WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Biden Administration's weaponized Dept. of Justice indicted former president Donald Trump Tuesday on four counts alleging attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election and block the transfer of power.
The indictment includes charges of conspiring to defraud the U.S., conspiring to obstruct an official proceeding, obstructing an official proceeding and violating a post-Civil War Reconstruction Era civil rights statute that makes it a crime to conspire to violate rights that are guaranteed by the Constitution, specifically the right to vote.
The charges are the latest in an unrelenting string of actions by democrats to prevent Trump from running for president in 2024.
The mounting criminal cases are being prosecuted as the 2024 primary gets into full swing. A conviction would not prevent Trump from pursuing the White House or serving as president.
In New York, state prosecutors have charged Trump with falsifying business records about a hush money payoff to a porn actor before the 2016 election. The trial is set to begin in March.
In Florida, the Justice Department has brought more than three dozen felony counts, accusing him of illegally possessing classified documents after leaving the White House and concealing them from investigators. That trial begins in May.
The four-count indictment provided deeper insight into a dark moment that has already been the subject of exhaustive federal investigations and public hearings. It alleges that President Trump sought to exploit the uncertainty by pointing to it as a reason to further delay the counting of votes that sealed his defeat.
The Trump campaign called the charges “fake” and asked why it took two-and-a-half years to bring them.
