Trump Indicted in New York, a First for a US Ex-president
Thursday, 30 March 2023 05:35 PM EDT
Donald Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury after a probe into hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels, becoming the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges even as he makes another run for the White House, the New York Times reported on Thursday.
The charges, arising from an investigation led by Democratic Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, could reshape the 2024 presidential race. Trump previously said he would continue campaigning for the Republican Party's nomination if charged with a crime.

We are living through the darkest chapter of American history.
The Radical Left – the enemy of the hard-working men and women of this country – have INDICTED me in a disgusting witch hunt.
Alvin Bragg, the Soros-funded District Attorney behind the indictment, relied on the testimony of a convicted felon and a disbarred lawyer.
Never before in our Nation’s history has this been done.
The Democrats have cheated countless times over the decades, but weaponizing our justice system to punish a political opponent who just so happens to be a President of the United States, has never happened before. Ever.
From the time I came down the golden escalator at Trump Tower and even before I was sworn in as your President of the United States, the Radical Left Democrats have been engaged in a witch hunt to destroy our movement.
Ever since I ran for president as a complete political outsider, the corrupt ruling class has tried to shut down our America First movement.
The Deep State will use anything at their disposal to shut down the one political movement that puts YOU first.
But I promise you this: This Witch Hunt will BACKFIRE MASSIVELY on Joe Biden.
With your support, we will write the next great chapter of American history – and 2024 will forever go down as the year we saved our Republic.
WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
I hope Alvin Bragg has paid up his life insurance policy.
I doubt any company would provide a new policy to him. What idiots these leftists are. This guarantees a Trump candidacy IMO and maybe this time we will get an honest count (fat chance of that).
Didn't Clinton pay off a bunch of women? By posting this question I understand I will now go on another list. It definitely won't be the first one.
The next step Bragg will attempt to confiscate ALL Trump Real Estate holdings in NYC.
Including Trump Tower.
Pelosi: Like 'Everyone,' Trump Can 'Prove Innocence'
One of the basic rights Americans have under the standards of law is to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in the courts, but Rep. Nancy Pelosi has turned that around, saying that former President Donald Trump, like "everyone," has the right to prove himself innocent.
If anyone still doubts that this government has completely and totally thrown out the US Constitution and the American system of truth and justice under our laws and that Constitution then this is it - right here.
Under our system of laws and the Constitution the burdon of 'PROOF' is NOT up to the defendant, Donald Trump, like everyone else must be presumed INNOCENT until proven guilty.
The burdon of 'PROOF' is up to the prosecutors, - NOT the accused.
But that's not all, That 'burdon of proof' must be presented in a totally NON-biased court of law, without any pre-defined presumption of guilt.
This government, including the New York prosecutor's office, has turned our Constitution up-side-down. They have completely and totally thrown out every aspect of our justice system and our system of Constitutional law.
This is The United States of America; NOT some banana republic from the Republic of Congo or Uganda. This is NOT Russia or China.
It is NOT up to President Donald J. Trump to 'prove' his innocence. And it is NOT up to Donald J. Trump to save America from this corruption. It is up to We-The-People of The United States of America.
