Georgia lawmakers grill former special prosecutor Nathan Wade over Trump election case
Quick Insights
The Bottom Line
Georgia lawmakers failed to get answers from former prosecutor about Trump election case coordination.
AI Summary
Georgia state senators questioned former special prosecutor Nathan Wade on Friday about whether his team communicated with federal investigators during the election interference case against President Trump. Wade repeatedly told lawmakers he couldn't remember specific details about potential coordination between his prosecution team and federal authorities. The hearing left senators frustrated as they failed to extract the information they were seeking. Wade previously resigned from the case earlier this year amid controversy over his romantic relationship with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. The senators' investigation into potential federal coordination in the Georgia case remains ongoing without the key details they sought from Wade's testimony.
What's Being Done
Georgia senators continue investigating potential federal coordination in the election interference case against Trump.
