It's a Dumb Ass Question!' Anti-Trump Prosecutor Who Was Disqualified for Misconduct Rages at Hearing

"During Wednesday's hearing, a member of the Georgia Senate committee asked Willis if she and Wade had any conversations prior to you taking office relative to an investigation into the 2020 election. A member of Willis's counsel immediately jumped in and told Willis not to answer the question. He then argued that knowing what goes on in a district attorney's mind was privileged information."

"In response, a member of the committee claimed she wasn't a district attorney at the time. After some more back-and-forth between the committee and Willis's counsel, the member of Willis's team finally turned to her and asked if she wanted to answer the question. It's a dumb ass question! Willis said. The response drew laughter in the room. I didn't know that he was gonna commit a crime prior to me taking office! Like, factually, it's impossible."

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis appeared at a Georgia Senate hearing to address her election interference case against President Donald Trump. Last December, an appeals court disqualified Willis from prosecuting the case after finding that her romantic relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade influenced the ruling. The court originally disqualified Wade alone before the appellate ruling barred Willis as well. During the hearing, a committee member asked whether Willis and Wade had discussed an investigation into the 2020 election prior to Willis taking office. Willis's counsel objected and declined to let her answer, arguing such thoughts are privileged. Willis rejected the premise, calling the question unreasonable and stating she could not have known Wade would commit a crime before she took office.
