Sometimes you know they've done the crime, but you can't prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

It's not political. It's an issue with witness credibility. That's why they brought in Pecker to testify. Apparently it's still not quite enough, which I find rather interesting.

How do you know it's not enough? Pecker just testified yesterday. The Grand Jury doesn't convene again until tomorrow (Wednesday March 29th).

Looks like they are not meeting at all until May!. Yikes.

Disgraceful. How is the former president still getting away with inciting violence to avoid his just desserts (this time facing indictment).

Debasing the Manhattan DA as less than human and posting a pic of himself swinging a baseball bat menacingly next to a pic of Bragg on social media? And top GOP congresspeople support his violent rhetoric?

When will this madness end?

Two things can be disgraceful.

When will it end? When the powers that be quit charging Trump with things that are not crimes. The DA ran on "getting Trump." That is not how our justice system is supposed to work.

Do I want Trump to be president? NO.
Do I think Bragg should be prosecuting himn? NO

Why should Michael Cohen go to jail for Trump's illegal acts but not Trump himself?

We don't actually know what, if anything, Bragg is planning to charge.

I think it was Letitia James (NY AG) who mentioned getting Trump, not Bragg.

And agreed, we have no idea what Bragg will be charging (if anything). But another witness was brought to the GJ today, and the whole GJ (all 23 members) were there. Make of that what you will

Letitia James absolutely ran on her ability to "get Trump."
But, Bragg did too.

I’m sorry, I thought Republicans wanted DAs to be “tough on crime”. Or… not major crimes, maybe? Is that right? You want greasy skids like Trump to slide on through his life of felonies but smaller petty crimes to be prosecuted aggressively? That’s weirdly hypocritical of you.

Yes. I want DA's to be tough on crime.
What THIS DA is dong is not going after a crime. He is going after a political opponent.
Even those who are not Trump supporters agree.
Meanwhile, Bragg chooses to reduce felonies to misdemeanors in over 50% of the cases he prosecutes.

Nah, he's going after a crime. Just because someone turns into a politician, doesn't mean they don't have to follow the law.

What was the crime?

Tax fraud

That isn't what is reported that he is pursuing.

If Trump claims the payments to Cohen were for legal services (which they weren't) and then claims a deduction on his taxes for those "legal services", that is tax fraud.

Tee hee. Hey, at least the Trump saga is providing unending fodder for late night comics. I didn't watch any of them prior to his election, and now they're part of my staple entertainment

I suppose I should ask, which Monday?

PP you replied to. Right, I suppose they did not have time to vote the same day.

Well I still appreciate that NY public prosecutors are trying to hold this slippery unethical blow hard coward to some measure of accountability. He will spin it the way he always does. His cowardice and hypocrisy are beyond belief.

+1

Since when are inciting violent insurrections, fraudulent use of campaign funds, paying hush money to hookers out of political funds and tax laundering not criminal ?

You don't seem to know much about this case if this is what you believe.
Not even going to comment on the rest of your drivel.

The only drivel here are claims that Trump should not be investigated and tried for criminal behavior.

This particular case may be limited to investigating hush money to a porn star but much broader patterns of criminal behavior exists. Why should Trump escape the law over and over again?

It is inappropriate and disgraceful that powerful congressional Republicans are defending his latest veiled calls for violent protesters and bullying Mr. Bragg provide them with communications, documents and testimony. Prosecutors are barred from sharing information about an active investigation with third parties, and such information is confidential under NY state law.
