  • Fani Willis Face-Off

    Fani Willis Face-Off
    Dec 18 2025
    Hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down the explosive testimony from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis before a newly formed Georgia Senate investigative committee. They describe a tense, highly political hearing marked by sharp exchanges, questions about her handling of the Trump election interference case, and clear ambitions from Republican lawmakers eyeing higher office. The hosts also examine what the testimony means for Willis’ future, how lawmakers could still try to rein in local prosecutors, and why the fight over her conduct is far from over even as the underlying case is effectively dead.
