Popular Post onthedarkside Posted March 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2023 Local, state and federal law enforcement and security agencies are preparing for the possibility that former President Donald Trump will be indicted as early as next week, according to five senior officials familiar with the preparations. Law enforcement agencies are conducting preliminary security assessments, the officials said, and are discussing potential security plans in and around the Manhattan Criminal Court, at 100 Centre Street, in case Trump is charged in connection with an alleged hush money payment to Stormy Daniels and travels to New York to face any charges. The officials stress that the interagency conversations and planning are precautionary in nature because no charges have been filed. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/law-enforcement-agencies-are-prepping-possible-trump-indictment-early-rcna75493 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sweet Swede Posted March 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2023 He should have been jailed 2 years ago. USA is a country where most white and rich and powerful people can do almost anything without risk of jail time or other consequences of any significance. Disgusting.

Watch your head Sir. The offer to voluntarily surrender is a deliberate play to avoid being handcuffed and to avoid the ‘Perp Walk’. Trump will then claim he wasn’t arrested. Here’s a thing though. assuming an indictment is issued and assuming Trump voluntarily surrenders. The next step is booking and arraignment. That is an arrest. He’ll stand in front of the booking officer, he’ll be read his rights. His personal details will be recorded. He’ll be fingerprinted and mug shots will be taken. He’ll then be arraigned before a court, the formal charges against him will be read and recorded. He’ll apply for bail. Assuming he’s not charged with any violent crimes, he’ll be granted bail with conditions. Surrender passports, bail bond and house arrest are the most likely outcomes. A trial date will be set. He’ll be processed just like every other person indicted for crimes. Though with one difference. He’ll make a circus of it, and his supporters will bay at the moon. Expect the press to go to court to have the mug shots released. Don’t expect FOX or NewsMax to petition for the mug shots to be released or publish them when they are.

He is almost certain to indict Trump. Well it appears he didn't move forward with a case last year................... On February 23, 2022, Carey R. Dunne and Mark F. Pomerantz, the lead prosecutors in the New York County District Attorney's investigation into Donald Trump and his businesses, resigned abruptly after Bragg "indicated to them that he had doubts about moving forward with a case against Mr. Trump".[15] In his letter of resignation, Pomerantz wrote that the "team that has been investigating Mr. Trump harbors no doubt about whether he committed crimes,[16] including falsifying business records, and that it was “a grave failure of justice”[16] not to pursue criminal charges https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvin_Bragg It appears his bias that you are insinuating is non existent. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is almost certain to indict Trump. Actually, if you had followed reports on this you would know that Bragg's original team quit because he didn't want to go ahead and prosecute Trump. He's been very reluctant. Two prosecutors leading Manhattan criminal probe into Trump RESIGN after new DA Alvin Bragg raised 'serious doubts' about case: Probe grinds to halt with NO witnesses questioned for a month Two prosecutors leading the Manhattan District Attorney's criminal tax fraud investigation into Donald Trump and his family business have abruptly resigned, it was reported on Wednesday.

bendejo Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 IMO Insurrection 2.0 will involve firearms and other ordnance. I would question how the individuals in the various police forces and National Guard will handle this. I could also see people like Bannon and Flynn and others taking to live media encouraging the violence and being arrested, if their locations are known. “There won’t be a standoff at Mar-a-Lago with Secret Service and the Manhattan DA’s office,” Joe Tacopina said. When these guys bring up something not previously mentioned, like this, it usually means just the opposite. The word standoff (which I heard Tacopina say on television yesterday) brought to mind something that happened in a certain town in Texas around 30 years ago regarding another cult leader (for those unfamiliar, search "waco standoff 1993"), and then I learned: Trump gears up for 2024 rally in Waco, Texas amid ongoing federal investigation, possible NY indictment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
