According to reports, on the 28th, Trump posted an all-capital post on his social media platform "Truth Social", describing the investigation of the "hush money" case as "election interference". He wrote, "Prosecutor meddling in elections is the Democratic Party's latest 'ballot stuffing' (i.e., cheating) tactic!" ”
In another post, Trump blasted Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who led the case. "Everyone is waiting for a local prosecutor backed by George Soros to decide whether he will charge me criminally for 'not guilty,'" he wrote. ”
Trump also said that all other prosecutors and the Federal Election Commission decided not to pursue the matter, and Bragg himself has said that he will not prosecute it. "A year ago, he, Alvin Bragg, said 'impossible'. But why is he restarting the investigation now? He should sue Michael Cohen (Trump's former personal lawyer)! ”
According to previous reports, the investigation into Trump's payment of "hush money" has lasted for nearly 5 years. The charges allege that Trump and his then-personal lawyer, Cohen, paid $13,2016 in "hush money" to star Daniels, who claimed she had had a relationship with Trump shortly before the <> election.
The grand jury charged with discussing Trump's "hush money" case continued to call witnesses on March 3 and has not yet entered the stage of making a decision. When the decision will be made has been closely watched across the country, as no former president has ever been criminally prosecuted. On the other hand, Prague continued to refuse the House Republicans' request for a hearing on him on the 27th. The latter asked Bragg to attend a hearing on why Trump was "hush money" investigated.
According to the report, the grand jury meets three days a week on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, but due to the confidentiality of the schedule, the outside world has no way of knowing the progress of the trial. Trump himself had previously predicted that he would be indicted or even arrested on the 3st, but this did not happen.
In addition, US law enforcement sources recently revealed that in recent weeks, there have been hundreds of threats against Alvin Prague and his office, dozens of which claimed to cause direct threat or serious harm to Prague. Currently, the FBI and the New York Police Department are investigating the matter.
