Well, folks, they did it. And boy did they fake me out.
Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States and currently the leading Republican candidate for President, has been indicted in Manhattan.
Yes, I know I told you the grand jury was taking a surprise month off. They tricked me too.
Anyway, here are the details.
BREAKING: NY grand jury votes to indict Trump.

Trump Indicted
Trump has made history again as the first President ever to face criminal charges. Yes, that’s hard to believe, given events like Barack Obama assassinating American citizens without charge or trial, or the Vietnam War.
At any rate, the story goes: Trump allegedly committed a crime by reimbursing his former lawyer, convicted felon Michael Cohen, for a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, through the Trump Organization and/or Trump campaign and/or magical elves.
As the DailyMail notes, “Although the Justice Department decided not to charge Trump and the Federal Election Commission was deadlocked over taking action over claims that the payment amounted to an undeclared campaign contribution, the Manhattan DA was still looking at the case.”
Read here why the case is a crock.
Meanwhile, as mentioned earlier, Trump is the leading political opposition to the current administration.
Put on your seat belts, folks. We are in uncharted waters.
