The District Attorney overseeing Donald Trump's Georgia election indictment threatened the wife of the chief prosecutor in Trump's case, an ethics complaint filed with the Georgia state bar has alleged. The complaint, filed by Atlanta resident, Stephen Kramer, also alleges that Willis misspent state funds with Trump prosecutor, Nathan Wade, with whom Willis was in a relationship.

Newsweek sought email comment from Willis' office on Friday. Willis denied all wrongdoing while testifying in February before the judge in Trump's election fraud case.

Kramer's complaint alleges that Willis, the D.A. for Fulton County, was making false claims in Wade's divorce case that Wade's wife, Joycelyn Wade, was harassing her. "One of the most concerning incidents in this case, in a long line of concerning incidents, is when D.A. Willis used her position to threaten Mr. Wade's wife, Joycelyn Wade, during their divorce proceedings," Kramer wrote. "D.A. Willis stated in a motion that Ms. Wade was trying to embarrass and harass her, and by extension, interfere and obstruct in the conduct of the [D.A.] election.

"Since that time, D.A. Willis admitted to an improper relationship with Mr. Wade, so Ms. Wade had every reason to determine how the marital money was being used before the divorce. This was not an unusual action by a divorcing couple."

Trump's side doesn't give up easily.

1. I really doubt this.

These motherfuckers just can't handle a strong, smart, black woman with power.

[OLDMDDEM]

3. I agree with you.

[bluestarone]

2. THIS is how these monsters own people. They dig and dig and dig, then add a few LIES

They are out to DESTROY everything they can. TFG has so many fucking vultures in his family. What a bunch of total fucking CREEPS!

[Bayard]

4. What a load of crap

And even if a particle of it was true, would have nothing to do with prosecuting trump. He's after her because she WILL bring him down. And she's black. And a woman. And takes no shit.

[underpants]

5. Do we know when it was filed? Seems like a coordinated effort

mostly for PR, media, and social media fodder.

[Novara]

6. They will stop at nothing

in order to derail this prosecution.

But the thing is, since McAfee entertained this bullshit already, he can hardly refuse to have hearings on any other bullshit lies they make up.

We'll be lucky if this trial ever proceeds.

7. It appears this is the second ethics complaint filed by Mr. Kramer.

In mid-February, he and his co-complaintant Gregory Mantell (a former Atlanta Fox news anchor, now a "YouTube Investigative Journalist" a la Tucker Carlson) filed an ethics complaint alleging Willis mishandled county (and therefore) client funds. Ethics committee dodged the issue going into their March 7th meeting saying it was a matter for the courts.

Sooo..now we have round two from these same asshats. Not much direct content on Kramer other than his decision to release the transcript of his complaint on X and via Newsmax. Tells me what I need to know about what's behind his ethics concern.

8. Roll my eyes

[PortTack]

9. They can throw all the shit they want. Fani Willis comes from a point of strength and duty. Something

These ass hats have no conception of. She will not back down no matter!!

[Easterncedar]

11. Strength to Fani Willis.

She fights for us.

[Easterncedar]

10. Swift boating works. They lie and lie until they win.

Or until we stand up and defeat them.

[iluvtennis]

12. I call BS.

[emulatorloo]

16. Me too. Lying liars.

[Warpy]

13. The TFG bunch will just keep throwing shit hoping something sticks

I don't care whether or not she and a married prosecutor had a naughty weekend. People make messes of their sex lives, it's part of the human condition. Few of us marry in our teens, have that 2.3 kiddies, and hang on grimly until death doth us part in our 80s.

That happens so rarely it has to be considered an aberration. Most marriages are scarred by some level of cheating and both sexew stray.

Unless they can prove financial impropriety,or other crimes,all of this falls into the category of "none of your/my goddamned business and I honestly don't want to know, so shut the fuck up about it."

I am so tired of this shit. An ethics violation should produce a tangible crime, not allegations of a little hanky panky on the side.

Republicans, especially TFG, are supremely unqualified to cast the first stone.

[iluvtennis]

18. Well stated...totally agree with you. n/t

[intheflow]

14. Empty accusation.

"One of the most concerning incidents in this case, in a long line of concerning incidents, is when D.A. Willis used her position to threaten Mr. Wade's wife, Joycelyn Wade, during their divorce proceedings," Kramer wrote. "D.A. Willis stated in a motion that Ms. Wade was trying to embarrass and harass her, and by extension, interfere and obstruct in the conduct of the [D.A.] election."

Ms. Willis stated that Mrs. Wade tried to embarass and harrass her creating interference during the DA election. That is not a threat. It's a statement. Big difference from what Kramer is claiming without any proof whatsoever. I mean, if Mrs. Wade felt so threatened, why didn't she try to sue Willis? Why does this man think he has a dog in this fight?

[SunSeeker]

17. How is that a threat? It is a simple statement of fact.

[kimbutgar]

15. Boy they are getting desperate !

Next thing you know they’ll be throwing at kitchen sink at her!

[Oopsie Daisy]

19. Unlikely. I suspect instead that spurned spouses will say anything for revenge.

Or their sense of reality is more in-line with the "reality" of those real housewives shows... where a simple warning of "don't start with me (w)itch" is perceived as being a threat on their life.

[Bucky]

20. Can you imagine choosing between a crappy cheating about-to-be-ex husbands and harming the country

This spring is no time for summer patriots, former Mrs. Wade. Please bust his balls after the case is over with.

[Emile]

21. More bullshit delays?
