District Attorney Fani Willis found herself being spanked yet again Thursday by Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee in her pursuit of former President Donald Trump.

The judge dismissed two criminal counts in the Georgia 2020 election interference case against Trump, ruling Willis had no authority to bring the charges, Fox News reported. One other count against allies of the former president was also dismissed.

In a separate decision, McAfee upheld the racketeering charge brought against all the defendants, according to the network.

“President Trump and his legal team in Georgia have prevailed once again. The trial court has decided that counts 15 and 27 in the indictment must be quashed/dismissed,” Trump lead attorney Steve Sadow said in a statement shared on X.

Trump and 18 associates were indicted by a Fulton County grand jury in August 2023 for election fraud, racketeering, and other charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. According to the indictment, the defendants “refused to accept that Trump lost, and they knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump.”

McAfee dismissed six of the charges against Trump earlier this year, saying Willis failed to allege sufficient detail, according to Fox News. The case was also paused while the Georgia Court of Appeals considered whether to disqualify Willis, which came after it was revealed that she allegedly had an “improper affair” with Nathan Wade, a prosecutor she hired to help bring the case against Trump.

The Appeals court will hear Trump’s argument to have Willis disqualified on Dec. 5, which comes a full month after the 2024 presidential election.

ABC News contributor Chris Timmons, a former Georgia prosecutor declared that the ruling is “not a significant victory” for Trump, but begrudgingly acknowledged it’s “definitely a win for the defense.”

His reasoning is that the overall RICO charge remains in place, which doesn’t require criminal charges.

“The actions in federal court can and likely will be brought in at trial as ‘acts in furtherance of the RICO conspiracy’ which don’t need to be crimes,” Timmons said.

The liberal meltdown on social media fell back on the hope that the remaining charges might stick — one Kool-Aid drinker even accused Trump of “paying off” the judge.
