I'm personally shocked that a law-stretching bureaucrat best known for stretching the law for personal gain was caught stretching the law for personal gain!

I've seen wives get back at their husbands for cheating, but I don't think I have ever seen this level of payback.

We have hate crime laws in most states, if not at the federal level. Sorry, I have not checked my facts for this. But it seems to that there should be equally severe punishments for public officials who abuse their public trust. This undermines our entire governing process. This is corruption that destroys our economy & country. Were we to have a truly color blind justice for this sort of crime it would fall also under the claws of embezzlement & misuse of public tax payer money. It would great to apply that law to the members of Congress as well. Regardless of their race, gender or length of ‘service’.

"Willis chose to respond by giving a speech at the Bethel AME Church in Atlanta, in which she decried the expectation that black women be perfect"

Doesn't this just cover the entire woke playbook? The US became the greatest country on God's green earth because it was formed as a pure meritocracy. Certainly there are always flaws in that purity because real productive merit can be corrupted by political and criminal "merit"; however, no other country was formed on this idea of human equality and freedom to pursue self-interest without pre-existing rules of social hierarchy.

Then we went crazy changing out economy and over-educating the population. We eliminated so many paths toward productive achievement and launched a sea of people that would only seek staus and wealth with political and criminal pursuits. And many of them are lawyers... where they can play the game carefully to mitigate risks for their own missteps.

But they needed a bigger boost because the US is still a country that favors productive merit. So in comes the Theory-based woke movement... a favoring of the less talented, less capable, less moral, less good... person... because she is a black female.

This is exactly what is destroying the country. Nobody should get any advantage or pass because of their race, gender or sexual orientation. Once we alow that the Great Experiment is dead.

Thanks for the clarification on this issue. Good article.

Fanny Willis has decided to change her name to Fani and pronounce it "Fawny." Not certain of the provenance of either pronunciation but since Fanny seemed a bit tartish it had to go. Strangely, Stormy Daniels has just done the same thing; from this day hence it is to be pronounced "Stawmy" Daniels, and she claims she is now a clean living paragon of maternal goodness residing in suburban Connecticut and is currently a member of the Greenwich Boat and Yacht Club.

So next time you hear Fawny, think Stawmy, and always remember: it ain't easy being a lady.

Also, in saying it's all racist, she somehow overlooks the fact that the 2 other attorneys aren't sleeping together, taking lavish vacations on the taxpayer's dime, or getting highly overpaid. Thanks for this. I've been wanting to learn more about this but just haven't had the chance to do the research.

In many ways this comes down to human nature. Applied to racism it goes like this.

Most people have a problem with racism. the main assumption is that it is wrong to make judgments about people based on their immutable characteristics. I would put Brad's audience in that category of course. however, there is a significant number of people who object to racism because they have been subjected to it. these are the people who spouted that racism is based on power who immediately upon power started projecting racism (you can stop raising your hand Mr Kendi.) but it is also the white people who are all of the sudden upset about racism now that it is happening to them. they never gave a damn before.

Same holds for the "evil rich" analogy. (Rish being anybody with more money then me.) But my point is that I believe Willis felt she was entitled to do whatever she wanted because she was in power now and this is what powerful people do.

There are, unfortunately, thousands of these hustler/grifters in public positions in blue cities and regions, protected by their melanin shields, almost completely impervious to real-life consequences.....

I was waiting for this. I knew Brad would be scribbling away as this news came out.

People like Fani Willis think they are above the law, or immune to any scrutiny. Its been hammered into her head that she is part of a protected class, and can hide behind accusations of racism and sexism any time she is called out. And it has worked. Why wouldnt she abuse her office, and then have the nerve to declare herself a martyr??? Its the only game she knows, and as an underachieving, under qualified grifter, it has gotten her very far in life.

I guess the race card is all she has left.

DEI. If she was a white man she’d be marginally employed.

Just curious about one point. These two statements appear to be contradictory:

'Fulton County announced that it would use a special grand jury whose purpose would not be to indict anyone, but to gather evidence—this, even though “the makings of a hard-to-challenge criminal conviction were already there.”'

'Some prosecutors would likely balk at the tenuous connections used to sweep Trump into this grand conspiracy theory,'
