Watch live: Testimony continues in Fani Willis hearing

A second day of testimony resumes Friday in the Georgia hearing to determine whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will be disqualified from the trial of Donald Trump and 14 remaining co-defendants on charges of election interference.

Defense lawyers contend Willis and Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor she hired for the case, should be removed because of their romantic relationship.

Willis and Wade each took the witness stand Thursday to describe their relationship, insisting it had nothing to do with the case against Trump and the others. "These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020,” Willis said, gesturing to the defense table. “I’m not on trial no matter how hard you try to put me on trial.”

This whole situation is totally ridiculous

[yojlues]

This is such a KANGAROO COURT like " " My Cousin Vinny part 2" where is HERMAN MUNSTER? LOL

[biophillie]

It's amazing how intelligent, educated people, have such a hard time answering simple questions. Something major wrong here. 🤢🤢

[williamsibree]

The judge just doesn't keep control of the relevance of evidence to the motion. The only issue is whether there is a confllict of interest due to financeial inducements as a result of hiring Wade. Everything else is irrelevant and should be excluded.

With legal statements having been discovered to be untrue, how can the rest of the lawyer statements be treated as factual? And worth legally judging?

[kimwilbanks]

Anyone else would have been held in contempt all rules should apply to all people.

I can see where Fani gets her fillibuster answering ability ... her dad.. he takes longer to answer than she does.

[maemae]

I wish I could be a fly on the wall when the judge goes over the "protected" information

[razinrgk]

I have never seen such an unorganized Court room in my life. What in the Lord is going on here. Either they need to take a break to get organized or this should be adjourned. This is an awful representation of the Legal System.

[jaysmesa]

I like the way this judge works. He is actively engaged and appears very competent.

[donmcdaniel]

This judge is extremely polite and kind to ms Cross. I think he is sweet on her. Sure treat her different than the others.

[Mamamia]

The defense attorney for Mr Roman has no respect for the honorable judge. She never addressed the judge with due respect.She carries herself with strong arrogance .

[donmcdaniel]

The judge is clueless, the DA's are objecting to get answer to question attorney's are asking and judge keeps allowing it

[terrenastroud]

They are so wrong to grill her about her personal life. God knows what to do. There is a reason for every season under the sun. I will be praying for you. Be humble❤️💯

[jlpllds]

Look at how the tax payers money is being spent. Ridiculous.

[bobbyyeary]

Very knowledgeable Judge. I think he is as fair as any could be under 👍

[CMK]

Two witnesses with axes to grind. Disgusting

[sleepinginthelight]

Someone confident that rheir answers are true do not need to explain every single answer.

[erwinrommel]

I see so meny things wrong here. It's a witch hunt.

The fact that Fanni Willis first offered the job to the governor is actually huge for Willis. That proves she wasn’t just hiring Wade to profit from it.
