Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg told the grand jury hearing the case against President Donald Trump to stay home on Wednesday and standby for Thursday.
Bragg did not give a reason why:
The reason for this delay is unclear, including whether it may involve another potential witness to be heard. On Monday, the grand jury, which had according to multiple sources been prepared as of Friday to issue an indictment decision as early as this week, heard from Trump ally Robert Costello, who sought to discredit the prosecution’s key witness: former fixer and personal attorney Michael Cohen. They had been scheduled to reconvene Wednesday afternoon.The latest developments come five days after Trump announced to the world he expected to be arrested and urged his supporters to “PROTEST, PROTEST, PROTEST” in New York City, where throngs of fully uniformed NYPD, Secret Service and other officers secured the Manhattan Criminal Court perimeter ahead of a possible grand jury indictment.Protests have been intermittent and largely muted thus far. A few members of the New York Young Republican’s Club donned MAGA hats and rallied outside Manhattan Criminal Court earlier this week, and Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan has been the scene of a handful of impromptu demonstrations.
Trump is accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels hush money over a supposed affair.
I will update this piece as more information comes out.
