Following a hectic week of anticipating a potential indictment of 45th President Donald Trump, the grand jury which is responsible for deciding the indictment will not be meeting to discuss Trump’s case for the rest of the week. The Thursday meeting will consider a separate, unrelated case.
According to sources close to ABC7NY, the grand jury will be convening next week to consider indicting Trump on charges related to a 2016 payment of $130,000 that was paid to Stormy Daniels allegedly at the consent of Trump.
The grand jury is meeting on Thursday, however, to consider a separate case at noon. According to ABC7NY’s sources, the grand jury will not be considering Trump’s case on Thursday. On Monday, ABC7NY reports that they may consider another witness to come to testify.
The news of the delay comes after another delay took place on Wednesday when the jury suddenly canceled its meeting, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer.
Two sources told Fox News that District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) decided to cancel the grand jury meeting that was scheduled on Wednesday due to “major dissension” in the D.A.’s office.
One went as far as saying the problem is Mr. Bragg was having great difficulty convincing the grand jury on his charges due to the major weaknesses of his entire case. Sources also said that there was the possibility that Mr. Bragg chooses not to indict the current Republican presidential frontrunner.
As turmoil continues to persist within the Manhattan D.A.’s office, legal experts and President Trump are continuing to blast Bragg for the illogical and arduous legal case being brought.
Harvard legal expert Alan Dershowitz called the case against Trump ‘targeted injustice’.

“When I was coming of age in the 1950s Southern prosecutors would target civil rights workers and search for any possible violation of the law, no matter how technical. If they discovered or invented a violation, they would indict, prosecute, convict, and sentence the target,” Dershowitz explained. “That, precisely, is what we are now seeing with the Manhattan district attorney, Alvin Bragg, targeting the former president and current candidate, Donald Trump.”
“After spending months searching the criminal code for a law that Mr. Trump might be accused of violating, Mr. Bragg has apparently landed on a highly questionable campaign contribution provision that has never before been used in a comparable situation,” he continued. “All decent people, whether politically opposed to Mr. Trump (as I am) or supportive of his candidacy, should be concerned about this weaponizing of the prosecutor’s office for the political purpose of preventing a potential candidate from running for office.”
On Thursday morning, President Trump took to Truth Social to blast Bragg saying that no crime had taken place.
“Why won’t BRAGG drop this case?” Trump asked. “Everybody says there is no crime here. I did nothing wrong!”
“It was all made up by a convicted nut job with zero credibility, who has been disputed by highly respected professionals at every turn,” Trump said in reference to his former attorney Michael Cohen who has been convicted of perjury and has had his testimony rebuked multiple times.
“Bragg refuses to stop despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary,” Trump continued. “He is a Soros-backed animal who just doesn’t care about right or wrong no matter how many people are hurt. This is no legal system, this is the Gestapo, this is Russia and China, but worse, disgraceful!”
“Everybody knows I’m 100% innocent, including Bragg, but he doesn’t care,” Trump explained, adding, “He is just carrying out the plans of the radical left lunatics, our country is being destroyed, as they tell us to be peaceful!”
