no one is above the law, including former presidents. be clear on that point ultimately will come down to what happens in that courtroom. 12 jurors one defendant table of prosecutors, and if they find him guilty, he's going to be a convicted felon for donald, since we're talking about convicted felons c on tuesday, pal. i hear another shot. you did more shots. just please hurry up here. you coming ? they're coming. just try. okay try to stay quiet. i don't know what's going on there. um we're pleased with this outcome and appreciate the judge and jury's thoughtful handling of this case. hi from london. this is cnn newsroom. max foster and bianca nobilo. it is friday, march 31st nine am here in london for a, um in new york, where a grand jury has voted to indict donald trump on what

sources say are more than 30 counts related to business fraud , is expected to appear at the manhattan courtroom on tuesday. the grand jury has been hearing evidence about payments to adult film star stormy daniels to keep quiet about an alleged sexual encounter with trump. the former president posted on truth social . this is an attack on our country, the likes of which has never been seen before. former trump attorney michael cohen went to prison for tax fraud and campaign finance violations related to the hush money payments. he says trump should be held to the same standard. this isn't about vindication. this is about accountability. this is about the adage that no one is above the law. this is also about that. whatever laws that sent me to prison. should send him to prison. we're all supposed to be looked at in the eyes of the law. the same right lady justice wears the blindfold . it's not supposed to matter

you know about your race, religion, creed color, whether your former president, not if you break the law, you have to be held accountable. more now from cnn's senior crime and justice reporter katelyn polantz years of investigation and several weeks of closely watching a grand jury in new york. it's resulted in the first ever case criminal case against a former president of the united states. donald trump is now charged with several criminal charges in new york related to his business empire and potential hush money payments that he may have endorsed that we know that his personal attorney paid out to a porn star as he was running for president in 20. the 16. it is not exactly clear what these charges are at this time. even trump himself doesn't know of them, but we do know and we have confirmation tonight from both his attorneys and from the manhattan district attorney alvin bragg that donald trump has been charged. he has

been contacted and that he needs to get himself from florida, where his estate is to new york city so that he can be arrested and processed in the court system and potentially face trial. so right now, what is happening is trump. is expected to appear on tuesday of next week in court, he will be processed like any other criminal defendant. it may be a hectic and chaotic scene in manhattan, either in or outside of that courthouse with a lot of additional security, but his photographs will be taken. he will be fingerprinted. he will appear before a judge. he will be read his charges and he will be able to enter a plea right now. the expectation is that he will plead not guilty and progress toward trial. but that is where we are right now. now here in this new york case, as he faces these charges at the same time, there are ongoing criminal investigations that donald trump still faces and has not been charged in in georgia, a state case related to the end of his presidency. the january

6th attack on the u. s capital, as well as to federal criminal cases that grand juries in washington, d. c have been actively investigating and pursuing very high ranking witnesses to tell them their stories of what happened what they heard. and of with trump what their interactions with the former president were like those relating both to january 6th and the keeping of classified documents at mar-a-lago, his resort in florida after he left the presidency. he hasn't been charged in those they are quite mature investigations and donald trump is facing quite a lot of legal risk there that he is trying to stand down as well as he is going to be moving forward . as this case progresses in new york once we finally see the charges, and it is for a judge. katelyn polantz cnn washington. donald trump and his most vocal supporters in congress have said very little to refute the apparent facts of this case. instead, they argued that the indictment is politically motivated and without legal merit, take a listen to

republican senator lindsey graham. this is legal. budo you've got a misdemeanor that's been made of felony. nobody in the history of new york city has ever been prosecuted under this theory, except for donald j. trump. this case will follow, like a cheap suit under legal scrutiny. give the president some money to fight this bull. this is going to destroy america . we're going to fight back at the ballot box. we're not going to give in. how does this end? sean trump wins in court and he wins the election. that's how this wins. cnn's christian homes, has the latest from washington. sources close to the former president. tell us that donald trump and his advisers down at mar-a-lago were blindsided by the timing of this indictment. now for the last two weeks, i've been talking to a number of people close to the former president, who said they were ready for this potential indictment. essentially they were on pins and needles. but

recent media reports saying that the grand jury was going to go on hiatus that they wouldn't be meeting about this hush money payments case that made them believe that one they had some more time but to some of them. some advisers to the former president believed that maybe d a alvin bragg was actually reconsidering bringing an indictment. so right now they are coming back out. they have been swinging. we can see that former president trump is on the offense. he has said that this is a witch hunt a hoax. he has blamed democrats. he has linked alvin bragg, a democrat, to joe biden. this was something that we expected in something we expect to see more of. we also expect to hear from many of trump's allies who will likely flood the airways attacking democrats as well as attacking the grand jury and the d a himself important to note, of course, that a grand jury made this decision to indict not alvin bragg. but that is not going to stop trump's team from attacking him as part of their plan. now, the big question is how to get the former president to new york. we know there have been talks about making it some

sort of media spectacle. but in reality, many of the aides and advisers we talked to said that it's really going to be up to the secret service and up to the nypd. what this looks like. this is an unprecedented event. two other former u. s president who has his own secret service detail coming into downtown new york. so that is what they're looking at now how to get him in and out of the city and then what he's going to say afterwards who he's going to say it to and win. kristen holmes, cnn washington. another person who disagrees with the indictment is donald trump's former vice president, mike pence. he spoke exclusively with cnn's wolf blitzer. i think the unprecedented indictment the former president of the united states on a campaign finance issue. is an outrage. and it appears. for millions of americans. mean nothing more than a political prosecution that's driven by a prosecutor who literally ran for office on a pledge. to indict the former

president when you have an attorney general in new york manhattan, d a. that targeted one particular american in their campaigns. i think that offends the notion of the overwhelming majority of the american people who believe in fairness, who believe in equal treatment before the law, and this appears to be just one more example. wolf. of the kind of two tiered justice system that the american people have had enough of. joining me now from washington, cnn political commentators, democratic strategist maria cardona and republican strategist alice stewart. thank you both so much for joining me this morning, maria. let's begin with you just your reaction to the historical jurisprudential and political significance of this indictment. yeah it is jaw dropping bianca and i think that we all have to take a step back and wait until we understand

what is actually in the indictment. i know that it is overwhelming from a to look at this from a political standpoint , from a historical standpoint from a legal standpoint. but until we actually take a look and see what's in it, we can't really judge and measure what the outcome is going to be what we do know right now, bianca is that this was an indictment that didn't come from the d. a alvin bragg that didn't come from democrats and liberals. it came from a grand jury that is made up. of everyday, hardworking, conscientious americans from all walks of life. who were presented evidence from over five years of work and decided that there was more than enough to move forward with an indictment of a former president of the united states and the d. a is not dumb. he understands

that everything is on the line for him and that he is not going to go forward with a case that he doesn't believe is absolutely completely solid. so all of this hype and screaming out of the top of their lungs from republicans about how unfair this is, i think is just another attempt to let donald trump off the hook. they are his co conspirators. they are people who have never held him to account they have always been afraid to, because he they know he commands. the maga base, which he still does, and it's shameful for them to just dismiss this out of hand without taking a look at what the actual charges are, and alice, as maria rightly points out so much that we don't know and much to digest , but can you give us a sense of the spectrum of reaction that we're seeing from republicans at this stage? yeah sure. and i agree with my different maria on that point is that we actually

do need to wait and find out more details in terms of what the actual evidence is. and what are the documents? and what is the supporting information that really allows the grand jury to go forward with this indictment , but based on what we see right now? this is not right. this is unfair, and some have even called this un american. i have spoken with many republicans and reading our accounts by many republicans, and they view this as an extreme overreach by political opponent of donald trump. and you can't get much more polar opposite in the republican party right chief 20l ron desantis, and both of them have a similar take on this donald trump. ah! his response to this was this is a weaponization of the justice system in order to attack a political rival, ron desantis, the governor of florida, says

this is a weaponization of the legal system to advance and political agenda. that is how republicans are seeing this and there is no way you're going to change their minds. this is what donald trump is saying. this is what is, uh, friends and the media are saying and this trickles down. members of congress. are fully in step with this line of thinking because they are, uh, seeing it for what it is. and this is a d. a that ran and campaigned on saying that this case would be a top priority for him and this case, which was passed over by the federal election commission, as well as the department of justice, because they didn't see this was worth moving forward on he take it took it upon himself to move forward and he is a strong democrat. this will be in go before a jury and a very liberal district in new york, and many republicans view this as nothing more than an attempt

to prevent donald trump from moving forward in 2024. i hate to say this to them. this is going to embolden his supporters and look as a republican who would love nothing more than donald trump to leave the political arena so we can nominate someone that is less toxic than him. i would just love nothing more to see him leave. this is going to embolden him, and i fear it will help him in the primary process. but again, this will be detrimental in a general election. maria taking into consideration what alice is saying there about emboldening trump supporters and also the most influential figures in the republican party , adding their weight to these claims that this is a political witch hunt. how concerned are you about increased political acrimony, possibly demonstrations or even violence resulting from this? oh absolutely, incredibly concerned about that bianca and the sad part about that is republicans. not only don't seem to care, but

they are. they are. they are pouring fuel on that fire, starting with donald trump, who is the one who called for protests who was the one who talked about death and destruction. if this indictment came down, who is the one? let's remember who was the one who emboldened the inside the insurgency that happened on january 6th. and by the way, let's see when that indictment comes down and let's see if republicans also try to put that aside, saying that that is just strictly political. you know, donald trump is in a world of legal hurt. and the more that republicans try to make sure that he is continues to be off the hook that could continue, the more that they try to make excuses for him saying that this is a witch hunt. well, you know what a witch hunt is actually appropriate when there is a witch and donald trump is the one who brought all of this.

onto himself. and if you look at michael cohen, the one who actually went to jail for doing everything that trump told him to do in this case, the one that that is the coming down with this indictment, you know, he talked about how everything that he did. he did because donald trump told him to do that. and let's remember that he went to jail under the justice department of donald trump. and so all of these issues are the same issues that are alive and well in this and indictment. sources say that there are more than 30 charges in that indictment. and again. i want to remind my good friend alice, this was not something that alvin bragg decided to indict on . he's simply put together, the grand jury presented the evidence, and this is a grand jury made up of conscientious everyday americans who saw that evidence they are not democrats . they are not liberals. they

are not anti trumpers. they are everyday americans doing their job. looked at this evidence and said yes, there is more than enough here to move forward. and you know what else? bianca you know what else? this process has proven that no one is above the law, not even a former president of the united states. well alice stewart and maria cardona. i wish we had more time to talk specifically on that last point in the effect this is having on americans perceptions of their own constitution in themselves. the fact that someone running for president can be facing criminal charges, but thank you both so much. thank you so much. another american is in russian custody right now. this time, a correspondent for the wall street journal who was based in moscow, covic is accused of spying russia's main security service. the fsb, says that he was trying to obtain state secrets. he was taken into custody in yekaterinburg and russian court says that he will be detained until late may. the wall street journal is owned by

news corp and dow jones, which says that it's working around the clock to secure us. covic is release. the dow jones chief executive called the arrest and extremely disturbing development and said that we also vehemently deny the claims made by russian officials. the white house is also denouncing the arrest. espionage charges are ridiculous . the targeting of american citizens by russian government is unacceptable. we condemn the detention of mr covic in the strongest in the strongest terms. we also condemn the russian government's continued targeting and repression of journalists. this arrest ratchets up already high tensions between russia and the us cnn's matthew trance reports from moscow. wall street journal news of the arrest was brief on russian state television reporter from the wall street

journal was arrested on suspicion of espionage for the united states, the news anchor announces avicii reads now faces 20 years in prison. he was in the russian city of yekaterinburg, 1100 miles from moscow that russia's federal security service, the former kgb say they terminated the illegal activity of the accredited journalist. they claim he was on a mission from america to accumulate classified evidence on russia's military industrial complex. at a brief court appearance in moscow. the case was designated top secret. evan the 31 year old journalist, was remanded in custody for nearly two months. a lawyer trying to represent says he was excluded from the proceedings. don't know how long it took three or 15 minutes, and that's it. after that, i assume evan has already been taken away from here. we

don't know anything. the arrest comes against the backdrop of appalling us russia relations. with washington leading international support for ukraine against russia's invasion. has already won us citizens jailed in russia to for espionage paul whelan detained in 2018 serving a 16 year sentence. have anything to say, and it's been just a few months since us basketball star britney griner imprisoned in moscow on contentious drug charges was swapped for notorious arms smuggler viktor bout's held for years in u. s jail. the russian foreign ministry says there's no question of another prisoner swap at this time. the wall street journal says it vehemently denies the allegations against their reporter and say they're seeking his immediate release. but russian officials are doubling down, but it creates him under

the cover of journalism. this person was involved in a completely different activity. there are lots of reports that he had accreditation. therefore he's a journalist. no no, no. this is what he claims to be. does not bode well for a case threatening to plunge us russian relations to new debts and to ruin the life of this young american reporter. matthew chance, cnn moscow cnn's scott mclean is closely following this story, and this is the first time since the cold war that we've seen in american journalists accused of spying by russia. what do we know? this story is remarkable for its rarity. first and foremost, is the first time that an american journalist in russia has been arrested on espionage charges since 1986 6 since the cold war since before the breakup of the soviet union. and so in that case, the journalists who was arrested his name was nick daniel off, he worked for u. s news and world report, and he

actually spent only a matter of weeks behind bars rather than months or years, and he said after his release that were it not for the intervention and, in his words very deep and personal interest of then president ronald reagan. he would have spent a heck of a lot more time in there and key to his release was the prisoner swamp of a russian who had been recently arrested in new york on espionage on espionage charges there. the timing in this case is quite interesting because it was less than a week ago, actually that the us announced it had formally charged a russian citizen with spying with espionage. he was using a fake brazilian identity to attend university in washington, d. c. one potential wrinkle there is that this man isn't actually in u. s custody right now. he's actually in brazilian custody where he had been arrested on fraud charges there. the kremlin spokesperson dmitry peskov. he was asked about this yesterday when he was asked whether this was a tip for tad or this was

retaliation. he said. he didn't have anything to say. but in previous answers, he had said that look in his view, herskovitz had been caught red handed. the russian foreign ministry also said that at this point it is far too early to talk about. any kind of a prisoner swap. prisoner exchange if you ask the family, paul wheel and of course, another american who has been arrested on espionage charges. he spent more than four years behind bars and, frankly, a statement from his brother yesterday didn't seem all that optimistic about his prospects, saying quote. it doesn't seem that the white house does not seem to have found a way to resolve cases like paul whelan's of people who arrested for spying. scott mclean, thank you so much for coming up. britain's king charles makes history during his trip to germany by live in hamburg as he concludes his first state visit as monarch. last signs of progress is pope francis remains in the hospital receiving treatment for respiratory infection will update you on the 86 year old qantas health. tech works hard

the 86 year old pontiff is receiving antibiotics for bronchitis infection. former us president donald trump is expected to surrender next tuesday in new york city after he was indicted on what sources say are more than 30 counts related to business fraud. a few dozen supporters gathered outside trump's florida home after the news broke late thursday. details of the charges remain sealed for the latest. here's cnn's along a train in washington. trump's team is scrambling. they were totally caught off guard on thursday, and even though they had been expecting a potential indictment for some time, they didn't think it was going to come this soon. now one of trump's advisers told me shortly after the indictment that they were blindsided by the timing they believed, like much of the media have been reporting on wednesday that the grand jury would be breaking for the religious holidays and potential indictment when income until mid april. but in recent days, i

would argue that the trump team had increasingly began to question whether they're manhattan district return. his case was falling apart. we saw donald trump himself right on truth right on truth social just hours before the indictment that he is. quote gained such respect for the new york grand jury and believed that they were perhaps reconsidering an indictment, which obviously was not the case and just to take a step back as much as we've seen donald trump lean into his own defense and try to project confidence that will come out on top at the end of this, including in the statement that he released shortly after learning of the indictment. this is really a jarring moment for him. he now has to go through the process of getting arrested and getting fingerprinted. and while trump himself and his team believe that indictment will ultimately help him politically, he doesn't want to be indicted. this is a point that his advisers acknowledged to me over the past several weeks over and over again. it also reminds me of reporting did on donald trump during impeachment. he did not want to have impeached president on his resume, regardless of how much it may have routed his face behind him, and regardless of whether his advisors and others

thought that it would benefit him. politically in the long run. now what he's facing, though, is not an impeachment. it's a criminal indictment, and he's virtually no control over how this legal process will play out. elena treen, cnn washington . for more legal analysis. i'm joined now by bernarda via nova , a criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor in new york. it's great to have you on the program. thanks so much for joining us. thank you for having me bianca. so let's begin with a simple question. what is next? now in this legal process? well the next step in this legal process for donald trump is that he's going to have to surrender, meaning that he will have to come from whether it's full order or wherever he situation situated to new york, and when he comes to new york he is going to be presented in front of a judge, but before he's even presented in front of a judge, he has to go to the rest process, which means that he has to be fingerprinted and photographed known as a mug shot has to be taken from him. also

he will be given a new york state identification number, because now he is a person has gone. into the rest process once he goes before a judge, a judge would notify him of what his charges are. the official indictment will be unsealed so he will know whether he's facing just misdemeanor charges or misdemeanor and felony charges. the charges will be read out loud to him if he chooses to, and from there, he has an opportunity to either plead guilty. or not guilty, and then the judge has the ultimate determination of whether to release him on his own rick continents, which is probably highly likely because it's a crime that is non violent, so after that, we'll get another court date. uh actually few court days to determine whether they'll be hearings and motions, but this is the first that in a long, drawn out legal process criminal legal process for the former president. um what else would we expect to see at the arraignment reportedly next tuesday, who will be presiding? might there be cameras? what more can you tell us? so when

new york is not automatic that cameras are allowed in the courtroom, the judge has to make the determination whether he will allow cameras in the courtroom to photograph or videotape or do one or the other because it's not automatic and maybe possible that he may just allow one photograph for and one videographer, but it's all going to be to the discretion of the judge because, of course, donald trump's camp and the defense attorneys need to preserve the record and say that the unnecessary publicity may be able to determine and terms of make it highly unlikely that he'll get a fair trial in new york. but the reality is that he is the former president, so it's going to be highly unlikely that anyone will be able to sit on a jury and have not heard about this case. but aside from that, it's going to be a quick proceeding normal than five or 10 minutes is very quite common . hundreds overy mystic place in new york on a daily basis. and bernard a further benefit of our international viewers. constitutionally there would be

nothing to prohibit donald trump for continuing to run for president. facing these charges. that is correct that this point he is presumed innocent and what he has is open charges. he hasn't been convicted of anything so he can still run for president with an open indictment. but if convicted, the former president would be facing jail time. that is correct. so if former president donald trump is convicted of a misdemeanor, the most he can faces one year incarceration if he is convicted of a felony, the most he can faces four years incarceration. but i'll have to say based on my experience of having been a prosecutor here in new york for 13 years and a criminal defense attorney that is highly unlikely that any judge on these charges that we presume of falsifying business records that he will be sentenced to any period of incarceration on these charges that we think think he's going to be facing in order via nova. thank you so much for joining us
