President Trump just notched a legal win that may shed some light on the bizarre decision made by the judge in the Big Fani dismissal case. In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia. It appears as if McAfee wanted to wash his hands clean and defer to a higher court, almost as if he was encouraging Trump’s team to seek an appeal and give Big Fani the bum rush right out the door.
Donald Trump won a legal victory in the Georgia election fraud case against him Wednesday, when a judge granted him the right to appeal his ruling allowing District Attorney Fani Willis to stay on the case.
Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee granted the former president’s motion seeking an immediate review by Georgia’s Court of Appeals of his bombshell ruling on Friday allowing the embattled DA to continue prosecuting the case, despite her affair with lead prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Trump and seven other co-defendants seeking to boot Willis did not have an automatic right to appeal before the start of a trial.
However, McAfee granted the rare measure, citing the importance of the case — which has potentially huge implications for the expected Republican presidential nominee.
Trump lawyer Steve Sadow called McAfee’s Wednesday decision “highly significant” and added he’s hopeful the appeal will win.
“The defense is optimistic that appellate review will lead to the case being dismissed and the DA being disqualified,” he added.
Attorney and Town Hall contributor Phil Holloway had this to say about the ruling:
Judge grants “certificate of immediate review” in the #FaniWillis disqualification motion
This means the Court of Appeals has to also approve, but it’s likely to be allowed
The issue is too important

Here’s a closeup of the image:
Phil took to Fox News to unpack the bombshell ruling, highlighting that all aspects related to this case are now in a holding pattern.
I spoke with @SandraSmithFox on @FaulknerFocus as news broke that Judge McAfee approved the pretrial appeal of his #FaniWillis disqualification order
The GA Court Of Appeals is also expected to approve the pretrial appeal
The whole case is on hold while this issue is resolved

David Shafer, one of the Fulton County defendants, took to X to share the good news:

The journey continues to the Georgia Court of Appeals, opening the door for President Trump and his seven co-defendants to challenge and potentially oust corrupt Fani Willis from the case. Here’s hoping Big Fani is sent packing like a kicked dog in the disgrace she deserves.
