“Your letter makes clear that you lack a basic understanding of the law, its practice, and the ethical obligations of attorneys generally and prosecutors specifically,” Fani Willis wrote in a letter to the Republican probing her.
Damn. Lady can write a fucking letter. Hope she also can prosecute the hell out of a case.
This letter is absolutely savage. Citations practically every other sentence, interleaved with abject trufax.
I want Fanni to be my new best friend. Thank you for calling him out for the fuckstick he is.
i am really looking forward to when the closet on Jim Jordan gets opened and those skellies start dancing out
Just in time for Halloween I hope.
The letter:
… if Congress were to block from that money, "you will be deciding to allow serial rapists to go unprosecuted, hate crimes to be unaddressed, and to cancel programs for at-risk children.

“…[Y]ou lack a basic understanding of the law, … and ethic[s]…”
Not taking away from her stunning writing, but this shorter version wouldn’t be wrong either.
Her wording is more powerful and less ad hominem, exactly how such a letter should be written.
edit: I think I understand what you are saying, and you’re not wrong, either.
you lack
probably would suffice
I urge all y’all to read the full text. Girl takes no prisoners.
Your questioning of the inclusion of overt and predicate acts by the defendants in the indictment’s racketeering count shows a total ignorance of Georgia’s racketeering statute and the basics of criminal conspiracy law.
Allow me the Opportunity to provide a brief tutorial on criminal conspiracy law, Chairman Jordan. As I explained to the public when announcing the indictment, the overt and predicate acts are included because the grand jury found probable cause that those acts were committed to advance the objectives of a criminal conspiracy to overturn the result of Georgia’s 2020 Presidential Election.
For a more thorough understanding of Georgia’s RICO statute, its application and similar laws in other states, I encourage you to read “RICO State-by-State.” As a non-member of the bar, you can purchase a copy for two hundred forty-nine dollars [$249].
Bottom paragraph, page 1:
“Furthermore, your note calls to mind another letter recently submited to a House select committe: ‘This unprecedented action serves no legitimate legislative purpose and would set a dangerous precedent for future Congresses… the American people deserve beter.’ See Letter fom Rep. Jim Jordan to Chairman Bennie Thompson dated January 9, 2022.”

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on Thursday rebuked House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan for his decision to investigate the Georgia election interference probe that led to the indictment of former President Donald Trump and 18 other defendants.
In a letter, Willis, a Democrat, accused Jordan, R-Ohio, of overstepping his congressional authority with his recent requests for information pertaining to her investigation.
“Your letter makes clear that you lack a basic understanding of the law, its practice, and the ethical obligations of attorneys generally and prosecutors specifically,” Willis added.
The district attorney then wrote that while “settled constitutional law” permits her “to ignore your unjustified and illegal intrusion into an open state criminal prosecution,” she would reply to some parts of his original letter.
She wrote that Jordan’s questioning of the length of the investigation and timing of the indictment is “unfounded,” adding that he had no basis to imply that her office has inappropriately spent federal funds.
Willis also listed a number of “suggestions for productive activity” by the Judiciary Committee, including that Congress should increase federal grant funds to allow for testing of untested rape kits and expand a program for children who are in trouble with the criminal justice system.
