NY grand jury investigating Trump will break for most of April, court source says
Source: CNN Politics

New York CNN — The Manhattan grand jury hearing the hush money case involving former President Donald Trump is currently scheduled to break after April 5 and restart later in the month, a court administration source told CNN. It is not immediately clear whether the grand jury will hear the Trump case again before April 5.

If the grand jury does not hear the case again for several weeks, it will pause what had been a wave of anticipation that a former president could be indicted for the first time in American history. Trump himself incorrectly predicted he would be arrested last week amid news reports about security preparations being made in the event of an indictment.

Grand jury proceedings are secret and subject to change. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s investigation into Trump had appeared to be nearing a conclusion earlier this month after the former president was invited to testify before the grand jury.

Since then, two more witnesses have testified, including lawyer Robert Costello, who appeared on Trump’s behalf. On Monday, the grand jury heard testimony from David Pecker, the former chairman of the publisher of the National Enquirer who played a key role in the hush money payment.

A great gnashing of teeth over there at the moment. Several threads about it and I'm sitting here laughing my a*s off that fitzmas and indictmas has happened, all rolled into one...

9. Yes. Put us out of our misery now please.

If behind the scenes Democrat's only concern is how they can pressure Bragg and others in the other cases to delay delay delay, then avoid laying any charges, or even drop them, because they have concluded in their discussion circles with their corporate donors and Wall Street execs that the country would become too "unstable" and also the backlash would harm their chances in 2024....

.....JUST TELL US NOW AND AVOID ALL THIS ANGST!

But they won't because if we knew, we'd never let them get away with it.

Yes, Dem leaders are insane, but the rank and file is even more so, and the leaders know it. That you're being strung along is your own fault because, and you should face it because decent and civilized people have, you're just too loopy to be trusted. Better to let you have a glimmer of hope than to tell you the truth and risk cities being burned to the ground and violence to run rampant in the streets.

Frankly, I'm good with leftist scum burning down the leftist-run shithole cities.

I've got me and mine out of the line of fire and I'm well and truly over feeling sorry for folks too stupid to know that you don't shit in your own *******ed nest without consequences.

That reminds me of an article I saw quoted during the Mueller investigation. There was some line in it that indicated Mueller might be waiting until the 2018 midterms to drop some bombshell, and was timing it such that republicans wouldn't be able to recover.

In this case it is a Jury Month. A Jury Month can last up to five years.

Even that far in the future, he'll still be living rent free in the heads of all the DUm'Rats. They can't help themselves: he'll be the DUm'Rat bogey man centuries after he's passed on to his eternal reward.

Omaha Steve is going to be the only person still alive to witness the indictment.

The current new cycle features a Pecker and a Weiner.

Most of the networks have already been in a 1-2 punching-mode for awhile...  and it hasn't worked.

Pence has got to testify... while Trump is huddled in Mar-A-Lago...  Besides, Meadows must testify...  and sources say Bolton will say X, Y, and Z...  as Trump huddles in Mar-A-Lago...  Meanwhile, etc. etc.
