NYC battens down the hatches and NYPD prepares to mobilize 700 'disorder control' riot cops ahead of ex-president's possible arrest - as MAGA supporters descend on Trump Tower

The Big Apple is ready to batten down the hatches and mobilize 700 riot cops ahead of former President Donald Trump's anticipated arrest early this week.

State, city and federal law enforcement agencies have been meeting in recent weeks to discuss how to deal with expected widespread protests following Trump's arrest, as his supporters have already started descending on Trump Tower.

The New York Police Department is even considering stationing hundreds of riot cops, the Daily Beast reports, fearing that Trump's arrest may cause both MAGA conservatives and anti-Trump protesters to face off outside Manhattan Criminal Court as he is arraigned.

Trump is set to face criminal charges for $130,000 payments his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, paid to porn star Stormy Daniels towards the end of his 2016 campaign. Prosecutors say the payment violated campaign finance laws, and was made to silence Daniels about an affair she had with the mogul.

Several MAGA fans have now descended on Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in a brazen attempt to prevent his arrest.

The FBI is heading the security response to this, along with the Southern District of New York US Attorneys office.

“Riot cops”? Are these cops who are paid to riot while wearing MAGA hats and pretending to be Trump supporters?

Not one American flag in the whole crowd. just trump flags. They hate americans and only have loyalty to one orange loser. Pathetic.


from the comment section. Now they notice flags. But I can’t imagine flags not there.

Folks,

this is fake news with an agenda. There is always an essence of truth, but look for the lies and manipulation.

Also there’s a strong likelihood that the Southern District of New York’s US Attorney office will issue a UFAP warrant as soon as charges hit. It allows the Feds to hold Trump until his State trial.

What would you suggest?

America First/Pres Trump supporters never leave their homes?

🙃

We’re open to your suggestions, sparky.

Brazen attempt to prevent his arrest???

What the heck are they doing? Putting our claymore mines?? Putting in barbed wire or laying mine fields, or putting in booby traps??? Well, since the left are a mob of boobs, this may apply. Well, all the left has to do is pick some young fool of the Antifa crowd and tell him to go out around Trump's home and stomp around the grass area and see if he can find any land mines!! If he does blow his legs off, then they know there are mines out there.

Why? They’ll be in the crowd, trying to cause the riot that the swamp so desperately wants.

Oh yeah. They will definitely have a bunch out there all dealt out in MAGA hats and shirts, doing everything they can to make the MAGA people look bad. May even be a bunch of the Antifa mob and NYPD working together, arresting MAGA look-a-likes who are fighting them. The Look-A-Likes will wear some arm band that IDs them as ones to “fight” with, hurt a bunch of pretend cops, taking them off in meat wagons to a gym somewhere they have the beer and nachos laid out.

Why would any NYPD cops even consider showing up? Or have they been carefully selected based on social media and politics to respond as did the San Jose, CA, gestapo

Is the NY DA going to arrest whoever the SS agents on duty for the Tuesday as well?
What about the SS agents scheduled when the arraignment hearing is?
Going to be a tough shift for those guys.

I'm trying to imagine the chaos and gridlock if these were scattered by the thousands all over Manhattan/NYC. That would be terrible.

No Conservative should ever set foot in Manhattan again.

Excellent advice. Note: that should include truck drivers delivering food and retail goods. It’s time for some siege warfare.

Pro-BLM protests good. Pro-American protests bad.


Even the Wuhan virus knew that! Remember?
