Breaking moments ago, the New York Times is reporting that President Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, the sealed indictment will be released in the next few days and the surrender of President Trump to law enforcement in New York City is being worked out.
(NEW YORK TIMES) – A Manhattan grand jury voted to indict Donald J. Trump on Thursday for his role in paying hush money to a porn star, according to four people with knowledge of the matter, a historic development that will shake up the 2024 presidential race and forever mark him as the nation’s first former president to face criminal charges.
The felony indictment, filed under seal by the Manhattan district attorney’s office, will likely be announced in the coming days. By then, prosecutors working for the district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg, will have asked Mr. Trump to surrender and to face arraignment on charges that remain unknown for now.
[..] Mr. Trump has consistently denied all wrongdoing and attacked Mr. Bragg, a Democrat, accusing him of leading a politically motivated prosecution. He has also denied any affair with the porn star, Stormy Daniels, who had been looking to sell her story of a tryst with Mr. Trump during the campaign.
Here’s what else you need to know:
♦ Mr. Bragg and his lawyers will likely attempt to negotiate Mr. Trump’s surrender. If he agrees, it will raise the prospect of a former president, with the Secret Service in tow, being photographed and fingerprinted in the bowels of a New York State courthouse.
♦ The prosecution’s star witness is Michael D. Cohen, Mr. Trump’s former fixer who paid the $130,000 to keep Ms. Daniels quiet. Mr. Cohen has said that Mr. Trump directed him to buy Ms. Daniels’s silence, and that Mr. Trump and his family business, the Trump Organization, helped cover the whole thing up. The company’s internal records falsely identified the reimbursements as legal expenses, which helped conceal the purpose of the payments.
♦ Although the specific charges remain unknown, Mr. Bragg’s prosecutors have zeroed in on that hush money payment and the false records created by Mr. Trump’s company. A conviction is not a sure thing: An attempt to combine a charge relating to the false records with an election violation relating to the payment to Ms. Daniels would be based on a legal theory that has yet to be evaluated by judges, raising the possibility that a court could throw out or limit the charges.
♦ The vote to indict, the product of a nearly five-year investigation, kicks off a new and volatile phase in Mr. Trump’s post-presidential life as he makes a third run for the White House. And it could throw the race for the Republican nomination — which he leads in most polls — into uncharted territory.
♦ Mr. Bragg is the first prosecutor to lead an indictment of Mr. Trump. He is now likely to become a national figure enduring a harsh political spotlight. (LINK)

Trump is not finished but the Swamp has passed the rubicon.
Uncharted territory now. This will not weaken him.
The left is so stupid. They think the Maga people will turn against him. It will only bring more people into the Maga group!
I will never turn against him. My mind is made up last two times. I watched every rally stuck to it all like glue this time I don’t need to watch. Nothing that he says nothing that he does and nothing that they say or do will change my mind. It is us against them.
Maybe those pathetic pervert trannys who were planning to show up in DC with their firearms can be diverted to NYC by their puppet masters and given MAGA hats to enrich the lefts media circus.
I do believe they’ll be showing up in every major city this weekend, especially in those states trying to block the chemical & physical castration & mutilation of every child.
But, but the WALLS ARE CLOSING IN – hahahaha
Fascist overreach, as usual.
Trump just won the election.
Your lips to God’s ears.
he won last time, too. that will not be adequate enough for victory.
Exactly.
NO REAL AMERICAN wants to live under a completely lawless gov’t. Not even a dumbass Democrat.
Exactly what has been done to stop them from stealing the election again?
Listen to me now and believe me later.
This one man (if by some divine miracle is ‘officially’ elected to office after the 2024 election cycle) is all that stands between the mass murdering satanic Malthusian cult bent on killing over 8 billion people, from their own mouths.
Their tools are diseases, economic collapse and nuclear war, which they alone created and are actively pushing for right now.
Basically, the green, black and red horses, followed by satan on the white horse.
Given the above, why wouldn’t they use this as a pretext for some crackhead trans-gender to ‘accidentally’ find a way to ‘assassinate’ him in NYC. Have we learned nothing from Lincoln, JFK, even Reagan barely survived their plans?
Oh well, blame the Christians for his murder? Oh, and just like J6, if you have a problem with this more kinetic form of power transfer, off to the DC gulag you go where the elimination of all Constitutional rights is suspended.
Seriously his security detail, heck his entire family needs to resist this.
Thumbprints, signed documents, and even photo ops can be done all in the ‘safety’ at his home in Florida, should it come to that.
I have thought for some time now man reaps what man has sown during the Tribulation. It cannot be stopped.
“Seriously his security detail, heck his entire family needs to resist this.”
this.
i think its well past time. refuse to consent. refuse to comply. set the example that 100 million others are waiting for.
If you don’t think more than 100 thousand wouldn’t surround his house to protect him you would be wrong.
They have helicopters.
My mother said from day one of Obama’s rollout to the public (2004-era) that he was the anti-Christ.
She’s right , he’s the devils spawn!
You’re all pathetic and he will walk again. Thank you for making Trump a sure thing as the next President by being so desperate. Lol.
Paul, they were talking about Obama, not Trump. Obama is the devil’s spawn.
Well given that this S show is being run by him, he still the leading candidate for the one that prepares his pathway.
That’s all dandy but he ain’t gonna be here at my house when the goons start gooning. I stand between me and the greedy people. As do all children of God by His Son’s decree. Nobody else can save you.. I am still reeling from the last time Trump “saved” me.
Contrary to what most claim, I believe Trump is the first horseman of the apocalypse. Set out to conquer with a crown and a sword? It fits.
I don’t follow…
Donald Trump, the conqueror?
No. We were told that the generation of the last days would understand.
The switch is the horses act in opposite to their release.
For example economic, the black horse, is next.
Talk to me next year or so.
No
I’m afraid they will “Jack Ruby” him if he comes to NY.
The only people who can keep PDJT out of the White House now are GOPe types.
If they unify behind Trump they will not only save the country, but be saving their own party because if they don’t and use this or any of the other bogus crap coming down the pike to take him out and foist another pseudo-conservative in the base, they will be committing political suicide.
This indictment has made the notion of putting anyone other than Trump at the top of the ‘24 ticket an act of cowardice and capitulation to tyranny.
….. and yes. It’s just as simple as that.
Still think people need to band together and let Republicans know no Trump and it is over. What difference would it make anyway. Thune needs to learn he is not in charge the people are and he can stick that so called Restrict bill where thensun doesn’t shine.
good read, Clivus
“This indictment has made the notion of putting anyone other than Trump at the top of the ‘24 ticket an act of cowardice and capitulation to tyranny.”
AGREED. but its not enough for him to “win” the “election” – he did that last time.
anything other than ensuring he is safely placed in the oval office is capitulation to tyranny.
He told us what to do about that–ballot harvest, in the States where it is legal. That’s how the California MAGA have done it. Watch them and learn.
Every other Republican candidate should resign NOW, and endorse Trump! If not, we should hound them till they do!
Starting with DeSanctimonious. Oh. That’s right. He’s not running.
He should not surrender. This is a false indictment just like the impeachments were false impeachments. Let them try to take him out of FL.
yup. take a poll of your SS detail and let anyone who is not ready sit it out.
oh don’t think these evil sobs would not send in a swat brigade after him, they are that f’ing debased
They already have, they raided his home.
US Secret Service presidential detail would have an issue with that.
I pray you’re right. But sadly, I also suspect they may be told to stand down by their superiors. One has to wonder how many in the Secret Service are also compromised.
Like the agent who was told to get off the bumper of the JFK lemo….
Exactly.
Many SS agents were compromised in the JFK assassination.
RDS did say the State of Florida would not participate in Trump’s extradition. ‘Course he didn’t say he would fight it either.
The human Meatball responds:
https://floridianpress.com/2023/03/desantis-responds-to-indictment-of-president-trump/
Maybe DeSantis is seeing the light that 2024 is not in the cards?…
light = polls.
Maga Polls, as opposed to Rove polls.
He should have the FL AG empanel a grand jury to indict Bragg for an illegal campaign contribution to Democrats.
All talk, no action.
He doesn’t have to extradite him because Trump will go voluntarily.
They despise us all.
Welcome to the USSA
Trump should consider fleeing to a non extradition country, as he’s likely going to prison. NY, then Georgia, then Trump killer Jack Smith. Sad, but true.
disagree entirely. he should either decide to sit it out for all he has already endured, or fight it tooth and nail by refusing to comply or cooperate with this illegitimate government.
It’s not in his nature to run!
Well, Brazil is out, as the government has gone full on communist. They’d send him back in a heartbeat. /s
Waiting for the Trump curse to hit these scum. It happens every time.
The Trump boomerang!
It is time for all other Republican challengers for the nomination for President to drop out of the race and endorse Trump for President. It is time to send a message that we will no longer tolerate political prosecutions. For those Republicans that are running or thinking of running, it is a time for choosing as Reagan said.
We will never forget what fellow Republicans do at this moment.
And we will sunshine every email, every phone call, every meeting between media, Democrats, and their aligned groups (in and out of government) as best we can. Hold nothing back. A Twitter Files/Pentagon Papers/Best FOIA ever from every Republican writing to every agency at every level of government. Make the process and the resulting sunshine the punishment.
The Republican party is DEAD AND CORRUPT
Retired Magistrate here: We all need to be prayer warriors for President Trump: for President Trump’s protection, strength, wisdom and courage.
Never in my 75 years have I seen anyone so wrongly persecuted for serving the people that elected him and to do the “crime” of Making America Great Again.
This truly is a battle between good and evil, the likes of which I have not seen before, all directed towards one man who just wants people to succeed and live their best lives.
I can’t even believe that he (AND HIS FAMILY) are willing to go through this again, FOR US.
DeSanctus now says that he will not extradite. Big bluff. Trump would be stuck in FL. Trump will appear and get out with no money bail. Trump could also lose NY assets by not appearing. DeSanctus knows this so he is trying to look tough even though he won’t have to do anything. DeSanctus must have poll tested the response.
RDS does not need to extradict him because Trump will go voluntarily.
DeSantistans acting all surprised continuing to feign ignorance and surprise by these events sickens me.
Have the past eight years not shown you enough? Or do you continue to hold out hope that you’ll get that promised seat at the table when they’re done destroying the country? Surely they wouldn’t betray you, a Benedict Arnold, now would they?
Evil people don’t share power.

“rumor was $100,000 per person”
Statement from CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp on the Indictment of President Trump
“We are appalled and strongly condemn the abuse of power coming from the New York District Attorney. Americans have lost confidence in institutions and government experts because truth has become a casualty to raw political power. The renewed prosecutorial pursuit and indictmentof President Trump is an outrageous breach of constitutional norms and a continuation of his maniacal political prosecution. We believe that the authoritarian punishment of political opponents is deeply un-American and is more akin to the proceedings of a Kangaroo court in a corrupt Third World Banana Republic. For too long now our justice system has been at the disposal of unhinged bureaucrats, overzealous activist judges, and radicalized individuals who have transformed the institutions of our nation into political weapons. Without the proper countermeasures, the Left will continue to wield our judicial system against its opponents and further de-legitimize our democracy. President Donald J. Trump is not the first victim of this abuse, and he will certainly not be the last.”
Trump might as well negotiate a surrender on Good Friday. He has the entire empire trying to crucify him.
Amen.
What’s good for the goose, is good for the gander…precedent making is their game, and they’ve set the stage~
Popcorn for everyone!!! Enjoy the show!!! It will be quite bumpy, but worth the ride!!!
Lol, I hope Trump tells them to go pound sand.
God Bless and protect our President Trump!
MAGA 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏻🙏🏻
If Mickey Mouse can run circles around him, Putin and Xi will run wild.
FYI, you can’t arrest a President. Trump is the real president. Do the research!
Time for real reporters to examine all the former Presidents and their pay for silence in their own campaigns. Also every prominent politician running for President. Include Senators and Congressmen that are serving today.
Let there be sunshine on all their deeds. They just may have opened the door to their own hell.
Maybe OMG civilian reporters can do a deep dive through all public records and court reports.
Banana Republic sh!tholes around the world are laughing their asses off right now. Honestly, I’m embarrassed to be an American. Our government and justice system are blatantly corrupt and no one in power seems to care.
I really hope Putin and Xi are able to create a multi-polar world where every nation’s sovereignty is respected even if it means that America is reduced to a dystopian nightmare walled-off from the rest of the world. Are there any countries worth moving to where you might have some freedom? Maybe I can learn Hungarian.
Mexico, in certain places, is an option. Low cost of living, nice weather, the gov’t will pretty much leave you alone. It’s just not in the culture to surveill and track its citizens.
The Russian constitution was amended a while ago to include the wording that marriage is between a MAN and a WOMAN. Putin helped push the amendment through. Not very exciting there, though…. no lggbtq+ parades are allowed and the Orthodox church has rebuilt tens of thousands of church buildings that were destroyed by the communists. Putin’s speech about the decadent west was interesting, too.
Who ever thought we would be envious of the Russian government?
Does anybody know what DA would be responsible for indicting Joe Biden for accepting monies from China? Does anybody know what DA would be responsible for indicting Hunter Biden?
The U S. Attorney for Delaware still has ‘jurisdiction” over Hunter’s case but it’s a sham because we all know Hunter will never be indicted & even if he were indicted, the “Big Guy” would immediately issue a pardon for his son & himself. That’s never been done before by a sitting president either.
“An analysis of the [nursing home mandates of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and California] has demonstrated a weakness in the [Death Star].”
See for yourself:
https://www.houseofstone76.com/post/the-parliamentarian-was-wrong
Wow.
So they actually bit the bullet and did it? They were feeding the media nonsense about waiting until next week to indict even with this statute of limitations and the hidden evidence, they still did it.
This is just….wow.
Threatened GJ members, or dumbasses..
Or both.
This is obscene.
Somehow I just can’t help putting some heavy blame on John Roberts.
It is criminal that these traitors just sit there in their black robes (fitting color) and let the country burn down.
Every other Republican candidate should resign NOW, and endorse Trump! If not, we should hound them till they do! A little solidarity would go a long way about now!
YES!!
Soros’s consiglieres are not “under seal” and will one day stand before The Real Judge.
Democrats like “firsts” so this is the first time Democrats will help elect Trump!
GLOVES ARE OFF I AM SO PISSED
OUR GOVERMENT IS SO CORRUPT
REMEMBER NO DISCRETIONARY SPENDING
SHUT IT DOWN
There is nothing “grand” here, just more of the same spiritual wickedness and demonic forces at work.
Same goal, different approach, another failure……………..
Put our Trump flag back up an hour ago!
The crapheadedcrats are sure showing their desperation.
RESTORE THE RIGHTFUL PRESIDENT.
And put Biden on a guillotine for closure.
Did they indict Trump, or did they indict a ham sandwich??
If this thing actually goes down I will contribute and order a boatload of Trump 2024 merch on the same day.
Robert Barnes discusses the indictment extensively in today’s live stream. It was encouraging to listen too.

Barnes is so astute. Good news.
Thanks
My apologies if this was already posted.

Jason Whitlock is great on Tucker tonight. I hope all can catch his statement. He is NOW MAGA!!
Wow, that month delay went by fast.
There has always been the “new york minute” but “new york month”?
The da office staff aren’t geniuses, they are just your standard old communists.
what WAS the “crime” committed by President Trump?
he told a truth about the institution of the central state.
he did it openly, with strength and HAD THE RECEIPTS.
When we understand WHY President Trump is so dangerous to the institutionally corrupt secret police spy state, we can get a very good understanding of HOW THIS COUNTRY WAS FORMED. What WAS the issue…outside of the taxation without representation…the unlawful search and seizure. outside of the limits to private asset and business and land ownership….those were very real CONDITIONS BESET UPON THE YOUNG AMERICANS…But for point of this argument, lets just set those aside and examine exactly what and how the revolutionary war began.
“Criminal libel is traced to the English Star Chamber
Criminal statutes punishing defamatory statements date from as early as the thirteenth century in England. Criminal libel law as applied in America can be traced directly to the English Star Chamber, which, during the time of King Henry VIII (r. 1509–1547), became a forum for prosecuting critics of the monarch.”
https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/941/criminal-libel
“seditious libel”
that is: to say a GREAT truth is a threat to a central state.
“the greater the truth, the greater the libel”
Our ENTIRE AMERICAN CONSTITUTION WAS FORMED BY A REVOLUTIONARY WAR THAT STARTED WHEN YOUNG AMERICANS DECIDED THEY WOULD SIMPLY NO LONGER
BE KEPT.
President Trump has done the one thing that this tyrannt state cannot allow: He told the truth. May truths. GREAT AND HORRIBLE TRUTHS.
this is why he is a threat. This is why they will indict him. BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY..
because THEY CAN.
that is unchallenged power. That is WHAT STARTS THE ENGAGEMENT PROCESS IN STAGE 4 of the NEW REVOLUTION, transfer of power.
You see, there were hundreds, thousands of people detained, jailed, imprisoned, stripped of everything they possessed and many who were assassinated and killed during those 30 long years before the young americans organized a milia. It was 30 years of ever increasing grave danger (is there any other kind?), that would eventually give way to the young americans finally realizing: we have no other options.
President Trump is whether we like it or not a martyr to a larger dimension of grievances.
when he is arrested, charged, tried and convicted….this will set off the first series of regional skirmishes.
stay frosty.
We have not yet begun to fight…But fight we will
God Bless America
Reminds me of when Harry Reid put the “Nuclear Option” in play and was later shocked that the GOP walked through the door his Party opened… My guess is that there will be a ]public airing of the Biden and Democrat cleptocracy…
Jason Whitlock on Tucker…wow!
He said he has been supporting Trump…but now…
HE IS HARDCORE MAGA !
He had much more to say too. I’ll post the video when I see it.
It would like to see the NYPD show up and stand with Trump.
He’s had their back.
This is act one of a coordinated attack. It will quickly be followed by an indictment out of Fulton County, GA. While those two indictments proceed through the court system, within the year the special prosecutor will follow with Act 3. The aim is to bankrupt Trump and to pile on so much bs that he will remove himself as a candidate. But if that is their plan, it isn’t going to work. He will fight to his dying day for the country and will not only remain as a candidate, he will win the election.
You have it right. Perfect.
The sooner the GOP goes extinct the better. The true Rs will leave in droves once the illegitimacy of McDaniels and Friends is clearly visible. Get out of Sodom people or go up in smoke with it.
What PAC will accept donations that go directly to the TRUMP campaign? I will not contribute to the RNC and winred until there is a new Chairperson there.
I agree, without PDJT in office in 2025, the Republican party is dead.
Now is the time to put the wheels in motion for MAGA to go toe toe with Rhinos and Dems. Now that they have taken the gloves off, we have to get off our a$$ and take our country back from the criminals running it, turning it into a 3rd world nation. I stand with Trump
I believe his lawyers would serve pro bono on his behalf.
Josh Hawley who is pushing for the Restrict Bill ? What a hypocrit
All the Senators are corrupt. All.
The indictment is sealed, because it’s a “secret indictment” that can only be revealed after Trump is frog marched with arms and leg cuffs in an orange jumper to the kill room like Epstein and so many others. Here’s your “civil” war folks. The country will be divided along this “secretly sealed fantasy indictment” to coincide with the collapse of the petrodollar that no longer buys petrol, the failed war in Ukraine to be followed by NATO troops occupying western Ukraine against collapse, and a myriad of other corrupt, evil, unsustainable ventures by the Deep State Whore of ‘Mystery’ Babylon. See a few, very few of you on the other side of this malarkey. See how that worked? They put you to sleep like they had nothing and were retreating before telling you it’s a “secret” indictment. They won’t be able to tell you what it is, you see because it involves “national security”. Namely their security, from all of us.
See my comments below on the accumulation of crises and their resolution.
A sealed indictment is common practice. Contents are held until the named is arrested. Sometimes the contents are held from the public if there are innocent parties swept up in the process, ie; you just happen to be in the room when the accused did something that you had no part of other than your presence. No need to drag your name through the mud, so you will remain anonymous.
