BREAKING: New Prosecutor Drops Fulton County RICO Case Against Trump and His Co-Defendants

The long, arduous road of lawfare against President Donald Trump and his co-defendants in Fulton County, Ga., has come to an end. Prosecutor Peter Skandalakis, who took over the racketeering case that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis tried to pin on the president for supposedly attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 election, has dropped all of the charges.
...
Willis made a circus of trying to pin Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges on Trump and over a dozen other individuals in 2023 after nearly two years of investigation. The case took on a bizarre turn when Willis hired her lover, Nathan Wade, as a special counsel, despite his having no experience with RICO cases.
...
The Georgia Supreme Court eventually ruled that Willis couldn't continue prosecuting the case, which put the case in the hands of Skandalakis, who took the case on himself when no other prosecutor would touch it.
Legal expert Phil Holloway noted on X that Skandalakis made eligible Trump and his co-defendants for “record restriction,” which is basically an expungement of the arrest record.
My emphasis.

The first thing that I said to my wife when I read this story on the news yesterday evening was... I wonder how many millions this made-up, childish playground game of "I hate you" cost the taxpayers and how many real crimes slipped away or set idle while they went after Trump because he's Trump?
The sad thing is that the DemonRats don't care about the wasted money or the crime. The only thing that concerns them is that Trump escaped their ACME purchased trap once again.
