"Senate Panel Meets with Whistleblowers in Trump Prosecutor Investigation"
The Georgia Senate panel investigating Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is planning to hire an outside attorney and researcher as several whistleblowers within her office seek to speak to the committee about alleged misuse of federal and state funds, including accusations of engaging in a romantic relationship with someone she hired. The panel has the power to subpoena people and evidence, require testimony under oath, and recommend changes to state law if misconduct is found. Senate Democrats have expressed concerns about the investigation being a political witch hunt, while the committee's leader insists that it is not.
