Breaking news here. From the article:
…
A Manhattan grand jury has voted to indict former President Donald Trump for his role in hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels, The New York Times reported on Thursday, citing “four people with knowledge of the matter.”
The Times called it a “historic development that will shake up the 2024 presidential race and forever mark him as the nation’s first former president to face criminal charges.”
From the NYT:
Pretty historic news.
…
ABC News has learned that former president Donald Trump has been indicted, according to multiple sources with knowledge.
Trump is indicted on “Trumped up” charge but the Biden Crime family isn’t even noticed.
The left is truly evil. That prosecutor is scum of the earth. He should be disbarred for this.
Political prosecutions, the hallmark of dictatorship.
Maybe thats because a DA has not been given any evidence of wrongdoing by Biden. By all means feel free to bring a case instead of whining.
So what happens next? From the article…
…
As with any high-profile court case, a potential criminal prosecution of Mr Trump will be slow and marked with constant battles. Expect Mr Trump to fight the indictment every step of the way, with motions to dismiss, allegations of impropriety aimed at Mr Bragg and perhaps even the judge, and a knock-down-drag-out fight over allegations that have been public knowledge for a half decade. He may even fight extradition to New York with an appeal to Florida’s state authorities, though that would likely not be successful. Mr Trump’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, has previously indicated the former president will cooperate if he is charged. “There won’t be a standoff at Mar-a-Lago with Secret Service and the Manhattan DA’s office,” he said.
Mr Trump will eventually be arraigned, which is likely to take place in-person in Manhattan. That will be the first of potentially many hearings where Mr Trump will actually have to show up at the courthouse, prompting a media spectacle each and every time he appears. Each appearance will be dissected endlessly by cable news networks and picked apart for some clue about the former president’s mood or confidence in beating the charges.
You got the tater! I mean, as soon as they can figure out what to charge him with, right?
The charges will be presented formally in the next few days. I assume they will be for falsifying business records and campaign finance violations.
Trumps lawyer Cohen was sentenced for three years for tax evasion and campaign-finance violations in connection with Stormy Daniels.
Look, I know it’s tough from all the sweating and panting, but it’s in your linked article.
The precise charges are not yet known
Yea that’s what I just said.
Cut Trump Supporters some slack today, they are not sure how to function just yet after this news.
idealess corrupt dems finally get their great white whale
how pathetic
No one cares.
Naw, we react just like we do with everything else the left does that’s sleazy and evil. Disgust and understanding.
Historic?
Who needs a crime?
Jail the opposition. Smear them.
History does. This is unprecedented for a US president to be indicted for any crime. Nixon was the closest and Ford pardoned him.
Well it’s good to see things are done in a bipartisan manner as to not raise suspicion and bias.
Justice for what?
