Georgia lawmakers grill former special prosecutor Nathan Wade over Trump election case

Georgia state senators at a subcommittee grilled Nathan Wade about his hiring and billing in the Trump election case.
Wade said he could not recall specifics of trips or conversations with federal officials.
Wade defended the case as independent, saying it was based on facts, interviews and the rule of law.
The hearing focused on whether a romance between Wade and Willis created a conflict of interest.
An appeals court removed Willis from the case in 2024 amid the relationship dispute.
Wade asserted that the work was Willis-led, not individually guided by him.
Lawmakers noted other committee members’ political campaigns while questioning Wade.
Deputy District Attorney Jeff DiSantis testified about Wade’s hiring and the district attorney's media monitoring use.
The committee’s broader mission includes examining misconduct allegations against Willis.
State leaders indicated the committee has yet to publicly act beyond questioning Wade.
