LIVE: Trump departs New Jersey for DC court hearing on Jan. 6 case.

Former President Donald Trump Faces Third Indictment

Former President Donald Trump is ⁢leaving his luxurious New Jersey ⁢estate in Bedminster and making his way to​ Washington, D.C. for a‍ highly anticipated arraignment. ‌This will be his third indictment, and​ the stakes are high.

Arraignment ⁣Details

Trump will appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Moxila Upadhyaya at 4 p.m. on ‍Thursday at ​the prestigious E. Barrett Prettyman Courthouse. The courtroom will be buzzing with anticipation as the former president defends himself against the⁢ charges.

Key Takeaways from the​ Indictment

  • Charged with four counts by‍ special ⁣counsel‍ Jack Smith
  • Accused of attempting to overturn the 2020 election
  • Linked to the events that unfolded during the ⁤Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol
  • Trump is expected to plead not ⁤guilty, vehemently denying any wrongdoing

Trump has been vocal about his innocence, dismissing the⁤ indictment as a “witch hunt” ​orchestrated by a “deranged” prosecutor named Smith. Despite the mounting pressure, he remains steadfast in his defense.

It’s‌ worth noting that this⁣ is not the only legal battle Trump is currently ​facing. In addition to this federal indictment, he is also dealing with two other charges at both⁤ the state and federal levels.

Smith’s second investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents resulted in an⁣ indictment back in June. Meanwhile, the district attorney’s office‍ in Manhattan has filed criminal‍ charges related to hush money‌ payments made during the 2016 campaign.

As the clock ticks closer to 4 p.m. Eastern time, all eyes will be on the courtroom, waiting to see how this latest chapter‍ in Trump’s legal saga unfolds.
