They have nothing! he exclaimed a shortened version of Trump in reference to the investigation, saying that Bragg’s office was “full of DC agents.”
He called the case “prosecutor’s misconduct” and said it was “worse than ballot stuffing or media manipulation by the FBI working together with Twitter, Facebook and the rest.”

Nugent, who had three multi-platinum solo albums in the 1970s and has long been a supporter of conservative causes and President Trump, criticized Washington for how it was spending its tax dollars.
He even went so far as to label Ukraine’s President Zelensky a “homosexual weirdo.”
Nugent was tasked with performing the national anthem for the rally, Trump’s first in Texas of the 2024 presidential cycle.
But before playing his electric guitar version of the Star-Spangled Banner, Nugent addressed the crowd, telling them they were the “real America.”
“I’m telling you, the whole world sucks and America is catching up, but here in Waco, Texas, with the real kickers, this doesn’t suck at all,” Nugent said.
Holding a Trump rally in Waco is ‘a statement: that the FBI besieged him at Mar-a-Lago and that they were accusing him of different things that are not really true, just like David Koresh was accused by the FBI when they besieged it,’ Koresh’s successor, Pastor Charles Pace, told the New York Times.
The Trump campaign insisted that the location and timing of the event had nothing to do with the siege or the Waco anniversary. Instead, a spokesperson said the site was chosen because it was conveniently located near four of the state’s largest metropolitan areas: Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio, and has the infrastructure to handle sizeable crowds.
The city is part of McLennan County, which Trump won in 2020 by more than 23 points. The airport where the rally is taking place is 17 miles from the Branch Davidian precinct.
The rally had already been in the works before it became clear that a grand jury in New York was closing in on a possible indictment as it investigates hush money payments made to women who alleged sexual encounters with Trump during the height of his 2016 campaign. Trump has denied the women’s claims.

A supporter waves a Trump flag as he waits in line for former US President Donald Trump to speak during his Make America Great Again rally at the Waco Regional Airport Center in Waco, Texas.
Some of his recent rhetoric has echoed the language he used prior to the January 6, 2021 insurrection at the US Capitol by a mob of his supporters seeking to stop the transfer of power.
‘What kind of person can accuse another person, in this case a former President of the United States… and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, with a Crime, when it is known to all that NO Crime has been committed, and it is also known that the potential death and destruction on such a false charge could be catastrophic for our country?’ Trump wrote on his social media site early Friday morning.

Fire consumes the Branch Davidian Compound during the FBI assault to end the 51-day standoff with cult leader David Koresh and his followers in March 1993.
David Koresh was the leader of the cult claiming to be Christ, and his followers were involved in a confrontation with police at the compound in 1993.
Trump has spent weeks criticizing the investigation. In a move that seemed designed to pre-empt a formal announcement and galvanize his loyal base, he claimed last Saturday that he would be arrested the following Tuesday. While that didn’t happen, Trump used the days since then to try to shape public perception, claiming, for example, that the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office had been thrown into “total disarray” even though there was no evidence to suggest that prosecutors were walking away from the case.
The Manhattan case centers on a $130,000 payment that Trump lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen made to porn actor Stormy Daniels when Trump was in the midst of the 2016 campaign. Trump later reimbursed Cohen and his company recorded the refunds as a legal expense. Cohen has already served prison time after pleading guilty to campaign finance charges and lying to Congress, among other crimes.
Trump is also facing an investigation in Georgia into his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, as well as federal investigations into his handling of classified documents and possible obstruction, as well as his efforts on January 6.
