The Hill:

A Fulton County grand jury has appeared to hand up at least one indictment.

A camera inside the courtroom showed Fulton County Superior Court Robert McBurney receiving a stack of papers just before 9 p.m. shortly after reports emerged that the Trump grand jury was voting.

No details about the stack of papers were given. McBurney handed the stack of papers to clerk Che' Alexander.

Fulton County grand jury approves 10 indictments in Trump case, paperwork shows

The grand jury's certified to the clerk's office in Fulton County it approved 10 indictments on Monday, according to paperwork signed on camera.

The paperwork indicates the grand jury didn't vote against any of the indictments presented to it on Monday by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ team.



NBC News:

The court clerk wrote on a certificate that the grand jury has returned 10 indictments.

quote:

A grand jury investigating whether Trump and his allies attempted to interfere with Georgia’s 2020 presidential election has delivered 10 indictments, but it is not yet clear which individuals were charged.

quote:

Judge Robert McBurney joked with the press after signing off on indictments from the jury — without reading names of defendants.

"That's it."

So it is now a question of who has been indicted.

It is not clear.


quote:

We are expecting a dozen or so defendants to be indicted, if the grand jury has voted to indict.
The defendants include former US president Donald Trump.

The document will now be docketed and will become available to the public any moment.

The Georgia grand jury that investigated possible interference in the 2020 election by Donald Trump and his allies recommended indicting over a dozen people, the jury foreperson said Tuesday — a list she said "might" include the former president.

Headline should read "Atlanta Grand Jury." It's an island inside the rest of Georgia.

A sad day for the country. Trump has been denied basic procedural due process in Fulton County.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., appeared to cast doubt over Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' investigation of Trump during a Fox News interview tonight.

"Are we gonna let county prosecutors start prosecuting the president of the United States -- the former president of the United States?" Graham asked during an interview with host Pete Hegseth.

The South Carolina Republican also took aim at Democratic prosecutors more broadly.

"The American people can decide whether they want him to be president or not. This should be decided at the ballot box, not a bunch of liberal jurisdictions trying to put the man in jail," Graham said. "They’re weaponizing the law in this country, they’re trying to take Donald Trump down and this is setting a bad precedent."

Finally all 4 indictments are done and that’s the end of it.

Discovery , procedural delays and none of the these 4 go to trial (if it ever does) prior to 2024 election

Month from now no one will give two s**t about these

Cute. Glad it’s a laughing matter to others as well.

Hillary Clinton expresses 'profound sadness' over indictments

In an interview on MSNBC, Hillary Clinton said she feels "profound sadness" that the U.S. has a former president who has faced indictments "that went right to the heart of whether or not our democracy would survive."

In response to Rachel Maddow's question about whether she feels any satisfaction, she said the only satisfaction could be that "the system is working" and "justice is being pursued." Clinton referred to Trump's actions on Jan. 6 as having the hallmarks of "authoritarian dictatorial kinds of leaders."

The 2016 Democratic nominee also took aim at the GOP.

"I hope that we won't have accountability just for Donald Trump, and if there are others named in these indictments along with him for their behavior, but we'll also have accountability for a political party that has just thrown in with all of the lies and the divisiveness and the lack of any conscience about what was being done to the country," she said.

Everyone involved in these kangaroo courts deserves to be tried for treason, with the death penalty on the table.
