This day could go down in history. Former President Donald Trump said that he expects to be arrested over an investigation into a hush-money payment today. And yesterday afternoon, the NYPD began installing steel barricades around Manhattan’s Criminal Court.
It’s still not a sure thing, but if Trump is indicted and arrested, he’d be the first former president to face criminal charges. His lawyers have said that if it happens, he’ll follow standard arrest procedures, including getting fingerprinted and having a mugshot taken. Should be an interesting day.

Another fight with the EPA is in the making for Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt and other governors who have blocked shipments of waste from the fiery train derailment in Ohio.
After Stitt blocked rail shipments of contaminated soil to a waste site in northwestern Oklahoma, EPA Administrator Michael Regan responded by stating there was no reason for states like Oklahoma to block the shipments.
“This is impermissible and this is unacceptable,” said Regan in a letter to the governors who took the action against the shipments reported the Associated Press.
Regan informed the governors they are likely violating a federal law that deals with the interstate transport of waste and of the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
