"Drillable Hours:" Some Thoughts on the Sweetick/Fani Gangbang of Lies
Update: The Judge Scolds Fani, Tells Her to Answer the Questions Posed With Fewer Histrionics Or He'll Strike Her Testimony
One thing I'm thinking with the hearing is this:
They are trotting out a lot of claims with no evidence -- "Fani paid me back for all of these trips,
but only in cash, and no, I have no deposit slips for when I deposited this cash into my account, you'll just have to take my word for it as a He-Wore selling his man-pussy" -- and Fani's claim that
of course she keeps thousands of dollars in cash in her apartment to pay for trips "because my daddy told me a woman should always have six months of cash lying around."
She is using this lie to explain why there are no bank records showing her withdrawing money to repay Sweetdick.
He has no records of ever depositing the cash; she has no records of every withdrawing it.
Because Her Pappy told her to always have $30,000 in cash (or whatever the figure is) on hand, squirreled away in a hidey-hole in her dirty Fuck Shack.
Sweetdick was asked to provide bank records so he could prove his claims. He refused. He's offering his lies as a defense, and when someone asks him to prove it, he says "No thanks."
Similarly, he refuses to release his lawyer from privilege so he can say what he observed as far as the start of the affair. Sweetdick says it began in 2022; his lawyer... says he will not answer due to client-lawyer privilege. When Ashleigh Merchant asks him if he will release his lawyer from privilege to answer this one question, he says "No thanks."
This is how criminals at a criminal trial behave --
but these are public officials and officers of the court at a disqualification hearing. And they're lying and evading like common fucking streetrat hoods.
So they can claim these things, offering bizarre family lore about a woman needing to have six months salary on hand in cash to explain away the lack of bank withdrawals, but... does anyone believe them?
What I'm thinking is that they are preparing for their
perjury trial. These lies are are defense for perjury charges. You can't prove they're lies, so they might get by with reasonable doubt.
But these obvious self-serving lies are
NOT fit to fight a disqualification hearing. In a criminal trial you can just lie and say "Now you prove I'm lying, and if you can't, that's reasonable doubt."
But that's not the standard in
this hearing. This hearing does not require these things be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, just by preponderance (majority) of the evidence.
And so we have one witness, Fani's friend, who says she knew about the relationship dating from 2019; we have Sweetdick's lawyer, Lone Ball McQuaid, saying he absolutely refuses to answer about when he observed the beginning of the relationship.
We have financial records proving Sweetdick paid for all of Fani's flights (except for one very inexpensive flight from Atlanta to Miama, which costs about the same as Big Gulp), and only Sweetdick's and Fani's evidence-free claim that she paid him back.
In cash.
Do you have deposit slips for when you deposited that cash into your account? No I don't.
Do you have withdrawal slips proving you took that money out to repay him? No I don't. My Pappy told me that a Stronk Empowered Woman should always stuff her fucking pillow with six months' worth of rent and expenses in cash, so I just took the payment out of my fucking Money Pillow.
Is the judge really going to buy this unbelievable bullshit?
These are
public officials. They're supposed to be
forthcoming with the truth, not hiding it, not invoking privilege and refusing to turn over records.
Not daring the White Judge to say these two Strong Empowered Liars of Color are lying.
Instead, they're acting like skeevey hoodrats who do a lot of cash transactions in paper bags.
And when you ask them what they're doing with $20,000 in a paper bag, they go, "What money?"

...Judge issued a caution to Willis that he will strike her testimony if she continues to fail to answer specific questions...
Another Update: Why are there zero bank records of her withdrawing cash from the bank?
Because, silly, she'd just take out an extra $50 from Publix when she went shopping:
she's claiming she replenished $4K from *one* vacation not with bank withdrawals but getting the extra $50 out from the checkout at Publix. Ooookay.

The dandy also points out that she's supposed to report any gifts she's received -- AND any reimbursements of those gifts.
She reported neither. Now she says she just reimbursed gifts without having ever reported them, and there are no records of this, so you'll just have to take her word as a Liberal Democrat for it, and she didn't know she was supposed to report these things, and how can you question a Strong Independent Black Woman like this after what they did to George Floyd?!?!

Fani Willis is lying. Her denials are far too specific. Asked whether Wade visited her at a place she was living, she says he never visited her at South Fulton. The judge has to caution her to answer the questions, or he'll have to strike her testimony. She's discrediting herself
Also, lawyers are digging into the question: Why did you not inform your staff that you were involved in a romantic relationship with someone you hired a contractor, as the rules require?
She says "I didn't know about that rule."
What-ever.

...Willis was just asked if she was aware that she is required to disclose any personal relationships with those under contract...
...She said that she was unaware of that requirement.
This gets at their general credibility -- they generally lie and refuse to acknowledge the affair, so why would anyone expect them to tell the truth in this hearing?
Below: Fani Willis melts down, refusing to provide any records that can prove her shoddy raft of lies.
Here she describes her
Gangster Accounting Philosophy.
All of these lies are being told to explain why there are
no records whatsoever, no ATM withdrawals, NOTHING to prove what Fani is claiming about paying Sweetdick back in cash.
She even coached her own father into lying for her. This cock-and-bull story about having a basement full of cash and gold coins because it's important for all women to live life like they're Scrooge McFuckingDuck.
Here, Fani Willis melts down and refuses to answer whether Sweetdick ever
visited her at her home. Apparently that is now a top secret matter as well.
MSNBC
throws in the towel.
Or do they? Fani Willis claims she didn't even use a cash app to pay Sweetdick -- a cash app would provide a record of the withdrawal, and of course, she's used nothing but cash, nothing that leaves a record.
And that's just what "elderly black people" do, apparently. Although Fani Willis isn't elderly but whatever, let's just go with it, it's a black thing, you wouldn't understand.
By the way, here's Sweetdick offering the Bill Clinton answer: I had no sexual relations with another woman during my marriage,
because in my mind, my marriage was already over when I laid that ass.
Over at Hot Air, Beege Wellborn asks if it will ever
be permissible to demand that a Strong Independent Black Woman of Color abide by the same rules and laws the rest of us are bound by, and to demand such Stronk WOC show accountability for her transgressions?
The answer is "No."
