The list of indictment charges are expected to be read at 2:15 pm today, during Trump's arraignment. Via the New York Times:

Donald J. Trump is expected to surrender to the authorities in Manhattan on Tuesday and appear in court for the first time as a criminal defendant to face more than two dozen felony charges, a remarkable spectacle that will play out before a divided nation.

The charges, the first ever against a former American president, stem from a hush-money payment to a porn star that was made days before Mr. Trump was elected in 2016. He is expected to be accused of playing a role in covering up the payment, even as he led the nation as commander in chief.

And no, MAGAts, it isn't "just like Jesus" and this isn't Trump's "Passion Week." He's just a thug whose hearing happens to be scheduled this week.
