Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been disqualified from the Georgia case against Donald Trump. The ruling, issued Thursday morning by a panel of the state’s appellate court, deals what could be a fatal blow to the one remaining bid to hold the incoming president criminally liable for trying to steal the 2020 election. Willis began the year as a Democratic superstar who had already secured several guilty pleas against Trump’s co-defendants in the sprawling Georgia RICO case—all while being bombarded with racist and misogynistic threats and abuse. But her legal efforts were derailed when lawyers for one of the remaining defendants, Trump aide Mike Roman, uncovered a romantic relationship between Willis and Nathan Wade, the outside attorney she’d hired to manage the case.
