#BREAKING NEW: THE JURY HAS REACHED A VERDICT IN THE TRUMP TRIAL. #TrumpTrial

2/ Via Inner City Press:

in #TrumpTrial, Justice Merchan just said that the jury has sent a note: they have reached a verdict, need 30 minutes to fill out.

3/ McBrien:

Before leaving the bench, Justice Merchan says to the gallery, "Let there be no outbursts or exclamations of any kind."

He says he'll be back in a few minutes and steps away.

The atmosphere in press overflow is ELECTRIC.

4/ Press:

[Trump has his armed cross in front of himself, Todd Blanche whispering in his right ear - notable, eyes closed]

5/ Weissmann:

I am awaiting Donald Trump saying he just needs someone to find him one vote (this time, on the jury).

6/ McB:

"Keep the outbursts to a minimum, and stay in your seats afterwards until you're given further instructions," a court officer tells us.

It is tense.

Trump, amazingly, has closed his eyes.

erica orden:

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg just entered the courtroom.

@GottaLaff NFL Unless he somehow got 12 sleepers onto the jury, there's no way an acquittal could have come so soon. The bell curve put too many people with common sense on the panel.
