NV96308613 Another witch-hunt

No charges were brought against Mr Trump personally, though prosecutors said the former president had signed some of the cheques at the centre of the case.

Grand Larceny first

So could Bonespurs actually spend time in jail or will a janitor or someone from the mail room take the fall?

Why wasn’t he put in handcuffs?

Is everyone around trump a criminal? I remember when Obama was criticized heavily over shit a reverend he knew said..so ridiculous.

Another L

Crime of the century lmao

SecondTimeBigLoser 🤭 & OneTermWorstPresident 😭 ExPresidentDumb Says 💯%

Vindictive action to hurt trump

Here's the joy of this I tried to explain a year ago when everyone wanted him federally charged. Unlike fed charges where he's go free., they can haul his ass to Riker's on Thursday!

About f’n time!

Loving it!

NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. They keep trying, and can’t do anything. Trump the most powerful person in the WORLD

EileenMarieSar1 Yippee!

Is this 2021 new Manhattan Project? Are they going to drop the bomb? TheTrump bomb?

The endless kangaroo court escapades continue

TrumpOrgIndictments

Can any legal eagles help me understand what happens after the accused are indicted? e.g., is there always an arraignment where they have to plea g or ng? settlement, yay or nay bc it's criminal charges? You think they will go to trial? Just curious!

This is what we’ve been waiting for this whole time? Fringe benefit payments?

Of course it’s politically motivated. It’s a payback to the damages he did to this world in the past 4 years.

A prosecutor can indict a ham sandwich, ………… meaningless & boring.

Zzzzzzzzzz

Reminds me of a certain Capone family member

did they say this last week and the week before and the week before that?

LoriBrabant Yea

The Trump saga is over.

Gardening_Angel This is a classic example of how the “the system” of US politics deal with citizens that get in their way...!! How dare he try to clean out the swamp.

Get a feeling that Thursday POTUS45 and/or one his GOP lackeys will create some event to pull focus from the NY DA's announcements....

Who cares UFOs are real

How come he’s not in jail by now?

Do it already.

Remember the trump foundation and trump network

Aye it’s about to go down!!!!

Don't forget 19 boxes of trump org documents legally left trump tower and was turned over. There is credible evidence to continue with other charges. Don't fret just yet or is this just like the poor trump jet?

löl- that's tuff^

well overdue. He has been laughing at the american people long enough.

DonaldJTrumpJr JoeBiden The prisoners are ready for your daddy. They have the matching orange suit to o with his orange tan.

Hey DonaldJTrumpJr, EricTrump & IvankaTrump r u rdy? Get ur bags packed. U know daddy won’t know u in a few days, right? But isn’t tht sort of like whn u were younger also?

Time to pay the piper!!

So what happened with Trump's lawyer saying that he would not be charged.. and right wing nutters asking for an apology 🤣🤣

We will see the fraud in his taxes?

Happy 4th!

Fake news

Hoooooray!

Ooooh baby.

People who are close to the matter told me so you know its true.

Over 4 decades of Trump doing taxes with no issues and now these supposed geniuses say they have something?

Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch.

here we go again. again

🚓🚔🚨

From Russia with love 😂

Does anybody else think that any prosecutor could come up with the same charges for any billionaire? Politically motived prosecutions is banana republic type of behavior. This hurts our democracy in the long run.

sfloughlin Why is it the very wealthy always get a slap on the wrist for these white collar crimes Hoping these prosecutors have more than this to haul Trump in. How many people are protecting this guy?

Tax or no Taxes by Trump?

DonaldJTrumpJr uh oh junior. What will you do?

EXSPECTED?.. YOU A FORTUNE TELLER OR A TRUMP HATER?....

Those bye Don days of summer have finally arrived. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of folks.

be more specific. We all know t will be indicted. The question is of what. Everything else is clickbait.

'people familiar with the matter say'

Ok, at whose house is the party?

Why is the 7th Circuit Appellate Court protecting, defending, and/or working in concert with the Department of Justice and their deliberate discriminatory practices with the Whistleblower Act of 2013, amended 2016? This is a 'black' man's experience.

NY is MAGA 🤣

If banks/Russia don't want their loans tied up in litigation, they better call in those tRump loans right now

LAW & ORDER!

This is all they've come up with in 3 years. Perks to employees. BFD. What company doesn't do this. Much ado about nothing which is sad. And who at the 'Trump Organization' is charged - not Trump or kids - so who, just the CFO?

gtconway3d Took him becoming president for you to unearth this?

Do you think Allen will be around tomorrow?

Cough BULLSHIT cough

gtconway3d WhiteCollarCapone

Al Capone is laughing in hell ... 'they never learn'

What’s the over/under on the CFO accepting a plea bargain?

Still not gonna charge tRump. Hopefully they will. But I doubt it'll happen.

gtconway3d Here comes the 'TRuMp iSn'T bEiNg ChArGeD, hIs cOmPaNY iS, hE'S nOt rEsPoNsiBLe fOr ThIs'

Get your popcorn ready.

Everyone getting charge except Trump.

MakeThemPay

This is pathetic. Grasping at straws

Lock him up! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH

FINALLY!!!!!!!

No political motivation there….

gtconway3d The creaking of the wheels echoes as the tumbrels slowly roll through the canyons of lower Manhattan.

gtconway3d When prosecutors call Trump as a witness, will he take the fifth?

gtconway3d This is equivalent to jaywalking.

Took this long ?!

Witch hunt

gtconway3d

Yay!!!!!!

Why announce this? Why not just arrest them? Does anyone know the thinking behind this?

gtconway3d

Can't wait, just can't wait for the Fox propaganda spin on this...you guys must have spent weeks trying to develop just the right pitch ...you care to share before it is blared out by FoxNews?

We all know from every mob movie that you got to go after the money guy...and they went after the money guy!

Not bogus, these indictments are backed by facts! More indictments to follow. This will look like the ending in the movie,” The Departed!”

Trump's corruption is legendary.

What’s the difference between the Manhattan project and Manhattan prosecutions? Manhattan project folks had a Real Job!!!

LOCK THEM UP!!!!!

Good luck with that.

Lol

Is that all they got?

Bye Don, this is only the beginning.
