Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis admitted to being in a romantic relationship with a special prosecutor she hired, leading to allegations of conflict of interest in prosecuting the case against Trump and 18 others. Meanwhile, a federal election interference trial involving Trump has been taken off the court's calendar pending resolution of Trump's presidential immunity claim, and a court monitor found operational errors in the Trump Organization.
