Trump Indicted in Federal Election Probe on Four Counts

by Madeleine Hubbard and Ben Whedon

 

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday was indicted as part of a special counsel Jack Smith’s federal grand jury probe into his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results and the former president’s role in the subsequent Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Smith charged Trump with four counts, including conspiracy to defraud, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.

Trump said Monday that he expected to be indicted “any day,” and earlier this month he revealed that the Justice Department informed him that he was a target in Smith’s probe.

This is Trump’s second federal indictment. Trump, along with two of his employees, were charged in another probe led by Smith over the alleged mishandling of classified documents.

Trump pleaded not guilty to all 37 charges in that case, but several more charges were brought against him last week.

Separately, Trump pleaded not guilty to 34 state charges in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s probe of the former president’s alleged role in a hush-money scheme.  

Yes, Every Kid

Trump faces another possible indictment related to the 2020 race in Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ probe of his efforts to challenge the election results in Georgia. That potential indictment would come after several failed attempts to block Willis from prosecuting him.

    I agree with Tim, the globalists/democrats are so fearful of President Trump that they will go to ANY means to stop him. If the 2020 presidential election would have been fair, the world would be in a far better place than it is right now.

    I believe the democrats will vote to impeach Biden because he is such a criminal, and they know he doesn’t stand a chance of being reelected. So this leaves us with Harris until the election. She is completely clueless when it comes to governance.

    So where does that leave us for the 2024 election? I’m afraid things are going to get very bad over the next 18 months and beyond.

    This is proof that Democrats are still terrified of Trump.

    Sad that our government can not forget the double standard when letting Biden slide like a turd out of its native environment.
