Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and Fannie Willis may have
0:05
gotten good news that she could stay on Trump's case, but then the bad news started falling like
0:10
an avalanche. Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe

Those little things really help us out and they help our channel continue to grow
0:21
So Fannie Willis, you know, she gets to stay on the case. Her lover Nathan Wade, he's off the case
0:27
and in any case she's in big trouble now because there was another whistleblower that said Fannie
0:34
Willis knew about the misappropriation of federal funds in her office by somebody that worked for
0:40
her and that she okayed it. Now this is just an allegation, but she's stonewalling Congress right
0:45
now. Jim Jordan has asked for information pertaining to this case and she's not given it
0:51
Now Jordan says he's willing to subpoena her and things could get really interesting because he
0:57
said if she doesn't comply with the subpoena, he will hold her in contempt of Congress and then
1:02
she could be the one going to jail. I want you to watch this quick video and then let me know what
1:07
you think about this whole thing in the comments. As always, please remember to like, comment
1:12
share and subscribe. I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you
1:19
Take care, everybody. The saga in Georgia continues with the Republican chair of the
1:24
House Judiciary Committee now threatening to hold Fannie Willis in contempt of Congress
1:30
Willis has refused to comply with the committee subpoena for documents that Congressman Jim
1:35
Jordan claims are related to the use of the DA's use of federal funds. And News Nation's Joe Khalil
1:41
live on Capitol Hill. And Joe, what more do we know about this new threat from Congressman Jordan
1:49
Well, he says he's serious about it and just want to point out this is all in addition to
1:55
everything that's happening in Georgia. You've now got House Republicans here in Washington
2:00
saying that they are prepared to hold Fannie Willis in contempt of Congress if she doesn't
2:06
hand over documents that House Republicans have requested. And this comes from House Judiciary
2:12
Chairman Jim Jordan, a Republican who just a couple of weeks ago issued a subpoena to Fannie
2:18
Willis's office. And this all stems from a former employee that worked in the DA's office in Fulton
2:24
County. This former employee says that there were federal grants, money that came from Washington
2:30
into the office that were meant to be used specifically for a youth crime prevention
2:36
program. And they allege that that money instead was spent on things like laptops
2:42
swagger for the office, merchandise. These are all things that Fannie Willis has already said
2:48
are not true. She is vehemently denied these accusations, but she is complying with the
2:54
subpoena so far handing over some documents. Jim Jordan has said it's not enough and it's not good
3:00
enough. He says that what she's handed over so far is not what they have been looking for. There
3:06
are documents he says specifically that relate to those federal funds that Fannie's office has not
3:13
handed over. He says that there is communication emails between the Department of Justice and
3:19
the Fulton County DA's office that they have failed to hand over as well. So that is what
3:24
they're after right now. And I want to read just part of the letter here that Jordan said. This
3:29
is really I think what sums it up. He says here that the committee expects you will produce the
3:34
responsive documents to the subpoena in the categories prioritized by the committee no later
3:40
than noon on March 28th of this year. So about two weeks from now. Now again, we did mention that we
3:48
reached out to the DA's office down in Fulton County. We've not heard from them today, but back
3:54
originally when the subpoena went out a couple weeks ago, Nicole, they did send us a statement
3:59
essentially denying that these allegations are true, saying this was one former employee who
4:03
was disgruntled and that there's no merit to the allegations at all. So this is on top of
4:09
what Fannie Willis is already dealing with today. Yeah, the saga certainly continues. Joe Khalil
