Republicans demand documents from Nathan Wade, Fani Willis' 'lover' who allegedly charged Fulton County DA $650,000 to investigate Donald Trump despite not being qualified

House Republicans have kicked off an investigation into the attorney hired by Georgia DA Fani Willis to go after Donald Trump who is now accused of having an affair with her.

The Judiciary Committee wrote a letter to attorney Nathan Wade requesting documents related to his work on the Trump indictment in Georgia, noting that he had been paid more than $650,000 – at a rate of $250 an hour – to work on the investigation and prosecution of Trump and other federal officials, according to a new court filing.

Wade was hired as an ‘anti-corruption special prosecutor’ to investigate Trump’s alleged election interference.

Wade had never previously handled a felony trial, according to the stunning new filing by Michael Roman, one of the former president’s co-defendants in the ‘fake electors scheme.’

The committee noted federal funds may have been used to pay Wade, granting them jurisdiction to investigate. It highlighted the ‘enormous legal fees’ Wade had billed the DA’s office for, in one instance, on November 5, 2021, charging for 24 hours of legal work in one day, claiming to have worked all day and night on the prosecution.

The court document released Monday alleged that Willis and Wade had been in a romantic relationship that predates her hiring him on the case.

While not proven, Willis hiring her boyfriend despite him having little expertise to lead on the prosecution and both of them financially benefitting from the arrangement could prove to be a conflict of interest.

Roman is accused of taking part in the ‘fake electors’ scheme, and is one of 18 people charged in George alongside Trump.

The filing said Wade was not qualified to serve as a court-appointed defense lawyer in the Trump case because needs to have tried ‘at least two criminal trials of similar offenses,’ per a 2022 document from the Fulton County Superior Court.

Earlier this week DailyMail.com reported Wade had two meetings at the Biden White House ahead of her prosecution of Trump.

Among the documents reviewed by DailyMail.com, were Wade’s invoices to the DA. Shockingly, they including one bill for an ‘interview with DC/White House’ for eight hours on November 18 2022 and another for eight hours including ‘conference with White House Counsel’ on May 23 2022.

The legal papers also claim that Willis was having an ‘an ongoing, personal relationship’ with Wade – citing ‘sources close to both the special prosecutor and the district attorney’ but doesn’t provide documentary proof,

Roman claims the pair were in a relationship before Willis hired Wade, and that they traveled together to Napa Valley, Florida, and even on a Caribbean cruise.

The Judiciary Committee opened an investigation into the Fulton County DA in August, probing whether she improperly used federal funds for her state-level prosecution or coordinated with Biden’s Justice Department.

Among the documents reviewed by DailyMail.com, were Wade’s invoices to the DA. Shockingly, they including one bill for an ‘interview with DC /White House’ for eight hours on November 18 2022 and another for eight hours including ‘conference with White House Counsel’ on May 23 2022.

Willis has previously denied coordinating with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office, or that her probe was politically motivated.

The filing makes reference to a sealed divorce filing for the married special prosecutor, but then goes on to make the claim based on other information.

It states that ‘information obtained outside of court filings indicates that the district attorney and special prosecutor have traveled personally together to such places as Napa Valley, Florida and the Caribbean and the special prosecutor has purchased tickets for both of them to travel on both the Norwegian and Royal Carbibean cruise lines.

‘Traveling together to such places as Washington, D.C. or New York City might make sense for work purposes in light of other pending litigation, but what work purpose could only be served by travel to this traditional vacation destinations?’

Roman was charged this summer with alleged crimes including taking part in a racketeering conspiracy, conspiracy to commit forgery, and conspiracy to file false documents, all in connection with a scheme to submit fake Republican electors who would cast votes for Trump in place of electors to reflect Joe Biden’s certified victory in the state.

Trump has been charged with 91 criminal offenses in four separate criminal cases, one being the election interference case in Fulton County, Ga., where was booked and arrested and had his famous mugshot.

A Manhattan grand jury has also charged Trump with falsifying business records and Smith, appointed special counsel by Attorney General Merrick Garland, has charged Trump over his handling of classified documents and separately over his attempt to overturn the 2020 election results.

The letter requested all communications between Wade and the Fulton County DA’s office and special counsel Jack Smith, the White House Counsel’s office, office of the president, Department of Justice and the January 6 Committee last Congress. It also requested all invoices, credit card statements and reimbursement requests to the Fulton County DA’s office relating to the Trump investigation  and all contracts and financial arrangements with the DA by January 26.
