Grand Jury CNN Was So Hopeful Would Indict Trump Ends Quietly With No Charges

Fact checked

CNN has been pumping its audience full of hopium, desperately hyping the Manhattan District Attorney grand jury that was impaneled to find dirt on Trump. Unforutnately for CNN, the grand jury found nothing at all and CNN and their partners in mainstream media have egg on their faces yet again.

Two successive Manhattan District Attorneys, Cyrus Vance, Jr. and Alvin Bragg, have dug for dirt on Donald Trump, looking for something – anything – on which to indict him. And they have both failed spectaculary. The Washington Post:

A six-month grand jury that was convened late last year to hear evidence against Donald Trump was set to expire this week, closing a chapter in a lengthy criminal investigation that appears to be fizzling out without charges against the former president, people familiar with matter said.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), who took office in January, inherited a probe launched by his predecessor, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., who was convinced that there was a case against Trump for crimes related to manipulating the value of property assets to secure tax advantages or better loan rates.

The grand jury was convened in November with a mandate to hear evidence against the former president. But the decision on whether to finish the presentation and ask the panel to vote on charges would ultimately fall on Bragg, who decided to pause the process, according to people with knowledge of the situation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss information that has not been declared publicly.

Nobody wants to be publicly associated with this disappointment for Trump-haters.

The New York Times adds:

The grand jury’s expiration at the end of the month does not preclude prosecutors from impaneling another jury, but the developments underscore the reduced possibility that Mr. Trump will face charges under Mr. Bragg, who along with several other prosecutors had concerns about proving the case. Some people close to the inquiry believe that it will not result in an indictment of the former president unless a witness cooperates unexpectedly — a long shot in an investigation that has been running for more than three years.

In recent weeks, Mr. Bragg’s prosecutors have issued a few additional subpoenas that indicate they are continuing to investigate but have not found a new path to charging Mr. Trump.

Donald Trump must be the most-investigated real estate tycoon in the history of the United States. The fact that dedicated poetical political enemies with vast resources at their disposal have come up with nothing is a testament to his probity. In a field notorious for questionable practices when it comes to seeking permits and dealing with rapacious inspectors of various stripes, Donald Trump evidently has kept his hands clean.

Don’t ever expect an apology from his many critics who have assured us for years that he is a crook.

  1. LOW JOE with less than 30% approval ratings the lowest by ANY president in over 70 years 1950 would seem to mean the GOP is back in power again

  2. I doubt CNN would stand the same scrutiny And there better be some avenue now for Trump to sue them into bankruptcy otherwise the law is not just an ass, but an evil evil unjust ass.

  3. Regardless, the country is denigrating. Doesn’t seem to matter that everything is coming to light. The country continues to fall apart. “order out of chaos” So I think more disorder will continue, until something comes along to “Save us”
    it is like a doctor prescribing poison to a child to make it sick, then the doctor stops prescribing the child the poison and the child gets better, the parents think the Doctor is a saint that healed their child. Now they trust the doctor without question.

    • I think there’s more going on behind the scenes than we know about it – that’s how politics works. Trump is very subtle and doesn’t broadcast what he’s going to do, he just does it. He said that at start of his presidency. IMO we haven’t seen the last of him, never underestimate Trump is said by those who know him. Just my 2 cents.
