The Manhattan grand jury that is considering a potential indictment of former president Donald Trump over his alleged involvement with a hush-money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels will not meet on Wednesday, according to several reports, delaying any potential indictment until Thursday at the earliest.
Trump claimed over the weekend that he would be arrested Tuesday in connection with a $130,000 payment allegedly made to the porn actress on his behalf. That prediction did not come to fruition.
“THE FAR & AWAY LEADING REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE & FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WILL BE ARRESTED ON TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. PROTEST, TAKE OUR NATION BACK!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
“THEY’RE KILLING OUR NATION AS WE SIT BACK & WATCH. WE MUST SAVE AMERICA!PROTEST, PROTEST, PROTEST!!!” he later added.
The grand jury meets on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays but was given Wednesday off, according to reports from Insider and the New York Times. A law enforcement source told Insider it is unlikely that the grand jury will meet at all this week.
The grand jury may hear from at least one more witness before voting on a potential indictment, per the Times.
From Politico:
“The grand jury has been told to stay home today. They’re on standby for tomorrow,” one senior law-enforcement official said.
“The D.A.’s office didn’t tell the court why the day off, [they] just said, ‘I don’t want them today, maybe tomorrow,’” the official added.
A spokesperson for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg didn’t respond to a request for comment.
The investigation appeared to be in its final stages in recent days, as prosecutors allowed a defense witness, Robert Costello, to testify on Monday.

DeSantis is a true contender for the White House in 2024. They would dance on his wife’s grave and celebrate if they could.

AOC is a disgusting reprobate with no class, no integrity and no conscience.

She is a “do as I say not as I do” kind of person. Like Pelosi and most of the Democratic Party

Why do I suspect AOC is a Soros (bought and paid for) actor?

I can only imagine the mental capacity of those who would vote this young woman into office. No real life experiences and she betrays her (I’ll go ahead and say it) stupidity every time she opens her mouth.

The only defense the congresswoman could conjure up was to call Florida Governor Ron DeSantis “missing” instead of doing his job. “Hasn’t Gov. DeSantis been inexplicably missing for like 2 weeks?” she tweeted.
“If he’s around, I would be happy to say hello. His social media team seems to have been posting old photos for weeks. In the meantime, perhaps ii could help with local organizing. Folks are quite receptive here” she added.
So instead of helping her constituents with the lockdowns.. mandates that violate title 18 us code she has left them to party in Florida.. her only issue was the Governor not meeting with her………… probably because > perhaps ii could help with local organizing….
Her district is a mess that she helped create.. why would anyone with brains have her help organize….

AOC is typical of the New Age Progressive Radical Democrat. She lets her Alligator Mouth overload her Hummingbird A$$. She’s not much more than a pompous upstart with a BA who went from a New York bartender to a congresswoman in the House of Representatives of the United States. Looks to me like she wants to un-Unite the States – like most democraps are trying to do…

No surprise that the “Braying JackAss AOC, who shows 2 1/2inches of gums and teeth-is also such a Hypocrite who rushed off to Fla. for some of Gov.DeSantis’ Excellent Rules for HIS CONSTITUENTS-Unlike HER N.Y. where Commie Mayor (Wilhelm)AKA-DeBlasio, who has New Yorkers Leaving there in droves, due to HIS Ineptness! AOC, who Should have stuck to bar tending, as she’s as dumb as a “Box of Rocks”…but found the “Golden Eggs in Politico World she’s Now Living Large in- but CAN’T help out HER GRANNY, she IGNORED, but expected Tax Payers to help!”
(All this, and she now is driving a Tesla-living in HER Penthouse???

What this lowlife piece of s*** thinks that just because she snuck into the best governor in the United States state to get away but yet just because she’s there he’s supposed to come out and what give her a welcome to Florida Rally or something? LMAO LMAO that’s probably exactly what she expected was for him to come meet her and have dinner or something with her I could see her doing that now instead she she goes to the lowest low you can get… That’s one thing about the far left in the Liberals they always jump to conclusions before the true facts come out it’s been happening for 2 years now and It’ll still continue to until we get “let’s go Brandon” out of office and the cameltoe next to him!!

Hey AOC. What is happening in your district? How long has it been since you’ve focused on your constituents? Did you forget about them? No worries the voting machines, policies, and ballot harvesting have got your back.
