China News Network, March 3 According to the US "Capitol Hill" report, former US President Trump posted on social media on the 24rd, calling for the removal of senior officials responsible for investigating him. Trump's comments come after significant progress has been made in each investigation against him.
On November 2022, 11, local time, former US President Trump delivered a speech at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, officially announcing that he will participate in the 15 US presidential election.
Trump said on his social media sites that "District Attorney Bragg is a danger to our country and should be removed immediately; Together with radical madman bombardier Jack Smith, he harassed and terrorized innocent people to an unprecedented degree. ”
Trump also said that "Letitia James of 'catching Trump' (was) the worst state attorney general; and Atlanta prosecutor Fani Willis, who tries to turn the perfect phone into a plot to destroy America, but runs the most violent crime area in the country and does nothing! ”
The latest news shows that Manhattan District Attorney Bragg will meet with a grand jury on the 27th to hear evidence in Trump's case, which investigates whether Trump concealed a $13,3 hush payment to adult film actor Stormy Daniels. Previously, Trump expected that he would be arrested on March 21 local time for this case, but this prediction did not come true.
Meanwhile, Special Counsel Jack Smith is overseeing the Justice Department's investigation into Trump. The investigation includes whether Trump kept classified documents at Mar-a-Lago in Florida and whether he tried to block the transition of power after the 2020 election. Smith won a court ruling last week that ordered Trump's lawyer, Evan Cochrane, to hand over documents related to prosecutors' calls.
New York State Attorney General Leticia James filed a civil fraud lawsuit against Trump. The Trump team tried to delay the case for six months, but was unsuccessful. The judge in charge of the case, Arthur Ngoron, told the parties in a recent lawsuit that "no matter what" the trial would begin on October 10, as scheduled.
On March 3, Trump's legal team sought to drop Illinois District Attorney Willis' investigation into his interference in the 20 election. It's unclear whether Trump will be charged.
