District Attorney Fani Willis of Fulton County didn’t hold back in her fiery speech at Big Bethel AME Church when she took jabs at U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. The Georgia congressman had recently filed a criminal complaint against Willis, alleging that she had an affair with special prosecutor Nathan Wade and paid him over $600,000 in taxpayer funds. Willis, addressing the scandal for the first time, portrayed herself and Wade as victims of racial discrimination and even suggested that “black women can’t be perfect.”

In her remarks, Willis criticized Greene for allowing “hate” to fill her spirit. She questioned why the congresswoman hadn’t reached out to her and condemned the swatting incident at her home, insinuating that Greene should not tolerate such behavior as a leader. Willis accused Greene of normalizing cruelty and questioned how a woman in her position could condone such actions.
Furthermore, Willis addressed the criminal complaint filed by Greene and defended her actions in appointing special prosecutors and paying them equally. She went on to accuse her detractors of playing the “race card” and highlighted the hypocrisy in their criticisms, particularly focusing on their questioning of her decisions based on race.
The DA’s speech was laced with defiance, calling out those who she believed were unjustly targeting her and refusing to back down in the face of the allegations and political maneuvering set forth by Rep. Greene. Willis made it clear that she would not simply stand by and be trampled upon, especially by someone like Greene, and was unapologetic in her defense of her actions.
It’s clear that there is no love lost between Willis and Greene, with both standing firm in their positions and ready to duke it out in the political arena. The battle lines are drawn, and it’s shaping up to be a fierce face-off between two strong-willed women.
