Trump gears up for 2024 rally in Waco, Texas amid ongoing federal investigation, possible NY indictment

Former President Donald Trump will travel to Waco, Texas, on March 25 for his first rally of the 2024 election season.

Former President Donald Trump will travel to Texas next weekend for what will be his first major rally as he seeks the GOP nomination for president in 2024.

Announced Friday, the leading Republican’s rally will be held on March 25 in Waco, Texas, which is part of McLennan County, which Trump won in 2020 by more than 23 points.

Trump has made numerous visits to the state over the years. Waco is the site of a deadly 1993 massacre where federal agents seized a compound of the Branch Davidians, a religious cult.

The plans for Trump’s rally come amid reports that the Manhattan District Attorney’s office may be preparing to issue an indictment for alleged hush money payments Trump made as a presidential candidate in 2016.

But the potential indictment and Trump’s claim that he may be arrested Tuesday is not preventing the former president’s team from ensuring the rally goes on.

“There has been no notification, other than illegal leaks from the Justice Dept. and the DA’s office, to NBC and other fake news carriers, that the George Soros-funded Radical Left Democrat prosecutor in Manhattan has decided to take his Witch-Hunt to the next level,” a Trump spokesperson said Saturday. “President Trump is rightfully highlighting his innocence and the weaponization of our injustice system. He will be in Texas next weekend for a giant rally. Make America Great Again!”

A court source told Fox News Digital that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office will meet with law enforcement to “discuss logistics for some time next week, which would mean that they are anticipating an indictment next week.”

The potential indictment stems from the years-long investigation surrounding Trump’s alleged hush money scandal involving porn star Stormy Daniels. Towards the end of the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump’s then-lawyer Michael Cohen sent $130,000 to Daniels to prevent her from disclosing her 2006 affair with Trump. Trump reimbursed Cohen through installments.
