2:57Now PlayingIt’s unfortunately commonplace to see the most powerful people in our government wear the cloak of unaccountability around their shoulders to ward off justifiable criticisms. NY Post contributor Adam B. Coleman shares this story.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis wore this cloak with bravado Sunday at Atlanta’s historic black Big Bethel AME Church.
After accusations against her of impropriety and an affair with the married special prosecutor she hired to oversee President Donald Trump’s RICO case, Nathan Wade, circulated for a week, Willis spoke for the first time, giving a 35-minute sermon to the predominantly black congregation.
“They only attacked one,” Willis lamented. “First thing they say, ‘Oh, she’s gonna play the race card now.’ But no God, isn’t it them that’s playing the race card when they only question one?
“Why are they so surprised that a diverse team that I assembled, your child, can accomplish extraordinary things?”
The affairs accusation came through a court filing made by Trump 2020 campaign official and co-defendant Michael Roman, who argues that Willis should be disqualified from the case and the charges against Roman dropped because “the district attorney chose to appoint her romantic partner, who at all times relevant to this prosecution has been a married man.”
