MSNBC just reported that Trump posted on Truth Social that he will be indicted and is scheduled to appear in court in Miami on Tuesday. No other confirmation. Anyone here have access to Truth?

Eta: found the post  
Page 1: The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax, even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is “secured” by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time.

Page 2: I have been summoned to appear at the Federal Courthouse in Miami on Tuesday, at 3 PM. I never thought it possible that such a thing could happen to a former President of the United States, who received far more votes than any sitting President in the History of our Country, and is currently leading, by far, all Candidates, both Democrat and Republican, in Polls of the 2024 Presidential Election. I AM AN INNOCENT MAN!

Page 3: This is indeed a DARK DAY for the United States of America. We are a Country in serious and rapid Decline, but together we will Make America Great Again!

Assuming this is true, it’s going to be a long few days.

ETA: I can’t wait to see the indictment charges.

It’s not. He’s doing the same thing he did with the “I’m going to be arrested on Wednesday” post a few months back - he wants people to show up at the courthouse and protest so as to stoke his ego, and then when nothing happens that day it’ll be “proof” that he scared the Deep State into backing down.

I’m not so sure. He gave a date and time. It sounds like he was ordered to appear.

Yeah, NBC confirms the news.

ETA: any others? I think we’re all probably watching the same tv show.

ETA2: CNN says they have sources confirming. As does FOX.

I’m assuming this is a little bit of a joke, but, to be clear, it’s used as a diminutive in all Slavic languages (that I know of.) Czech in her case, of course.

ETA: Back to the more exciting news.

CBS News broke in to _Jeopardy!_ in Boston, so it sounds legit.

I’ll break open the champagne once a “guilty” verdict comes through. This is better than nothing, but I’m so jaded that this means rather little to me.
