After former Trump Campaign officiaI Michael Roman alleged that Fulton County District Attorney acted in an incorrect way when she appointed Nathan Wade to be one of the special prose cutors in the case against Donald Trump and more than a dozen of his 2020 campaign officiaIs and lawyers, Rep. MTG demanded that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp take action against Willis. Gov. Kemp just refused to do so.
As background, MTG demanded action in a letter to Governor Kemp in which she, after summarizing what Willis allegedly did, explained what Georgia Code provisions she might have vioIated, saying, “And now we are learning she has allegedly enriched her secret boyfriend and herself during this process.
If proven true, these actions reflect Fani Willis’ serious lawlessness, including potential vioIation of public oath (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-10-1), bribery (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-10-2), improper influence of a government official (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-10-5), criminal conspiracy (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-4-8), conspiracy to defraud government (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-10-21), racketeering (Ga. Code Ann., §§ 16-14-1 through 12), false statements and concealment (Ga. Code Ann., § 16-10-20), Fulton County’s gift ban (Fulton County Code of Laws § 2-69(a)), and similar Georgia public-corruption cri mes.
Georgia statute states “the district attorney shall take the following oath: ‘I do swear that I will faithfully and impartially and without fear, favor, or affection discharge my duties as district attorney and will take only my lawful compensation. So help me God.’
If Fani Willis took kickbacks—in the form of lavish trips—from her unqualified boyfriend she appointed with government funds, she vioIated her oath and many Georgia criminaI statutes.”
Concluding, she then demanded a crimina investigation into DA Willis, saying, Thus, I request you order the immediate and formal criminaI investigation into the alleged criminaI misconduct by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, along with her special Trump prosecutor and alleged boyfriend Nathan Wade, pursuant to your authority under Georgia statute.
Later, the Georgia congresswoman said that she has high expectations for Governor Kemp and AG Christ Carr to initiate an investigation into Willis. “I really have high expectations of Governor Kemp and our Attorney General Chris Carr,” Greene said. “There should be a crimina investigation.” She also added, “If he [Kemp] ignores this, then he’s showing an extreme political bias.”
Gov. Kemp has refused to do so. A spokesperson for him, explaining why in a statement to Breitbart News, said, The Congresswoman has every right to refer her complaint to the oversight commission once the legislative process concludes this session and the commission begins full operations.
That spokesperson added, “Just last year, the Georgia General Assembly laid out a specific oversight process for district attorneys that is transparent and unbiased, which the governor supported and signed into law.”

Though it may seem like we’re discussing a character from an alternate reality, Downey experienced a tumultuous period between 1996 and 2001. His legal troubles began in 1996, and during this time, his first wife, Deborah Falconer, parted ways with him. In 1999, he found himself in court attire, appealing to a California judge for rehabilitation over imprisonment. Robert Downey Jr. — known as RDJ to his close circle — faced a three-year prison sentence amidst his ongoing struggle with personal challenges.
This episode was just one of many defining moments in the remarkable journey of Robert Downey Jr., known as Tony Stark, Iron Man, and Inmate No. P50522. Downey rose to fame in the 1980s with hits like Weird Science and The Pickup Artist,and had a high-profile relationship with Sarah Jessica Parker. However, after receiving an Oscar nomination for Chaplin in 1993, his career went downward. «Not a lot of people stood by his side,» remarked a source familiar with the situation. During this difficult period, he had only a «very small» support group, including his childhood friend Rob Lowe, who continued to believe in him.

Well, not too long ago, Robert Downey Jr. faced significant challenges that rendered him virtually unemployable. However, in 2001, his latest legal issue resulted in probation, prompting him to seek rehabilitation.
Despite his turbulent past, one thing emerged as a beacon of hope: love. In 2003, Downey encountered a transformative force that helped lift him from rock bottom and set him on a path to redemption.
Love saved him.
After spending some time in jail and completing court-ordered rehab for his well-publicized bad habits, Robert faced the risk of losing his movie career. However, a pivotal role in the 2003 thriller Gothika, where he agreed to receive most of his payment after filming, marked a turning point in his life. When Susan Levin first crossed paths with Robert on the set, she wasn’t initially smitten. However, the Hollywood producer soon found herself drawn to him.
Yet her affection came with a firm condition: Robert had to choose between his personal battles and their relationship. This ultimatum proved effective, as they tied the knot in 2005 and remain together to this day. Despite the challenges, Robert and Susan have enjoyed 17 years of marital happiness, standing as one of Hollywood’s most admired couples.
Even during his Oscar speech, Robert Downey Jr. couldn’t help but express gratitude to his wife, offering a heartfelt tribute. Known for his humor, Downey Jr. kicked off his speech with jokes, quipping that he’d like to thank his «terrible childhood» and the Academy, in that particular sequence.
Amidst the laughter, he playfully acknowledged his wife, Susan Downey, thanking her with a humorous twist. «Thank my veterinarian — I meant wife — Susan Downey over there,» he jestingly remarked. Reflecting on their relationship, he credited her for rescuing him like a snarling pet and nurturing him back to life. In his eyes, her love and support were the reasons for his presence on that prestigious stage.
Downey Jr. has undeniably become the iconic Iron Man for everyone.
