BREAKING: Jim Jordan Subpoenas Fani Willis After Misuse of Federal Funds

In a development from the House Judiciary Committee last week, a subpoena was laid down by Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, a notable figure from Ohio. The subject of the subpoena was none other than Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. It appears that questions surrounding Willis' conduct have been arising, particularly in the aftermath of allegations tracing back to a whistleblower's revelation. The accusation from this whistleblower suggests misuse of federal funds by Willis' office and an abrupt termination of the whistleblower post-disclosure. The DC Enquirer had previously carried a report about a whistleblower, Amanda Timpson, who supposedly had a confrontation with Willis over the targeted use of a sizable federal grant worth $488,000. This discourse between Timpson and Willis occurred on the 19th day of November in 2021. Willis allegedly used the funds for more luxurious items contrary to its intended application after Timpson's demotion; this raises quite a few eyebrows. As per Timpson's narrative, she attempted to make Willis' campaign aide, Michael Cuffee, aware of the limitations surrounding the use of the grant. These designated funds were strictly meant for certain resources and decidedly not meant for more extravagant items such as Macbook computers and similar wares. Interestingly, the stipulated use of the $488,000 federal grant was straightforward, it was assigned to the development of a youth-focused project, specifically a Center for Youth Empowerment and Gang Prevention.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Cole Welch-Caffrey, Thursday, February 2, 2023, on The Empty Chair LIVE podcast on both MVPASAP Facebook & The Empty Chair podcast on YouTube as she discusses Gang Prevention and Awareness with former Latin King, Jesus Ruiz. Jesus' story is one of VICTORY and one you do not want to miss. Hear how he turned his mess into a "Message" that has helped many individuals leave the streets and turn their lives around. Jesus was once a gang leader and now he is a leader in our community. He started a non-profit organization "Leaving the Streets Ministry" which offers Hope, Compassion, and Second Chances. Driven by faith in God and community, Leaving the Streets Ministries' core belief is that substance abuse use disorders, homelessness, poverty, gang involvement, and previous incarceration should not dictate the future of any young person who is struggling to find his or her place in society.

Kevin O’Neill‘s fascinating book Secure the Soul: Christian Piety and Gang Prevention in Guatemala (University of California Press, 2015) traces the efforts of multi-million dollar programs aimed at state security through gang prevention in Guatemala. O’Neill is most interested in the ways that Christianity and ideas about piety, salvation, redemption, and transformation guide and shape a variety of programs in prisons, rehabilitation centers, and, perhaps surprisingly, reality television and call centers. This is a finely hewn multi-sited ethnography as well as a moving account of the life of a single former gang member. At its core is a tension between the critique of programs that range from the absurd to the tragic, and a recognition that without those programs, former gang members in Guatemala would be relegated to the barest of bare lives.
