House lawmakers subpoena Trump prosecutor Fani Willis for alleged misuse of federal funds

The House Judiciary Committee has issued a subpoena to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over allegations she misused federal funds for “swag,” travel and new computers.

The subpoena, signed by Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, Ohio Republican​, follows a whistleblower claim against Ms. Willis, who is separately prosecuting former President Donald Trump over alleged election interference.

The Washington Times​ reviewed the subpoena.



The whistleblower said Ms. Willis planned to use part of a $488,000 federal grant earmarked for the creation of a Center for Youth Empowerment and Gang Prevention to cover “frivolous, unrelated expenses.”

Ms. Willis has refused several requests from the committee to voluntarily provide information and documents about how her office used the federal money.

Separately, Ms. Willis is under investigation for hiring her alleged boyfriend to help prosecute Mr. Trump in the election interference case and using his salary to fund their trips and a cruise together.
