Could a New Georgia Law Defeat Fani Willis Before She Tries Trump?

Efforts to remove the district attorney of Fulton County, Fani Willis, from her post could soon shine a spotlight on an avant-garde law that grants power to remove prosecutors to lawmakers rather than voters or governors.

Georgia’s law launched on July 1 and will begin to field complaints on October 1, just months before President Trump and 18 other defendants will stand trial at a Fulton County courthouse. Ms. Willis has decried it as “racist” — now, she might have to back up that charge in court.
