TL;DR Summary

A grand jury in New York City is resuming proceedings in a criminal investigation of former President Donald Trump over a hush money payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 presidential campaign. Trump expects to be indicted as soon as Tuesday. Meanwhile, Trump is seeking to block the release of a special purpose grand jury report in Fulton County, Georgia, where he could be facing charges in a separate criminal case. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg told his staff that their safety is a "top priority" after Trump called on his supporters to protest his expected indictment. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy criticized the idea of criminally charging Trump but opposed a call by the former president for protests in New York over his expected indictment.
