    Trump indicted after Manhattan DA probe for hush money payments

    Former President Donald Trump has been indicted as part of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office's years-long investigation, possibly for hush money payments.

    Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has been investigating Trump for hush money payments made leading up to the 2016 presidential election.

    These include the $130,000 payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, and the $150,000 payment made to former Playboy model Karen McDougal, Fox News Digital has learned.

    Hush money payments made to both McDougal and Daniels were revealed and reported by Fox News in 2018. Those payments had been investigated by the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Southern District of New York and by the Federal Election Commission.

    Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York opted out of charging Trump related to the Stormy Daniels payment in 2019, even as Cohen implicated him as part of his plea deal. The Federal Election Commission also tossed its investigation into the matter in 2021.

    Trump reacted to his indictment, slamming Bragg for his "obsession" with trying to "get Trump," while warning the move to charge a former president of the United States will "backfire..."

    Didn't see you posted Trump news before I did fuego. You can delete it from the News Items category so it's not a double post.

    This is all orchestrated to run like a theatre production until election day 2024.

    It's all pretty disgusting especially in the context of the past theatre productions like "Russia, Russia, Russia" and the inexplicable phoney partisan impeachment over a telephone call to someone in Ukraine.

    I remain optimistic though that America will emerge stronger than ever.

    I remember in the late 90s when Clinton committed perjury before a Federal grand jury and urged Monica to file a false affidavit. The Democrats said he shouldn't face any legal consequences because this is about his private sex life. Now when Trump just pays his mistress to keep quiet about his sex life the Democrats are pushing for jail time.
