Fani Willis Ordered to Release Communications in Trump Case Investigation

A state judge has ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to turn over communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and the House Jan. 6 Committee after failing to respond to a lawsuit by Judicial Watch. The conservative group sought these records through an open records request, suspecting Willis coordinated politically motivated prosecutions with Smith and the committee. The judge ruled Willis in default for not responding to the lawsuit, requiring her to search for and provide the requested documents. A hearing is set for Dec. 20 to address Judicial Watch's request for legal fees.

Calls for Investigation of J6 Committee After Release of Damning Tapes Spark Backlash and Praise

Senator Mike Lee is calling for an investigation into the House January 6 committee, accusing lawmakers of deliberately hiding footage from the Capitol riots. Lee questioned the character of former Republican representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, suggesting they helped hide the tapes. He also criticized the committee and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, questioning how much evidence they suppressed or lost. Lee highlighted footage that purportedly showed Capitol police officers facilitating the passage of protesters through the building. Speaker Mike Johnson began releasing over 40,000 hours of footage from January 6, 2021, with some video made available to the public and the rest to be released gradually.
