a crime. donald trump is set to appear before the new york court on tuesday, after a grand jury voted to indict him with a case involving hush money paid to an adult film star. the consequences could be far reaching as gabriel elizondo reports. after more than a week of intense speculation and anticipation, manhattan district attorney ivan bragg leaves his office in new york. having just made history minutes later, a spokesperson confirmed that a grand jury brag convened had voted to indict former president donald trump over alleged hush money to a former adult film star. and that prosecutors were working out the arrangements with trumps lawyers for the former president to turn himself into authorities. it wasn't long before a typically combative trump responded through a post on social media, right? trump calling the indictment an attack on our country, the lakes of which has never been seen before. stormy daniels and her alleged
8:03 pm
sexual encounter with donald trump is at the center of the criminal case against the former president. after she threatened to go public about the affair in the final days of trumps, 2016 presidential campaign trumps. then fixer michael cohen paid her a $130000.00 to keep quiet. cohen, who testified before the grand jury has said he made the payments at trump's direction, and in 2018 pleaded guilty to violating campaign finance was not revenge. right. what this is, is about accountability. i don't want to see any one, including donald trump indicted, prosecuted, convicted incarcerated, simply because i fundamentally disagree with them. this is all about accountability . he needs to be held accountable for his dirty deeds. trump has always denied the affair, and also initially denied any knowledge of the payment, but now says it took place as a legitimate legal expense ah.
8:04 pm
under new york law, it is the falsification of business records, not the payment itself. that would be trumps cr time. a misdemeanor and only of prosecutors can prove he made the payment and falsified records. specifically to hide the affair right from the voters or the i r s. would it be a felony or a more serious crime that could come with jail time. the source of occasion of records for the purpose of committing tax evasion would be the addition, specific crime to elevate falsification of business records from a misdemeanor to a felony. the exact charges against donald trump in the indictment are still under seal, have not made public. it's expected early next week. trump will arrive here in new york to turn himself into authorities. he'll then base
8:05 pm
a judge and then be released. trump is the 1st current or former president of the united states to ever face criminal charges. gabriel is on dough al jazeera, new york. you mean diamonds drawn strong opinions from americans across the political spectrum? not a which can do something wrong. you just, you should be just like everybody else. just think it, it's going to not get anywhere and it will come back to be bad on the democrat. i'm sick of the whole thing sick of the drop investigations of the biden investigation with get on with, with real problems, real issue. this is a crime that's happening right now. this should not be going on. i'm here to stand in front of him to defend him. if i get people i brag the teachers in we're live in washington dc for the laser reactions in u. s. capital. first we're going to go to new york or chris and salumi standing by
8:06 pm
outside the manhattan district attorney's office. so how are americans reacting to this in the 1st few hours of the news coming out? yes, in many ways the news was widely expected, but it wasn't expected to happen when it did so. many americans walk up to the headlines and really where you are. and the political spectrum is where people tend to think about the charges. democrats here in new york, it's so overwhelmingly democratic city. people are saying this is long overdue. i. they are happy to see the president brought up on charges. he's not popular here and his home city and hold the state. because this isn't overwhelmingly democratic city and state. on the other hand, there are republicans rallying behind the president and president trump from when
8:07 pm
word of a possible indictment 1st got out, has been claiming that this is a which kind of political persecution and using the news to rally up his base. and that seems to be working. the latest poll taken by fox news here in the united states show that the president's lead over other republicans who are expected to run against him for the nomination for the president and the next selection. ah, they are far behind him. in the pulls, he has increased his lead over these other candidates as he's now pulling out more than 50 percent support from republicans and who are hearing the words that he saying. and seeing this as a, as a distraction in which i know that the d, the indictment itself has, has been announced. of course, everybody's not desperate to know what is actually in those. and that, that indictment what the details are. tell us
8:08 pm
a little bit more about the case and obviously his possible defense right. so weren't rumors are swirling that there are more than 2 dozen charges in the indictment by law. the indictment is sealed until the defendant appears before the judge, but we're hearing some word now. there are some reports that the judge is allowing the da to make public, the indictment. and i think what that means, and i haven't had a chance to be fair to confirm this yet, but i think what we're hearing is that we may get wind of what those charges are before president trump. actually comes to the court house here to formally be arraigned on those charges and that is expected to happen on tuesday, but we may now with the judges permission to the district attorney, hear what those specific charges are. and of course, we know because of the witnesses who have been coming here to the court house
8:09 pm
behind me to testify before the grand jury that this case does involve those hush money payments made to the adult film star storm daniels. but we also know that hush penny payments are on their own, are not a crime. it is falsifying business documents that would be a misdemeanor and falsifying business documents to hide a bigger crime that could raise these charges to what's known as a felony till more serious crime. but all of this is speculation until we actually see the charges that the district attorney has laid out. and that hasn't happened yet, and that may be why the judge is saying go ahead release the charges lead people know because there's so much interest in this case. so much speculation in so much i historical context here as well. this is never happened before our president has never been charged. so we are an uncharted territory and there is a lot of interest no matter where you stand politically and how this case plays out
8:10 pm
. you chris, and i'm just saying, allowing this against the reuters news agency say, excuse me, a judge is osler's, the manhattan district attorney to disclose to the public that the grand jury has returned an indictment. in the case of former president, donald trump, that does make it sound a little bit as though we may not get the details about what is in that indictment as you were saying, until at legally the part of the legal process until he actually turns up on on tuesday, but for now, chris is salumi. thank you very much indeed for new york, we're going to go to chicago tansy, who's life for us in washington, d. c. as christine was pointing out there, a lot of the response that has been coming from voters. so far, it tends to be falling along a political lines. what is the political response to all of us? the political response that was things were members of congress is coming largely from social media. because in the hours proceeding, the leak of the, the, the pending indictment being being unsealed. congress went into recess for 2 weeks
8:11 pm
for passover and easter, which means i think a lot of rather relieved members of congress. particular republicans in the senate perhaps who don't have to face the press on capitol hill today to find out what that reaction is. instead, there certainly from the from house republicans where trump has that strong block of block block of support. we're seeing tweets, largely echoing trump's own arguments is a which sound it's all politically motivated. mardrey, taylor green, a key transporter, and the house. so she will travel to new york on tuesday to protest against against the indictment and democracy in the rule of law against the d. a. i was encouraging her supporters to go as well. so that's interesting. kevin mccarthy, the speaker of the house. talking about potential for investigations, congressional investigations in, into the, into the da. meanwhile, on the senate side, but we're not hearing much. mitch mcconnell, for example, they be the other senior republican leadership. clearly this, this group of both issues, this group of republicans were rather keen to see the end of the trump error. i
8:12 pm
haven't had the mid term losses and so on. but so we haven't had any, any comment from them as yet. the democrats, in, in the call in congress, it appears that there was a report that they were told about glutes. well that we saw a little bit, we've seen a little bit of that on social media, but that, that messages are usually more like justice will be, will be done. there is some grumbling on my husband for some time now amongst democrats there that this wasn't the indictment, but i wanted to see 1st, they'd rather the more serious charges of meddling in the election, having some role in the january 6. right. but rather those were, those were, those were the 1st on deck, because frankly, it's why we thought we haven't seen the indictments. so this is perhaps a more difficult, difficult charge to prove it. if it does get to the raised the level of, of a felony and the white house, joe biden on his way to mississippi to inspect tornado damage would not be drawn. he was asked pointedly, what do you say about these indictments? he said the easy has no colon. she had. thank you very much indeed. that's she

the statement of put in is that he decides on the deployment of nuclear weapons on a foreign soil in a sovereign country. and this happens only because we get under control of food and interesting, the very, very important mismatch here. when i was a put in a look, is that putting that on february just couple of days ago that russia deployed these weapons on the territory. but does not transfer it under control shameka and today will consent to repeatedly said that this weapon is mine, and that will control it. so these remains to be a very uncertain situation with very, very quickly growing risks that it might go out of control. russia have been violating the n p t clauses here, and at the same time dragging our country further informed, so there in the conflicts. that's why the police and some people will be took it
