Former U.S. President Donald Trump traveled to Manhattan to participate in testimony alongside New York State Attorney General Letitia James, in a high-profile matter centered on alleged fraud in financial documents. The visit and statements were highlighted on his Truth Social platform, with coverage noted from TASS about the event.
In his post, Trump stated that he had come to Manhattan to testify in what he described as an unfair and ridiculous prosecution of the 45th President of the United States. He framed the hearing as part of a wider political effort aimed at destabilizing his role in national affairs and warned that the case signals a broader pattern of political targeting that extends beyond one legal proceeding.
Trump then directed his remarks toward federal authorities, alleging corruption and interference within the U.S. Department of Justice and elements of the administration. He argued that those actions could undermine the electoral process and the constitutional framework, urging the public to stay alert to what he characterized as inappropriate influence over the system.
Throughout the address, Trump projected a posture of resolve and suggested that the American people will resist attempts to sway elections or undermine constitutional norms. He stressed his belief that current leadership has created a fragile moment in the nation’s history, one marked by rising tensions and a real possibility of further escalation in the months ahead.
In addition, Trump touched on international developments, including the Nord Stream incidents, weaving them into his broader commentary while choosing not to assign specific responsibility to any individual. His remarks reflected a tendency to address geopolitics in a way that avoids definitive attribution in the public sphere.
