Agreed. You were lucky to miss it. I’m afraid it’s going to get worse before it gets better.

After repeated calls to Bragg’s office, GOP Judiciary Comm staffer says he was finally told: “Your committee has no jurisdiction over us. You’re wrong. Stop calling us with this bullshit!” Staffer: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen any govt entity respond to us in that manner.”

Trump supporter charged with pulling knife on family with children outside Manhattan courthouse

https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/2 ... n-00089313
A Donald Trump supporter protesting the Manhattan district attorney’s probe of the former president pulled a knife on a family with two small children Tuesday outside Manhattan Criminal Court, according to a court official.

The man and woman with two children in strollers accidentally bumped into the Trump supporter while crossing the intersection of Hogan Place and Centre Street just after 4:00 p.m., three bystanders told POLITICO. The female protester, who held a sign that read “I support Trump, do you?” began arguing with the couple before she pulled out a blade approximately 6 inches long and waved it at the family, according to the eye-witnesses.

“Angelica Rucker pulled a knife from her right side belt hip area and began menacing one of the complainants with the knife as the verbal confrontation pursued,” a court spokesperson said.

Court officers, who were standing outside the building, rushed over, pulled out their guns and ordered the woman to drop the knife, the bystanders said. She was arrested without incident.

No one was injured. Rucker, who could not immediately be reached for comment, was placed in custody and charges are pending, according to a court spokesperson.

I've been arrested in NYC for a knife with a 2.75" blade, which is actually legal. I eventually got a supervisor to let me go, but they confiscated my knife. A judge ordered them to return it to me when I went to court, but they had conveniently "lost" my $160 knife somehow in their evidence system. A 6" blade is definitely not legal, above and beyond the rest of her behavior.

:yawn:
Manhattan Trump grand jury set to break for a month
A previously planned hiatus would push back a potential indictment of the former president.

The Manhattan grand jury examining Donald Trump’s alleged role in a hush money payment to a porn star isn’t expected to hear evidence in the case for the next month largely due to a previously scheduled hiatus, according to a person familiar with the proceedings.

The break would push any indictment of the former president to late April at the earliest, although it is possible that the grand jury’s schedule could change. In recent weeks, the Manhattan district attorney’s office hasn’t convened the panel on certain days. But it is District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prerogative to ask the grand jury to reconvene if prosecutors want the panel to meet during previously planned breaks.

Did I dream it or, back when this story about Stormy first broke, didn't she speak of another time she was with Trump sans hookup, but not for his lack of trying. I could be misremembering but I believe this was after the original encounter and trump was trying for a second go. He had her call a friend of hers who was also in the porn biz, trying to convince her to come over and join them. I don't recall her name, but couldn't she be a witness, at least to the accusation that trump was... Open to other encounters?

I'm not at home right now but if I think of it, I'll look for it this afternoon.

:snippity:
The timing of Weisselberg parting ways with his Trump lawyers has resulted in suggestions he may have been about to, or already has, flipped on the former president, so the 75-year-old doesn't end up spending more time in prison. Weisselberg already agreed to testify in The Trump Organization fraud trial in exchange for his potential jail sentence being reduced from 15 years to five months, but he didn't implicate the former president.

Karen Agnifilo, former chief assistant district attorney of the Manhattan D.A.'s office, told MSNBC she is "very intrigued" that Weisselberg is no longer represented by Gravante and Mulligan.

"It can mean one of two things. Number one, the case is over and doesn't need lawyers anymore, they were just representing them on that one case," Agnifilo said. "Or, more likely, is there was this pressure campaign put on him saying while he's in Rikers, 'do you like being there? Because we're about to bring other charges.'

"If he testified in the grand jury, you wouldn't necessarily know it because he'd be brought into the backdoor because he's incarcerated," Agnifilo added. "So unlike the other people Michael Cohen, or [attorney] Bob Costello, who told people that testified and we know about them because we see them going in and out of the building. You wouldn't necessarily see Allen Weisselberg. So it's possible he's already testified, we just don't know."

Kilmeade was all over this during his morning radio show. THEY THREW AN 80 YEAR OLD MAN INTO RIKER'S ISLAND!

I was unaware there were exceptions to criminal statutes based on age. I guess for juveniles things work differently. But the elderly? Guess we'll have to let tottering tfg off too.

No link yet, but MSNBC is reporting on air that they've received tips from separate sources that NYPD is stepping up security. Make of that what you will.

Yeah, maybe. Believe it when I see it. MSNBC reported the same thing last week, and...nothing.

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.
