Fani-ing The Flames
It's a tossup which is funnier: The Hill's attempt to cover for Fani Willis/the lawfare against President Trump, or Willis' "The lady doth protest too much, methinks".
Since they work synergistically, we don't need to pick one over the other. Rather, the useful part is seeing how "the press" collaborates in the smoke and mirrors act to obfuscate the truth, while trying to avoid crossing the line into documentably bald-faced lies. The lines have become far more blurred than when the Nixon Administration resembled a contortionist in trying to avoid telling the truth while not quite lying.
Context and background are important. What sort of world will there be when the old folks die off and so many are at the mercy of Artificial Indoctrination (AI), Google, algorithms, and the rest of the mind and narrative manipulation?

The Fulton County district attorney’s office asked a Georgia judge Wednesday to quash subpoenas of top prosecutors in former President Trump’s 2020 election interference case that would require them to testify at a hearing next week over whether they should be booted from the case.
[Part of an attorney's job is to keep the truth out of Court. But that's not unlimited. There have to be valid reasons, not just “it hurts my client's case” or “the truth would embarrass my client”.]

Both Willis and Wade last week admitted to having a “personal relationship,” but the district attorney’s office had described the calls to step aside baseless and said there is no need for the hearing.
[“baseless”, eh? Not that they're completely false; rather, that not enough evidence has been presented YET. But that's one of the purposes of an evidentiary hearing: To acquire and present evidence through testimony subject to penalty for Perjury. Even if it were claimed that the allegations were false, mere claims don't make it so.
“no need for the hearing”, why? Because evidence would come out to show Willis' public pronouncements are, at best, disingenuous?]

In a new 36-page motion Wednesday, the district attorney’s office described the subpoenas as “ill-conceived” and based on “reckless accusations,” urging Judge Scott McAfee to block the attempt to compel Willis, Wade and others to testify at the hearing.
[“ill-conceived”, so Willis doesn't think they're a good idea. So? “reckless”, but not “false”. Willis' attorneys seem to understand well that an attorney can argue from the evidence, but cannot knowingly present false evidence.]

“Georgia law—as well as authority from across the country—predictably frowns on a process that permits counsel for one litigant to compel the testimony of counsel and employees of the opposing party, and there is no justification to depart from that general principle here,” special prosecutor Anna Green Cross wrote on the state’s behalf.
[“frowns”? Sure. But that doesn't prohibit an inquiry when there are darn good reasons to believe there is something nefarious going on.]

The district attorney’s office also accused defense counsel of attempting to “disrupt and delay” the prosecution.
[Forget the facts, we need to get this political lynching done before it's too late!]

After nearly a month, Willis and Wade admitted Friday to developing a “personal relationship” but insisted they were only friends when Willis hired Wade in late 2021.
[“After nearly a month”, a very nuanced announcement is made. Friends f--- friends. Which is normal, albeit increasingly abnormal in an immoral world. But things get complicated in the working world when one of the f___ees is f---ing someone higher up in the office. The statement raises intriguing questions, such as when things changed from a zipless f--- to a “personal relationship”.]
