The rumor mill says Fani Willis may indict on Wednesday. If so, I'll be content with second place in the poll. This is an example of motivated reasoning, which is a poor guide to truth.

Apparently the playbook is for Trump to leak the news himself, while blaming 'illegal leaks'.

Trump has keaked again. The number of the counting shall be 33, neither more nor less. Otherwise, Trump weighs the same as a duck.

Trump also alludes to 'the reporter'. And yet, I have not seen any such reporting. I wonder if the reporter's name is David Dennison?

Exclusive: Trump to be charged Tuesday with 34 felony counts, but spared handcuffs and mug shot

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will charge Trump with falsification of business records, a source told Yahoo News.​

Now we have a reporter, but Trump didn't get the number right. (And therefore he is made of wood.) Maybe David Dennison works for a different paper.

He is *so* not ready for this. 3000+ legal cases, not a single one criminal. Now he interacts with the criminal justice system himself.

For example "Points of indictment", they're called "counts", etc.

What choice does he have when his legal counsel has instructed him to use social media to air his grievances and mount a defense?

A small correction: There has been a criminal trial of his company, in the same courtroom, by the same judge, though I doubt Trump felt any real jeopardy as the largest penalty was a ~$1 M fine. (Which they got.)

EXCLUSIVE: Fulton County DA Fani Willis says announcement of whether indictments will be issued or not is coming this summer in Trump probe


Willis revealed the timetable in a letter to local law enforcement in which she asked them to be ready for “heightened security and preparedness” because she predicted her announcement “may provoke a significant public reaction.”

In the letters, Willis said she will announce possible criminal indictments between July 11 and Sept. 1

Barricades placed outside Fulton County courthouse ahead of possible Trump charges

In a written statement, the Fulton County Sheriff’s office says that it is “proactively coordinating with local, state and federal agencies to enhance security during high profile legal proceedings at the Fulton County Courthouse. Some of the measures we are deploying, such as barriers that will limit parking near the courthouse, will be obvious to the public. For security reasons, other measures being deployed will not be as obvious.”
