Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against DA Fani Willis: ‘The Time to Act Is Now’

Georgia Republicans unveiled a one-two punch Friday targeting Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Last year, Willis secured the indictment of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants on allegations that they were involved in a conspiracy to interfere with the results of the 2020 election.

In recent days, Willis has come under fire amid allegations of a personal relationship with Nathan Wade, the prosecutor she hired to oversee the investigation of Trump. Documents released as part of Wade’s divorce case indicated the two have traveled together.

Republican state Rep. Charlice Byrd on Friday introduced a resolution calling for Willis to be impeached.

“With freedom on the line, bold action is necessary. It’s time for the legislature to do its constitutional duty and hold corrupt Fulton DA Fani Willis accountable, which is why I have introduced H.R. 872, articles of impeachment against Fani Willis,” Byrd wrote in a post on X.

The statement noted that “Willis
