There’s a buzz around New York City that Secret Service agents are preparing for a possible conviction in the high-profile ‘hush money’ case led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. This development has sparked questions about the impartiality of our legal system and the relentless pursuit of former President Trump by the Democratic party.
According to CBS News, an insider from the New York Department of Corrections revealed that preparations are in progress as we approach the trial’s closing arguments. The verdict could be out as early as this week.
JUST IN: Secret Service has reportedly met with local jail officials in New York to make possible preparations for Donald Trump behind bars.
Insane.

The report suggests that if Trump were to end up behind bars, corrections officers would be tasked with protecting any Secret Service personnel assigned to safeguard him. While it’s still unclear where Trump might serve his sentence, shorter sentences could potentially place him at Rikers Island prison which houses a separate wing for high-profile inmates.
Let’s delve into the charges against Trump. He is facing 34 felony charges brought forward by Bragg, a move that has drawn significant backlash from numerous respected legal scholars since its announcement last year. The Manhattan D.A. has used COVID-era policies to extend the statute of limitations on what is typically considered a misdemeanor—an administrative payment error—and escalated this charge to a felony under allegations of conspiracy to commit another crime; although, he hasn’t clarified what this other crime might be.
The dubious nature of this case was highlighted by former prosecutor Randy Zelin’s comments on CNN: “There is reasonable doubt all over this case,” he said. “Anytime a human being needs to make an important decision in life, if you have enough information, you go ahead. If not, you seek more—that’s reasonable doubt,” he added.
Despite widespread media coverage—even from traditionally left-leaning networks like CNN and MSNBC—it appears that Bragg’s witnesses have failed to provide compelling evidence. Questions have been raised about Judge Juan Merchan’s jury instructions. Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley expressed his concern in a recent post, stating that the fraud instruction is so generalized it could encompass any claim that the defendant sought to influence the election through his actions.
If Trump is convicted in this New York case, he could face over 134 years in prison. This case serves as a stark reminder of how far Democrats are willing to go in their attempts to tarnish the reputation of Republican leaders. The question that remains is: will justice truly be served, or will political bias continue to overshadow the proceedings?
