Judge in Trump Case Orders New Hearing | Facts Matter

On Thursday, the presiding judge overseeing former President Donald Trump’s RICO case gave Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis a hard deadline for when she must respond to these allegations in writing: “Judge Scot McAfee on Thursday ordered [Fani Willis] to respond to the allegations in writing by Feb. 2, and has scheduled a hearing on the matter for Feb. 15.”

This means that exactly two weeks from Friday, she has to submit her written response to these allegations—and then two weeks after that, there will be an actual live hearing where she has to explain herself to the judge about an alleged misuse of funds, and her alleged affair with a lead prosecutor.

This hearing is very consequential to the case.

If Ms. Willis is found to have engaged in improper behavior by the court, the case might be handed off to a different prosecutor in the county—who might very well choose to drop the charges against President Trump altogether.

Meanwhile, Maine became the second state in the nation to decide to drop President Trump’s name off of the 2024 ballot. This was a decision by Maine’s secretary of state, who believes that President Trump is not qualified to remain on the ballot due to her interpretation of the 14th Amendment—essentially, her belief that he “engaged in an insurrection.”

And so, in order to save democracy, she decided to not allow the 1 million voters in the state to have the option of voting for President Trump.

However, just like in Colorado, her decision has been put on hold because, on Wednesday, a superior court put a stay on the secretary’s directive.
