Trump Indicted for Attempting to Overturn 2020 Election
Former President Faces 37 Charges
Arraigned in Miami Federal Courthouse
Former President Donald Trump was indicted on Tuesday in connection with his widespread efforts to overturn the 2020 election. The indictment, which contains 37 charges, includes willfully retaining national defense information and obstructing an official proceeding of the United States government.
Trump, who confirmed the indictment on his social media platform, pleaded not guilty during a historic arraignment in a Miami federal courthouse. The charges stem from his alleged attempts to interfere in the certification of the election results, including pressuring state officials to change the vote count and inciting a mob of supporters to storm the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.
The indictment is a significant development in the ongoing investigation into Trump's conduct surrounding the 2020 election. It marks the first time a former president has been indicted for crimes committed while in office.
