Georgia prosecutor Nathan Wade has been called on to appear before the House Judiciary Committee for an “interview” regarding Fulton Country District Attorney Fani Willis’s case against President Donald Trump.
Wade previously worked on Willis’s get-Trump case which centers on politically motivated allegations of election interference.
However, after his affair with Willis was exposed, a judge forced Wade to step down from the case.
Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) announced the invitation on Thursday.
The Republican congressman said Wade’s role in the case is too important to “go unquestioned.”
Wade was tapped by the Fulton County DA to prosecute the case against Trump.
The decision later ignited a firestorm of controversy after it was revealed that the pair were in a relationship.
Evidence also emerged that Willis had misused taxpayer funds.
In a letter to Wade inviting him to appear before the Committee, Jordan writes:
“There are serious concerns about your role in the politically motivated prosecution initiated by Ms. Willis against President Donald J. Trump.
“You have reportedly ‘profited significantly’ from Ms. Willis’ prosecution, with unsealed court filings alleging that you have been paid ‘almost seven hundred thousand dollars since May of 2022 alone’.”
