FULL TRANSCRIPT
based on an old and fully debunked by
numerous other prosecutors fairy tale
the Far and Away leading Republican
candidate and former president of the
United States of America will be
arrested on Tuesday of next week protest
take our nation back now this case
centers around a 130 thousand dollar
hush money payment to adult film actress
Stormy Daniels on the eve of the 2016
presidential election President Trump's
former lawyer Michael Cohen you see in
the middle there pleaded guilty to his
role in that payment in 2018 he claims
it was meant to keep Daniels quiet about
an alleged Affair that Trump denies
Federal prosecutors have claimed the
former president and his business
reimbursed Cohen for that payment now of
course Trump is a leading contender in
the presidential race the front-runner
in the Republican primary he claims this
is yet another politically motivated
attack to prevent him from running in
2024. listen here
whether it's the Mar-A-Lago raid or the
unselect committee hoax the perfect
Georgia phone call it was absolutely
perfect or the stormy horse face Daniels
extortion plot
they're all sick
and its fake news
so Neil regarding Tuesday's potential
arrest in the expected indictment Trump
could be charged with falsifying
business records for reimbursing Cohen
under the guise of legal expenses but to
make that crime a felony Manhattan D.A
Alpha Bragg's prosecutors will have to
prove that Trump did that to conceal
another crime which in this case may be
an improper donation to his 2016
campaign in violation of state election
law Fox News reached out to the
Manhattan DA's office for comment
something they declined we do know the
DA's office reached out to law
enforcement about security plans
surrounding the courthouse this week
we'll send it back to you Neil
all right Nate thank you for all of that
Nate uh yeah so here's some extra detail
on what's going on here first of all you
could actually look on YouTube you type
into YouTube meet Kevin Donald Trump
Georgia phone call I cover the entire
phone call that phone call and I'm not
taking sides here I'm just saying as
neutral as possible was not a good phone
call it was not a good look it was not a
perfect phone call
it was bad it was basically Trump going
come on man what can we do to find 12
000 votes
yeah it's not good that's not perfect
okay anyway so let me give you some
detail about what's going on here so
basically here's what's going on while
Donald Trump has not been arrested yet
he's now confirming that yes he is
expected to be arrested on Tuesday in
connection with this Manhattan probe and
it's really sparking concerns that we're
going to see massive potentially Maga
protests on Tuesday much in a similar
manner of maybe a Jan six which Tuesday
the first is a literally just a one day
prior to the Federal Reserve potentially
crashing the economy on the 22nd
Wednesday when they have their fomc
meeting that's going to be a complete
disaster and it's also the 22nd the day
the coupon for the programs are building
your wealth expires it's gonna be a
crazy week I'll be live probably all day
because I can guarantee one thing it is
going to be entertaining as hell now
let's discuss some of the insight into
this so This arrest is believed to be
related to well it is related to
Manhattan district attorney the
Manhattan District Attorney's
investigation into these hush money
payments that were made to Stormy
Daniels in 2016. the hush money in
question is basically a hundred thirty
thousand dollars which trumps former
lawyer Michael Cohen had admitted to
paying Daniels potentially to keep her
quiet about an alleged affair with Trump
now Donald Trump has denied the affair
and accuses Daniels of extortion in 2018
Mr Cohen was charged in connection with
these payments to Daniels but Trump did
not face charges for his election or his
involvement in 2018. the reason for the
delay in pursuing Donald Trump at this
point potentially has to do with the tax
fraud investigation for Donald Trump
this is where Donald Trump faced about
1.6 million dollars in penalties because
of the result of a tax fraud
investigation involving the Trump
organization now that that tax fraud
investigation is complete in New York
the uh New York Department of Justice uh
and and the prosecutors essentially are
arguing they have enough resources now
to investigate the the this current case
this hush money case because the tax
case is closed so it's kind of like
they're doing one case at a time rather
than working on them at the same time
now remember in 2018 Michael Cohen
pleaded guilty stating that he worked in
coordination with Trump to silence
Daniels although the policy or the
justice department bars Federal
prosecutors from charging a city sitting
president with a crime since uh Donald
Trump hasn't been pursued while he was
in office and is now being pursued this
is basically a skeleton that's popping
up to haunt him now obviously you saw
Donald Trump's response to this and as
well I mean I don't need to reiterate
some of the comments he made about
Stormy Daniels but anyway Trump has also
criticized Michael Cohen uh which is
sort of a way of him separating himself
from Cohen and ultimately describes the
cases against him as a weaponization of
the judicial system to try to prevent
Donald Trump for running for president
in the 2024 now which he's already
announced now Manhattan District
Attorney General Alvin Bragg is the guy
leading this investigation he has a
history of focusing on cases obviously
involving Criminal Justice Reform but
also civil rights and it all started
with his idea and and this is very
questionable but it started with his day
one memo where he outlined a list of
crimes that they will not prosecute in
New York such as marijuana possession
Fair evasion
trespassing and even prostitution in
other words New York is willing to turn
a blind eye if you just hop the subway
fare turnstile because we don't want to
keep punishing criminals this sounds
very similar to the kind of nonsense
that's happening in San Francisco where
San Francisco is essentially the car
break-in capital of the world and law
enforcement essentially do nothing even
Elon Musk on Twitter questions are the
police even allowed to enforce the law
in San Francisco anyway the shift in
focus from Trump's alleged practice of
overvaluing assets for his real estate
properties to prop up his net worth to
prop up his ability to to get financing
or win deals has led to massive
investigations in New York but that
shift is now moving over to this hush
money issue and potential uh campaign
donation issues tax fraud case which
again recently concluded had to do with
a 15-year potential scheme of avoiding
paying taxes on on the valuations of
certain properties but potentially also
had to do with employee benefits like
giving employees a fancy cars apartments
or paying for their schools uh and then
not paying having the employees pay
income taxes on those so those are
deemed to be there there are a lot of
things that play here right there's the
hush money payment there's the
overvaluing of assets then there's the
potentially overpaying employees without
paying income taxes on those there's a
lot of this this is the next phase in
all of this and the trials end and that
tax fraud case really now is allowing
this potential indictment which is
looming for March 22nd and you saw
Donald Trump himself now saying he's
talking about yep gonna be arrested on
March 22nd at the same time now the
Secret Service and FBI are already
conducting security sweeps in
anticipation of what is expected to be a
pretty dramatic Tuesday that is a March
sorry uh March the 22nd let me make sure
March 22nd March 22nd 2023 is that
Wednesday or Tuesday that's Wednesday
sorry to Wednesday so Wednesday is the
big day but anyway uh they're also
trying to evaluate how are they going to
arrest Donald Trump do they handcuff him
I mean technically to be arrested just
means you're not free to leave right
entertainment you don't technically need
to wear handcuffs but politically seeing
Donald Trump in handcuffs would be a
field day for Democrats so you can bet
Democrats are calling for the field day
of handcuffs and the media spectacle on
the flip side no handcuffs would
potentially be seen as respectful to a
former president which of course people
who don't like Donald Trump are like he
deserves the horseback uh but it's very
interesting what what implications does
this also have for our International
Community to see a former president in
handcuffs but anyway if Trump is
indicted he would be required to go
through the standard legal booking
process that means being processed that
means mug shot
fingerprints processing then you get
indicted which it's important to know
what an indictment actually is on
indictment is simply the presentation of
charges you stand before a judge and a
judge reads out
Donald Trump you are being indicted for
the following alleged claims count one
broad count two this than the tax of it
whatever it is right those are the
things that Donald Trump would be
indicted under now this does not
actually mean that Donald Trump would
end up being in jail that's because
Donald Trump could via the discretion of
the judge be released on his own
recognizance RoR and the idea of that is
hey as basically you post bail you'll
get released uh and you need to show up
to court so uh that's I I've merged two
things here I'm skipping over some
details here RoR doesn't generally
require a bail payment uh bail as you
promising to come back uh to court both
of these are a promise to come back to
court sorry I'm kind of glossing over
that a little bit because I don't think
that so terribly matters the point is
Donald Trump probably will not be in
jail because jail is where you go when
you're being held for a court case and
jail is where you go after you you are
punished and your sentence is less than
a year prison is where you go when your
sentence is more than a year to give you
a little bit of a detail on that but
clearly we would expect some form of
massive political uh and protest Fallout
from uh this this drama uh now let's
take a brief listen over here just to
see what some of this commentary is who
had really just kind of put out the
rumors the former president trying to
take the offense on this say it's going
to happen it's unfair it's a Witch Hunt
but it's on for Tuesday we'll see in
lower Manhattan all right in the
meantime here the latest yeah okay
there's no no more contents in other
words basically yes uh the the 22nd is
when the charges are expected he said to
use it too is everybody messing up on on
the dates here or is it is it going to
be Tuesday are they moving into the 21st
now I'm very curious did I get the date
right uh so because I'm pretty sure
they said the 22nd
but let's see here oh no Tuesday okay
all right well let me clarify that okay
well that that gives us two fantastic
days here so apparently it's the 21st
for the Trump arrest so I want to be
very clear about that the 21st for the
Trump arrest and then the next day is
the Fed meeting on the 22nd and that's
also where that coupon expiration sits
okay thank goodness separate days so
it's going to be a very entertaining
week
