Jim Jordan subpoenas Fulton DA Fani Willis over whistleblower claims
House Judiciary Chairman Subpoenas Georgia District Attorney Over Misuse of Federal Funds
The House Judiciary Chairman, Jim Jordan (R-OH), has issued a subpoena to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis following allegations of misusing federal funds and firing a whistleblower. The subpoena is part of the Judiciary Committee’s investigation into Willis’ use of federal funds during her investigation of former President Donald Trump.
Willis, who is currently pursuing convictions against Trump in a Georgia racketeering and election interference case, has refused to hand over requested documents to the Judiciary Committee. In a letter addressed to Willis, Jordan expressed concern over the recent allegations of federal fund misuse and the subsequent firing of the whistleblower.
The allegations suggest that Willis’ office used federal grant funding improperly and attempted to conceal their actions. The Washington Free Beacon first reported the whistleblower’s claims, which were supported by a recording of a meeting between the whistleblower and Willis.
Amanda Timpson, the whistleblower, informed Willis that a campaign aide planned to use federal grant money for personal expenses instead of its intended purpose. Timpson was fired less than two months after the meeting, with the DA’s office citing her failure to meet the new administration’s standards as the reason.

This is not the first subpoena issued to Willis. Last month, she was also subpoenaed in another case after it was revealed that special prosecutor Nathan Wade had paid for her to accompany him on multiple trips related to her RICO case against Trump.
Can the allegations of altering financial documents and providing inaccurate information to auditors be substantiated, and what steps will be taken to hold those responsible accountable for their actions?
Rst reported on the alleged misuse of federal funds in Willis’ office. According to the report, the District Attorney’s Office received federal grants for specific programs, but instead diverted the funds for other purposes.
Furthermore, it is alleged that Willis’ office attempted to cover up their misdeeds by altering financial documents and providing inaccurate information to auditors. These actions are a serious violation of federal law and raise concerns about the integrity of the District Attorney’s Office.
In addition to the misuse of federal funds, Jordan’s subpoena also addresses the firing of a whistleblower from Willis’ office. The whistleblower, who reportedly raised concerns about the misuse of federal funds, was terminated shortly after coming forward with the allegations. This raises questions about possible retaliation against those who expose wrongdoing within the District Attorney’s Office.
Jordan’s subpoena seeks to uncover any evidence of wrongdoing and shed light on the extent of the misuse of federal funds. The investigation by the Judiciary Committee is crucial in ensuring transparency and accountability within the justice system.
While Willis has refused to comply with the subpoena, Jordan remains determined to uncover the truth. In his letter to Willis, Jordan emphasized the importance of upholding the principles of honesty and integrity in public office. He stated that failure to cooperate with the investigation will only raise further suspicions and damage the reputation of the District Attorney’s Office.
The allegations against Willis and her office are concerning, as they undermine the public’s trust in the justice system. The misuse of federal funds and the firing of the whistleblower not only raise doubts about the integrity of Willis’ investigation into Trump but also cast a shadow of doubt on other cases her office has handled.
It is essential for the House Judiciary Committee to thoroughly investigate these allegations and hold responsible parties accountable if the allegations are proven true. The subpoena issued to Willis is a necessary step towards uncovering the truth and ensuring that justice is served.
In conclusion, the subpoena issued by House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis highlights serious allegations of misuse of federal funds and the firing of a whistleblower. The investigation into these allegations is crucial in preserving the integrity of the justice system and ensuring that public officials are held accountable for their actions. The House Judiciary Committee must conduct a thorough investigation to uncover the truth and restore public trust in the District Attorney’s Office.
