‘DA Willis disqualified herself’: Trump opening brief says appeals court must remove ‘unethical’ Fulton County prosecutor from RICO case and dismiss indictment entirely

As the federal criminal cases against Donald Trump come to a close, the only remaining prosecution of the president-elect is the state election racketeering case out of Georgia — and special counsel Jack Smith’s latest filing might help put an end to that as well.

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., on Monday dismissed the election interference case against Trump, who was accused of trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election. While Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has repeatedly signaled her intention to continue prosecuting Trump — despite the fact that he will be sworn into office for the second time in January — Smith’s team formally conceding defeat likely means a similar end for Trump in the Peach State.
