Former federal prosecutor Andrew Cherkasky joined “Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy” to discuss allegations Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willi inappropriately spent state tax money on the prosecution of former President Trump.

Host Trey Gowdy opened the discussion by pointing out that Willis was “already catching heat” over claims she hired alleged romantic partner Nathan Wade to prosecute Trump in Georgia’s election interference case, but newly unsealed court documents surrounding Wade’s divorce case are “generating even more questions.”

Gowdy asked, “Even if these allegations are true, does it impact State of Georgia v. Donald J. Trump and if so, how?”

“I’m not sure if this is more soap opera or like [a] John Grisham legal thriller, because the cards seem to be falling for Fani Willis,” Cherkasky responded.

Cherkasky expressed the need for a thorough investigation into potential honest services fraud by Willis and raised concerns over reports suggesting meetings between Willis, Wade and the Biden White House, raising suspicions of potential election interference.

“We can’t be in a nation where we are using the DOJ or using our legal systems to interfere with the actual – the voting and democratic process in our country. We need fairness, and we need to have assurance that the courts will ultimately allow the political process to work independent of aggressive prosecutors that are scattered throughout the nation,” Cherkasky added.
