This news should decrease the market probability I expect (at least a bit)

Jack Smith Ends DC Grand Jury in Trump Documents Case After Challenge From Judge

Special Counsel Jack Smith has revealed in a recent court filing that the Washington grand jury in the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump has ended, after the judge challenged the special counsel over his use of an out-of-state grand jury. While Mr. Smith empaneled a grand jury in Miami to indict President […]

If this is legit, that's a lot of charges... 39. Looks like 78 (from first three) +39 = 117 if all of them get signed off by the grand jury. Increasing YES bet.

Edit:Looks like 13 in the indictment 78 + 13 = 91

It's possible that there might be another indictment in another state (but none seem likely right now) or another superseding indictment where more gets piled on but I don't think its likely any more that he'll reach 100 before the year is out based on the current news.

@parhizj

CNN has the total the same presently (91) so it’s good to confirm my math

Takeaways from the Georgia indictment of Donald Trump and 18 others | CNN Politics

Former President Donald Trump on Monday was criminally charged for the fourth time this year in a sweeping Georgia indictment accusing him of being the head of a “criminal enterprise” to overturn the 2020 election.

@parhizj In case anyone was interested that initial document posted by accident on the day of the indictment was a "work sample" that got posted by accident as part of the preparation for posting the indictment: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/georgia-court-admits-mishap-fictitious-trump-indictment-i-am-human

I don't know how I forgot this but it's still possible there will be another indictment on the documents case. I will sell my shares and wait until it looks like another indictment isn't coming.

Could Jack Smith Maneuver Around Judge Cannon and Bring a Second Documents Case Against Trump at D.C.?

A grand jury at the nation’s capital has not disbanded, raising the possibility that it could hand up its own charges.

very convenient that all these alleged crimes from 2020 took so long to investigate that the indictments dropped right before the 2024 election

@JonathanRay I agree. He should be convicted already.

@JonathanRay Were over a year and a half away from the election. Do you think that politicians should only be charged one year out of four or something?

@SebastianWorms And supreme court justices can only be impeached once every 220 years. So, one more year to go!

At 78 now according to this article:

New superseding indictment (see page 55 for penalty sheet with indictments against Trump): Counts 33-38, 40-41 are new (8 new today) against Trump. There are now 40 for the documents case alone.

@parhizj

Edit: Jan. 6 indictment doesn't have "charges," only counts

Edit: When there is a penalty sheet there should eventually be many charges from this one indictment, right?

Special counsel informs Trump he is target in probe of efforts to overturn 2020 election

Special counsel Jack Smith has informed former President Trump that he is a target in his investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election, say sources.

Prosecutors are prepared to hit Trump and his allies with new charges, sources say

Prosecutors could bring between 30 to 45 additional criminal charges against the former president in the coming weeks, The Independent has learned

The trial with Judge Cannon has not been going well thus far, so I am expecting more indictments to resolve this YES.

For a second I imagined it said 100 indictments
