Speaker Time Text
unidentified
Happening today, Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis will get back on the stand this morning after a heated day in court defending her relationship with Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Brooke Singman has all the details.
And Brooke, there were many details that unfolded yesterday.
brooke singman
Yeah, there were, Carly.
I spoke exclusively with former President Trump after Willis's testimony yesterday, and he tells me, quote, it is so badly tainted.
The case will have to be dropped.
There is no way they can have a case.
The whole thing was a scam to get money for the boyfriend.
Fulton County DA Fannie Willis was quite combative on the stand, receiving several cautionary warnings from the judge.
unidentified
You're confused.
You think I'm on trial.
These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020.
I'm not on trial, no matter how hard you try to put me on trial.
Has he ever visited you at the place you laid your head?
So let's be clear, because you've lied in this.
Let me tell you which one you lied in.
Right here?
I think you lied right here.
No, no, no, no.
This is the truth, Judge.
It is a lie.
It is a lie.
I probably had some choice words about some of the things that you said that were dishonest within this motion.
As you know, Mr. Wade is a...
Southern gentleman.
To me, not so much.
brooke singman
And Fannie's former lover turned Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade had some trouble remembering the details of their relationship.
unidentified
Did you go to a cabin with Miss Willis ever?
Ever?
brooke singman
ever.
unidentified
Okay.
No.
You've never gone to a cabinet with this?
No.
brooke singman
Yeah, that was a long pause.
Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett says this is a major problem for Fannie's case.
unidentified
The affair itself is a severe conflict of interest, an obvious impropriety, a violation egregiously of the canons of ethics.
That merits disqualification.
brooke singman
And while Fannie Willis testifies again today in Atlanta, former President Trump is awaiting a ruling in the New York civil fraud trial stemming from Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against him and his businesses.
unidentified
*crying* *crying* It's already starting to get up.
*crying* *crying* *crying* *crying* *crying* *crying* *crying* *crying* Okay.
Alright!
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, it's ya boy, Betty!
It's Free For All Friday, and this is a live shot of the court along with your comments right here, baby!
For Fannie-Mageddon!
Parte du...
Ladies and gentlemen, today, Friday, February 16, 2024, Fanny Willis was supposed to testify this morning.
In fact, Fanny Willis should be sitting her big fanny right there on that bench.
But unfortunately, due to the thermonuclear dumpster meltdown that was yesterday, where that woman couldn't even wear her dress correctly, her dress was on backwards!
Her dress was on backwards!
I'll stop yelling.
Her dress was on backwards, okay?
She can't even be trusted to wear her dress right.
After admitting to multiple crimes, after torpedoing Loverboy, you thought it was Fanny getting torpedoed.
Nope, it was actually Loverboy, who was getting destroyed yesterday.
After clearly proving how low-functioning she is, Fanny Will is talking about straight-up campaign finance violations that would land anyone else in jail.
Talking about how she travels everywhere with like bags of cash, being incapable of answering basic questions, getting scolded by the judge a bunch of times, and getting nearly kicked out of the courtroom with her testimony stricken.
It turns out that even though the state said that they had a bunch of questions for her, that they had hours worth of questions for her, Fannie Willis, well...
Won't testify this morning.
Which may change, okay?
Fannie Wills wasn't supposed to testify yesterday.
She came bull rushing into the courtroom.
But this is a very, very bad thing for the state.
Because it means that the only testimony that will stand is Big Fannie crapping all over the bed yesterday.
Which is really something special.
So ladies and gentlemen, there are going to be more witnesses called.
We have everything up live here for your viewing pleasure.
We have all of our comments here, ladies and gentlemen.
And we should be able to see a little bit of fireworks happening in a bit because they have other people, other witnesses that the prosecution are going to call.
The prosecution had a heyday.
With Fannie Willis yesterday, and we are very, very excited to recap.
Again, we note that at any moment, Fannie Willis may bullrush the courtroom just like she did yesterday.
But hot damn, according to legal experts that we were on the phone with just seconds ago, this is a horrific development for the defense.
Giving your witness a chance to answer questions and to get questions from your side is typically how you create a defense.
Fannie Willis going out there yesterday, that's going to be the only testimony that she has.
This ain't good.
This is very, very, very bad.
We were live for seven hours yesterday.
We are live two hours before our normal time today.
Because this is such an important trial.
And also, it shows you the window into how low-functioning the left actually is.
Remember, this was the trial that was supposed to take down Trump.
This was the one.
Ladies and gentlemen, we hope that you caught all of our programming yesterday.
It was really fun.
We're going to recap all of it for you here in a second.
If you were on Patriot Mobile and using Patriot Mobile, you would have caught everything.
Patriot Mobile, of course, is the cell phone company that provides the data and the network and the structure for our show to be able to go live and to be able to do the reporting from in the field.
We will be in South Carolina next week for the primaries.
It will be very interesting.
We're going to be on the road a lot this year, and we are taking Patriot Mobile with us.
Patriot Mobile backs us up.
And ladies and gentlemen, it's really good to have a cell phone company for this show that believes in free speech and that does not fund the left.
100% U.S.-based customer service makes switching easy.
You should make the switch today.

That's PatriotMobile.com slash Benny.
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, here we go.
So when there is action in the courtroom, here's how the rules of the day.
When there is action in the courtroom, we're going to cut back because they're going to try and call.
The prosecution was waiting for Fannie Willis to go out and to, I mean, desecrate her office.
Frumpy, lumpy Fannie with her dress on backwards to go out, like to go schlomping on back out there this morning.
And we thought we were going to have two more hours of Fannie-Mageddon.
Big, big Fannie-Mageddon.
But unfortunately, the state is like, actually, we don't trust our own witness to talk.
So this was what happened just moments ago.
I'm going to show you this.
The state has said, uh, yeah, we have no questions for Fannie Willis.
We don't think that this is going to end well.
This is a, again.
A move that is made out of fear and out of weakness, not out of strength.
Watch.
unidentified
State has no more questions for Fannie Willis.
That is not what we were led to believe as we began.
They want to cut their losses.
Yeah.
Well, maybe, maybe attorneys will be able to answer that for us.
She will not be testifying today.
The next witness will be.
Terrence Bradley.
Bradley's at a doctor's appointment right now, and he will be available at 10 a.m. Eastern Time.
So that's about 47 minutes from now, but that's where it stands.
That's the way of the land right now.
benny johnson
So the state has no questions for Big Fanny.
And you heard there, Dana Perino, who is a lawyer saying they're cutting their losses.
We have a number of legal experts that will be joining the show yesterday.
Of course, um, we had Tasha Kay on and, uh, maybe, maybe she'll join us once more.
Our producer team is working through some of our best and sharpest and brightest lawyer friends to pop on and sort of tell you what this means.
But, uh, according to an attorney who is also a member of Congress who I was on the phone This is bad, okay?
This is bad.
So here's what happens.
I mean, this is just like basic argument, okay?
Basic argument so that you understand what's going on here.
If you are in an argument and you're losing the argument, you definitely want a chance to try and gain some ground, okay?
To try and explain yourself.
And that's what the defense was going to get a chance to do.
The state, okay, was going to get a chance to try and defend themselves against the disaster of yesterday.
There was no time at the end of the day.
It was 5 o 'clock.
And the judge was like, we don't have time for this.
We don't have time for you to question your witness.
So we're going to do it in the morning, okay?
9 a.m.
That's what everyone, including Fox News and all of us were led to leave.
So what I'm being told is that there does come a time when you've lost an argument so poorly.
Do you understand that husbands, I'm a husband, okay?
Do you understand this, men?
Men, you're going to feel me on this.
There's a time when you've lost the argument so bad, or when like...
It's not worth arguing anymore, okay?
When it's worth just shutting up.
And that's, I think, where the state is right now for Georgia.
They're like, actually, I had one too many.
Grey Goose is what Fanny Willis said that she drinks yesterday.
We'll get to all of it.
We'll get to all these nightmare clips.
We had the whole ALX's stack to the show.
But what's going on here is...
When you've had one too many adult beverages, in Fanny Willis' case, Grey Goose.
unidentified
Very classy, very classy, Big Fanny.
Grey Goose, brought to you by Big Fanny.
benny johnson
So when you've had one too many, and maybe you get into a stupid argument, and you realize you've lost, and you've lost beyond the point of no return, then you just hang it up.
Men, you just hang it up.
Sometimes you just lose.
And that's what the state's admitting to right now.
They don't even want to question Fannie Willis.
They don't want her back up there.
Oh, man.
Do we have the backwards dress?
Can we start with that?
Where's the backwards dress?
That's what I want to start with.
Fannie Willis, like, bullrushed the court yesterday.
And she was wearing her dress backwards.
unidentified
Okay?
benny johnson
I think this is so incredibly important.
Rolls Royce is going to have to switch around one or two things because we're going to take the live feed off because there's nothing happening.
Mark my words, ladies and gentlemen.
If something happens, we'll pop back over the live feed.
Here you go.
So Fannie Willis was wearing her dress backwards.
This is called Zippergate 2024.
Zippergate 2024.
Now, I'm no fashion guy, okay?
As you all see every day.
Well, I wear a black shirt.
I wear the same thing to work every single day.
You see me on the street, I'm wearing the same thing.
You gotta see this one, though.
You gotta see this one.
Let's put this up, guys.
Hold on.
There's like a fashion designer that actually sounded off on this.
Can we put up this tweet?
Because I don't want to be like Mr. Fashion, because that's not me.
Okay?
There is a tweet, though, from an expert on this.
And ladies, sound off in the comments section.
Taylor Day on X says, this is my party trick.
Meaning she's one of these women that knows all these dresses and fashion.
You ever been around one of these?
It's amazing.
I used to work with a woman like this.
Who, like, knew every dress and every single fashion and every single thing and how it was supposed to be worn and where it came from, what year and whatever.
Devil Wears Prada kind of thing.
It's great.
Good party trick.
So she says this is an Adriana Papel knit crepe tied knee length sheath dress color Camilla or Carmella.
Kind of like Camilla or Camilla.
No one's quite sure.
Circa Nordstrom 2016-ish.
129 bucks with no discount.
Taylor took in the shoulders, and yes, she's wearing it backwards!
unidentified
She can't wear dresses the right way!
benny johnson
But she's so smart!
Remember, this is the critical legal mind that is dead set on prosecuting Donald Trump.
unidentified
She's wearing her dress backwards.
benny johnson
Can we go back to my tweet?
Rolls Royce, can we zoom in on that?
My tweet, like, it shows you.
Like, it shows you.
Yeah, producer Robbie is saying Nathan Wade helped her put it on.
Can you see how it's supposed to be?
There you go.
You can see on the model.
This is how it's supposed to be.
Fannie Willis didn't know which direction to wear her dress.
There needs to be an IQ test for entering modern society.
Ladies and gentlemen.
And wearing your clothes the correct way is one of these things.
My two-year-old puts her shirts on backwards and her dresses on backwards.
I have a two-year-old.
She has these little dresses, these princess dresses, and she puts the dress on backwards.
But Fanny Willis is like 60 or something.
So, nope.
Nope.
Don't get past.
Like, really.
Truly.
It's like, this should be like a rule in society.
Do you wear your clothes backwards?
Okay?
What's the famous rap group that wore their jeans backwards?
Crisscross?
Alright, Fanny Willis, not a member of Crisscross.
Okay?
Can we get a cultural reference for that?
Am I remembering that correctly?
Crisscross.
Idiots wore their jeans backwards.
How do you take your jeans off?
I don't know.
Anyway, Fanny Willis, not a member of that rap group, as far as I know.
Do you wear your clothes backwards?
This should be a rule for, like, entering functioning society.
And do you eat the little white packets inside of the bags of beef jerky?
Do you eat those?
Those little gelatin savor packets that say do not eat on them?
Do you, like, munch those all day?
If you do any of those two things, one or both, and I think Fannie Willis might do both, then you shouldn't be allowed to hold public office.
You shouldn't be allowed...
You are a harm to yourself.
That's a red flag.
That's a red flag.
There's a red flag law I'm in favor of.
There you go.
That's a red flag.
Okay?
If you eat the little packets, the little white packets that say do not eat on them inside the beef jerky, and if you wear your dress backwards.
Here's crisscross.
To my knowledge, not Fanny Willis.
To my knowledge, as far as I know.
We have an entire, we have a very intelligent, far more intelligent than me, production team here.
Maybe one of my producers can tell me if this is young Fannie Willis.
I don't know.
I'm not sure.
I don't think so.
Maybe, maybe this is just, maybe this is her culture.
unidentified
Fannie Willis says, it's a lie, it's a lie, it's a lie.
benny johnson
She rejects offensive claim that she had sex with prosecutor Nathan Wade.
But she admitted she had sex with prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Defends having piles of cash at her home to pay him for lavish work trips.
I'm not on trial, she screams.
unidentified
Oh my gosh, it's so funny.
benny johnson
Okay, so there are so many things that have gone wrong yesterday in this trial.
Let's recap, ladies and gentlemen.
So we got...
We got MSNBC.
Let's just go straight for the jugular here.
We got MSNBC yesterday, even before, even before Fannie Willis came out and Big Fannie crapped the bed.
Fannie Willis has not been impressing the people on MSNBC, nor has her behavior been impressing the legal experts.
MSNBC, straight up yesterday, we spit out our coffee.
Their experts are like, this case is dead.
It's over.
This case is done.
This is before.
The nightmarish testimonies of Nathan Wade and Fannie Willis.
Oh, we'll get there.
Believe that.
Check this out.
unidentified
It's so legalistic-centric and yet so important and fascinating.
Right.
Don't let the legalese fool you.
This is epic.
This is monumental.
If things are going in the direction we think.
If Fannie Willis lied to the court, it's game over for her.
She will be disqualified if they had a relationship prior to when they represented to the court.
It's a huge deal.
I can't overstate it.
And do you feel the same way, Charles, based on the testimony of what we just...
benny johnson
So that was before the testimony.
Then the testimony got going.
Oh, you're going to love this.
Okay, so let's just start from the top.
Start from the top.
First witness is like they're lying.
Who's the first witness?
Some MAGA Republican?
Nope!
Black lady who is Fannie Willis' supporter, who's Fannie Willis' friend, Fannie Willis' roommate, and she's like, are you kidding me?
Nathan Wade was all up in that big fanny.
Nathan's hot dog, Nathan's wiener roller was big fanny, not 7-Eleven.
And this all started in 2019.
They're lying to you.
They're lying to you.
They also have multiple sworn documents alleging different dates that their relationship started.
So they're lying to the court.
Okay?
Even MSNBC is smart enough to see this.
You've got to be Ray Charles and not be able to see this.
Watch.
unidentified
When did your romantic relationship with Ms. Willis begin?
2022.
When?
In 2022.
Early 2022.
So you were appointed in November of 2021?
Yes, ma 'am.
And your relationship started early.
What's early?
January?
February?
Around March.
Around March.
But you two met at an October 2019 judicial conference, correct?
Yes, ma 'am.
That testimony directly contradicts earlier testimony from one of Willis' former good friends who said the relationship began well before Wade testified it did and predated his hearing by the DA.
You have no doubt that their romantic relationship was in effect from 2019 until the last time you spoke with her.
No doubt.
Did you observe them do things that are common among people having a romantic relationship?
Yes.
Such as?
Can you give us an example?
Hugging, kissing, with affection.
All before November 1st of 2021, correct?
Yes.
benny johnson
So, well, uh-oh.
That's Big Fanny's big friend, and she's saying they're lying to you.
That was the first witness.
You wonder why they're so rattled.
And they should be rattled.
The experts are saying...
After the testimony yesterday, and we have a lot of experts to chime in, and we have a number of experts that are going to join the show, some of our dearest friends, some of the smartest, quickest political minds out there.
But ladies and gentlemen, the experts are saying this is, like, it's over.
Okay, let's go back to Fox News, a guy who's really sharp as a tack, Jonathan Turley, saying, like, they've already disqualified themselves.
The judge doesn't need to do any work here.
A reminder that the judge has already said he's going to disqualify them, right?
By floating the disqualification in court, The judge has already said, that's what I'm leaning towards here.
So the judge is, like, biasing this, saying, I already believe they need to be disqualified.
But it gets worse, ladies and gentlemen.
Jonathan Turley saying, they did the judge's work for them.
They disqualified themselves.
Check this out.
unidentified
The question is really not just whether the court will disqualify one or both, but what is Wade and Willis still doing in this case?
They are clearly hurting their case.
So this isn't really their case at all, right?
I mean, this is supposedly the case of Fulton County, and yet they seem to be holding it hostage to their own personal drama, which is playing out in this courtroom.
benny johnson
They're effectively destroying any case that they may have potentially had.
It's pretty funny.
And it's pretty exciting what we're about to see next.
Because we will see, live on this show, Fanny Willis' dad testify.
We'll see, ladies and gentlemen.
Of course, we have our entire intrepid production team at this show, at the ready, getting real-time data.
You will not be disappointed in the next witnesses that are being called up because they're from the prosecution and they're going to be laundering a little more of Fannie's dirty dirt, dirty laundry.
But speaking of money laundering, that's what Fannie Willis and Nathan Wade admitted to yesterday.
Okay?
That's what Fannie Willis and Nathan Wade admitted to.
And who taught Fannie how to money launder?
Daddy.
Fanny's dad is going to take the stand as a witness today.
That should be exciting.
I didn't know anything about Fanny's dad.
Fanny talked a bunch about her father yesterday, about her dad always taught her to keep money, keep all of her money in cash and shove it into her pillow where she lays her head, wherever she lays her head.
Does she sleep under the bridge?
Like, is she like in a...
Does she live in San Francisco, like, in a homeless encampment?
Like, what do you mean?
Like, yesterday, she's like, it doesn't matter where I lay my head, right?
We'll get to it.
But be prepared.
I want to, like, prep you that, like, today there's going to be more fireworks.
Fannie Willis' dad is apparently a member of the Black Panthers.
Has, like, a super shady past.
Is the one who taught Fannie Willis to money launder, according to Fannie?
So this is what we're in for today.
Check this out.
laura ingraham
Nancy Floyd III told academic researchers that he considered police in his native L.A. in the 60s to be a, quote, occupying army.
That was nothing but trouble.
Floyd, now 80, also called a prominent white politician of the era a Texas cracker, and he suggested that he believed conspiracy theories that Malcolm X was assassinated by the CIA.
Ned, does the radical fall far from the tree?
ned ryun
No, and let's not forget that Fannie Willis is a George Soros-funded DA.
I mean, she's funded by the radical left and is continuing in the tradition of her father.
benny johnson
Okay, so Mr. Big Fannie, Daddy Fannie, it's got to be taking the stand.
It's got to be so exciting to see.
Oh, ladies and gentlemen.
Our dear friend and friend of the show, you know him as the legal expert on our program.
His name is Mike Davis.
Mike Davis, also the attorney that got all of Donald Trump's Supreme Court justices onto the court.
Also today, my producers are screaming at me, the Supreme Court is set today to rule on Donald Trump being allowed or not allowed on the ballot in Colorado.
Mark your calendars.
That will happen while we're live.
We'll make sure that...
Again, we give you that news breaking live.
Based on what we've heard, and we have friends pretty close to the Supreme Court, let's just say about as close as you can get, there's going to be a 9-0 ruling in favor of Donald Trump.
So prepare, ladies and gentlemen.
Prepare for a 9-0 ruling in favor of Trump.
Absolutely smashing, destroying another.
This is going to be a bad day for Libs.
Get your salt shakers ready.
Destroying another hoax that the Democrat Party has funneled into the willing and open veins of their TDS deranged psychopathic cult.
That state attorney generals without a trial can just kick Donald Trump off the ballot.
That's going down in flames today.
That's at the very least, the Supreme Court never announces what they're going to rule on.
But at the very least, we think that's what's going to happen.
So be prepared, ladies and gentlemen.
So Mike Davis, who got us that court, was saying yesterday that Fannie Willis is admitting to criminality here.
And we're going to get into the campaign finance element of this.
But Fannie Willis multiple times said, oh, I took my campaign dollars and I cashed them out and then I just used them to go on a carnival cruise.
And everyone who's ever done campaign finance is like...
Collectively wincing and cringing and screaming at this.
Mike Davis saying she's like admitting to major crimes on the stand.
That's why the state didn't call her this morning.
Watch.
unidentified
Yeah, remember what the allegations are here, that Fannie Willis illegally...
Hired her secret boyfriend.
She paid him $250 an hour, and she took illegal kickbacks.
And so she had a financial interest in this criminal prosecution, which is absolutely illegal, as any lawyer would know.
Her defense is, no, no, no, no.
I didn't take illegal kickbacks.
I didn't have a financial interest in this case because I paid back my boyfriend with cash.
But I'm not going to tell you where I got that cash, how I paid him.
I don't have any accounting whatsoever of that cash, but you're just supposed to believe me that I paid back my boyfriend with cash.
benny johnson
Oh, it's going to be good.
Oh, we're very excited about it.
So, ladies and gentlemen, the turntables have indeed turned for the potential former members of Criss Cross.
Again, maybe that's why...
Maybe that's why Big Fanny wore her dress backwards.
We don't know!
unidentified
The question of our time!
benny johnson
Why did Big Fanny wear her dress backwards?
We don't know!
There's also a lot of things we don't know.
Like, what is a cabin?
Like, do you know what a cabin is?
A cabin is like a type house.
It's pretty identifiable.
Made out of wood, logs.
But did you know that Nathan Wade doesn't know what a cabin is?
Nathan Wade is Loverboy.
Fanny Willis got a lot of attention yesterday, but Loverboy, man, he was the first appetizer, of course, and it was a doozy.
So Loverboy doesn't know what a cabin is.
Loverboy, in fact, should know what a cabin is because he literally turned into a piece of wood when asked about it.
We're going to cover what Loverboy said before getting to Big Fanny.
But Loverboy was asked, have you ever stayed in a cabin with a Big Fanny?
This is possibly my favorite clip ever.
Check this out.
unidentified
Did you go to a cabin with Miss Willis ever?
Ever.
ever.
No.
benny johnson
Okay.
Do I get any husbands?
Shout yourself out in the comment section if you're a husband or if you're a wife or if you're just even dating somebody because basic human function and instinct will tell you that if your wife I'm going to put myself into this role.
If your wife Asks you a question, maybe like a question that is a little controversial, okay?
Whatever that may be in your relationship.
And if your answer to that question, where were you last night, honey?
Where were you last night, honey?
If your answer to that question is to go like this.
unidentified
Thank you.
benny johnson
No.
Like, if that's the way that you answer the probing questions of your wife, then I think you were probing Big Fanny.
All joking aside, I think it's hysterical that, like, the guilt of these people is so, like, plainly obvious, okay?
This is what's going on, alright?
Inside of the head of Nathan Wade.
Some of our dear friends in the meme warrior army have created and have, through telepathic powers, divined what was happening inside of Nathan Wade's head at that time.
We thought that he was just blanking or coming up with a lie, but we were wrong.
Ladies and gentlemen, breaking, here it is.
unidentified
Did you go to a cabin with Miss Willis?
Ever.
Ever?
ever.
The hardest time we've been together Thought a thing would last forever through thick and thin Buddha bad all I was happy never never said now it's all gone so getting worse by the hour let's break up now You never want to have no capital at this point?
No.
*laughs*
benny johnson
Oh, it's too good!
It's really good.
Oh, yeah, baby.
You know that that's what...
Okay, listen.
You know that that's what he was thinking about because during multiple questions, Nathan Wade continued to bring up intercourse with Big Fanny.
Now...
I'm not trying to be gratuitous here.
We've made a couple of funny off-color jokes.
We think we're men, okay?
We like the puns.
I'm a dad.
I like a dad joke here and there.
And off-color dad jokes.
But, like, I'm not trying to be gratuitous here.
Nathan Wade, like, during multiple times in his hours of questioning was like, you talking about intercourse with Big Fanny?
And, like, the petitioner's like, holy crap.
Like, dude, bro.
Uh, okay?
I can prove it.
Here.
unidentified
Let me rephrase, if I might.
The way it has been characterized in, for example, the response of the state, and I believe in your affidavit, is there's a difference between a personal relationship and a professional relationship.
Correct?
Yes, sir.
I'm not talking about a professional relationship.
I'm talking about a personal relationship.
Have you had...
the summer of 2023.
Are you asking me if I had intercourse with the district attorney?
I was trying not to, but I guess if you're going to characterize it as that, the answer would be So, that's where we're having issues.
You'll have to explain because I don't know what the issue would be.
No, I will explain to you.
Thank you.
You say personal.
We're very good friends.
Probably closer than ever because of these attacks.
But if you're asking me about specific intercourse, the answer is no.
How about if I change it from intercourse to romantic?
No.
*laughter*
Do you see?
benny johnson
Oh, yeah.
Do you see?
unidentified
Why?
benny johnson
Royce, why are the comments stuck?
unidentified
Rolls Royce.
benny johnson
Rolls Royce!
Rolls Royce!
Okay, we unstucked it.
Okay.
We're trying this.
We want to, like, integrate the comments into the show more because we have a very, very active comment section.
Our show yesterday had, like, 20,000 comments.
And so we want to, like, integrate.
We want you to be part of the show.
We're, like, always trying and working on, like, developing a way to do, like, to bring.
Because this show is for you and for us.
And it's for all of us to have fun, to get, like, to laugh our big fannies off together at the nightmare that is these people.
He's the guy who brought it up.
So are you saying I had intercourse with her?
No, pal.
Well, I didn't!
Okay.
Well, did you have a romantic relationship with her?
No.
Well, you already admitted to that in a court filing, you jackwagon.
So what are you going to do now?
Gotcha, bitch!
You already said it twice.
You had a romantic relationship.
So is she.
And Fanny was pissed yesterday.
She was so angry.
She came after watching.
Nathan Wade's testimony?
She came storming into the courthouse.
We have all of that.
But she probably went storming into the courthouse, not just because of a woman scorned, but because of this.
This is the scary part, okay, for them.
This is the part where it goes from, like, everyone's just having fun, and this is, like, kind of silly, to you're going to be criminally prosecuted and go to prison.
You're both going to go to prison, okay?
Is the misuse of state and federal funds.
I'm not a particularly smart financial mind, so let me try and explain it.
Let me try and explain it as easily as I can here.
When you get dollars from the state, when you get money from the state, you are not allowed to use that money to buy cruises and to go to Napa Valley.
And to go on luxurious dates.
You can't use your money for that.
You shouldn't do that.
That's a bad use of your money.
The money that is given to you from the feds or from the state should go towards your job, being a prosecutor in one of the most dangerous hellscapes, third world countries on planet Earth, known as Fulton County, Georgia.
But unfortunately, Fannie Willis didn't do that.
And was thrilled to use state money in order to engorge and enrich herself and her lover boy at all times.
Coming in the form of, of course, hiring lover boy in the first place at an extremely high salary rate, higher than any other lawyer on the team.
And then, obviously, that money getting laundered back into Fannie's accounts by lover boy spending lavishly on her.
That's money laundering.
There you go.
Simple as.
Even I can understand it.
And so Loverboy was asked, like, it's going to be really important here, a sticking point.
Reimbursements.
Like, were you just spending the state's money on Big Fanny?
So she was paying you to, like, spend the money on her?
And he goes, no, no, no.
It was reimbursed.
It was all reimbursed, though, in cash.
That's right.
Fanny Willis carries around giant bags.
Like, the bags, like, from a 1920s, like, Like caper?
Like cop caper?
Bags of cash.
You know the ones with the money sign on them, right?
The dollar signs on them?
The Monopoly Man.
That's how Fannie Willis travels.
She has Monopoly Man style bags with the American dollar sign on them and she just carries all this cash around.
And that's how she reimburses me.
This is a very important point because it's kind of like the sticking point of the trial here.
That Fannie Willis Has not reimbursed any of this.
Fannie Willis was money laundering through the state so that this guy would spend all that state's money lavishly on her.
And so were these trips reimbursed?
We're not even getting to the fact that, like, they're co-workers.
He's her employee.
So obviously this is illegal anyway, right?
Like, you're not allowed to do this.
Like, this is a discrepancy, and this is going to cause favoritism, and this is like a workplace lawsuit waiting to happen, right?
So here's the thing that caused Fannie to go screaming into the courtroom.
Watch.
unidentified
Oh, I need it.
You said in the affidavit that you roughly shared travel, though, correct?
Yes, ma 'am.
Okay.
So this roughly sharing travel, you're saying she reimbursed you?
She did.
And where did you deposit the money she reimbursed you?
Oh, it was cash.
She didn't give me any checks.
So she paid you cash for her share of all these vacations?
Mr. Schaefer, you'll step out if you do that again.
Yes, ma 'am.
Okay.
And so all of the vacations that she took, she paid you cash for?
Yes, ma 'am.
And you purchased all of these vacations on your business credit card, correct?
Yes, ma 'am.
And you included those in deductions on your taxes, correct?
No, ma 'am.
No, you did not.
Mwahahahaha!
It's so good!
Woohoohoohoohoohoo!
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, it's that.
Not just the woman scorned stuff.
Because Nathan Wade also said that Big Fanny has a tough time carrying her own weight around.
You gotta choose your words carefully, pal.
But he said that multiple times.
Okay, pal.
It's your funeral.
Somebody's about to get Arkencided.
Then Big Fanny saw Nathan Wade talking about how he's always reimbursed in cash.
And that's a big no-no.
Or that's like a really scary proposition because what that says to anyone who's investigating this is like, this is obvious money laundering then.
Because if you reimburse someone in cash, there's going to be no stamp on that transaction, right?
Even if you're using Cash App, even if you're using Venmo, even if you're using your credit card or a bank account, there's obviously a mark, a timing, a wire, you know?
Like, you can mark and you can have a chronology of where your money is going and when.
And you'd be able to then present the receipt to the court and be like, no, no, no, see, I paid him back here, here, here, and here.
I reimbursed him.
This wasn't me just, this wasn't me like low-level money laundering.
Like some goon in a mob.
Like some low-level goon monster.
Like this isn't just basic money laundering 101.
See, I reimbursed him.
Therefore, it's on the up and up.
But if you pay in cash, then there's no way to track it, right?
So that's going to be the crux of their defense.
That they paid in cash.
And that's what Big Fanny had to come schlomping and clomping into the courtroom to try and fix.
And this is why Big Fannie came actually screaming into the court when nobody was expecting her yesterday.
And it's going to be very, very cool, okay?
It's going to be very interesting, all right, to see the meltdown.
But I'm going to set the table here for you with a legal scholar named Andrew McCarthy on Fox News, who, after watching Big Fannie's testimony yesterday, said, and Andrew McCarthy, by the way, this guy, not a MAGA Republican, like, it's important to state this, like, Like, not a Trump guy.
Actually, like, some guy who doesn't like Trump at all, okay?
Not like a guy who's sitting there trying to, like, bias because he loves Trump so much.
We love Trump.
We have Trump's mugshot hanging in the studio.
I'm going to send Big Fanny a Christmas card for this mugshot.
Thank you, Big Fanny.
It's the greatest mugshot in the history of the earth.
But I digress.
So Andrew McCarthy is on saying, you don't understand, like, this case not only is dead, Like, because of what Big Fanny just did, she blew it up herself.
She destroyed her own case.
Not the way it's supposed to work.
Not with smart people.
But Big Fanny's wearing a dress backwards, and here's Andrew McCarthy saying it.
unidentified
Well, I think to that, Dana, her testimony yesterday was kind of a train wreck.
And it goes to some broader issues about, number one, her fitness to be the district attorney, not just her fitness to run this case.
If you remember the way, as I understand it, the way that this was teed up, she was not going to testify.
The state's whole approach yesterday to the hearing was the assumption that the district attorney was not going to take the stand.
And then suddenly, after hours of this proceeding, she comes in.
She was evidently not particularly well prepared to testify and was essentially just, you know, combative and non-responsive when she was under questioning.
And it makes you think that they prepared for this hearing, which was a very important hearing for them, under circumstances where they thought she was not going to be on the stand.
And then she came in and kind of blew it up.
benny johnson
She came in.
Big Fannie came in and absolutely blew it up.
Big Fanny is the Bud Light of district attorneys.
And we can prove it.
Much like Bud Light had a brand meltdown that was totally avoidable, by the way.
And that they were totally insulated from.
And they decided to blow themselves up, to destroy themselves over the past year.
Super Bowl is actually the anniversary of their Dylan Mulvaney.
Ad campaign.
So here we are on the anniversary of Bud Light.
We have Bud Light, the Bud Light of district attorneys, Fannie Willis, comes schlomping in and clomping into the courtroom like hell hath no fury and sits down in a clearly Emotional state.
I would argue a hysterical state if you were actually watching the body language of Fannie Willis yesterday.
And sits down and puts on a show unlike anything I've ever seen.
This is so much better than the old, like, you remember like Judge Judy or Judge Joe Brown?
Where they had like two low IQ people screaming at each other about public housing or whatever.
You know?
Some trailer park thing?
Like, dude, this is so much more entertaining than that.
And that was like made-for-TV fake court, where they were trying to get, like, dumb people to have arguments.
That was the whole point of those shows.
And now we get it for free!
unidentified
And this is supposed to be the smartest lawyer in America.
benny johnson
This is who all the limbs hung their salty dreams on.
Oh, man.
Oh, the salt must flow.
Let us begin, ladies and gentlemen.
Let us begin, okay?
Oh, can we put a...
Let us begin with the meltdown, okay?
The meltdown.
We have so many Fanny clips.
We're going to talk through them all.
It's too good.
It's too fun.
We are having the time of our lives.
Here is Fanny's...
Original meltdown, okay?
Fannie's original meltdown.
You gotta keep track of them because there's so many.
Fannie Willis decided that to prove to the court that she is a competent, smart prosecutor, she was going to start holding up papers, throwing them, and screaming.
Like normal, like professionals do, right?
In a courtroom.
Go.
unidentified
And where, when...
Did he come to, I guess, the condo?
I'm not sure what you called it, condo apartment.
Would he come and stay at that condo or visit you there?
I'm sorry, visit you there.
What condo?
What apartment?
I want to be clear.
So, not your house.
I know you classified one as house and one as condo, so I'm trying to use those terms.
See, what you don't understand is because of this case, I've got to move.
If you could ask a more precise question.
Yes, please.
Give me the time period.
Mr. Wade visits you at the place you laid your head.
When?
Has he ever visited you at the place you laid your head?
So let's be clear, because you've lied in this.
Let me tell you which one you lied in.
Right here?
I think you lied right here.
No, no, no, no.
This is the truth, Judge.
It is a lie.
benny johnson
It is a lie.
unidentified
Mr. Sano, thank you.
We're going to take five minutes.
We'll be back in five.
benny johnson
Divorce court!
1-800-BIG-FANNY!
unidentified
Only fannies!
benny johnson
Jerry, get me some more memes.
So many good memes this morning.
Jerry, get me some more memes.
Ooh, it's so good.
Oh, it's so much fun.
So, I'm a guy who loves to entertain.
I hope I can host you at my house someday for steak.
And, you know, a Belgian beer.
I don't really drink that much anymore.
I don't drink, like, virtually at all.
Have three kids under three, and you'll realize, like, the hangover ain't fun in the morning.
But let me tell you, like, we're trying to, like, do an entertaining show here, okay?
So if I take this stack of papers, and if I throw them at the studio and at the camera, and I, like, make a point by doing that, and try and, like, you know, be entertaining, well, that's the show, okay?
And we're, like, just streaming here.
So that's like the show.
But if you are the prosecutor who is prosecuting the most legally important, demonstrably critical to the future of the Republic case in America, and you start flinging papers around, screaming in the courthouse, screaming at the judge, so much so that the judge...
Has to take his gavel, turn it sideways, and shove it up your big fanny.
Meaning, he has to send you to timeout.
Okay?
Metaphorically.
He has to send you to timeout.
The judge had to timeout Fanny Willis inside of her own courtroom, right?
She's the district attorney in this courtroom.
This judge works with Fanny all the time.
That's bad.
That's not good.
Courtroom decorum.
And, like, being respectful and not being a hysterical mess and not being a disaster.
Remember the Johnny Depp, Amber Heard stuff?
Where, like, Amber Heard was doing bumps of coke in the court and, like, having an apoplectic meltdown?
Like, and being, like, just hysterical?
It didn't help her case.
It hurt her case.
Like, composure and being confident and simply being in control?
Like, these are things that help you.
Fannie Willis being sent to timeout by the judge?
Hurts her.
It's not good for her.
It's bad for her.
Also snapping and being rude to the prosecutor who's prosecuting you.
Also not good, right?
Check this out.
unidentified
He initially paid for that.
For Aruba, yes ma 'am.
So let's talk about both of those.
I know he initially paid for it.
Did you pay him back?
For the cruise and for Aruba.
Yeah, I gave him his money before we ever went on that trip.
You gave him cash before you ever went on the trip?
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
And so when you got cash to pay him back on these trips, would you go to the ATM?
No, lady.
You would not go to the ATM?
No.
benny johnson
No, lady.
No, lady.
You want to get thrown out of court?
Start having hysterical meltdowns.
Start disrespecting the judge, the lawyers, the petitioners of the court.
Start throwing things.
And then you want to destroy your case against Trump.
Start proving your own personal bias against Trump.
This is the clip that Tom Fitton talked about last night when we did an interview.
Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch.
This is the clip.
That he says, I mean, this is how your case is done, okay?
So all the antics and all the hysterical, you know, like low information, low-functioning stuff, that's funny and entertaining.
This is the clip that actually gets you thrown off the case forever.
Because what you've done here is now you've biased yourself against your own case by saying, those Trump people, they're on trial, they're a bunch of election stealers.
unidentified
That's what she said.
benny johnson
I'm not on trial.
They're on trial.
They're a bunch of election stealers.
Well, dude, Fannie Willis has been presented to us as this, like, judicious, unbiased, equal weight before the law, like, true masquerade of jurisprudence.
Nope!
unidentified
Nope!
benny johnson
She's just a Trump-deranged, Soros-funded lunatic.
Low-IQ lunatic.
Watch.
unidentified
So, your office objected to us getting Delta records for flights that you may have taken with Mr. Wade.
Well, no, no, no, look.
I object to you getting records.
You've been intrusive into people's personal lives.
You're confused.
You think I'm on trial.
These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020.
I'm not on trial, no matter how hard you try to put me on trial.
Okay.
benny johnson
Let's put up that Trump meme, Royce.
That's a good one.
I'm not on Trump.
See what you mean?
I'm not on trial!
You're on trial!
No, you're on trial!
It's so good!
unidentified
Oh, it's so good!
benny johnson
Listen, judges' jobs are to obviously decide, the judges are going to decide, based on the merits and the facts of the case, any good judge will.
But it's also a judge's job to ensure that their courtroom allows for all parties And everyone in the legal profession to be respectfully heard.
And for their testimonies to be heard.
When a judge strikes down a testimony and says, you're not allowed to testify on your behalf, that's the biggest insult, that's the biggest punishment a judge can give you.
Okay?
Their job is to rule on the case.
Okay?
So the judge will rule whatever the facts present.
Okay?
If you're talking about a good judge.
But if a judge strikes down your testimony, Because you are being such a maligned idiot and being such a duplicitous sociopath, then that is actually the largest punishment a judge can give you in the trial.
Because then the judge is saying, you are such an unhinged sociopath that I'm not going to allow you to testify on your own defense.
You're clearly crazy, lady.
And the judge did that to Fannie Willis yesterday.
Watch.
unidentified
That's before I had to abandon my home judge.
And at my home in South Fulton, he never came there, okay?
So if you don't come someplace, you can't live there.
Ms. Willis, I'm going to have to caution.
This is going to be my first time I have to caution.
We have to listen to the questions as asked.
And if this happens again and again, I'm going to have no choice but to strike your testimony.
I need to break this down.
This merchant's question, I believe, is asking whether you lived anywhere other than South Folk.
benny johnson
I love this meme.
Donald Trump is the cat.
You know this meme.
Trump's the cat.
Oh, yeah, ladies and gentlemen.
Okay.
So how about the other things that Fannie Willis did?
I mean, it's so...
It becomes, like, very tough to actually count the numerous lies.
And potential illegal activities that she has now embroiled herself in.
It's incredible.
Just a reminder, by the way, that Fannie Willis is now facing federal charges.
She has a federal subpoena that was delivered to her via federal marshals, sent by Congress.
Like, Big Fannie is about to get some really hard time.
Big Fannie lied.
Under oath.
Let's begin by putting this tweet up.
Big Fanny's been to the White House, okay?
This is not another Fanny Willis on the White House visitor logs.
Big Fanny's been to the White House.
This is not something that is, like, something concocted by InfoWars.
Although, like, the headline is insane enough.
Big Fanny goes to the White House, goes and meets with the January 6th committee, and they're like, oh, she's really smart.
unidentified
We should trust her with everything.
benny johnson
Big Fannie's been in the White House, okay?
Fannie Willis.
Amazing how she began charging Trump as soon as she got out of all these little meetings.
Clearly, based on the testimony yesterday, you know, my boy George ain't smart enough to hatch a scam like that.
But Big Fannie yesterday said, I've never been to the White House.
So who's lying?
I mean, I would doubt that it's the White House.
I doubt the White House manufactured this visitor log.
So Fannie Willis is saying the White House lied about her visit?
What's going on here?
Have a listen.
unidentified
My next question is based on her opening the door, and therefore I'll just ask it and your honor can decide whether or not it's appropriate.
When you went to D.C., did you go to the White House?
I did not go to the White House.
Well, apparently I'm going to get the answer anyhow.
There you have it.
Next question.
Okay.
benny johnson
So you haven't been to the White House?
I've never been to the White House.
Lady, this is directly from the whitehouse.gov, visitor logs.
unidentified
So...
benny johnson
You can see why they didn't call her as a witness.
You can see why they didn't call her.
It's not looking good.
unidentified
Okay?
benny johnson
There's something else that's really popping off here, ladies and gentlemen, and that is the money element to this.
We got some real problems with Fannie.
The way that she spent money was haphazard at best, and politically...
And career suicidal at worst.
Let me explain.
You're not allowed to steal money from your campaign for your own personal vacations.
You're not allowed to just go hand out money willy-nilly in campaign cash to anybody that says you owe them money.
That doesn't make any sense.
Okay?
If...
You are doing that.
You are committing federal crimes based on FEC rules, based on like a ton of rules.
I mean, people go to jail all the time for this kind of stuff.
You can't spend campaign.
You can't just go rob your campaign coffers and then go pay your friends.
But ladies and gentlemen, this is exactly what happened.
Fannie Willis admitted to it.
This wasn't like some bombshell thing that had to be found out.
Fannie Willis straight up admits.
She robbed her campaign kitty, put the money in her own personal bank account, took the cash from her campaign, and then paid her friends a G. If they asked for a G, they're going to get $1,000.
Okay, every campaign finance lawyer in the country just collectively winces and realized, like, this case is over.
We have some very interesting expert commentary on this, but you gotta watch this clip, okay?
Candy Will is talking about literally, quite literally, stealing from her campaign and giving her friend G's.
unidentified
Go.
So I just, like, took campaign cash out of my campaign account.
benny johnson
And I just shoved it into my pillow.
And when my friends needed cash from my campaign, they just told me what they needed.
You need a G?
unidentified
Here's a G. Go.
And then he tells me how much it is, and I give him the money back.
I don't, just like you're asking me about the money with Robin, I don't do my friends like that.
So if you tell me it's a G, then you're gonna get $1,000.
Whatever it is, I didn't ever make him produce receipts to me.
Whatever he told me it was, I gave him the money back.
Oh.
benny johnson
My.
God.
unidentified
Okay.
Why didn't they call Fanny Willis to the stand this morning?
benny johnson
It's a total mystery!
One time Fanny Willis thought she was being called a cash whore.
I'm not trying to be grotesque or rude.
I try as hard as I can not to curse on this show and do a family-friendly show.
It's Fanny Willis.
That said, are you calling me a cash whore?
After explaining these obvious crimes using cash, like a criminal, Fanny Willis, this would be called a Freudian slip, when you just sort of put the words in the mouth because you're so guilty.
Certainly not the only thing getting put in the mouth around here, but like, anyway.
Mind out of the gutter, Benny.
Okay.
But, but, dude, like, her mind's not.
Out of the gutter.
She goes, did you just call me a cash whore?
The petitioner's like, what?
What the hell are you talking about, lady?
Watch.
unidentified
My words.
Cash whore that you had collected over time.
Cash what?
Horde.
H-O-R-D-E.
Oh, I thought you said something different, sir.
No, I'm afraid I wouldn't say that.
Any circumstances to you or in horde.
All right, back on track.
The horde.
Cash whore death.
I would not classify.
benny johnson
So...
Okay.
So you got Nathan Wade being like, you asking me about having intercourse with her, sir?
And the petitioner's like, okay, I guess.
I mean, since you're the one, you're gonna say it.
And then Fannie Willis is like, you calling me a cash whore?
And he's like, no!
What is, who are you people?
Like, it's amazing.
The attorney for the prosecution is like, what is happening now?
unidentified
It's like, it's really special.
benny johnson
It's really special.
But we haven't gotten to the daytime courtroom drama yet, and I'm so excited about this.
This is the part that I'm really excited about.
Let's put up some memes, please.
Put up a couple memes.
The one in bed is pretty funny.
unidentified
Okay, this one's pretty good too.
benny johnson
So, the real special part about this is that Fanny Willis and Loverboy clearly don't like each other.
And that's what's kind of interesting.
Is that Fanny Willis and Loverboy are, like, not in a good place, let's just say.
Because Fanny Willis did her best attempt at, like, destroying this man's.
unidentified
Character.
benny johnson
To the court.
Here's something that you shouldn't say in the modern world, okay?
I'm not talking about on this show.
I'm not saying it's right or wrong.
It's just something you shouldn't say in this modern world.
Hey, woman, make me a sandwich.
And that's all women are good for.
I'm not saying that.
That's what Fannie Willis said.
Fannie Willis said that that's all Nathan Wade thinks of women.
I, like, I kid you not.
She tells the court, under penalty of perjury, under oath, that lover boy, Nathan Wade, the sweaty guy, who couldn't answer any questions, that that guy just thinks women are good enough, the only use for women are making a sandwich.
Again, I am simply repeating what Fannie Willis told the court yesterday, okay?
Let's hear it for yourself, straight from Big Fannie.
unidentified
Mr., let's go on and have a conversation.
I'm just asking you whether or not it was a coincidence.
It had absolutely nothing to do with this.
It's interesting that we're here about this money.
Mr. Wade is used to women that, as he told me one time, the only thing a woman can do for him is make him a sandwich.
We would have brutal arguments about the fact that I am your equal.
I don't need anything from a man.
A man is not a plan.
A man is a companion.
And so there was tension always in our relationship, which is why I was giving him his money back.
I don't need anybody to foot my bills.
The only man who's ever foot my bills completely is my daddy.
The only man who's ever foot my bills completely is my daddy.
What?
What?
benny johnson
So they hate each other.
So this is actually a lover's quarrel.
unidentified
This is actually divorce court.
benny johnson
It's so embarrassing.
It's so degrading.
Here's a photo of Nathan Wade after hearing that fanny answer.
Come on, cigarette one.
Yeah, yeah.
Too easy.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Fanny Willis just told the whole world, I think women are just good enough to make a sandwich.
unidentified
What?
benny johnson
Oh, and it got worse for Nathan.
We haven't even started.
She hasn't even started on.
She hasn't even started on the hot dog roller.
Nathan's hot dog roller was just getting rolling.
Okay?
Ladies and gentlemen.
Not only did Fanny Willis talk about her and Nathan's hot dog's relationship as just grinding together.
Maybe she is a member of Criss Cross.
But she also talks about his sexual functioning.
Again, you gotta watch the lawyers.
The lawyers are like, what are you talking about?
I would never do this, okay?
We make funny jokes, we make puns, okay?
Puns, whatever.
Nathan's hot dog, it's a pun!
It's punny!
But here's Fanny Willis talking about Nathan, like, Nathan Wade's, like, saying she's, like, emasculating a black man.
Talking about his sexual function.
It's, it's beyond comprehension, okay?
Her and Nathan were just grinding.
And she's not going to emasculate a black man.
But there's some things he can't do.
Not my words!
Loverboy's decision to get all up in that big fanny.
And, um...
Not a great choice.
Not a great choice.
Have a listen.
unidentified
Last area, briefly.
Yes, sir.
You had contact with Mr. Wade in the year 2020, correct?
Ooh.
I had some contact with Mr. Wade.
Would you explain when you say some contact?
Please tell us.
Talk about 2020.
I had some contact with Mr. Wade in 2020.
One of the reasons your allegations are so preposterous or Ms. Merchant's that you have joined is...
Ma 'am, I didn't ask you about the allegations.
I asked you about your contact.
That's all I ask you.
Okay?
I appreciate that you want to say something.
But I'm interested in, did you have contacts with Mr. Wade in 2020?
And your answer so far has been yes, correct?
Very limited contact because Mr. Wade had a form of cancer that makes your allegations somewhat ridiculous.
I do appreciate the characterization.
I'm not going to emasculate a black man, but I'm just telling you.
I'm sorry, what?
I'm not going to emasculate a black man.
Did you understand that?
I don't think we should discuss further.
Did you go out to eat with him?
Maybe.
Probably.
Did you visit him in any location?
His office?
Or did he visit you in your office in 2020?
I am sure he...
I'm sure...
That's a very good question.
I'm sure he came to 750 in 2020.
750 is?
Was my office.
Okay.
Not often, but maybe once or twice.
Maybe I went to his office once or twice, but maybe once.
And the purpose for going to his office would have been what?
Maybe we would have went to Mellow Mushrooms for pizza, or maybe he would have come for lunch.
I'm sure we went by each other's office, though.
But not often.
Not a lot.
We both grinding.
Trying to make a living.
benny johnson
We both grinding.
We both grinding.
There you go.
Here's Big Fanny grinding.
As she embezzles taxpayer money.
In order to go on vacations paid for by Loverboy, who she's also paying nearly a million dollars in taxpayer funds to, and is just absolutely incapable of defending herself.
As she emasculates the black man talking about his sexual function.
Saying that I'm not a cash whore, her words, not mine, to the gasping of the prosecutors.
And as Nathan Wade sweats like one of those hot dogs in the hot dog roller at 7-Eleven profusely and is incapable of making any sense.
As they have both lied under oath.
We have the receipts, by the way.
Ladies and gentlemen, you can see here that...
Fannie Willis and Nathan Wade have both signed petitions that say that their relationship started in 2022.
But there are now multiple witnesses saying, that's all a lie.
The reason why that relationship starting earlier is important is because it establishes the motive to get Nathan Wade onto this case.
Nathan Wade admitting that there is...
60-70% of his income that comes from this case, the Donald Trump case.
The Donald Trump case is a money laundering case.
It's a RICO case, not for Trump, but for them.
Do you understand?
Do you see?
It's them who were money laundering.
It's wild, okay?
It's wild.
And it really does, like, the shot of the day is this, ladies and gentlemen.
Shot of the day is this.
In case you're wondering if these people, like who you're dealing with, as Donald Trump would say, they're not sending their best.
This is the shot of the day.
The dress is on backwards.
The American flag is in distress.
And the wearers of these two things is having a meltdown before the court.
And it's not just us.
That notice here, ladies and gentlemen.
There was a total and complete media panic.
From the same press whose role it is to vociferously defend people like Fannie Willis, that same media had a meltdown yesterday.
Total and complete panic saying, and these aren't Fox News clips, leftist media was like, this case is done.
We need to start talking.
We need to talk about something else.
unidentified
Please.
benny johnson
Please, God.
Anything else.
They're finished.
Watch.
unidentified
This is getting ugly, and it's getting messy, and my guess is it's not going to get better.
It's about lying to the court.
It's about potential financial gain on the part of Fannie Willis.
The issue is that her credibility is shot.
It's a horrible, horrible look for her.
I think this case is dead in the water.
Fannie Willis lied to the court.
It's game over for her.
she will be disqualified.
*laughing* Yeah.
benny johnson
So that's what CNN and NBC are saying?
What's Fox News saying?
This was our favorite roast of the day yesterday, other than some of our own.
But ladies and gentlemen, very few do it better than Gutfeld.
unidentified
Go.
greg gutfeld
Yeah, I think The View found a backup host.
I mean, the amount of nonsense she can unload matches all of them combined.
I'm like the judge.
I didn't know you could be this combative and belligerent.
I mean, that's okay, I guess.
I mean, does the average guy get the same leeway to do that?
I mean, why are they so hands-up?
I'd really like to know.
I'm telling you, man, that was...
It was exhausting.
I felt like I was on...
I was...
Trapped with a combative customer service rep from a rental car agency who is battling me on everything.
Like, I said that I wanted a four-door.
No, we're out of two doors.
Did you say that?
No, we only have two doors.
But I'm pretty sure I said convertible.
We don't have any convertibles.
Are you saying I'm lying?
She was amazing.
She was trying to flood the zone.
With a barrage of frantic words, asides and tangents.
It was like listening to a shoplifter tell a cop her life story when he's just asking her, did you put a Snickers bar in your purse?
I mean, I guess she's like hoping that people will forget what the case is about as long as you keep building and building this nonsense.
Instead of digging a bigger hole, you dig a bunch of little holes over here and hope people just fall in.
And it just got, after a while, I couldn't handle it.
benny johnson
A shoplifter talking.
That's a great meme.
A shoplifter talking about telling the cop their life story after the cop's like, did you just take a Snickers bar?
How do you defend it?
How do you defend Fanny Willis?
You can't.
unidentified
You can't.
benny johnson
There is no defense.
They tried.
I'm going to do my best, okay, on this program.
To play you the defense of Fannie Willis, as best as they can possibly.
So the multinational, publicly traded, billion-dollar media superplex of the Democrat Party got together and said, how do we polish this turd?
What do we do?
unidentified
How can we fix the Big Fannie?
benny johnson
And here's what they've come up with.
Okay, I got it.
We make her a feminist hero!
Here's CNN's attempt at saving Big Fanny.
unidentified
She is indignant about the accusations and going into that particular aspect of it.
The inference is that she needs a man to pay for her.
And she made it clear yesterday that a man is not a plan.
It's not somebody who's going to treat her or sort of be this savior in her life.
She doesn't need that.
She made a point.
That was important because of the finances, right?
Because the idea of whether the personal benefit was derived was tied to financial gain.
And I want to pick on this because there was an inference yesterday from defense attorneys that her having these stacks of cash somehow is sort of nefarious or that should lead to some question marks.
It might be a cultural thing.
I know a lot of black and brown people who keep cash on them.
There's a mistrust of the systems at large.
People feel like this is our hard-earned money that we earn with blood, sweat, and tears.
It's certainly something that happens here in Atlanta and beyond in our community, so I don't think that is sort of a gotcha moment for the defense attorneys at all, Lord.
Well, we will see what it means.
My great-grandmother died at 105, and I know she had money in her insulation.
John?
Yeah.
benny johnson
Good one, Royce.
So, ladies and gentlemen, as we all watch the meltdown ourselves, as we all see it in all of its glory, you have to ask, can it get any worse?
Of course it can.
Of course it can.
So you always judge a man by their defenders, right?
You judge these people by, who's defending you, right?
In the public arena.
Do the people who are defending you, do they have credit or value in the public space?
Who are the people who have, like, you know, credentials to throw behind you?
51 Intel experts say that Hunter Biden's laptop has all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation, alright?
Whatever, however fraudulent that was.
So, the defender that was trotted out to push Big Fanny...
Is a guy named Jeffrey Toobin.
He's otherwise known as Lubin Toobin.
Kindly and prayerfully known as Lubin Toobin on CNN.
Jeffrey Toobin shouldn't not just be allowed on CNN's airwaves, he shouldn't be allowed in public without an ankle monitor.
Jeffrey Toobin, and again, I am not trying to be grotesque here, nor am I trying to be pornographic.
I just gotta say it like it is, cover the ears of your kids if they're listening.
Jeffrey Toobin was caught masturbating in public.
That's a matter of fact.
He was fired.
It gets worse.
Jeffrey Toobin was masturbating in public while live on camera in front of his female journalist colleagues.
And yet Jeffrey Toobin, not only is not in prison for this, should be, Probably should be.
The guy's a complete pervert.
Jeffrey Toobin, lovingly known as Lubin Toobin, is now on CNN again.
And Lubin Toobin is the guy they bring out to defend the Big Fanny.
Nathan's hot dog.
So Nathan's hot dog and Big Fanny have to call in and try to get the best defense they can and they get Lubin Toobin.
Okay?
unidentified
And the defense is pretty weak.
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, we got libs to salt here.
So, let's make this our salt that lib of the day.
Should have been the last clip, but that's okay.
Let's get out our salt shakers, okay?
A lot of salt to shake.
A lot of salt shaker.
A lot of salt shaking action here.
There you go.
Get out our salt shakers.
Let's salt that lib.
Here's lube and tubing.
The best defense for Fanny Willis.
unidentified
Go.
Willis Willis's...
About when the relationship began.
About when it started.
And this is a classic case of the cover-up is worse than the crime.
But the only person making that allegation is this one witness.
Can I ask you a question?
So what?
So what if they had this relationship?
The question is, did they lie about it?
I agree with you.
So what if they had it?
Exactly.
But why does this prejudice Donald Trump or any of these defendants at all?
greg gutfeld
I mean, that's the thing that's so baffling about all this.
unidentified
Suppose they have this relationship.
greg gutfeld
Suppose they lied.
unidentified
Why does that disqualify them in this proceeding?
An attorney lying to the court is not good.
Look at all the salt.
Look at all the salt we get.
benny johnson
So, if the guy who was fired for being a public serial masturbator, it's grotesque to even say it, if he's your best defense, and his defense of you is, who cares?
unidentified
Whatever!
benny johnson
Like, okay, you're gonna need a drink after that one.
You're gonna need some adult beverages after that.
Ladies and gentlemen, luckily, based on her expert testimony yesterday, we know about Fannie Willis' adult beverage behavior.
She was happy to tell us.
This is our nuclear cringe of the day.
Fannie Grey Goose.
Let's go.
unidentified
Let's go.
He likes wine.
I don't really like wine, to be honest with you.
I like Grey Goose.
I bought him a bottle of wine while we were there, and the sippings that you do.
benny johnson
Okay.
unidentified
So there's Grey Goose.
benny johnson
There's the Grey Goose.
You have the Grey Goose ad?
That's pretty good.
Vanny Willis loves Grey Goose.
She says, he likes wine, I like Grey Goose, she says.
Don't touch my Grey Goose.
Good job, Fanny.
Some real police work there.
There you go.
Yeah, I don't think it went well for Big Fanny.
And we were just wall-to-wall.
Very excited about it.
And very excited about the result, the end result, which will be that Big Fanny will most likely be prosecuted herself.
Which is what we're rooting for here.
Because Big Fanny...
Well, has been lying under oath, has been committing obvious tax fraud and campaign fraud, and has been lying to the court again and again and again.
We know this.
In the year 2022, Fannie Willis was questioned about her financial disclosure to the court, and she claimed that she didn't receive any gifts from Nathan Wade.
Totally more than $100.
We literally have the receipts for her taking thousands of dollars worth of luxurious vacations all around the world.
She says she didn't know which continent Bermuda was in yesterday, too, by the way.
They're not sending their best.
Watch.
unidentified
It defines it as someone that you know or should know is seeking to do or is doing business with the county, correct?
Yes, but I...
Yes, let me...
Yes.
That includes Mr. Wade as of the date you filled out this form, correct?
Yes, but he never gave me a gift of $100 or more.
The only thing that I would say Maybe went over that, but I don't think it ever did.
If we went to dinner and my meal was $100, but I don't think I've ever eaten $100 worth of food at a restaurant.
Because I would not pay him back if we went to lunch or went to dinner.
But trips, I paid him back for.
I never thought about the money until y 'all brought it up.
And I would be less than honest.
It says I was giving him the money back because I was the district attorney.
I didn't take gifts from him.
For a lot of personal reasons.
Anyway, I did not take gifts from him.
benny johnson
Well, here's the receipts.
Right?
Here's the receipts.
Donald Trump also posted a, on Truth Social, Donald Trump posted a screenshot of all of the gifts that she did get from him.
Can we grab that truth?
It's like a screenshot from Fox.
It was very interesting.
Fox sort of broke down all of the...
There it is.
All of the gifts.
This is a nice little rejoinder.
I did not...
She said, under oath, I did not get any gifts from Nathan Witt.
Well, here you go.
We've not only shown you the receipts.
Here you go.
$3,000, $3,000, $2,500, $1,000.
Boy, they sure do like going on cruises.
They sure do like it.
Sure do like those cruises.
How'd they get the money for that?
Very interesting.
Donald Trump.
Fannie never paid cash.
She got free trips and other things from her lover with the absorbent amounts of money she authorized to pay him.
A giant scam witch hunt.
Donald Trump laying it out as ever.
Clearly, concisely, and simply.
Donald Trump continuing, ladies and gentlemen.
Hold on, let's pull it up.
They're talking about Georgia fanny scandal all over the world.
In fact, by far trending number one.
I cannot believe the Georgia state judiciary and governor can't be happy about this humiliating embarrassment.
It was a fake case from the start.
Major League scandal.
Pundits and experts are calling it a witch hunt.
Donald Trump's winning this one, ladies and gentlemen.
Donald Trump's winning this one.
It's not pretty.
And it's going to be worse, ladies and gentlemen.
It's going to get worse for Fannie.
We know this because we've been able to track Fannie's history in this office.
And we've been able to see that Fannie Willis has, from the get, from the beginning of her running for this office, Been not only lying to her voters, because she ran for this office in the year 2020, the relationship with Nathan Wade started in 2019, she's been lying to the court.
Like, it's one thing, it's an immoral thing to lie to the voters who elect you.
It is also a criminal thing to lie to the court.
Here's Fannie Willis in 2020 running for office, saying if she gets elected, well, she promises that finally you'll have a district attorney who's not having sex with her employees.
unidentified
You say?
Ms. Willis, Judge Willis, what law did he violate?
A few, but let's try this on for size.
The district attorney's office in Fulton should be the beacon of the southeast.
It should be the absolute best office between Washington, D.C. and Miami.
And right now, what you have is an office of dysfunction and corruption, and we deserve better.
And I am the right choice to improve it.
Corruption.
Ms. Willis, that's a strong word to level against the office that Paul Howard has run for nearly a quarter of a century.
If he gets re-elected...
It would be more than 25 years.
You have a DA sitting there that doesn't have the qualifications and the experience to do the job.
What I can guarantee you is with my reputation, with my community ties, I am going to be able to attract the best and the brightest minds to that office.
You're sitting with someone today that actually wants to make a difference because they deserve a DA that won't have sex with his employees, because they deserve a DA that won't put money in their own pocket when it should.
go to benefit children because we deserve better.
benny johnson
What do we say?
What do we say about criminals and about evil people on this program?
We go back to the Old Testament and we read about the kings of old.
And yeah, those kings of old were corrupt and some of them got away with it, right?
Judgment is the Lord's, okay?
But the God of the Old Testament is still God.
And many of the evil kings and the evil rulers and the evil lords were punished in due time and were brought low and humiliated based on their actions.
And that's happening right now, ladies and gentlemen.
Fanny Willis saying, you need to elect me because I won't embezzle funds and misuse them and I won't have sex with my staff.
Her words.
And then what does she do?
Well, even while she said that, she was having sex with her staff and embezzling funds.
Like, whilst she was saying that, she admitted to yesterday stealing her campaign funds.
Having sex with her staff.
Donald Trump posting a very concise, very simple clip on Truth Social.
unidentified
Like, she's a liar.
Okay?
benny johnson
And...
I think that the voters are really seeing through all this in Fulton County.
unidentified
Watch.
kevin oleary
He's lying.
That's what I think.
And they'll call him out on it.
It just feels that way.
It sounds that way.
He had a relationship with her long before he said he did.
That's just the way it is.
And I'm really surprised that the lawyers have said, did you ever have sexual relationships with this woman before this date?
Is he going to lie on that stand?
Is that coming?
In the next round of questions, because at some point that's coming, he'll either purge himself, purge himself, or he'll admit the truth, and he is in trouble either way.
benny johnson
Oh, a fanny pack!
The fanny pack with the cash!
Donald Trump trolling Fanny Willis yesterday in a way that only he can during a speech.
Very funny.
Ladies and gentlemen, we'll have updates from Trump campaign spokesperson Carolyn Leavitt in just a moment.
She was just on Fox.
Here's Donald Trump going in on Big Fan.
donald j trump
This has never happened in our country before.
And the local DAs are part of it and the attorney generals are all a part of it.
You saw what happened in Atlanta with F-A-N-I, F-A-N-I.
How do you pronounce F-A-N-I, F-A-N-I?
They interviewed her.
I would never have an affair with anybody in my office.
Well, she had an affair.
unidentified
And they paid the guy almost a million dollars.
benny johnson
Bonnie.
Say it with me.
Bonnie.
Donald Trump's campaign, getting the laughs laugh here.
A lot of laughs actually being had.
Donald Trump's campaign spokesperson, Caroline Levitt, was just on Fox News and was...
Going full-bore savage mode on Fonny.
Fonny.
The commentary from the Trump campaign.
We're pretty close with people who are in the Trump campaign.
They're whistling Dixie right now.
They are happy as clams.
They are pretty happy right now about the way this is going.
This has backfired so spectacularly.
Have a listen to the official...
Donald Trump campaign spokesperson, Caroline Levitt, on Fox News just seconds ago about the big meltdown of Big Fanny.
unidentified
Caroline Levitt, Donald Trump's national press secretary, with me now, and good morning to you.
We might be interrupted if the judge comes back on, so let's squeeze in as much as we can.
The reaction from yesterday in the Trump team is what, Caroline?
Well, clearly Fannie Willis didn't do herself any favors yesterday, and that's why she's not appearing in court today.
And her testimony yesterday proved that President Trump has been right about this case since the beginning.
This is a sham case brought on by corrupt people who care more about prosecuting him than the violent criminals who are running free in Atlanta and Fulton County right now.
This case should absolutely be dismissed, not just because of this alleged misconduct, but also on the basis of the law.
And it's such a shame to watch this yesterday fold out.
You see, you see, this is such a dereliction of duty on behalf of these people who are supposed to be demanding law and order.
The American people deserve better than this.
Violent crime has spiked in Fulton County.
President Trump was in a courtroom in New York City yesterday at the behest of Alvin Bragg.
And let's not forget Joe Biden.
While we have illegal immigrants beating up cops in the street, these people should be focusing on demanding law and order and putting real criminals behind bars.
not the former president of the United States who made this country better.
Here we go.
91 felony counts, four indictments, courtrooms from New York down to Atlanta and beyond.
There you see it on your screen.
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a breaking update.
Fannie Willis' Black Panther father, who taught her how to store her money in cash in her pillowcase, will not be testifying today.
Also, they've pulled that witness.
So the state continues to pull the witnesses.
The state continues to say, we're done.
We're finished.
We're done.
It's done.
It's done.
We've been destroyed.
And I think it's going to get worse, actually.
Because Fannie Willis will now face federal subpoenas and federal trials.
And it's going to be much worse than these little puny state courts.
Then he's going to have to go testify under penalty of perjury before the Republicans in the House.
And so, ladies and gentlemen, prepare for more pain.
Now, we have often played on this show one of our favorite people of all time.
One of our favorite people in history was actually...
A unnamed voter in Fannie Willis' district who did an impression of Fannie Willis with a Nathan's hot dog.
It's what's led to hundreds of thousands of hot dog emojis being dropped and sprinkled into the comment section.
And it's what's led to great tears of joy and happiness from our audience.
And we feel like it would be inappropriate for us to not play you the clip of a fat-ass sass and frass, no class.
Just quoting a resident of Fulton County doing what was a spot-on impression of Fonny, with the exception of the backwards dress.
unidentified
It's not looking pretty.
benny johnson
Let's go.
unidentified
My name is Fat-Ass Sass and Crass, no class, Fulton County.
I got a little bit of a PR problem.
Natalie, you might be able to help me with, I could use the name of your PR firm.
You know, the one that got you on the top 100 list?
That's the kind of PR I'm looking for.
You know, I know you'll understand that nothing and nobody comes between me and my Nathan's hot dog.
Yeah.
Come on up in here now, my dark and lovely lunch.
Oh, yeah.
There you are.
Come on.
Yes, my PR firm, all they tell me to do is take me to church.
Yeah.
Take me to church.
I worship you, dog.
You're the light of my life.
Please forgive me my sins, but I would fall on a knife.
You are my destiny, baby, good God.
Just get rid of your wife.
Take me to church.
I go to work.
I get my freak on!
Take me to church.
I write a check.
They let me say a few words.
Okay.
benny johnson
How entertaining has all this been?
What did we do to deserve this?
What a joy.
Ladies and gentlemen, what a special, special treasure for us to have these moments and to be witness to what is the true collapse of a regime.
And we are excited about it.
We've been calling this from a thousand yards away.
Many months ago, probably six months ago, before we ever had our beautiful Donald Trump mugshot, we said, here, ladies and gentlemen, is a clip.
Of Fulton County, Donald Trump driving his car through the city after getting arrested by Fannie Willis.
And we said, look at the people.
Look at them march into the street.
Look at them cheer for Trump.
Can we turn the volume up just a little bit?
unidentified
What you hear them saying, listen to the cheering.
benny johnson
What you hear them saying is Fannie Dunn effed up.
Hear that?
Free Trump!
unidentified
I'm talking about they got everybody.
benny johnson
Is what they scream.
And so we said the moment this happens, this was going to backfire.
We said the moment this happens, this was going to be a disaster for them.
They've bitten off more than they could chew and little did we know, ladies and gentlemen.
That in the end, they'd have to take it right in the fanny.
Little did we know how right we were.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
So that is where we stand today.
Fanny Willis will not be testifying.
They are canceling all of the rest of the potential witnesses.
And they are effectively admitting that this case is done.
This case is lost.
And now they're going to move to containment.
The strategy is going to be how do we possibly save ourselves and not all go to prison?
That's going to be the next step.
It's going to be really, really interesting, ladies and gentlemen.
And we are here for it.
You can believe that.
We can show you sort of what's going on in the courtroom right now just to show you that we've been monitoring it.
They're like, they're like gonna bring in, they're planning on bringing in a witness that is like very sympathetic to Big Fanny.
And so like some guy, like former Georgia Governor Roy Barnes, who's gonna be a total snooze fest.
There are a couple live feeds of this.
We don't think.
You know, we don't think that this is going to be particularly compelling because, well, they've already been busted.
They've already admitted defeat.
Fannie Willis and her father were both supposed to testify today to give some type of boom, clap, hallelujah, chorus, like courtroom, Mr. Smith goes to Washington defense.
Nah, man.
Nah.
They're done.
They've admitted it now.
They're done.
These people are totally sick.
I mean, I guess what we got here, let's go ahead and listen to the guy's question.
Let's just take a minute of this.
Let's just listen so you guys can see.
unidentified
I asked the court and the court says, go ahead and you can do it.
That's all right.
I'll do whatever the court is.
I hear you.
And you should too.
I don't know.
benny johnson
They know.
This is the prosecutor.
unidentified
I'm not always successful, but I try.
benny johnson
They're laughing.
unidentified
If I pinpoint a date, for example, I think the record is clear that Mr. Wade was hired for the position on November 1 of 2021.
Does that help you out?
No, it does not.
Then let's go to the meeting.
It sounds like it was just one meeting.
Yes.
And could you tell us where that meeting took place?
It was in the conference room adjacent to the district attorney's office.
So was it in this adjoining building?
It was in the Louis Slayton building.
And District Attorney Willis was there, obviously, right?
Yes.
And Mr. Wade was there?
The best I recall, now I could be mistaken about that, it's like anything that far away.
But that's my recollection.
Do you have a recollection of anyone else being present?
Yeah, there were some other folks, but I don't remember.
Do you remember?
Were you introduced to Mr. Wade by anything other than you already knew him?
Was he given a title or anything?
So, at least as you're there, if I heard you correctly, Ms. Willis did all the talking Mr. Wade did not.
I mean, we exchanged pleasantries, but as far as the basis of the conversation, the reason I was there was Willis.
And would you be able to give us an estimate of how long this meeting lasted?
Probably an hour.
And during the meeting, you made it clear that it was the thanks for the offer, but no thank you.
Oh, yes.
I did.
As I said, you know, I started off as a prosecutor.
And for about 10 or 15 years, I did nothing but criminal.
But I've tried to move away from it and do primarily civil now.
Mr. Gillen and I have done some white-collar cases over in federal court, and I've got one over there right now.
But it's generally business-related, you know, where I have a client that's got a kid or him getting indicted.
The case I have over there now is an alleged fraud case.
Fair to say that based on your career and the work that you've done, you've handled high-profile cases, correct?
I have.
I've handled some pretty good cases.
I sued Syria one time for beheading a client of mine who recovered $82 million.
I guess that's the best high profile, but that was in D.C. I tried that in D.C. And what would be considered complex cases?
You've handled those as well, correct?
Yes.
I mean, we regularly do mass torts, class actions, business torts, breach of contract, and most of those are high complex.
Our complex requiring many experts.
We also do malpractice.
I did malpractice defense for about 25 years, but since I've returned from the governor's office, I try not to represent an insurance company anymore, and I just tried a malpractice case for Judge Edlin in November.
And those are complex cases because of the type of, you know, medical...
knowledge and that you have to have and also because of the many experts that you have.
Thank you.
Did Ms. Willis, and this is the last question, did Ms. Willis tell you why she had sought you, why you had been her choice?
No.
I hadn't, but you know, I get consulted fairly often on major cases.
Would you believe based on circumstances in which you were?
Given the offer, that it had to do with the fact that you had handled complex and high-profile cases in the past?
It could have been.
I know her very well.
I tried a case against her.
She worked for the JQC.
benny johnson
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, we're muting this guy.
Total snoozefest.
Go to sleep on this dude faster than a MyPillow full of cash.
From Fannie Willis.
And ladies and gentlemen, that's a very interesting turn of phrase because we actually happen to have a cash on the program right now.
It's been a busy morning for people who can sound off on legal issues like this, but we are thrilled to be welcomed and joined by our own special pillowcase full of cash, Cash Patel.
unidentified
Let's go, baby.
benny johnson
you you you Cash, thank you for being on the program.
I didn't mean to, like, give you an introduction like that, but boy, it seems like Fannie carries all of her cash in a fanny pack.
Totally normal.
As a federal prosecutor, can you please do your best to, like, slice and dice this case like you were working at Benihana?
kash patel
Well, when I was a federal prosecutor and federal public defender, I carried my thousands of dollars in spare cash in my left shoe, and I carried the other thousand dollars in spare cash in my jockstrap.
I mean, what do these people think?
Who walks around with, even if you're not a government employee, who walks around with thousands of dollars in cash?
Let's get past that.
And I'm sorry to interrupt the news fest that is the continuation of this testimony.
But, you know, in all seriousness, as an officer of the court, your obligations to the cases you bring are without bias and without being a zealot.
And you're supposed to not conceal information to the judge.
That could impact the prosecution you're bringing.
That's not like a cashism.
That's the law.
If you are betting the top prosecutor in the case and you are making hundreds of thousands of dollars collaterally through that relationship and going on the love boat with his mother and your sisters, all of which they pay for through the taxpayers who are paying your salary and paying for this prosecution.
You not informing the judge is a violation of the canons of ethics and your duty as an officer of the court.
It's a felony.
If I had done anything like that, say Kash Patel was a special prosecutor prosecuting Joe Biden in the state of Delaware, and I hire a female attorney as my subordinate to run the prosecution, and then I pay her $600,000 and go on a fairytale cruise with her around America and the world.
What do you think the left-wing media would be doing to me?
And more importantly, what do you think the judicial system would be doing to me?
Now, I think this judge is on the right track having watched this testimony yesterday.
But what you saw from Fannie, Fannie, whatever Willis yesterday was like a Perry Mason style.
You almost don't get a witness like that when you're a defense attorney.
And you're like, is this really happening?
She just comes bulldozing into the courtroom.
And she's like, oh, I want to testify.
And I'm like.
Well, you know you're not supposed to be here yet.
She doesn't care about the rules.
She doesn't care about the rule of law.
And the most offensive thing to me, maybe as a brown man, is how this woman waltzes into court and blames the world for her corrupt criminal activities and plays the race card because she thinks that we are prosecuting her criminality because she's a black woman.
That is the most offensive thing I've ever heard.
As a minority who served in government for Democrats and Republicans, as a minority who's been a public defender and a prosecutor, when you play that race card, you degrade our ability to perform our jobs and execute the law.
You are no better than Al Sharpton when you say stupid, wildly offensive things like that.
And there are so many more reasons why she should be disbarred, removed from the case, and the case tossed.
I can't believe the judge.
Had the patience he did with her.
benny johnson
I've never seen anything like it.
There's so many follow-up questions here.
I mean, this clip alone, if you can see the screen, this clip alone, what does this tell the judge?
What does this tell the courtroom?
When you are manically and hysterically throwing papers around and screaming and yelling, again, like you're in total hysterics.
And right after this clip, the judge goes, you need a timeout, lady.
And he sent her to timeout.
kash patel
Not only does he send her to time out, he says, if you don't calm down, I'm going to strike your entire testimony.
The lady who said, no, Judge, I want to testify.
And the good thing about having this on TV is because unlike most federal court proceedings, this is a state one, we'd only get to read in a transcript what happened.
We're getting to see the tenor.
Of her character as the judge and the defense and the attorneys in this courtroom are while they're questioning her.
That goes to, in my opinion, the credibility of her testimony, or lack thereof, I should say.
She's holding up federal pleadings and saying, this is all a lie.
Excuse me, state pleadings and saying, this is all a lie.
What's a lie?
That you hired someone who now you refuse to call your subordinate?
That you hired someone and slept with someone during the prosecution of a case that was a political vendetta hack job?
And that you continue to bed the guy who said Black women's only job is to make me sandwiches?
And now you're complaining about the relationship you brought to your doorstep and saying somehow that the printed information in the pleadings are a lie?
What part of that is a lie?
You made money.
You lied to the world.
You brought a prosecution based on your political vengeance.
And now you're blaming people because you're a woman and you're Black.
It ain't going to fly.
benny johnson
Exclusive photo of Fannie Willis and some of her potential, this potentially may be some of her money laundering.
We don't know.
We're not sure.
This is something, we're verifying this right now.
We have great staff.
kash patel
It could be AI, but you never know.
benny johnson
We don't know.
Cash, my question to you is, why would they pull her testimony this morning?
I mean, we've obviously alluded to the fact that it was such a nightmare.
They don't want to put her back on the stand.
Are we correct?
kash patel
Well, listen.
Remember, rewind the tape to when she bulldozed into the courtroom.
The prosecutors that worked for her didn't want her to testify at all.
Now we know why.
And she basically went in there.
And if you watch the proceedings just before the testimony happened, she literally looked at the judge and goes, no, we're waving.
I'm testifying.
She just literally gave up the legal argument.
So the reason the prosecutors, they're not stupid.
Who don't want her in the courtroom is because she is a train wreck for this prosecution.
She has already derailed it.
Look, Benny, if by chance she stays on this case, this case is over.
And even if she had the magnanimity to remove herself, which she doesn't, she needs to be disbarred and this case has to be thrown out because no one can have faith in the conviction of the courtroom or a presumption of, excuse me, no one can have confidence in the courtroom proceedings.
Based on this conduct, she showed the world her intention, and she went on stage on the witness stand and lied.
Hang on.
Is someone going to look into that?
Also, what about the federally funded taxpayer dollars that went to the Fulton County DA's office, which has been utilized to prosecute Donald Trump?
Was some of that money paid to Mr. Wade?
Did some of that money go into their love boat cruises and other junkets?
Did it go to pay for their trips to D.C. and lavish dinners when they met with the White House counsel's office to prepare this indictment?
That is all a tax fraud conspiracy in the making.
Anyone looking at that?
I mean, I know the answer, but they would be if we were prosecuting Joe Biden.
benny johnson
Cash, obviously, the audience is a massive fan of you.
They know your work.
But for those of you who may not be familiar with Cash, I mean, he did work at the White House.
He did work for Donald Trump.
There is a really badass photo of him walking off Marine One with the bags.
So Cash knows about the White House.
So could you tell me, do the White House visitor logs lie?
Do they fabricate White House visitor logs?
Because Fannie Willis yesterday swore, under oath, she's never been in the White House.
Yet, lo and behold, we have her name on the White House visitor logs.
So, Cash, can you explain, like, how did that happen?
kash patel
I can't, unless she got in bed with Secret Service, colloquially, and somehow, you know, conned the visitor logs, got Secret Service to lie, put her name down when she wasn't there, and then just, you know, said whatever.
It's impossible.
The only thing that happens at the White House, at Joe Biden's White House is, with the visitor logs is, they...
Don't put down all the people that visit the White House, even though they're supposed to.
They omit that information.
So I don't know whether she was there with Willis or the other guy or not.
To me, it doesn't matter.
They coordinated their trips to Washington, D.C. to work with the Biden administration and his lawyers.
Our government-funded taxpayer-paid-for lawyers to prosecute Donald Trump.
They literally sat down with state prosecutors and talked about a pending indictment of their political opponent.
This, I mind you, with all the hypocrites blaring out there that Vladimir Putin in Russia jails his political opponents.
I'm not justifying his conduct, but why don't we look right here in America and look at how many political opponents have been indicted by this Biden administration?
benny johnson
Cash, we have so many topics to cover with you.
I know that you have a tight time frame, so I must ask the questions about the bombshell Russiagate reporting that has happened this week.
I know for a fact, you don't have to say it.
I know for a fact you already knew all of this.
I know that you've already known all of this.
And that all this information is bundled up inside of a binder, and maybe that's why the Mar-a-Lago raid went down.
And it's just spiraling out of control, that story.
Can you give me your thoughts on where that story is headed?
Because it does seem to be the largest political scandal of our lifetimes.
kash patel
Yeah, and if you give me a little bandwidth here to lay this out, look, I'm very happy that this is in the news, and I'm very happy that there's reporting on it.
But I want to remind the audience what the fake news media ignored for six years.
When Devin Nunes and I ran the Russiagate investigation, we put these findings in a 350-page report, which was publicized.
We put the findings out that Hillary Clinton was the preferred candidate of Vladimir Putin and the Russian...
Russian Federation.
Based on our investigation, we showed that John Brennan and company weaponized the system of intelligence to prosecute and target Trump surrogates.
We named them.
And now we're starting to see more information on those two lines of effort, which I think is fantastic.
But I also think we need to put down a marker and make sure we don't take the bait from the FBI that conjured up the Russiagate hoax to begin with.
The binder in question was the one that we compiled at the end of the Trump administration that President Trump declassified.
That binder...
Is sitting at the Department of Justice.
The bean counters and librarians at NARA have stated publicly that that binder is at the Department of Justice.
And that binder does contain a lot of information in the underlying documentations about Russiagate that Devin Nunes and I weren't able to get declassified because we ran into the buzzsaw that was Rod Rosenstein, Gina Haspel, and Chris Wray.
And why do I bring up Gina Haspel again?
I'll get there in a second.
The second big piece of this story is we, the Russiagate team, did a 2,000 man hour report and investigation into John Brennan's ICA.
The report that John Brennan was ordered by Obama to produce to justify the unlawful targeting of Trump's surrogates.
We did another report.
Think of it as the Nunes memo on the Steele dossier in the FBI.
There is another 17 page report.
Sitting in a skiff, in a safe at the CIA for the last four or five, however many years it is, that we produced.
Now, we in the Trump administration tried to get that declassified.
And the person that blocked its release then and to this day is Gina Haspel.
What is in that report shows the dereliction of duty and the politicization of John Brennan's ICA.
We've been trying to get it out forever.
And why is Gina Haspel at the epicenter of all of this?
She was London Station Chief in 2016.
What does that mean?
What does that matter?
In 2016, John Brennan was ordered and went out and took the Intelligence Committee and said, we are going to target Donald Trump's surrogates with the CIA, NSA, and our partners overseas.
So what does that mean?
Gina Haspel, as the London Station Chief, By law, has to authorize offensive operations in the United Kingdom because she's what we call the number one DNI rep, the number one Office of Director of National Intelligence Representative.
Those operations which we reported about from our Russiagate findings, the Halper thing, the barroom thing, all that nonsense, and much others, could not have occurred unless she authorized them.
She did that.
She would later become Trump's CIA director.
She would later become the individual that blocked the release of our ICA report on John Brennan's bogus ICA.
People need to start asking questions why that is and why Congress hasn't called her to testify.
And here's another doozy for you and your audience.
Do you know where Gina Haspel works today and has for the last three years?
At Chris Ray's law firm as the National Security Advisor, where Rod Rosenstein and Sally Yates are named law partners.
Rod Rosenstein, the same guy who signed the bogus FISA warrant against Donald Trump, which was rescinded as a result of our Russiagate investigation and nullified by the FISC.
These people are making tens of millions of dollars together.
Do you think these government gangsters are running in a coincidence circle?
No.
They have orchestrated this thing from jump, and they have orchestrated the cover-up.
And I'm very happy, and people need to make sure.
I'm not denigrating the work of Schellenberger and Taibbi and anyone else who has the gall to put this out there.
I just want to make sure that the mainstream media doesn't conflate what the efforts of these gentlemen are and put out the facts.
So that they don't come back later and say, oh, you guys conflated these two things and got the reporting wrong, so your entire article is garbage.
We need to stay above board on this stuff, and we need to not make assertions that we don't know are true in terms of what the FBI did and didn't do based on this reporting.
benny johnson
Cash, I have a single prayer, okay?
I believe in the power of prayer, Cash.
Please advise Donald Trump to not hire people like Rosenstein, Gina Haspel, and all the rest.
Term two.
Please, I beg you.
I know you have the President's ear day and night.
I beg of you.
Staff people with more like Cash, actually, and Rick Grinnell, and less like Gita Haspel.
kash patel
And maybe Benny Johnson.
benny johnson
I'll take it.
People will say, press secretary.
Come on, baby.
We'll do a whole press secretary responding to the press corps with memes.
I assure you, it will be the most watched press conference ever.
God bless you, Cash.
Thank you so much.
If you wish to fight the government gangsters that Cash is talking about and there's too much to unpack here, please let's get rebooked so that you can break all of this down.
We should do an entire show.
I really want you to put meat on the bone here so that we can understand this.
kash patel
I'll make it a deal.
You get your audience to buy Government Gangsters the book, I'll come back on and do an hour-long episode.
benny johnson
Here it is, ladies and gentlemen.
Here we go.
This is the Government Gangsters book at governmentgangsters.com.
Cash Patel, support.
The people who are fighting for you.
And Cash Patel obviously is one of the best out there.
They are sending their best.
They're sending Cash.
unidentified
Thank you, Cash.
Thank you.
benny johnson
you you you Ladies and gentlemen, we do have some breaking news here.
Taking a second to get up.
But apparently, Fannie's father...
Has taken the stand.
This is Big Fannie Sr.
On the stand.
unidentified
6-2 is admitted from the record.
Now, Mr. Here we go.
Your Honor, the state is going to supplement 6-2 with a redacted copy of the license.
The current copy is not redacted with the address and things of that.
Do we need to mark that differently in any way?
Perfect.
Now, you talked about when your driver's license was issued.
Can you tell the court when was that driver's license here, your Georgia driver's license issued?
It was on 9 /28 /2019.
Okay, so September 28, 2019.
Now, when you moved into District Attorney Willis' home, who lived there?
Well...
My daughter lived there.
I lived there.
And from time to time, my grandchildren would come.
Okay.
And the grandchildren, were they at school coming and going?
Exactly.
I think they were in school in various jurisdictions.
And during the time, how long did you live with Ms. Willison at her home here in Fulton County?
She was forced to move after she was elected about, I mean, I don't know if you want me to go through the whole thing, but Your Honor will indulge me.
After she was sworn in, she was sworn in on January 1 of 2021.
And on or about the 3rd of February, at probably 5, 5.30 a.m. in the morning, There were people outside her house cursing and yelling and calling her the B-word and the N-word and just, I mean, it was bizarre, okay?
I mean, it just...
It's awesome.
Mr. Arbani, here's the objection to you.
I would say it's an effect on the president while all of these things are occurring, but I can...
No, no, no, that's...
And you're saying he was personally present to hear these things?
Yes.
Okay.
Overall.
Okay.
And fortunately, the neighbors called the police and disbanded, you know, disbanded the group.
And, you know, it was just, I mean, it was just, I hadn't seen anything exactly like it before.
And after that happened, can you tell the court?
Did Ms. Willis have to move from her home?
Yes, she was forced to leave.
And can you tell the court, after she was forced to leave, shortly after she was sworn in, did you remain at her home in Fulton County?
Yes, I stayed there really until 2022, I guess.
And from what you described, did you fear for her safety?
Absolutely.
I mean...
Not only did I do that, I mean, the South Fulton police, they brought somebody, a man with a dog, because there have been so many death threats.
And they said they were going to blow up the house.
They were going to kill her.
They were going to kill me.
They were going to kill my grandchildren.
I mean, on and on and on.
It just became, and I was concerned for her safety.
And after those concerns came to your attention and after what you heard and saw, Of that day, you remained at the House?
Yes.
And can you tell the court, with what you just described, why did you remain living at the District Attorney's home here in Bolton County?
I believe it's relevant based on a lot of the questions that were asked yesterday of Ms. Willis about the security threat and the fact that it was implied that those threats were not necessarily Real in the sense that Mr. Boyd remained in the home.
There were many questions about the fact that he remained and her children could still come and go to the house.
I think it's relevant based to the testimony that was elicited from defense counsels yesterday.
Well, these South Fulton police, first they put a car in front of the house that was there permanently.
A police car.
That was thing one.
Thing two, they brought a person with a dog, sometimes more than once a day, twice a day, and they would circle the house to look for bombs.
I knew that that was a house that my daughter had worked for.
It was a brand-new house.
She's the only one who would ever live there.
It's a four-bedroom, brand-new house.
Somebody needed to protect the house, and I stayed there to basically take care of the house, to take care of the yard, to take care of that.
Also, somebody sprayed, again, the B-word and the N-word on the house, and I don't think my daughter even knew that.
I cleaned it off and called the police.
South Fulton police.
They have, I'm sure, all the records of all the things that happened.
And all of the neighbors, I notified all the neighbors to look out and to watch out.
And it was just, it was so crazy.
I mean, it was just so crazy.
We'd have people show up and park car.
There was a guy parked for probably eight hours out in front of the house.
You know, it was just, and we'd call the police and, you know.
Now, at the time that you lived there with Ms. Willis, and I guess even when you remained, so during the time period of 2019 to the end of 2020, are you aware if Ms. Willis was dating someone?
Yeah, she did.
She had a boyfriend when I first got there.
And did you meet her boyfriend?
Yeah, I met him often.
Okay, and did you know him by?
Any specific nickname?
Yeah, Deuce.
Can you tell the court why you were living there?
How often would you see him?
Sometimes every day, sometimes every other day.
He was a disc jockey or something, and he had all this paraphernalia that I'd have to move out.
It was a thing with the...
I mean, things that play music and so forth.
Now, when you moved in in 2019 and then throughout the years in your 2020, 2021, had you ever met someone named Nathan Wade?
I did not meet Nathan Wade until 2023, about a year ago when a reporter by the name of Isikoff interviewed me.
That was the first time I met him.
You said that was in 2023?
2023 right And I know you said you hadn't met him until 2023, but when you were living at Ms. Willis' house in Fulton County, did you ever meet Mr. Wade in the year 2019?
Absolutely not.
How about in the year 2020?
Absolutely not.
Have you ever seen Mr. Wade at Miss Willis' Fulton County House in the year 2021?
Never.
And is it your testimony that the only time or the first time that you met Mr. Wade was in 2023?
Let me say something.
Mr. Wade said that he remembers seeing me, and I do remember some banter.
I'm a member of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity, and there's kind of this thing that goes on between...
Mr. Wade is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha.
I do remember there was some kind of banter when my daughter was sworn in to be district attorney between me and a couple of guys.
And he said he remembers me.
I don't remember him.
And prior to that experience that you're talking about, as well as your official meeting in 2023, had you ever even heard his name?
No, never.
I don't think I have any further questions, Your Honor.
Ms. Merchant?
Yes, thank you.
Fine, how are you, Counsel?
Good, thank you.
Just got a couple questions.
On Monday, we heard you were in California.
Do you have a place in California?
Hmm.
Hmm.
People always ask me about where do I live.
I guess I live right here, sitting in this seat right now.
But yes, the answer is I have A place in Los Angeles.
Okay, you do.
All right.
Do you share time or split time between Los Angeles and Georgia?
Actually, I'm working on a documentary film, and I'm supposed to be being filmed, not...
For this trial, but I'm supposed to be being filmed right now.
It was planned and we had to stop it because they asked me to come here.
But the answer is I'm working on a documentary and I'll be in California until I finish the documentary if we don't have another actor strike and we don't have another writer strike.
So you own property in California?
No, I don't.
I live with a friend of mine.
You live with a friend of yours.
Okay.
And when did you first move?
Let me qualify with the dates.
Did you spend any time in 2019 in California?
No, and the reason I didn't is that when I first came here, the answer is no, I did not.
What happened was COVID.
Once COVID hit, I mean, I was just paralyzed.
I couldn't go anyplace.
Go anything.
I mean, I'm a theater buff.
I used to go to theater at least once a week.
But when COVID hit, I just couldn't.
I couldn't go to the dentist, which I need to do.
You know, I just, it was just a thing.
So I was just stuck.
I was just stuck there.
I may be wrong, but I believe COVID hit in 2020.
So I was asking about 2019.
In 2019, did you spend any time in California?
Before COVID was even here in the United States.
Remember I lived in South Africa and I've traveled the world.
I knew COVID was coming before.
I knew COVID was around before.
They may have announced it in '20, but in fact, I knew about it and I knew what was happening in '19.
Okay, so let's move through 2019 then.
You said you moved here in September.
What?
No, I didn't say that.
I moved here probably prior to September.
And September is when I got the driver's license.
I probably moved in the springtime.
I'm sorry, you didn't.
You said spring-summer.
I see that in my notes.
So spring-summer 2019 is when you moved here.
So up until spring-summer 2019, where did you live?
I lived in Johannesburg.
Well, I lived in Washington, D.C., 2018.
I had planned to retire for the rest of my life in South Africa.
I had worked for Nelson Mandela, Nefri Mandela, and someone I'd gone to law school, he had located there after Mandela was freed from prison and became president.
I was going to live there for the rest of my life, but unfortunately, because of political reasons, I could not stay in South Africa, and I was forced, in a sense, to come back to the United States.
So let's just focus in on the period from, let's see, let's just start with October 2019, okay?
We'll call that the relevant period.
October 2019 until the end of 2019.
Were you in Georgia every single day of that year?
Absolutely.
So now let's move to 2020, okay?
And every single day...
Before I move on, every single day in 2019, you slept at your daughter's house, correct?
kevin oleary
That's correct.
unidentified
So let's start in 2020, all right?
So 2020, the entire year, did you travel anywhere?
No.
You didn't travel at all that year?
No, no.
And I didn't go to the movies, which upset me also.
So that entire year, 2020, you remained here in Georgia?
Right.
In 2021, did you do any traveling?
No.
So when did you move back or when did you start this documentary film in Los Angeles?
What I had been doing to occupy my time was I was writing my own memoir.
As I delved into my family background, I discovered something and that's what got me to working on the documentary.
So I want you to understand what was going on in my life.
I pitched my, I have a movie script called Bad Blood.
I have a movie script trying to sell.
So I tried to sell.
I just happened to mention something that happened during the Civil Rights Movement.
SNCC, it's called the SNCC 5. The legendary Peter Fitzsimmons was interested.
And so with Peter Fitzsimmons and Leah Smith, we're now doing the documentary.
I don't want to interrupt you, but what I was asking was when you moved to Los Angeles, not what you moved there for.
Well, you keep saying moved.
I haven't moved to Los Angeles.
I spent more time in California, in Oakland, if you really want to just be, because Peter is basically San Francisco based.
So we're working on the documentary.
Okay.
I was in Los Angeles because I was going to the Pan-African Film Festival, and that's why we were there.
And the way Hollywood works is, you know, when you make connections and film festivals are a place to try to sell ideas and meet people and organize things.
You still own property in Washington, D.C., correct?
No, I don't.
You don't own property at 1467 Roxanna Road Northwest?
That's where I used to live.
That's where you used to live.
Right.
Did you own that property?
Yes.
Okay.
And you owned that property when you moved here in 2019?
Yes.
And you owned it in 2020, correct?
Well, now you talk about a very complicated issue.
I left the property.
There was a dispute between me and I had gotten a reverse mortgage company.
And there was a dispute between me and that.
And I just, I walked away from it.
Okay.
You walked away from it with almost $300,000?
Yeah.
What is the relevance to that?
Where he lived and registered to vote.
That's what they brought in.
So that's...
Why's the money he got?
It's the only proof I have that he owned that address.
So I can move on now.
Okay.
When did you sell that property?
I didn't.
The reverse mortgage company took it.
Oh, okay.
So in 2019, when you got your driver's license here, the next day you registered to vote, correct?
I think it may have been the same day, but maybe it was the next day.
I don't remember.
But you didn't own property here in Georgia that day?
No, I was living with my daughter.
You said that you met Mr. Wade.
But you remember you met in 2023, right?
Correct.
And I wasn't really clear.
You said something about meeting him.
Was it with Mr. Isikoff or did Mr. Isikoff tell you?
No, I was being interviewed by Mr. Isikoff.
And he walked in and I met him.
That was the first time.
He walked into the office.
Where were you being interviewed?
At the district attorney's office.
And Mr. Wade walked into that interview?
Yes.
So Ms. Willis had not told you about Mr. Wade prior to that?
Absolutely not.
So she didn't tell you anything about their relationship before you met him that day?
No.
But Mr. Wade remembers meeting you in 2020?
He said that at my daughter's swearing in.
I do remember that we're having some banner about fraternities, but other than that.
Oh, at your daughter's swearing in.
benny johnson
Okay.
unidentified
Right.
That's all I have.
Just one moment.
Uh-oh.
benny johnson
Oh, man.
That wasn't pretty.
Do you know who you are?
Do you know where you live?
unidentified
Morning, sir.
benny johnson
No!
unidentified
Good morning.
How are you, counsel?
I'm fine.
benny johnson
Make a documentary.
unidentified
I'll try to ask you some specific questions if we could, okay?
And I'll give specific answers if I can.
Perfect.
Okay.
The driver's license address I'm not going to publish.
That is state's exhibit number two.
Is the address on that driver's license the home that you're referring to as your daughter's in South Fulton?
Absolutely.
Okay.
It was unclear to me.
Maybe no one else.
It's unclear to me.
When did you stop living at what I would call your daughter's home in South Fulton?
Things got so bad.
And threats got so many, even against me, that the house became basically uninhabitable.
You know, I got tired of sleeping in one room one day and not one that.
I would say December of 2022, something like that.
December of 2022.
Right, that's about right, yeah.
Let me change and go back for another date.
You had indicated, and I didn't hear it.
When was your daughter, Ms. Willis, when was she sworn in as district attorney?
On January 1, 2021.
Okay.
And did you indicate that there was an incident, and I know you've described it, was that incident on February the 3rd, 2021?
That's my best recollection.
Okay.
So my question then is after February 3rd of 2021, how much longer did Ms. Willis stay at the house before she moved somewhere else?
Very short period of time and I cannot be precise, but I would bet all the money I ever Okay.
out best of your recollection end of February into the beginning of March give or take of 2021 when Miss Willis would have moved to a different location exactly okay And did Ms. Willis return to the house, that is, the house that you were in, at any point in time that you can remember?
From time to time, she and her security might show up for her to pick something up or take something or something, but she always would come with her security.
Okay.
My question was poorly worded.
I apologize.
Did she come back permanently to her house?
Oh, absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
So, as far as you're aware...
That once Ms. Willis left the house, her house, South Fulton House, so the record's clear, in either late February or into March of 2021, best of your recollection, she's not returned to that home to live in.
No, it became uninhabitable.
I mean, it just, you know, I mean, I would have to walk around that house looking out of every window.
I made a habit of having to walk around the whole house.
I got lights so that if somebody would come at night in the back, so that those kinds of reflecting lights, I had those put up.
All I was interested in is whether she had ever returned.
No.
The answer is no.
Okay.
Now, when Ms. Willis, when your daughter left the home...
Time period, end of February, beginning of March, give or take, 2021.
Do you know where she moved to?
No, and I didn't want to know.
I intentionally did not want to know because I was not, you know, if somebody stuck a gun to my head and I could tell them I wasn't going to tell them anyway, I'd have made up something, but I didn't want to know.
Okay, so would it be fair to say that if you didn't want to know, you never visited her at the place that she moved to?
Oh, I never did.
Never did.
Do you know how long she stayed at the first place that she went to after she left her house before she moved to a second place?
What I know, and this is hearsay counsel, is that my daughter has had to move something like four times.
Do you know any potential?
No, I don't know any place.
I was taken one time for Christmas Day.
I've only seen my daughter, and this is very hard for me to say, but...
During the period my daughter left, I've only seen my daughter 13 times because I can't, and we've never seen each other more than maybe three hours because of, you know, the nightmare threats against her and me.
And I understand that, and from the perspective of being a father myself, I understand what that means.
So I'm going to move away from that.
I was just trying to get an idea date-wise, okay?
So let me try to get one more date.
In 2023...
When you were being interviewed by one of the gentlemen that wrote the book at the DA's office, and Mr. Wade came in, can you give us, other than 2023, what the date would be?
I'm sorry, I can't count.
How about spring, summer, any idea?
I would guess spring or summer, but I can't.
I don't.
I'm sorry.
And you've already indicated, at least to your recollection, that was the first time that you'd met Mr. Wade.
Oh, absolutely.
Okay.
I'm not arguing with you about that.
I want to go to Ms. Willis' boyfriend that you referenced.
Okay.
You met Ms. Willis' boyfriend, as you've characterized it, when you came here in 2019.
Correct.
And you met him on one occasion, several occasions?
Oh, I know.
I saw him often.
Oh, so you mean there was no secret that she was dating this man?
Not from me.
Not from you.
And he was, again, he was a disc jockey of some kind.
I think he had a government job during the day.
I don't know what it was.
But apparently he would do weddings and so forth and so on.
He was a disc jockey, played music.
So all his stuff was always in the way, and I was always having to try to push it aside.
Anyway.
But, Ms. Wilson, your daughter didn't keep him from you, correct?
No.
No, I mean, there was no doubt he...
I mean, we lived in...
My daughter and I lived in the same house.
I mean, you know, he came and went, you know?
Right.
Now, when did you learn that your daughter had a romantic, personal relationship with Mr. Wade?
About seven weeks ago when it...
As a matter of fact, I...
I just found out when other folks found out.
That is, your daughter, as I understand it, never told you one time in the year of 2022 that she was dating Mr. Wade, correct?
That's correct.
And until recently, you didn't know from anyone, including your daughter, that she dated Mr. Wade, correct?
That's correct.
That is, whatever the relationship is between father and daughter, She kept that a secret from you, correct?
Correct.
That's all I need to know.
Mr. Stocken.
Good morning.
Mr. Stocken.
Good morning.
When your daughter moved or left the house that she owned, Did she say anything to you about having a large savings of cash?
Oh, no.
She...
Oh, no.
See, maybe...
Excuse me.
Your Honor, I'm not trying to be racist, okay?
But it's a black thing, okay?
You know, I was trained.
And most black folks, they hide cash or they keep cash.
And I was...
No, I train.
You always keep some cash because I've been places, and just because of the color of my skin, for example, I took a fellowship at Harvard when my daughter was just, if I might, Your Honor, when I was just, she was just, you know, maybe.
Three years old.
And I remember going to a restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
And I had an American Express credit card and maybe a Visa or whatever.
And I had a lot of what they call traveler's checks.
I don't even know if they still have traveler's checks, but traveler's checks.
And there was a sign that said, you know, with the credit card, for whatever reasons, the man...
Would not take my American Express credit card.
So I pulled out my Visa card.
And he wouldn't take my Visa card.
So then I pulled out my traveler's checks.
He said, we don't take checks.
Now, these were traveler's checks.
This was money.
I had a $10 bill.
I'll never forget this as long as I live.
And he said, the bill for my wife at the time, Fanny's mother.
Franny and myself was like $9.95, and I had a $10 bill.
I always remember that.
But even before that, I've always kept cash.
And I've told my daughter, you keep six months worth of cash always.
For example, I had three safes in my house.
I put some of my client's stuff there, too, things I didn't want.
Other lawyers to be I mean because you're always in a firm and I knew that there were special conditions so some of my clients things I would bring home put them in the safe but I've always kept safes and as a matter of fact I gave my daughter her first cash box and told her always keep some cash.
So is that a yes?
Yeah, absolutely.
That's all I got, Judge.
Mr. Durham.
No questions.
Mr. McDougald.
Thank you.
Mr. Rice.
No question, Your Honor.
Mr. Gillen.
It's still morning.
Good morning, sir.
Good morning, council.
How are you?
Just fine.
Just a few questions following up.
When you were talking about when you learned about Mr. Wade and your daughter, correct?
Correct.
Did your daughter tell you in around October of 2022 that she had gone on a Caribbean cruise with Mr. Wade to the Bahamas?
The answer is, I knew that my daughter had gone, but I did not know who she went with or what the circumstances were.
So I knew that she had gone out of town, but I didn't know with whom.
I see.
And did she tell you in November of 2022 that she had gone to Aruba and stayed at a Hyatt Regency resort there in Aruba for three days with Mr. Wade?
Did she tell you that?
The answer was, again, I knew she went out of town.
I didn't know where she went.
I knew she was going out of town.
She told me she was going out of town.
I think she might have said she was going out of the country or something.
She'd be gone.
But other than that, that was all.
Okay.
And did she tell you?
In March of 2023, that she was going to Belize for several days with Mr. Wade?
Same answer.
I knew she would tell me she was going out of town, and she may or may not have told me where she was going, but she'd be gone for a couple of days.
Okay.
Now, in 2023, in many days, you would be out in California, correct?
Some days I'd be in California, correct.
Okay.
Well, did she tell you in May of 2023 that she was traveling to Napa Valley with Mr. Wade, so maybe y 'all could see each other when she visited California with Mr. Wade?
The answer is no.
And so the first time that you ever met Mr. Wade or learned about Mr. Wade, to your recollection, was in 2023?
That's correct.
That's all I have, Your Honor.
Thank you.
Mr. Kucherov, on Zoom.
Just a couple quick questions.
Good morning, sir.
I know we can't see you.
I can't see you either.
Good morning, counsel.
We'll take a moment.
Let's just pause, see if we can change the screens to show Mr. Kucherov.
Your Honor, I'm on a phone, so it's kind of difficult.
Can you turn your screen on now?
trying to work Just to hold one more moment.
All right, there we go.
You can proceed, Mr. Kucherov.
Sir, you seem to know about the issue of cash in this transaction.
You said it was a black thing.
How did you know that the cash was going to be an issue in this testimony?
Because I was asked for it, and I was prepped by the lawyers, and they asked me about it.
Uh-oh.
What else?
And did you speak with Mr. Wade about your testimony?
No.
Did you speak with your daughter about your testimony?
Good morning.
She may have been present when the lawyers were.
I just, I really don't remember.
If Mr. Wade and your daughter were dating, you wouldn't have known that unless your daughter told you.
Maybe I'm not understanding your question, counsel.
So maybe you want to restate.
What is it that you're asking me?
Yeah, if it wasn't clear, I can re-ask the question.
I'll rephrase it.
If Mr. Wade and your daughter were dating, you wouldn't have known that unless your daughter told you.
I did not know that they were dating.
And what were you talking about the cash?
I didn't know that.
I don't know what you're asking me.
What I told my child.
From the time she was a child, is always have some money.
Always have some money.
If you go on a date so that people don't try to stick you and you want to leave whoever, always keep some cash, okay?
Mr. Floyd, you answered the question that the attorneys prepped you for that, so that's all I wanted to know.
That's it, Your Honor.
All right.
Mr. Cromwell.
No questions, Your Honor.
Mr. Rabadi.
Uh, Mitch Floyd, now, it wasn't common for your daughter to confide in you about her romantic life at all.
No, uh, and I didn't, I haven't confided in her about mine before when I had one, okay?
And you wouldn't have known about her boyfriend, the discharge.
Is that an objection?
Uh, I think that might have just been a still off mute.
Okay.
Let's keep going.
Now, uh...
You wouldn't have known about her boyfriend, the disc jockey, had you not been living with her, correct?
That's correct.
All out, overruled.
I have nothing further.
Did he answer the question?
He said that's correct.
All right, by show of hands, any redirect on those points only?
Ms. Murchin.
I just wanted to know when you were prepped by the lawyers, when this prep session was.
I just got off the plane on, what was it, Tuesday night?
I think I was probably drooling at the mouth.
I was so tired.
So it must have been...
I got in Wednesday.
It must have been Wednesday.
Okay.
And did you talk about any of the testimony from yesterday or watching news reports or anything like that?
Oh, absolutely.
You can't cut the TV on without seeing this.
The first thing, and I listened to conservative radio a lot, and, you know, last night for five hours, all they talked about was this case.
So you were aware of the testimony your daughter gave yesterday was?
Yeah, I mean, unless you don't cut the radio on, unless you don't cut the television on, unless you don't read the AJC or any other New York Times or whatever, which I do every day, of course.
So is it fair to say nobody instructed you that you were under the rule of sequestration?
Right, and I'm not under subpoena either.
Thank you.
All right, anything else?
Seeing and hearing none.
Thank you, Mr. Floyd.
Thank you very much, John.
Take care.
benny johnson
That was amazing!
unidentified
Miss Cross, let me check in.
Was the state planning to call additional witnesses?
Not at this time, Your Honor.
We're trying to accommodate if there's a license schedule to be able to this afternoon.
Right now, that was the last witness.
benny johnson
I think I was amazing.
Well, let's hear if they call more.
Let's just hear if they call more witnesses.
Let's just hear this back.
unidentified
One more will be available this afternoon, but that wouldn't be it.
Okay, so there are potentially more state's witnesses.
All right.
All right, so I think the rule is invoked and the instruction was for the parties to...
Tell all witnesses subpoenaed are expected to appear about the rule.
I don't think the remedy is necessarily striking.
I think it can go also to this credibility as well.
So to that extent, unless Ms. Cross, you want something else to be heard on that, point is made.
All right.
Do we have an update for Mr. Bradley?
Okay.
Then what I think we should do is have these preliminary conversations about privilege.
See if we can make any headway and then take our afternoon break.
So to add in, counselors, I don't know if you just want to argue in place there or go to the table, whatever makes you comfortable.
But Mr. Chopra, I think maybe it was relayed to you since you weren't in the court earlier this morning.
We've had some initial conversations about the distinction between the privilege and Rule 1.6.
benny johnson
All right.
So they're going to go, they're going to talk procedural steps and procedural court moves.
I am...
How do I say this?
I might be in love with Fannie Willis' family.
Fannie Willis' family may be the single most entertaining family in human history.
So that was her dad.
Her biological father was brought up on stage and in order to prove to the court that he is able to see the future, including predict...
He was able to see COVID in 2019, so he must have worked for Dr. Fauci, who was creating COVID at the time.
First thing he does is whip out an old magnifying glass.
Do we have the clip?
Do we have the magnifying glass clip?
So, that's fine.
unidentified
Do we have the clip?
benny johnson
Okay.
So this is the first thing he does.
Let's do a quick recap here.
This is the first thing he does.
If you've been following this, we've been live for three hours.
Fanny Willis' will not be called.
It's too much of a dumpster fire for her.
And so they're desperately trying to grab hold of any type of life preserver they possibly can.
So they bring in the guy who needs the magnifying glass to see the evidence.
unidentified
much Yes, I see it was issued on 9-28-2019.
Okay.
So before we get there, do you recognize Stacey Zipper 2?
Yes, it's just my driver's license.
And it's Stacey Zipper 2, a fair and accurate copy of your business.
I love this guy!
All the things.
This is the same.
Ah, let me tell you the game.
See, back in my day, we would only have our money in our big fannies.
We would never keep money anywhere other than under the mattress.
benny johnson
This is so entertaining.
It's inspired memes.
Okay, so the magnifying glass is now a meme.
Let's go.
unidentified
What is it?
Bitch, wait, get out of there!
Bitch, wait, get out of there!
benny johnson
That's what happened, actually, to all the evidence of Fanny's expenditures with Nathan's hot dog.
God.
unidentified
They're gone.
benny johnson
Don't you worry, ladies and gentlemen.
Fanny's father couldn't see that his criminal daughter was embezzling and shouldn't be banging the prosecutors, married men prosecutors, on her own tape.
unidentified
But anyway...
benny johnson
Fanny's fathers could see that COVID was coming, and I quote, Fanny Willis' father, I knew COVID was coming before.
I knew COVID was announced before.
They may have announced it in 20, but in fact, I knew about it, and I knew it was happening in 2019.
So, okay.
Great job.
He was in LA at the time, making a movie called Bad Blood, which this may be the movie.
Poster?
We don't know.
We're not sure.
I mean, we may be helping him with some good ideas.
The guy said he knew that COVID-19 was coming.
And so, ladies and gentlemen, here we go.
Again, must have been working in Wuhan for Dr. Fauci.
Fannie Willis' family, the most interesting man in the world.
This is the new Dos Equis guy.
The new most interesting man in the world.
unidentified
Do you spend any time in 2019 in California?
No, and the reason I didn't is that when I first came here, the answer is no, I did not.
What happened was COVID.
Once COVID hit, I mean, I was just paralyzed.
I couldn't go anyplace.
I couldn't.
Go anything.
I mean, I'm a theater buff.
I used to go to theater at least once a week.
But when COVID hit, I just couldn't.
I couldn't go to the dentist, which I need to do.
It was just a thing.
So I was just stuck.
I was just stuck there.
I may be wrong, but I believe COVID hit in 2020.
So I was asking about 2019.
In 2019, did you spend any time in California?
Before COVID was even here in the United States.
Remember, I lived in South Africa and I've traveled the world.
I knew COVID was coming before.
I knew COVID was around before.
They may have announced it in 20, but in fact, I knew about it and I knew what was happening in 19. Okay, so let's walk through 2019 then.
benny johnson
I knew COVID was coming!
unidentified
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha!
Ooh!
Sherlock!
benny johnson
Sherlock Holmes.
Ladies and gentlemen.
He knew it.
He could see it.
He had his magnifying glass and he was ready.
He could see the COVID molecules gathering.
He knew they were adding that spike protein to that coronavirus horseshoe bat molecule.
He knew it.
He could see it.
It's Mr. Holmes, ladies and gentlemen.
And, well, I gotta say that we, ourselves, can see the next disaster coming on the horizon.
It definitely won't be Fannie's testimony.
She won't be testifying.
That's very sad.
But if you do what we do, which is tune in to the World Economic Forum.
And tune in to what the globalists are planning to do to all of us and make our lives far worse.
The pandemic was actually very useful for these people.
They are always using something to get more control of our lives.
The World Economic Forum this year, they were talking about Disease X and how interesting Disease X will be for all of us.
What is Disease X?
We don't know.
But we do know that these people have nothing good planned for you.
It is why we are proud to partner with The Wellness Company.
The Wellness Company will make sure that you are prepared for whatever may come your way, whatever is being created in the next laboratory.
You may not be as smart as Fannie Willis' father.
You may not see it coming.
The Wellness Company and their doctors are medical professionals that you can trust.
Their medical emergency kits are the gold standard when it comes to keeping you strong, safe, and healthy.
Their kits contain an assortment of life-saving medications and a guidebook for how to use them.
Again, if you're not Fannie's father, you may not see Disease X coming around the corner.

He is a man that actually saw what was going on with COVID.
Along with Fannie's father.
Maybe it's him.
And Fanny's father.
We're not sure.
Okay.
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
We got the magic ball.
Okay.
Final thing.
Final clip.
Final clip, ladies and gentlemen.
Why did Fanny keep all of her money in cash?
That was the question.
And here is the answer.
unidentified
When your daughter moved or left the house that she owned, Did she say anything to you about having a large savings of cash?
Oh, no.
She...
Oh, no.
See, maybe...
Excuse me.
Your Honor, I'm not trying to be racist, okay?
But it's a black thing, okay?
You know, I was trained.
And most black folks, they hide cash or they keep cash.
And I was...
No, I train.
You always keep some cash.
benny johnson
No comment.
So, okay.
Got it.
Cash Patel was on the show earlier talking about the racializing of the courtroom.
And I guess we'll defer to Cash Patel, who commented about his time as a federal prosecutor and the...
Deep malignment of the judicial process when you try and bring in immutable qualities into that process, which of course has, I guess, been the very sloppy strategy of Fannie Willis.
But hey, there's a lot of sloppy things going on right now.
Tough case, tough case, ladies and gentlemen.
It's been rather tough, in fact, to cover.
We've been live for what feels like the last one.
Okay, that's pretty good.
The most interesting man in the world!
We've been live for the better part of the last 48 hours.
Am I wrong, Rolls Royce?
unidentified
No.
benny johnson
Yeah, we've been rockin' and rollin'.
We told you we would bring you this.
We were live for seven straight hours yesterday.
And then we did the In the Arena show with Tom Fitton.
So, crazy stuff.
We wanted to show you sort of the...
Mastermind behind all of the funny memes, clips, and content that you see on your screen and go right to the heart of exactly how we do all of this and also to thank you for your support for our program because simply by watching this program and by supporting us, you allow us to endeavor and to create a totally new generation.
of, like, young conservative creators.
Chiefly among them, my intrepid executive producer, the great ALX, who has 700,000 followers on X, Elon Musk renamed Twitter X in honor of ALX, who joins the show now.
unidentified
you.
you you ALX, I thought, Oh, fuzzy shot.
benny johnson
Okay.
Royce, get ALX a clean shot.
alex lorusso
One sec.
Let me refresh.
I'll be back.
benny johnson
Okay.
All right.
Hold on.
Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to do Ask Benny Anything with ALX.
We're going to talk about our Benny Brigade.
Just pop ALX back on when he has an actual crisp shot.
unidentified
There we go.
ALX.
benny johnson
Nice.
unidentified
Looking sharp.
Looking sharp.
benny johnson
Considering the last 48 hours, what has it been like to produce ALX?
alex lorusso
As you just saw, my screen is all fuzzy because I have dozens of tabs open at all times, monitoring the court, monitoring Fox News, monitoring social media, and my computer tends to get overwhelmed.
So making the judgment to go to, like, which, you know, witnesses or this morning when we were about to go live and we hear, oh, Fonny Willis, come on in.
And then they say, the state has no more questions for Ms. Willis.
And then everyone's like, well, what's happening?
alex alx lorusso
And then the judge was like, yeah, so we're going to be in recess until I hear from either party.
alex lorusso
And we're like, what is the judgment call here?
alex alx lorusso
To go live or what?
alex lorusso
So, you know, obviously we just covered all of yesterday, which was entertaining.
And then we got the nice little surprise with Fonny's father.
Who initially said wasn't going to be testifying today and then surprised everyone from left field.
Apparently, he was in the middle of filming a movie or something.
He's like, they asked me to come here.
alex alx lorusso
I was in the middle of filming my movie.
alex lorusso
So it has been quite interesting.
benny johnson
Will you go see Bad Blood?
Will you be one of the first guys to buy tickets for Bad Blood?
unidentified
I will.
alex lorusso
I was hearing so much about this guy, about how he's a Black Panther, and I was pleasantly surprised by how hilarious this guy is.
So I want to see what kind of movie he produces, if it involves magnifying glasses and murdering ants or whatever.
benny johnson
Do you think he's low-key based?
He's like, I like listening to conservative radio.
Do you think he's based?
alex lorusso
That really surprised me.
I don't know if it's, you know, one of those types of things where, say, like in Chicago, we're seeing all of those people who are going to disrupt the DNC convention and all of that.
I don't know if he's one of those types of guys or what's going on there with a daughter like Fonnie Willis who's prosecuting Donald Trump.
And he's like, yeah, I listen to conservative talk shows.
And it's like...
Okay, that's quite interesting as a Black Panther as well.
So I'm quite interested in his background now, and I have to maybe dig into that.
But yeah, he could be based, I guess.
unidentified
Who knows?

I might get destroyed for this, but I would love an invitation to the Fanny Willis Thanksgiving dinner, because that is going to be a wildly entertaining table.
Whatever it is, it's going to be wild.
This is clearly one of the...
This is clearly one of the most entertaining and unhinged families in all of America.
Although, I will say, the takeaway from all of this is that Fannie Willis...
Tell me if I'm reading the room wrong here.
Fannie Willis is clearly not prosecutorial timber, as Donald Trump would say.
She really did not have a great showing yesterday.
And none of this is salvaging anything for them, I think.
alex lorusso
No, and she is straight up admitting to potential campaign finance violations.
She's like, oh yeah, for example, I have cash on hand because when I ran for whatever she was running for, my campaign, I took some of that out in cash.
I'm like, can you say that again just the way you said it?
unidentified
Into my microphone right here.
alex lorusso
So she's doing that and then not even addressing the questions like I was saying in the chat.
There's something in her family where you ask a question and they go off on a completely different tangent.
alex alx lorusso
And he's like, yeah, and I'm really upset because I didn't get to go to the movies during COVID.
alex lorusso
And it's similar to her yesterday.
She's like, you know, my 50th birthday really stunk.
And she's like going off on these random personal tangents.
alex alx lorusso
Yeah, yeah.
alex lorusso
She's like, oh, by the way, I don't even like wine.
alex alx lorusso
I like Grey Goose.
benny johnson
It's like, okay.
alex lorusso
That's probably what they have at Thanksgiving dinner.
They just have, like, the Grey Goose bottle stacked.
benny johnson
So, the major takeaway here as it pertains to our audience and social media reactions, what's been the most viral clip, ALX?
alex lorusso
You know, today it's definitely been the magnifying glass one.
benny johnson
From Fannie or Nathan Wade, yeah.
alex lorusso
Yesterday, I think the most viral was probably Fannie talking about how when people borrow money, if it's a G, she always pays the G back.
That, and then obviously her throwing the papers and having the judge tell her to have a five-minute break, that was also the most viral.
I mean, and then with Nathan Wade, when they're talking about sexual intercourse, and he's like, all right, are you talking about intercourse?
alex alx lorusso
And he kept bringing it up.
alex lorusso
That went viral from him.
There's just so many good moments.
benny johnson
I'm not trying to emasculate a black man.
alex lorusso
Yeah.
benny johnson
Lady, we're not asking about that.
alex alx lorusso
No one was bringing that up.
alex lorusso
Thank you for the details.
benny johnson
Oh, man.
This has been wild.
I mean, at the very least.
Elon's razor applies.
Can you inform the audience of Elon's razor, please?
alex lorusso
Yes, the most interesting, I mean, the most entertaining outcome is the most likely.
But I will say, I was getting this idea last night, I'm saying the most entertaining outcome is for Fonny Willis to replace Kamala Harris on the presidential ticket.
Pick Fonny.
It's a much better running mate for Joe Biden there.
benny johnson
Oh no, look at this.
Oh no, ALX, this is breaking news.
I'm so sorry.
unidentified
Not this one, the other one.
benny johnson
Oh no, ALX!
alex alx lorusso
Wow, they really did me dirty.
They really did me dirty.
benny johnson
Oh, ALX.
It's an Italian thing.
It's an Italian thing.
You wouldn't understand.
unidentified
Yeah, I wouldn't understand.
Amazing.
benny johnson
All right.
So, ladies and gentlemen, the way that we can continue to do this and what actually drives us into broadcasting for the last, I don't know, almost 24 hours straight is you, your support of the show, the Benny Brigade.
We thank you.
If you wish to become a member of the Benny Brigade, please go to BennyJohnson.com and sign up today.
It helps keep our show independent.
Obviously, it's not just ALX.
It's an entire team of 20 people that are producing and creating and that are creators, that are fighting for a free and better America.
And so by supporting us, you support our independent journalism and our ability to do this, right?
ALX has worked with me at very tight-knit corporate media companies that are withering.
In their oversight of the stuff that we do.
And so we sort of have free form here and we are able to do shows like this.
It wouldn't be possible if we weren't completely independent.
And so we say thank you.
I think ALX can vouch for that.
alex lorusso
Yeah, 100%.
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, you also have to follow ALX.
I mean, if you're not doing that, you're missing out.
Obviously, he is the executive producer at the show, running an entire incredible team of producers across the company.
But he's the executive producer for a reason.
It's that no one's ever better at breaking news than ALX.
ALX at 670,000 subscribers on X. And we're going to get up to 700,000.
Maybe we'll do it today.
Everyone go and follow ALX.
Everyone go follow ALX on X. Right now, most important follow that you can make on the platform, I think.
This should go Elon Musk, ALX.
ALX, what's the future here, man?
What does it look like?
Give everyone the outlay.
It's Friday.
What are we looking at next week?
alex lorusso
I think that Fonny is going to be disqualified.
I don't know if they'll toss the case, but I mean, Fonny, I think, is going to be disqualified at this point.
You see corporate media talking about it.
MSNBC, that was their first reaction.
And then also, Her not taking the stand again, she was probably advised that the damage has been done on her side, and taking the stand could only be more detrimental to her case.
So I think that will happen.
And we'll see what ends up happening to the case, but I think it's pretty tainted at this point because of the media spectacle.
benny johnson
Yes, yes.
I have made enough taint jokes, actually, on this show.
I'd be happy with that, because we're running out of puns.
We are quite literally running out of puns.
Oh, good old Rolls-Royce over here.
Rolls-Royce over here laughing.
unidentified
It's funny!
alex lorusso
Fanny taints the case.
unidentified
There's too many jokes that have come out of this.
Too many.
benny johnson
We've got Rolls-Royce a microphone so that he can talk on the show.
And everyone talks about Rolls-Royce and ALX.
Let's just show everybody here.
unidentified
I'm the unseen person on the show.
benny johnson
And say thank you.
Also, I want everybody to wish Rolls-Royce a happy birthday.
It is Rolls-Royce's birthday.
It's his bar mitzvah.
He's 13 today.
And so, congratulations, young man.
unidentified
Thank you.
Okay.
Well, there you go.
Rolls-Royce is a real person.
benny johnson
And we're all probably happy.
To be done live streaming this.
At least for the moment.
Ladies and gentlemen, it has been wildly entertaining.
And it's been a lot of fun.
We just want to say thank you.
Obviously, your support and you're watching the channel.
We've hit records this week.
Another week of hitting massive records.
And it's all because of you.
We do the show because of you.
And...
We would never, ever leave the show without, obviously, leaving you with our verse of the day.
Got two good, solid young Christian men on screen right now.
We'll do our verse of the day, ladies and gentlemen, right now.
Isaiah 54. In righteousness you shall be established.
You shall be far from oppression.
You shall not fear.
And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
Let me try that again.
We've been on for a while.
You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear.
And you shall be far from terror, for it shall not come to you.
Missed a word there, ladies and gentlemen.
Make sure you get your scriptures correct.
Ladies and gentlemen, there's been a lot of people who haven't come correct over the last 48 hours.
But we have been out here for you.
We say thank you, all of us, at The Benny Show.
There's a bunch of people unseen here.
Jerry's obviously been ripping memes in the background.
Danny, Robbie, the whole team, we all say thank you to make the show possible.
Ultimately, the goal here is we want to create, one, happy warriors, because you can't defeat an army of happy warriors, and then two, we wish to march alongside you to victory.
And that is what we shall do.
It's your boy, Benny.
Along with our entire team here, have an excellent weekend.
unidentified
I think we have a couple questions for you, actually, that we were promised.
benny johnson
A couple questions?
unidentified
Yes, ask Benny questions.
benny johnson
Uh-oh.
unidentified
If you'd like to take those really quick.
benny johnson
All right, okay, we'll do one question.
Here we go.
What's the question?
Carol Walker Stone.
How long did you and Nurse Kate date before you were engaged?
Blessings.
Oh, okay.
My apologies.
The Benny Brigade questions are a new thing.
Royce jumping in and interrupting me.
Okay, we dated...
How long did we date before we were engaged?
Three years.
Three years.
We met.
I moved away from D.C. We got back together.
And...
Like, what's the right way to say this?
Like, I'm kind of glad that, frankly, we really, like, got to know each other before getting married.
It's like, I think, obviously, the most important decision you can ever make in your life, I advise, obviously, all young men that this is the most important thing.
Everyone's path is different, but this is the most important decision you can ever make with your entire life.
Christ says, you know, that the church is a bride for a reason.
Like, marriage is used as a metaphor for a reason in the scriptures because it is the most important decision.
It is the foundation of the rest of...
It should be the foundation of your life.
We've talked a lot about Fanny Willis and homewrecking, and that is considered evil for a reason.
Breaking up a marriage is a sin.
It is evil.
It is demonstrably wrong.
And much like...
Our relationship with Christ.
I couldn't imagine my life without my wife.
And so that is the cornerstone.
That is what we build upon.
That relationship.
And we march forward.
So that's how long Nurse Kate and I dated.
And I think that is a...
Am I good now, Royce?
unidentified
Sure.
Okay.
benny johnson
Thank you.
Just had to get a brigade question.
How to do it for the brigade.
We love the brigade.
We love all of you.
We say thank you and have a blessed weekend in this, the greatest country on earth.
Keep your foundations right.
Build your house not upon the sand.
Build your house on firm, solid foundations and the truth shall set you free.
Have a great weekend.
