BREAKING: Trump Responds After Grand Jury Delays Again; “I Have Gained Such Respect For This Grand Jury”
Former President Donald Trump released a new statement to Truth Social Wednesday after news broke that the grand jury hearing evidence in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against Trump would be delaying its proceedings until next week without a vote.
Applauding the jury, Trump expressed his approval of the delay, writing, “I have gained such respect for this grand jury, and perhaps even the grand jury system as a whole.”
“THERE IS NO CASE HERE. DROP THIS SICK WITCH HUNT NOW!” Trump continued in his post.
Fox broke the news that the grand jury wouldn’t reconvene until next week Tuesday afternoon, citing multiple sources with knowledge of the situation.
Fox News reported:
The grand jury hearing evidence in the Manhattan District Attorney’s investigation into former President Donald Trump will not sit on the case again this week, multiple sources told Fox News Tuesday.
A court administration source, and others, told Fox News the grand jury, which was expected to reconvene Wednesday, is done with the case until next week.
The secret grand jury wrapped its proceedings Monday afternoon without voting on Trump’s case, sources told Fox News on Monday. Those proceedings came after they were canceled twice last week by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.
Over the weekend, Trump floated the possibility that Bragg had already “dropped the case” against him.
“I think they’ve already dropped the case,” Trump told reporters Saturday after holding a campaign rally in Waco, Texas. “It’s a fake case. Some fake cases, they have absolutely nothing.”
