Law enforcement officials in New York are making security preparations incase the former president (Donald Trump) ends up getting himself arrested & charged. In the next few hours he will probably have to make an appearance in a Manhattan courtroom. Barricades have been erected outside a New York court as the city prepares for Donald Trump to be charged over alleged hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign. It would be the first criminal case brought against a former US president EVER! & there have been so many punishable criminal actions by other President’s that you could of sworn they’d been charged over.
Crowds have already started to gather outside Trump Tower and Manhattan Criminal Court in New York, as well as Mr Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. On Saturday, Mr Trump urged followers on social media to protest against what he said was his looming arrest. So you can see why New York is on high alert with increased fears that a repeat of the violent scenes at Capitol Hill after his 2020 presidential defeat will fire up again but 10 fold. New York Mayor Eric Adams told reporters police were monitoring social media and keeping an eye out for “inappropriate actions” in the city but the New York Police Department have said that there are no known credible threats yet.
