Former President Donald Trump has not been notified about whether charges will be filed against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for his alleged role in facilitating a 2016 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, sources told The Post.

Sources also told The Post that it is still possible that Bragg decides not to indict the 76-year-old former president.

Trump could be indicted as early as Wednesday, although he is not expected to appear in court until next week, law enforcement sources told The Post on Tuesday.

According to Fox News, the Manhattan grand jury hearing evidence against the former president has another witness slated to testify on Wednesday.

It is unclear who will be testifying on Wednesday.

If an indictment is brought against Trump, Bragg’s office would call Trump’s lawyers to inform them of the grand jury’s decision, and negotiations would immediately begin for the former president’s surrender.

It is believed that Bragg is considering slapping Trump with charges related to the falsifying of business records, or bookkeeping fraud, over the $130,000 in hush money allegedly paid to Daniels by Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen to cover up an alleged 2006 affair between the real estate mogul and the porn star.

Trump may also be hit with campaign finance related charges because of the alleged hush money payment.

The former president could face up to four years in prison if convicted of the reported “low-level felony’’ charges Bragg is believed to be considering bringing.

I'd be absolutely stunned if that was the case. If there's one thing that Rat Party Headquarters does well it's they keep their co-conspirators in line...if ya catch my drift.

[DarthVader]

You don’t know my side of the house. We can break anybody when we set our mind down to it. Only girly men fear the Democrats.

[Toespi]

Exactly. The most ridiculous thing yet, FOX just reported that Trump might be considered a “flight risk”.

[Gay State Conservative]

It's not about fear. It's about recognizing...acknowledging...the utter depravity that is today's Rat Party. In case you haven't noticed the Rat Party co-conspirators that wave “Rules For Radicals” like the Red Guards waved Mao's “Little Red Book” are now the “moderates” of the Party.

[DarthVader]

We see that but all that we see are a diseased appendage that must be amputated. Watch what happens to Braggy-Poo!

How about a wager: A dollar says that within 3 months the first prosecutor who charges DJT will get a multi million dollar book deal. Deal?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Trump has outed them thereby taking the wind out of their sales and creating significant blowback. Their ah ha! moment has passed.

[StAntKnee]

Hmmm. Did PDJT just play the DA?

[joesbucks]

And nowhere else. Other conservative news sites would be trumpeting such an appearance.

[JoJo354]

I agree with you because the left never gets help accountable for their illegal schemes and money laundering. Biden and party have laundered so much money and yet they are going after Trump for $130,000 to a porn star that the Dems produced in order to “stop Trump’s candidacy” and now they are using that same porn star that they got to tell the world that lie in order to stop Trump’s candidacy again!

"But the response I heard was 'Trump didn't leave NY to avoid prosecution, he left to become the President of the United States'".

Thanks for sharing that info. I hadn't heard about it. Leave it to liberals to twist every law so that it benefits them against their political enemies.

[DarthVader]

Townhall just reported it.

[DarthVader]

He is going to get destroyed. His Grand Jury was canceled today just as I predicted.

[joesbucks]

Not really n their web site yet. I’ll keep looking.

[joesbucks]

How is he gonna be in DC when he’s overseeing the grand jury tomorrow?

[DarthVader]

There is no grand jury tomorrow. It was supposed to be today. He has to be in DC tomorrow Thursday as state by House Admin Chair Bryan Steil. There was also a release of a letter (Exculpatory Evidence) which clears Trump. You guys are asleep around here.

[joesbucks]

Me thinks you are in error.

Got a time on that DC hearing today?

[DarthVader]

Looks like you are in error! This is done. I saw those other stories and knew that this was going to happen;

Release of Cohen attorney letter sinks his ship and he has to report to Congress today!

[joesbucks]

Bragg does not have time and is restricted at this point. He has to go to Congress tomorrow.

Report or appear? You said appear. What time? Why isn’t it on the news or C-SPAN?
