Nathan Wade was interviewed for over four hours by the House Judiciary Committee
Nathan Wade arrives at deposition with House Judiciary Committee
Former Fulton County special prosecutor Nathan Wade is on Capitol Hill for a closed-door deposition by the House Judiciary Committee.
Former Fulton County special prosecutor Nathan Wade met with Biden administration staff on at least two occasions during District Attorney Fani Willis' probe into former President Donald Trump, a newly released transcript suggests.
Wade was interviewed by House Judiciary Committee staff last week as part of Chairman Jim Jordan's probe into the prosecutions of the former president.
A grand jury indicted Trump and allies last year on charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
Wade did not disclose the details of his supposed meetings with White House representatives, including if they were in-person or remote, but he acknowledged the existence of invoices and other records that indicated discussions occurred.

At one point, the transcript shows Wade was asked about an invoice line indicating "travel to Athens; conf with White House counsel, May 23rd, 2022."
"So if it says conf with White House counsel, that would mean there was a conf with White House counsel?" investigators asked, according to the transcript.
Wade responded that the semicolon written after "travel to Athens" represented a separate thought.
The investigator asked, "So if you billed for a conf with White House counsel, would that have occurred?"
Wade challenged, "If I billed for a conf with White House counsel, this document doesn’t say that that cong with White House counsel happened in Athens. That’s not what that says."
Pressed again on whether the reference to White House counsel meant he billed for a conference with such an official, Wade said, "Yes."
Wade later said he did not recall details of the meeting denoted by a record reading, "Interview with D.C./White House, November 18th, 2022. Eight hours at $250. Cost $2,000," according to the transcript.
Details he did not recall included participants in the meeting, any possible travel, or who was involved in scheduling it.
But when asked, "And if you billed for it, if you billed 8 hours for interview with D.C./White House, it's safe to assume that you would have taken part in the interview?," Wade replied, "Yes ma’am."
