The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/23/2023):

3:05pm- On Saturday, former President Donald Trump revealed that he expects to be arrested for hush money payments disturbed to adult film actress Stormy Daniels in 2016—though, no arrest has yet been made. In his latest National Review report, Andrew C. McCarthy writes: “Turns out the state grand jury in Manhattan, which is investigating former president Trump’s Stormy Daniels escapade, will not convene this afternoon. The grand jurors, whose proceedings occur in afternoons…had been on ‘standby,’ waiting for prosecutors to tell them whether they’d be needed today. It is unclear whether, in keeping them on standby, Bragg’s office contemplated presenting testimony from one or more additional witnesses, or asking the grand jurors to vote on an indictment… Based on experience, moreover, we can deduce that Bragg has misgivings because he has already moth-balled the investigation at least once, over a year ago. He resuscitated it under pressure from anti-Trump progressives and a pair of disgruntled prosecutors who quit over his refusal to move forward.” You can read more about McCarthy’s assessment of Trump’s supposedly pending indictment here: https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/whats-going-on-in-braggs-grand-jury-investigation-of-trump/
