Former US President Donald Trump warned in the early hours of Friday of "potential death & destruction" if the Manhattan district attorney decides to prosecute him.
Donald Trump posted on Truth Social at 1 a.m. on Friday: "What kind of person can charge another person, in this case a former President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President in history, and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, with a Crime, when it is known by all that NO Crime has been committed, & also known that potential death & destruction in such a false charge could be catastrophic for our Country?," The Hill reported.
The Republican leader added, "Only a degenerate psychopath that truly hates the USA!"
The New York grand jury is finalizing its tasks in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's probe into whether the ex-POTUS unlawfully paid a porn actress to stay silent about their alleged romance and if the payment constituted a violation of election finance laws. Consequently, he has become more agitated on social media about the possible Donald Trump indictment.

One senior official of the Biden administration said the prospective Donald Trump indictment is something that top administration officials at the Department of Homeland Security are monitoring "closely."
The official noted that nothing is "credible and specific" or "actionable" as there are constant elements that surface that will lead individuals to pay interest and potentially raise alarm, per ABC News.
