fulton County case #legal#TrumpIndictment 1/…
Happening today: At 9 am ET, a panel of judges on the 11th Cir. Court of Appeals will hear oral argument on #MarkMeadows’s efforts to remove his #Fulton County criminal charges to federal court.
You can listen to oral argument via livestream. #Georgia#legal
"At 9 am ET, a panel of judges on the 11th Cir. Court of Appeals will hear oral argument on #MarkMeadows’s efforts to remove his #Fulton County criminal charges to federal court."
It says criminal charges so did I lose track and we're now unintentionally talking about different things?
See how heartfelt they are? You can almost hear their regretful snickers, er, tears... 🤦🏻♀️

Two of the apology letters in the #Fulton Trump case - from Ken Chesebro and Sidney Powell and obtained by the AJC - were handwritten and just one line long. #Georgia#legal#TrumpIndictment
EXCLUSIVE: #Fulton prosecutors' witness list in the #Trump elections case includes several top #Georgia officials and former senior members of Trump's Justice Department, including Bill Barr, Jeffrey Rosen and Richard Donoghue.
You don't have to be a fan of #FaniWillis' investigation to find it bizarre that the entire basis of this "coordination" claim is that Willis made a routine request to #Jan6 committee to see their records (& we don't even know if the committee responded).

In a new letter, Jim Jordan—chair of GOP-led House Judiciary Committee—requests production of docs & other communications exchanged btw office of #Fulton Cty DA Willis & Jan6 Committee. #legal
Good morning from #Fulton County: I suspect we’ll see a motion to revoke Trevian Kutti’s consent bond for witness intimidation of #RubyFreeman within the next two hours and would not be shocked if she’s indicted again for an additional racketeering act by the Grand Jury #legal#TrumpIndictment#Georgia
NEW: Documents obtained by #lawfare raise questions about the previously unknown involvement of Robert Cheeley—a lawyer who is of Trump’s co-#defendants in the #Fulton County racketeering case—in the Coffee County #Georgia#voting system breach. The GBI failed to seek interviews w/ key witnesses & omitted relevant details in its report.
We have to wonder how many law enforcement agencies throughout the country are compromised by #maga pro-coup wanting to install a dictatorship.
NEWS: #Trump's #Georgia lawyer says that if he wins the presidential election in 2024, his #Fulton County trial could not go forward until he is out of office.
That would, in practical terms, mean Trump would not be tried for 2020-related conduct until 2029, according to his Georgia-based lawyer, Steve Sadow. #legal#TrumpIndictment
