Nathan Wade “made the decisions to hire or fire” staff in Fulton County District Attorney’s Office following Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis’ election victory in November 2020, a number of sources conversant in the Wade and Willis relationship solely informed Breitbart News.
The revelation of Wade’s beforehand unreported place as the previous personnel decision-maker for the District Attorney’s Office raises moral and battle of curiosity considerations. It additionally raises questions about whether or not Wade and Willis have been forthright concerning the timeline of their affair.
“Wade is a prosecutor on the Trump case and he selected the office employees,” a supply informed Breitbart News.
Wade led a transition group of ten to 12 individuals who interviewed and evaluated present staff to stay in Willis’ newly gained workplace simply weeks after she gained the election in November, stated the sources, who wished to stay nameless for worry of retribution attributable to their direct information of the surroundings contained in the District Attorney’s Office, which they characterised as “corrupt.”
Wade, a second supply informed Breitbart News, was answerable for figuring out who of the 250 workplace staff would stay with Willis. Sources described one-on-one interviews behind closed doorways with Willis and Wade, who was “too invested to be just a friend” of Willis to carry such a strong place.
Wade and Willis declare their relationship began in 2022 after Willis launched the probe into former President Donald Trump.

“Willis said everyone in the office was essentially all terminated, and that essentially we had to reapply for our jobs and must submit an application and schedule a time to appear for an interview,” a supply stated. “We had to reapply and came back in so they could interview everyone — from lawyers to paralegals to assistants to investigators.”
“And in that room, in my interview, there were a lot of people other than Fani Willis. And that was her transition team. I definitely know that Nathan Wade was in that room because he was taking the lead role,” the supply acknowledged. “And I was a little confused because I had never seen him before.”
“I had about maybe ten people in the interview,” one other supply described the reinterview course of with Wade. “Nathan definitely was up moving around and taking charge in the room. Wade hired the entire office of 250 employees,” the individual stated. “I was just telling him my employment background, and they just sit there and looked at me and they said well, ‘you’ll get an email on our decision.’ And that’s what Wade said. And he looked at Willis. They looked at each other. And there was just something so weird going on.”
The sources didn’t initially know who Wade was through the transition course of, however they informed Breitbart News they questioned why Willis would outsource the transition course of to unknown actors. “Why was he a part of the hiring process and making the decisions as to who gets hired and fired when he wasn’t even an employee or authorized to be in the room,” a supply questioned.
After the reinterview course of, Wade and Willis “started eliminating anybody that was too close and in control” of the workplace operations, the second supply stated. Willis, sources asserted, violated the Friends and Family Policy by “hiring friends and family” and hiding it from the county with fungible state and county {dollars}.
“All the people that worked on her campaign became the inner circle,” one supply conversant in the interior workings of the workplace stated.

If the presiding decide determines Willis engaged in an precise battle of curiosity together with her lover and fellow prosecutor, Willis may very well be faraway from the case, handing former President Donald Trump an enormous victory.
Wade claimed his relationship with Willis started in 2022, one yr after Willis opened the case towards Trump in 2021.
Wade’s story seems shaky. Former Fulton County District Attorney worker and buddy of Willis since school, Robin Yeartie, testified that Willis was positively in a relationship with Wade since 2019. In addition, cellphone knowledge obtained from AT&T by subpoena contradicts Wade’s testimony.
“[Our] relationship wasn’t a secret. It was just private,” Wade testified to the weird distinction that apparently didn’t embody disclosing the connection to Fulton County.
