Former President Donald Trump said Saturday he expects to be arrested in connection with the investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney next week and ...

Trump’s US Secret Service detail would deliver him to the Manhattan district attorney’s office for fingerprinting and then taking mugshots in offices of the district attorney’s detective squad. While Trump offered no details on why he expects to be indicted, his legal team has been anticipating that it will happen soon and has been preparing behind the scenes for the next steps. The discussions have been about how to navigate the potential indictment for a criminal charge by a New York county grand jury and the choreography around the possibility of an unprecedented arrest of a former president of the United States.

Prosecutors in New York are considering charges over alleged hush money payments to an ex-porn star.

The district attorney's office has not yet commented. On Saturday Mr Trump wrote on his social networking site Truth Social that "illegal leaks" from the Manhattan district attorney's office "indicate" he would be arrested on Tuesday. Former US President Donald Trump says he is expecting to be arrested on Tuesday in a case about alleged hush money paid to an ex-porn star.

Former President Donald Trump says his indictment by the Manhattan District Attorney for alleged hush money payments is imminent, claiming on Saturday that ...

“If this case is still ongoing, during his run for president, you could face a very unprecedented and challenging situation,” Mariotti says. If indicted, Trump would have to go through the same process, where he would be booked into jail, finger-printed, and a “mug shot” taken. “It’d be very hard to find jurors who haven’t been exposed to the news.” Although rarely used, one method to combat this is for a judge to sequester jurors, limiting their exposure to outside influence or information. “Sometimes we see a huge flood of cameras and reporters at the front of the courthouse,” he says. “You would make an appointment basically, to bring your client in to be booked and fingerprinted,” Wu says. “There won’t be a standoff at Mar-a-Lago with Secret Service and the Manhattan DA’s office,” Joe Tacopina told “Most defendants, even if they’re famous, are often not known by prospective jurors or they don’t have a certain opinion about that person. I think it’s safe to say that Donald Trump is different.” Wu doesn’t anticipate many unusual logistics in the procedures if Trump is indicted, but believes that security would be heightened—similar to measures for other high-profile political figures or celebrities. The hush-money deal, allegedly crafted weeks before his presidential win, could also put Trump in jeopardy of violating campaign finance laws. Trump was invited to testify before a grand jury in early March. The offer to testify, which Trump declined, is required before any indictment.

[the Proud Boys](https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/a-former-marine-stormed-the-capitol-as-part-of-a-far-right-militia) and the Three Percenters, which have endured intense investigation and legal charges for their roles in the Capitol insurrection, will be eager to take to the streets again in Trump’s name. Time will run out for Trump, be it in Georgia, at the Department of Justice, or, if it goes on that long, at the ballot box. The legal and political sources I’ve spoken with tell me that if, in fact, Trump is right and that the first indictment he faces is from the Manhattan D.A., Alvin Bragg, he is fortunate, at least in the short term. Trump no longer commands the platform of the White House to mobilize supporters in the way he did two years ago: “Will be wild!” But he finds ways to get the word out. Trump is shrewd enough to reap political gain if he is indicted this week in New York. He wants only to return to the White House, where he would assemble an Administration of the vengeful; and, if he cannot win, he will at least enjoy the pleasures of remaining at the center of things for a while longer. There is also the matter of his handling of classified documents, which led to the F.B.I. If he is not at the center of things, he is dead. At the same time, with his call to arms, he deliberately aroused memories of [the Capitol insurrection](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/01/25/among-the-insurrectionists) of January 6, 2021, which he did so much to organize and incite. But it’s unclear whether that other crime would need to be a federal offense, or whether a state offense would suffice. [Ron DeSantis](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/06/27/can-ron-desantis-displace-donald-trump-as-the-gops-combatant-in-chief), Trump faces potential prosecution on multiple fronts: the case in New York, for which his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, was already convicted and served time in federal prison; his central role in inciting the January 6th insurrection and obstructing the certification of the Electoral College votes; and the attempt to commit election fraud in Georgia. Just because Trump said he is going to be arrested Tuesday does not mean it is true.

Former president says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday but there has been no official confirmation of the likelihood or timing of charges being brought.

My focus is going to continue to be on the issues that are affecting the American people.” Cohen has said that the money was paid at Trump’s direction. Former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, another declared candidate, did not address the investigation while campaigning in South Carolina. Trump’s post cited “illegal leaks from a corrupt and highly political Manhattan district attorney’s office”. McCarthy said he would direct relevant Republican-led House committees “to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with politically motivated prosecutions”. The search also proved a fundraising boon.

Trump in 2018 initially disputed knowing anything about the payment to Daniels. Bragg's office last year won the conviction of the Trump Organisation on tax fraud charges.

"He needs to be held accountable for his dirty deeds." Trump in 2018 initially disputed knowing anything about the payment to Daniels. Trump, who was in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Saturday and attended the NCAA wrestling championships, leads his early rivals for his party's nomination. Bragg's office last year won the conviction of the Trump Organization on tax fraud charges. "He cannot hide from his violations of the law, disrespect for our elections and incitements to violence." Bragg's office earlier this month invited Trump to testify before the grand jury probing the payment, which legal experts said was a sign that an indictment was close. We will continue to apply the law evenly and fairly and speak publicly only when appropriate." A spokesman for Trump said the former president had not been notified of any arrest. Cohen pleaded guilty in 2018 to federal campaign finance violations tied to his arranging payments to Daniels and another woman in exchange for their silence about affairs they said they'd had with Trump, among other crimes. Trump has said he will continue campaigning even if he is charged with a crime. the far & away leading Republican candidate & former president of the United States of America, will be arrested on Tuesday of next week," Trump wrote on Truth Social. House of Representatives, Kevin McCarthy, on Saturday decried the investigation.

Matthew Dallek's fast-paced and well-researched history shows how the John Birch Society rose, raved and never went away.

The governor parrots Trump and Carlson on Ukraine, flip-flopping in the process. Dallek reminds us of the bookstores opened by the society and the role played by female Birchers. Aloise Josephine Antonia Steiner, a non-Birch conservative and the mother of William Buckley, the founder of the National Review, encouraged an acquaintance to establish a society chapter. Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump supreme court appointee, refers to Brown as inviolate super-precedent but Mollie Hemingway of the Federalist and Carrie Severino of the Judicial Crisis Network both attack its underpinnings. As Dallek points out, many in the Birchers’ ranks possessed a firm foothold in the middle and upper-middle classes. Buckley eventually – and circuitously – came to stand against the Birchers. Birch’s Christianity and the circumstances of his death were central to the society’s message. The John Birch Society is now obscure yet basks in undreamed-of success. The society never disappeared and nor did its ideas and resentments. Dallek looks at how the Birchers’ ideas came to pollenate and populate the Republican party. Back in the day, the society trashed Dwight D Eisenhower and his successor as president, John F Kennedy. “January 6, I think, is probably second only to the 2020 election as the biggest scam in my lifetime,” says Tucker Carlson, the face of Fox News.

Bragg's office appears poised to bring criminal charges against Trump in connection with a hush-money payment made to a porn actress, Stormy Daniels.

Bragg’s office appears poised to bring criminal charges against Trump in connection with a hush-money payment made to a porn actress, Stormy Daniels, at the height of the 2016 presidential campaign. Though a person familiar with the Trump operations said they were not actively organizing protests, Trump’s comments raised alarms about how his followers might be incited to act. Bragg added that “as with all of our investigations, we will continue to apply the law evenly and fairly, and speak publicly only when appropriate.” In his email, Bragg didn’t identify Trump by name, referring only to the “public comments surrounding an ongoing investigation by this office.”

In white-collar cases, the defendant's lawyers and prosecutors typically agree on a date and time, rather than arresting the person at home. Under New York law, the statute of limitations can be extended if the defendant has been out of state, but Trump may argue that serving as U.S. The New York Times, citing sources, has reported the most likely charges against Trump would be for falsifying business records, typically a misdemeanor. "This is so unprecedented that it's hard for me to say," Agnifilo said when asked whether a judge would put Trump on trial close to the election.

The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office declined to comment on the former president’s remarks.

Alvin Bragg is expected to bring an indictment against Trump this week over hush payments to adult actor Stormy Daniels in 2016.

Trump received a standing ovation in Tulsa and held up a defiant fist as he arrived at the wrestling event while fans cheered. If any indictment is handed down, it is likely to claim the payments were an illegal use of campaign finances. Trump made no mention of a criminal indictment and arrest at the Tulsa event. On Saturday afternoon, Trump supporters gathered at his Mar-a-Lago home and country club in Florida to show their support. He added: “We do not tolerate attempts to intimidate our office or threaten the rule of law in New York… Trump talked with fans between matches, but reporters were kept away.
