Nothing screams "he's an innocent man and we want him to clear his name" than this:
A Republican-led effort to reprimand District Attorney Fani Willis after she brought charges against former President Donald Trump in Fulton County is poised to expand, as state and federal lawmakers pursue new efforts to sanction the prosecutor.
State Senate Majority Leader Steve Gooch said in an interview that Republican leaders could hold legislative hearings into whether Willis is using “her position in a political manner” after accusing Trump and his allies of a complex conspiracy.
The Dahlonega Republican also told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he sees Senate Bill 92, a new law that empowers a state panel to investigate and oust wayward prosecutors, as a powerful “tool in the toolbox” that Trump’s allies can deploy to delve into Willis’ use of public resources.
“We believe she is definitely tainted,” Gooch said. “She’s politicizing this, and we want to make sure these people get a fair trial and a fair shake.”
And Gooch (!) isn't the most mouth- frothing Republican/ Seditionist trying to obstruct justice:
Gooch noted there are limits to GOP attempts to exact revenge against Willis. He echoed other party leaders by condemning a fruitless petition by state Sen. Colton Moore, a first-term Republican, to force a special legislative session to impeach Willis. Such a maneuver requires support of three-fifths of the Legislature, meaning it needs Democratic votes.
Translation: this is all for show and going nowhere.
And then, there are those January 6 coup - adjacent Congresscreeps from Georgia working fruitlessly at the Federal level:
The two initiatives are part of a broader effort by Trump’s allies at the Georgia Capitol and the U.S. Congress to punish Willis over the 51-count indictment, which accuses Trump and 18 co-defendants of a sprawling “criminal enterprise” to reverse his 2020 defeat.
U.S. Rep. Andrew Clyde wants to use an upcoming appropriations bill to slash federal funding for Willis, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and federal special counsel Jack Smith. Each is a top prosecutor in one of the four cases Trump is currently facing.
And U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Rome, is among the GOP members who urged the House Judiciary Committee to launch an investigation into how much her office receives in federal dollars and whether it has interacted with White House officials.
Once again, red meat for the MAGAt knuckle- dragging base, but going nowhere.
Every effort at the state and federal judicial level to head off prosecution of the Malignant Loser has to be seen as what it is, an obstruction of justice. The obvious question is why would an innocent man and his supporters not want to clear his name as soon as possible? The answer lies in the low nature of the people and the fascist rot in the party/ cult engaged in this behavior.
BONUS: State Sen. Moore is quite the unhinged MAGAt.
