TL;DR

Donald Trump alleges that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis had an "improper" relationship with a special prosecutor involved in the Georgia election interference case, citing court filings from one of the 18 people indicted alongside him. The filings accuse Willis of hiring the man she was in a relationship with as a special prosecutor without required approval, and allege that they had an "improper, clandestine personal relationship" and took vacations together. Trump has pleaded not guilty to 13 felony counts and has asked a Georgia judge to throw out Willis' case against him, arguing that he is protected by presidential immunity. Willis' office has been contacted for comment, and legal experts have questioned the lack of evidence backing up the claims.
