Former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, though the exact charge or charges are still unknown. The indictment is under seal, but is believed to involve the hush money payment his former lawyer Michael Cohen made to Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election. Trump and his allies have already responded to the indictment, calling it “Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history.” The arraignment is expected to take place next week, raising questions about the legality of hush money payments and the implications of a former president being indicted.
