Chairman Jim Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee are launching an inquiry into whether Fulton County DA Fani Willis coordinated with federal officials in an attempt to take down Donald Trump.
Jordan announced the inquiry in a Thursday letter addressed to Willis.
“It is noteworthy that just four days before this indictment, you launched a new campaign fundraising website that highlighted your investigation into President Trump,” Jordan wrote.
He continued, “Additionally, the forewoman of the special grand jury you convened to investigate President Trump earlier this year bragged during an unusual media tour about her excitement at the prospect of subpoenaing President Trump and getting to swear him in.”
I’m proud of @Jim_Jordan for leading on this.
We need to look deeply into the coordination of efforts between Biden’s DOJ and State DA’s. https://t.co/HgTFizsF2E

From Fox News:
Trump will turn himself in Thursday at the Fulton County jail in Atlanta after he was charged with 13 counts stemming from the state probe into his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in the state.
The court set Trump’s bail at $200,000, and he is expected to be quickly processed and released. Fox News Digital has learned his formal arraignment, where he is expected to plead not guilty, will take place sometime early next month.
It is expected that Trump will be required to take a mugshot. Others charged out of Willis’ probe, like former Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis and more, had their photos taken during processing.
