DOJ Files A Motion To DISQUALIFY Judge After She Was Caught Having An Affair In Her Chambers!

Added: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]So, we recently did a video on a judge who was caught doing some adult activities in her office. Not only that, but she was actually doing it with the current police chief in the Atlanta Police Department. Now, we found out and was verified later on that we actually knew and correctly accurately reported on who the judge and who the police officer or the police chief was, and now we're getting some major updates and the facts are all coming together.

[00:00:27]Everything is tying in because we're going to see an update here from the Department of Justice and from the Assistant Attorney General that ties into all the election stuff we've been talking about here in Georgia. Now, if you're wondering what's going on, we're going to get into it in a second and surprisingly, this goes a lot deeper than I thought it did. Pun obviously intended. But, Amy reported on this over on X. If you guys don't follow Amy on X, make sure you do that at I Amy Lee on X.

[00:00:52]And she says this, "We have breaking news. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon has filed a motion to disqualify the US District Judge Eleanor Ross from a high-profile Georgia election integrity case." When we first reported on this, I was not aware and did not realize this was the judge who was actually involved in this case and we're going to find out and get into the motion and see her involvement in this case as well. The more the the Excuse me, the move comes after reports linked to Ross to the who is an Obama appointee a recent judicial misconduct investigation involving, you know, adult situations in her chambers during business hours and making false statements to investigators. Given the serious nature of the scandal, the Department of Justice is pushing for her immediate recusal. All right, and we're actually going to get into the details here. Amy breaks it down in another post over on X and says this, "The Department of Justice just moved to disqualify the federal judge in the Georgia election case amid chambers scandal." We'll read the motion and the memorandum in support of that motion here in a second. But, what's the summary? The conclusion between a massive judicial misconduct scandal and federal and federal voting litigation just triggered a legal earthquake in Georgia. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, a head of the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division, has filed a formal motion to disqualify the US District Judge Eleanor Ross from the high-stakes election integrity case. If you guys remember, this is the case where there was so much pushback from Fulton County because the Department of Justice wanted to look into and find out what was going on with the people who were working the polls during the 2020 election. We even had instances that we just found out recently that they are starting to interview some of the people who were involved in the 2020 election. That's going to play into here what we're talking about here. The push for immediate recusal follows a stunning 11th Circuit investigation into Judge Ross, who is an Obama appointee, which sustained highly damaging findings regarding her conduct. Obviously, we know what happened in her chambers. She engaged in sexual relationship with a local law enforcement officer inside her judicial chambers during standard business hours at times within earshot of her staff. And it's also being alleged and reported that the staff has recordings and videos of what went down.

[00:03:13]They said this officer, the the chief in Atlanta, was actually going in and out of her office during lunch hours, and that's when he would frequent visiting her. This is crazy. A lack of candor, obviously, making false statements to the federal investigation during the Judicial Review Panel's inquiry. And of course, improperly attending a partisan political event while serving as a federal judge on the federal bench. We know now this judge was also connected to Fani Willis.

[00:03:40]So, under the federal law, 28 USC 455, a judge must step down from any proceeding where their impartiality might reasonably be questioned. I think in this case, we can see that that's true.

[00:03:52]By leading the charge, Dylan is arguing that a judge with a documented history of misleading federal investigators and breaking ethical boundaries cannot maintain the strict appearance of neutrality required to preside over a sensitive battleground election case.

[00:04:08]Now, this isn't just about judicial ethics, Amy says. It's a critical chess move in a broader legal war. Dylan Silver Right Division has launched a sweeping campaign targeting state voting rolls, filing lawsuits against nearly 30 states to force them to hand over comprehensive voter data, including the interviews that they're doing here in Fulton County of people who were working the polls.

[00:04:30]With Georgia sitting at the absolute epicenter of the election integrity fight, securing a neutral bench is a top priority for the Department of Justice.

[00:04:39]Let's go ahead and get into the documents. So, first, we're actually going to read and go through this motion to disqualify. It's pretty straightforward. Obviously, we have the United States of America versus y'all's favorite guy, Brad Raffensperger. All right, can we get some booze for him in the chat? Motion to disqualify. On January 23rd, 2026, the United States filed a lawsuit against the Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, bringing a claim under the Civil Rights Act of 1960. If you guys don't know who Brad Raffensperger is, if you're not in Georgia and haven't heard that name, remember when this entire election interference case went down and Fani Willis came out and charged the president United States with an interfering with the election. Well, one of the main reasons he was charged in that case was because the president called Brad Raffensperger and said, "Hey, what was going on with the voting during the 2020 election? Seems like we're missing votes. I don't know what y'all got going on down there, but you need to find these votes." And that was kind of, in some ways, the linchpin that caused and started this entire election interference case. So, that's a little bit of background who Brad Raffensperger is. Now, the United States requested an order directing the secretary to produce an unredacted copy of Georgia's statewide voter registration list. On December 9th of 2025, the Judicial Council of the 11th Circuit adopted an amended final report regarding misconduct by an unidentified subject judge.

[00:06:03]Order judicial complaint number and they have the number there. The Committee on the Judicial Conduct and Disability of the Judicial Conference of the United States later affirmed the 11th Circuit's order.

[00:06:14]Then, the week of May 25th, various news outlets identified Judge Ross as the subject judge. And we have to give a shout-out to Marco Polo. They have not gotten enough credit for the research they did and the investigating they did into this case because they were the absolute first ones to break this story and identify not only the judge, but the officer and the chief here in Atlanta as well. All right. So, there's a memorandum in support of the motion, which we're going to talk about here in a second. If true, Judge Ross's conduct creates the appearance of impropriety in this case. And guys, there's a whole lot of testimony from the people who worked in that office as well.

[00:06:51]For the reasons laid out in the accompanying memorandum in support of motion to disqualify, recusal is necessary to avoid the appearance of impropriety in this case. Seems pretty straightforward. And that's signed by, of course, Harmeet Dhillon, the Assistant Attorney General of the United States. So, let's go ahead and get into this actual memorandum in support. And we're going to read the background and actually see what is going on behind the scenes and why Harmeet believes this is the right decision to make. We've got the United States versus Brad Raffensperger. What happened? The United States respectfully requests that Judge Eleanor Ross recuse herself from the above captioned matter. The 11th Circuit's Judicial Council found that a subject judge, quote unquote, committed judicial misconduct by attending a partisan and political event. The event of Fannie Willis. We guys we showed you guys in another video. Ashley Merchant actually was able to find a photo of this judge, Eleanor Ross, at Fani Willis's political event. And that's the event they're referring to there.

[00:07:54]That event reportedly honored Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, as they say, who rose to nationwide fame for her failed prosecution of the President of the United States for his alleged crimes related to the 2020 election. Public reporting has identified the subject as judge The subject judge as judge Ross.

[00:08:15]This reported misconduct necessitates that judge Ross's recusal because if judge Ross is indeed the subject judge, it creates the appearance of bias. Now, the reason this is coming out again is because they she was privately reprimanded. And that was something that was found out by Marco Polo as well. So, she was privately reprimanded and then they were going to let her go about her business. The people said, "No, we're not doing that." A judge who attended the party celebrating the election of the Democrat best known for prosecuting a Republican president president for the alleged election interference cannot then preside over a case concerning that president's efforts to ensure election integrity. Obviously, there's a conflict of interest there.

[00:08:57]Here's the background and this is where it starts to get interesting. The lawsuit concerns Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger's refusal to provide the United States with election records in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1960. According to the complaint, the Attorney General requested that Secretary Raffensperger produce information necessary to ascertain Georgia's compliance with federal law.

[00:09:22]Specifically, the Attorney General requested that Secretary Raffensperger provide a copy of Georgia's statewide voter registration list containing all fields required under Section 303 of the Help America Vote Act. Also, they wanted the names, emails, addresses, phone numbers of the people who were involved in the election at that time as well.

[00:09:42]However, Secretary Raffensperger declined to produce a full unredacted list citing Georgia law, and they said the law is not apply here.

[00:09:51]The United States filed a complaint on January 23rd, and the case was assigned to, guess who? Judge Ross. [laughter] What a mess. Several organizations and individuals have intervened as defendants. Secretary Raffensperger and the the defendants moved to dismiss. The United States opposed the motion, and a hearing was scheduled is scheduled for June 3rd. On December 10th of last year, the Judicial Council of the 11th Circuit adopted an amended final report regarding the misconduct by an identified subject judge, Judge Ross, as we now know.

[00:10:27]All right. Then what happened? The final report concluded that the subject judge was engaged in judicial misconduct by attending a partisan political event.

[00:10:36]Specifically, the subject judge went on went to the event hosted by District Attorney's campaign.

[00:10:42]The final report at 16.

[00:10:44]Upon arriving at the event, the judge had to pass through a lobby area adorned with campaign signs. The event was sponsored by a District Attorney's campaign or donors to that campaign, and its overarching purpose was to promote the District Attorney's political campaign.

[00:11:01]The subject judge conceded that the District Attorney's event could reasonably be considered a political function. Obviously, Nathan Wade was even there. We saw the picture. After the event, someone sent the judge a photograph in which the judge can be seen holding a martini glass in which an appetizer was served. The next day, the judge showed the photograph to some of the judge's staff members. Uh-oh. Three former clerks recalled the subject judge, Judge Ross, saying that the judge had consumed martinis at a victory party for District Attorney Fani Willis.

[00:11:33]All right, immediately after you preside over a criminal hearing, you told an intern that you had too many martinis the night before at Oh man, what may have been a political event for a district attorney.

[00:11:46]The final report concluded that the subject judge's attendance at the event violated Canon 5 of the code of conduct of the United States judges, which states that a judge should refrain from political activity. Pretty straightforward, right? The subject judge Judge Ross attended at the attendance at the political event where someone photographed the judge had the potential to erode public confidence in the independent and non-partisan nature of the judiciary. And again, Amy said this in her post. This is absolutely a chess move by the Department of Justice to try and get more leeway and get more moving on their case. This is brilliant.

[00:12:23]The final report added that it appears to be a mere matter of good fortune that the subject judge's attendance did not garner media attention. The final report also found other instances of misconduct, namely improper sexual activity in chambers with a law enforcement officer.

[00:12:40]Boy, the apple don't fall far from the tree. Like, can we I don't want to have this conversation right now, so I'll let y'all have the conversation in the comments and then I'll respond to a lot of you. What is going on with these ladies? What is happening? We see what happened with Fani Willis. She had her improper relationship with Nathan Wade and that potentially ruined is the reason this case against the President of the United States was ruined because he had the quote appearance of impropriety, right?

[00:13:08]Now you have another judge, another female judge, another female in this position who is messing with an Atlanta Police Department Chief. Again, shame on him as well.

[00:13:20]And this is happening again where this case could potentially go in the favor of the Department of Justice because >> [laughter] >> they just can't keep it in their pants.

[00:13:29]I don't know, do you say that term for women? I don't know. Anyway, this is crazy. But she was she was a part of improper certain activity in the chambers with the law enforcement officer and a lack of candor during the investigation of the judicial complaint.

[00:13:43]Obviously, we know we've seen the evidence that she lied multiple times and then she eventually said, "All right, I lied. Sorry, you guys caught me." The 11th Circuit issued a private reprimand which we talked about to the subject judge order at one.

[00:13:57]In addition, the subject judge has agreed to issue one a letters of apology to six former law clerks interviewed by investigation counsel allegedly people that she threatened to say, "Don't y'all talk about this."

[00:14:09]Forgo service as chief judge should be subject should the subject judge be otherwise eligible eligible to serve in this capacity and I indefinitely refrain from service on any judicial conference committee. They're trying to ruin this woman's career. Career. And I mean, hey.

[00:14:27]Again, it it's possible. We don't know what's going to happen to the police chief in this case, but I'm sure there's going to be consequences there as well.

[00:14:34]The Committee on Judicial Conduct and Disability a disability of the Judicial Conference of the United States later affirmed the 11th Circuit's order and this is why it's coming to light now.

[00:14:45]All right, also the week of May 25th, various news outlets identified Judge Ross as the subject judge and they have examples there.

[00:14:53]All right, and they also have a link to an article where this was brought up.

[00:14:57]Bloomberg Law got the credit again. I it's unfortunate, but shout out to Marco Polo. They were the ones who first reported on this and who first broke the news about the judge. All right, so give them their credit.

[00:15:10]Although the 11th Circuit and Judge Ross have neither confirmed nor denied this reporting, there's a strong evidence that the reporting is accurate. It is.

[00:15:19]The final report indicates that the subject judge attended the district attorney's political event on the judge's summer interns first day.

[00:15:28]Florida does not have district have district attorneys. They are called state attorneys. So, we are down to Alabama and Georgia.

[00:15:36]And again, we saw the picture of the party she was at. In 2024, the Alabama primary was on March 4th and the primary runoff was on April 16th. Those dates don't match with uh don't match with when a summer intern would start. In Georgia, the primary was on May 21st. The date matches up well with the start of the summer internship.

[00:15:57]So, they're trying to narrow down the dates here and figure out which parties she could have been at. Josh Blackman, who is the district judge who was privately reprimanded for having loud intercourse in the chambers with the law enforcement officer from her district and is based on and based on the final report's discussion of the layout of the subject judge's chambers, at least one legal expert has concluded that it is likely that the subject judge is stationed in Atlanta. Jeez.

[00:16:25]Further, there was a very high-profile district attorney race in Atlanta that was settled on May 21st of 2024. Fani Willis won the Democratic primary for the Fulton County District Attorney, served as a senior assistant district attorney in the Fulton County, Georgia, as we know, and then that would have given her a chance to work with Fani Willis, which is true.

[00:16:46]Who was an assistant district attorney at the time? The final report also indicates that the day after the political event, the subject judge provided over criminal revocation proceedings. In the final report, Judge Ross presided over a criminal revocation proceeding on May 22nd. So, she was in town, is what they're saying. As the district attorney of Fulton County, Fani Willis indicted then former President Trump alleging violations of racketeering, the Georgia Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations. We know Fani loves RICO, and she was disqualified because of her relationship with Nathan Wade, which is absolutely ironic. And they get into their argument here. We know what the argument is, guys. The argument is this judge messed up. She did something inappropriate, and she's friends with Fani Willis, who was trying to lock up the president of the United States and many others when it comes to the election interference. The judge is gone. She's not going to be able to stay on this case, and it'll be interesting to see how this plays out, not only for her career, but for the career of the the chief who was involved in this case as well. Let me know what you guys think about this in the comments in the chat. Shocking stuff.
