Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on Thursday nixed a request by congressional investigators for documents related to her office’s correspondence with special counsel Jack Smith.

The denial is the latest indication the Peach State prosecutor intends to move forward with her racketeering (RICO) prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump. In fact, in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chair Rep. Jim Jordan, Willis says she is still committed to the long-stalled effort targeting the 45th and 47th president.

Earlier this month, in a letter dated Dec. 4, the Ohio Republican gave the Georgia Democrat a tight deadline of Dec. 9, to turn over documents related to her and her office’s discussions with various federal authorities about criminal investigations into Trump.

That deadline has now, of course, whooshed right on by. And Willis, for her part, does not seem too concerned about missing the cutoff.
