Georgia Supreme Court unanimously rejects Trump's request to shut down election probe

The Georgia Supreme Court on Monday dismissed a motion from attorneys for Donald Trump to shut down a probe into attempts to overturn the state's 2020 presidential election.

On Friday, Trump's attorneys filed petitions to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

The filings also asked the court to prevent Willis "from introducing any evidence obtained via the special purpose grand jury process to a regular grand jury."

But later on Monday, the court unanimously decided to reject the petitions.
