Fani Willis Tells Church: Marjorie Taylor Greene Is 'Filled With Hate'

Fani Willis, the district attorney in Georgia's Fulton County, called out Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) by name in a sermon on Sunday.

While speaking at Big Bethel AME Church in Atlanta, Willis choked up as she spoke about her struggles as district attorney. She is prosecuting a high-profile case against former President Donald Trump and other co-conspirators for alleged election interference. She was also recently accused of having an affair with a member of her team.

"I don't think either of us at the time had an idea what I would inherit or gain as I became a DA," she said, pausing to collect herself. "A divorced single mom who doesn't belong to the right social groups, doesn't necessarily come from the right family, doesn't have the right pedigree. The assignment was just too high for lowly me."

"Seven of the highest profile cases in the United States going to land right here?" she asked. "No, please make it stop. God, you forgot to mention that my life and the life of my family would be threatened so regularly, I now think it's not normal if I don't have two death threats a week. God, you did not tell me that people would call me the N-word more than they call me Fani."
