Former MAGA President Indicted by Grand Jury for Hush Payment, Campaign Finance Violation
LAS VEGAS, NV – On March 30, 2023, the former President of the United States was indicted on charges of falsifying business records to hide a campaign finance violation in the cover-up of a $130,000 hush-money payment to adult actress Stormy Daniels.
“The former MAGA president has repeatedly shown contempt and disregard for the laws and traditions of the office of the President. It is past time he is held accountable for his lies and corruption,” said Annette Magnus, Executive Director of Battle Born Progress. “Nevadans, and Americans, deserve leaders who follow the law, act honorably in our interests, and govern in our name. A Grand Jury, representative of everyday Americans across race, party, and background, has handed down an indictment after reviewing evidence of these charges.
Even still, MAGA Republicans in office around the country work to curtail our rights and freedoms, while lying and conspiring to protect the former president, and undermine our legal system to prevent him from being held accountable. They’ve knowingly backed this con-man because they see him as a vessel to accomplish their agenda of taking away access to health care, Social Security, clean air and water, and the freedom to vote, all so they can instead hand more wealth and power to billionaires and corporations. The former president and his co-conspirators must stand trial to answer for their crimes. The onus is on all Republicans in office, like Rep. Mark Amodei and Governor Joe Lombardo, to join Americans in demanding that justice be served. Today’s indictment is merely the first step towards the former MAGA president facing any level of accountability for his criminal behavior.”
