The Fani Willis saga just took another dramatic twist. A new batch of leaked text messages has put Willis and her co-conspirator Nathan Wade in a tight spot. And by tight spot, I mean they might have lied under oath and completely botched their case against former President Donald Trump. Talk about a plot twist!
Megyn Kelly reports that the defense team’s lawyer, Ashley Merchant, has been handed a goldmine of text messages between herself and Terrence Bradley, a former friend of Wade. These messages, exchanged from 2023 to early 2024, confirm Bradley’s knowledge of an affair between Willis and Wade that started before Wade was hired as a prosecutor in November 2021. But wait, there’s more. Bradley conveniently “forgot” all this when he took the stand last week during a rather uncomfortable inquiry. Oops!
The texts reveal a conversation where Merchant seeks an affidavit about the affair. Bradley confirms the existence of the affair but doubts anyone would willingly burn bridges to provide such information. He also divulges that Chris Campbell, a former law partner of Wade’s, is in the know but won’t admit it. Oh, the tangled web we weave!
But the drama doesn’t stop there. The texts also expose several vacations taken by the couple, and even suggest that Wade helped Willis move homes at some point. It’s like a telenovela, but with legal consequences!

Bradley’s admissions contradict sworn testimonies by Willis and Wade that their relationship began after Wade’s hiring. It seems our star-crossed lovers might not be as innocent as they claim. Shocking, right?
As the plot thickens, one thing becomes clear: Willis and Wade are in hot water. Their alleged lies under oath have not only jeopardized their case against Trump, but they’ve also painted a target on their own backs. And with Judge Scott McAfee deciding whether Willis should be disqualified from the case, things are looking pretty grim.
But let’s not forget the real victims here: the American people. We deserve honesty and integrity from our legal system, not soap opera theatrics. So, here’s hoping justice prevails and the truth comes to light.
