Fani Willis claims she has been 'over-sexualized' and slams the media for wanting to 'tear a sister down' amid chaos over Trump case

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said Thursday in an appearance at a church that she has been 'attacked and over-sexualized' - blasting the media amid her election fraud case against former President Donald Trump going off the rails. 

Willis spoke to the congregation at Turner Chapel AME Church in Marietta, Georgia, with her ex-lover, former special prosecutor Nathan Wade, in the audience, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. 

That relationship has caused Trump's Georgia election interference case to be put on hold, a Georgia appeals court ruled last week, to allow for a challenge based on Willis' affair with Wade. 

'That same media will jump at the morsel of a chance to tear a sister down,' Willis told churchgoers. 

She didn't bring up the Trump case, her relationship with Wade nor the ongoing court battle during the speech - though she did use the address to knock a top Trump ally - House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio.

In the audience sat her ex-lover, former special prosecutor Nathan Wade. Willis' relationship with Wade has caused the Georgia election fraud case against former President Donald Trump and his allies to go off the rails 

She didn't identify Jordan by name but called him a 'clown.' 

'He’s been sitting there for 17 years and passed zero laws,' the Democrat claimed.

Jordan's Judiciary Committee has been investigating Willis' election fraud case in an attempt to undermine it to benefit Trump and the other 14 co-defendants, who include Mark Meadow and Rudy Giuliani, among others.

They were charged in a plot to appoint a slate of pro-Trump fake electors, with Trump also captured on tape asking Georgia's Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger to find '11,780 votes,' the exact number needed to overtake President Joe Biden's lead in the Peach State. 

That case - like the federal election fraud case brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith and the federal classified documents case in Florida - is now in limbo.

Georgia Judge Scott McAfee issued a ruling to allow Willis to remain on the case after bombshell court hearings that detailed lavish vacations and angry disputes about when the relationship with Wade started. 

Wade was dismissed from the case.

In an interview with CNN's Kaitlan Collins Wednesday night, Wade said he remained 'great friends' with Willis. 

When Collins pressed him on additional details about when their romantic relationship began his media consultant suddenly interrupted the Q&A. 

Wade is instructed to take off his mic and huddled with the gentleman in the corner of the room while CNN's cameras kept rolling. 

When he returned to his seat, Collins pressed him again on when the relationship started. 

'I believe that the public has through, through the testimony and other interviews, the public has a clear snapshot that this is clearly just a distraction,' Wade then answered.

'It is not a relevant issue in this case. And I think that we should be focusing on more of the facts and the indictment of the case,' the former special prosecutor added.

The CNN journalist followed up by asking if Wade's romantic relationship with Willis jeopardized the case.

'And therein lies the issue, why we wouldn't touch upon the work of the court of appeals or some higher court, because it's a pending issue before them,' Wade responded. 

He said they should stand back and let the higher courts make their decisions, continuing to refuse to say when his relationship with Willis began and ended.

With the Georgia case in disarray, and the other two cases against the ex-president also paused, only the hush money trial in New York saw Trump in court ahead of the November election.

Late last month, Trump was indicted on all 34 charges of business record fraud over hush money payments given to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
