Trump was indicted Thursday Night
45th President Donald J. Trump was indicted by a Manhattan Grand Jury Thursday evening. President Trump is expected to be arraigned in the Manhattan Courtroom at 2:15 pm eastern time on Tuesday. Tuesday’s arraignment will be the first time a president, past or present, has been arrested in American history. Trump took to TruthSocial on Friday to express his concerns that the judge overseeing his arraignment will not give him fair due process.
“The Judge “assigned” to my Witch Hunt Case, a ‘Case’ that has NEVER BEEN CHARGED BEFORE, HATES ME. His name is Juan Manuel Marchan, was hand picked by Bragg & the Prosecutors, & is the same person who ‘railroaded’ my 75 year old former CFO, Allen Weisselberg, to take a ‘plea’ deal (Plead GUILTY, even if you are not, 90 DAYS, fight us in Court, 10 years (life!) in jail. He strong armed Allen, which a judge is not allowed to do, & treated my companies, which didn’t ‘plead,’ VICIOUSLY. APPEALING!”
On Friday, Trump also criticized Alvin Bragg’s coworker.
“Matthew Collangelo left the DOJ in Washington, D.C., to work with Bragg at the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office to ‘GET TRUMP.’ Also, don’t forget Clinton Lawyer Mark Pomerantz, who left private practice to become a D.A. Prosecutor of President Donald J. Trump, only to leave during the investigative process to sell a book, and tainting the entire case, heretofore unheard of ‘stuff.’ It’s not supposed to work that way. ELECTION INTERFERENCE, KANGAROO COURT!”
Since the indictment was announced, Trump has expressed concern that he will not receive a fair trial in New York. Trump expressed his concerns in a Thursday night post on TruthSocial “They only brought this Fake, Corrupt, and Disgraceful Charge against me because I stand with the American People, and they know that I cannot get a fair trial in New York,” he wrote.
President Trump recently praised National File’s “very good reporting” on a story that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg only received 10% of the vote when he was elected in 2021.
Can Trump squeeze in a campaign stop or two before arraignment? Surprised he doesn’t have one already set for this weekend.
Don’t show
What is that ?
Reparations, NYC-style.
Yawn. This is what happens in every Third World country from Panama, to Ecuador and Pakistan. I won the election so I am going to throw my political opponents in jail. For what? I don’t know I’ll think of something.
A ZOOM rally... would probably draw zillions!!!!!!!!!! lol
He wants that mugshot photo for all of his social media profile pics and fundraising emails.
Yes, I'm dead serious.
Alvin Bragg just handed Trump the 2024 GOP nomination.
Yep. The Left opened this Pandora's Box, turning us into Eastern Europe and Latin America.
I sure hope there's a conservative prosecutor in Delaware somewhere licking his chops because the precedent has been established.
These fools will soon find themselves on the wrong side of President Trump and will never recover!
Now that the precedent has been set, it puts every living ex-prez, with the exception of Carter, liable to be indicted for some trumped up charge. Well, maybe all but Clinton. The Clintons have that magical ability to escape serious charges for anything. And now Biden is a potential target for having his rear end reamed, which would be a definite popcorn event.
F-ck optics. It’ll be great optics when they put him in leg irons on cnn too.
A war has been declared. He is not obliged to let this domestic Taliban tell him what to do.
Please don’t think I’m mad at anybody here, but my skull is about to explode.
It’s bipartisan. It’s human nature. Times and names may change but human nature never does. That’s why our founding fathers were geniuses and divinely inspired. They saw this coming.
J Edgar Hoover used the FBI to go after Martin Luther King. The same way the authoritarian district attorneys Are going after Donald Trump. It even goes back to the time of Napoleon with Alexander dumb ass and his novel the Count of Monte Cristo. Throw your political opponent in the château DEF
Go Trump!
Pandora’s box. Like when they tried to prosecute Bill Clinton for getting action from an intern. If you were married to Hillary, I can’t blame him. But JFK had Marilyn Monroe. I thought Bill could do better than that.
LOL...
They better hope Trump isn’t reelected.
100%
They are going to try to hold Trump in MDC Brooklyn, a Federal facility.
