House GOP Investigates Alleged Collusion Between J6 Committee and Georgia Trump Prosecutor
House Republicans Investigate Collusion Between Jan. 6 Committee and Fulton County DA
House Republicans are launching an investigation into collusion between the now-disbanded partisan Select Committee on Jan. 6 and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. The investigation focuses on Willis’ persecution of former President Donald Trump in Georgia, which resulted in a grand jury indictment.
Leading the Republican investigation, House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan and Rep. Barry Loudermilk sent letters to Willis and former Select Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson. Willis charged Trump with 13 counts related to his efforts to protest aspects of the 2020 election, and she also charged 18 Trump allies, several of whom have taken plea deals.
In his letter to Willis, Jordan expressed concerns about politically motivated prosecutions and revealed that her office coordinated its actions with the partisan Select Committee. He referenced a letter from the Fulton County prosecutor to Thompson, requesting records relevant to their criminal investigation. Willis sought recordings, transcripts, travel records, and even offered to meet with investigators from the Jan. 6 Committee.

Jordan raised additional questions about the Committee’s oversight and due process, given their track record of manipulating evidence. He urged Willis to disclose any material obtained from the Committee’s coordination.
Loudermilk, in his letter to Thompson, expressed concerns about the Committee’s failure to preserve important records. He emphasized the importance of video recordings of witness interviews and depositions as crucial evidence.
The investigation seeks all communications and documents between the Jan. 6 Committee and the Fulton County DA’s office, as well as any other communications related to records obtained by the Committee. Loudermilk gave the Committee chairman until Dec. 11 to hand over all records related to their coordination with Willis.
In a statement, Loudermilk highlighted the concerning coordination between Willis, the Jan. 6 Committee, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. He questioned their commitment to due process and whether House Rules were violated by the Committee’s failure to disclose the material. The Republicans are determined to seek the truth.

The investigation into the alleged collusion between the Select Committee on Jan. 6 and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis marks a new turn in the ongoing fallout from the events of January 6, 2021. House Republicans are questioning the motivations behind Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and his allies in Georgia, suggesting that partisan interests may have influenced the investigation and subsequent indictments.
At the forefront of this investigation are House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan and Rep. Barry Loudermilk, who have sent letters to both Willis and former Select Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson. These letters express concerns about politically motivated prosecutions and the potential coordination between Willis’ office and the Select Committee.
In his letter to Willis, Chairman Jordan highlights the request for records made by the Fulton County prosecutor to Thompson. The letter states that these records are relevant to Willis’ criminal investigation into Trump’s actions surrounding the 2020 election. The records sought include recordings, transcripts, and travel records. Additionally, Jordan’s letter reveals that Willis’ office offered to meet with the investigators from the Jan. 6 Committee.
These revelations raise questions about the impartiality of the investigation and the potential collaboration between the Select Committee and the Fulton County District Attorney’s office. Critics argue that Willis’ actions may be politically motivated, given that Trump and his allies were the primary targets of the investigation. They suggest that the collaboration between the Select Committee and Willis’ office further reinforces these concerns.
It is important to note that Willis charged Trump with 13 counts related to his efforts to protest aspects of the 2020 election, and she also brought charges against 18 Trump allies, some of whom have already taken plea deals. The indictments and subsequent legal actions have been highly contentious, with supporters of Trump claiming that they are politically motivated and intended to silence opposition.
The investigation launched by House Republicans aims to shed light on the process behind the indictments and scrutinize any potential collusion or bias between the Select Committee and the Fulton County District Attorney’s office. This inquiry will be closely watched by both Democrats and Republicans, as it delves into the controversial events of January 6 and the subsequent legal actions taken against Trump and his allies.
The outcome of this investigation could have significant implications for future political prosecutions and the public’s trust in the judicial system. It is crucial that any allegations of collusion or political bias are thoroughly investigated and addressed. The House Republicans’ investigation into the alleged collusion between the Select Committee and the Fulton County District Attorney’s office represents an important step in this process.
As the investigation unfolds, it is essential for all parties involved to prioritize transparency and fairness. The American people deserve to have confidence in the impartiality of the justice system, particularly in high-profile cases with potential political implications. Only through a thorough and unbiased investigation can this confidence be restored and maintained.
Ultimately, the investigation into collusion between the Select Committee on Jan. 6 and Fulton County DA Fani Willis will serve as a test of the integrity and independence of both entities. The results of this investigation will undoubtedly shape the public’s perception of the justice system and its ability to address politically charged cases fairly and impartially.
