EVEN MORE Charges Against Trump
Another day, another indictment against former President Donald Trump.
Special Counsel Jack Smith levied a superseding indictment against former President Donald Trump centered on the supposed removal of surveillance footage from his Mar-a-Lago home concerning the classified documents scandal. Trump’s property manager allegedly deleted the security footage and informed another co-worker that “the boss” wanted the server wiped clean.
Special counsel Jack Smith has brought three new felony charges against former President Donald Trump, including explosive claims that he asked an employee of his Mar-a-Lago club to delete security camera footage sought by investigators probing his handling of classified documents.
In a 60-page superseding indictment unveiled Thursday, prosecutors also accused Trump of possessing a highly classified war plan that he shared with people lacking security clearances months after his presidency ended. And prosecutors added a third defendant: Carlos De Oliveira, a worker at Mar-a-Lago who is accused of joining Trump and aide Walt Nauta to seek the destruction of the security footage. . . .
Trump now faces two new obstruction-of-justice charges related to the alleged attempt to erase the security camera video. In addition, the new indictment adds a felony count under the Espionage Act stemming from his alleged possession of the war plan. He now faces 32 counts of willfully retaining national defense information under the Espionage Act and eight counts related to alleged efforts to obstruct the investigation.
The new indictment alleges that on June 27, 2022, De Oliveira met with a Trump Organization employee in an audio closet at Mar-a-Lago and asked that person — unnamed in the indictment — to delete the security camera video sought by prosecutors in a grand jury subpoena days earlier.
Trump has been outspoken that this indictment is “election interference at the highest level” as he remains the frontrunner for the GOP nomination for the 2024 presidential election.
Oddly, these are not the charges we told you we were anticipating yesterday involving the events of January 6th. Now we’re left wondering if those rumored charges are still forthcoming as well. It’s clear the Biden DOJ is doing its part to try and prevent Donald Trump from regaining the White House in 2024. Of course, every time they levy another charge, it only seems to bolster support for the Trump campaign. Whether that will happen yet again remains to be seen.
