After pleading not guilty to criminal charges in New York, former President Donald Trump returned to his home in Florida and got right back to attacking the prosecutor who got him indicted.

Standing before family and supporters at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump called Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg a “criminal” who should be prosecuted or at the very least resign over claims that he “illegally leaked” grand jury information before Trump’s arraignment.

Trump also repeated claims that the judge in the Manhattan case — acting New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan — is a “Trump hating judge.” And he again raised concerns about the judge’s family, including his daughter, whose firm has boasted of doing work for the campaigns of top Democrats, including President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

Earlier in the day, Trump pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records as part of what Bragg, a Democrat, alleged to be a “catch-and-kill” scheme to influence the 2016 election. In addition, the judge warned against rhetoric that could stoke civil unrest. Trump is not due back in court until December.

"These are felony crimes in New York state, no matter who you are."

Reports are already coming out with estimates that Trump could be sentenced to more than 100 years in prison if he is convicted. There is also debate about the strength of Bragg’s case, and it’s not just Trump’s allies who see issues with it.

“I believe President Trump’s character and conduct make him unfit for office,” said Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) in a statement. “Even so, I believe the New York prosecutor has stretched to reach felony criminal charges in order to fit a political agenda.”

The former president, who is running a third campaign for the White House, did not stop with the Manhattan case. He attacked others who are investigating him.

Among the targets of his ire were special counsel Jack Smith, Georgia’s Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and the FBI.

“Our justice system has become lawless. They are using it now, in addition to everything else, to win elections,” Trump said.

Country star Darius Rucker said he still doesn’t know how he’s getting to do the job he loves, and he’s grateful, but admitted the downside is being away from his kids.

The 56-year-old country singer opened up about his career, making the switch to country music after 15 years as the lead man for the pop group “Hootie and the Blowfish,” and the heartache of spending so much time on the road.

“The moment I knew it was time was when we had a meeting and we said we [Hootie and the Blowfish] weren’t going to tour … anymore like that, so I knew it was time to go to Nashville and see if I could do it,” Rucker told Fox News.

“When I very first started, there was a lot of naysayers and everything, but once ‘Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It’ hit, I think acceptance started,” he added.

The song debuted in 2008, and in a few short months skyrocketed up the chart to the number one spot. Since that time, he’s released four country music albums — with numerous songs going to the top of the charts — and was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry in 2012.

“I have no idea why any of this is happening. I just know I’m enjoying it,” the country star told the outlet. “I’ve wanted to play music since I was 4 and I’m getting to do it at 56 still so I think that’s pretty cool.”

“The only hard thing about being on the road is being away from your kids,” he added. “That’s the only hard part. Everything else is gravy. But you know being away from the family and not seeing them as much as you can … is tough, but it’s your job.”

Rucker was previously married to Beth Leonard from 2000-2020, and the two share two kids. The singer also has a daughter from a previous relationship.

The singer also told the outlet that what he loves about Country music is that it’s “real. It’s stories and it’s life. It’s what music is supposed to be.”

“It touches you in the way I think music’s supposed to touch you,” he added. “And it’s just getting bigger and bigger and doing its thing. It’s all about the songs and that’s what country music is about, the song.”
