Rumors circulated for days. Donald Trump confirmed it on his reality social network on Thursday, June 8. The former US president is expected to appear in federal court in Miami, Florida on June 13 to be formally charged in connection with the classified documents found at his Mar-a-Lago home. Donald Trump took with him when he left the White House in January 2021 the nearly 300 official memos written by various government departments of varying degrees of secrecy.
The former president will be indicted on seven counts, one of his attorneys, Jim Trusty, confirmed. According to New York Times, He will be charged with knowingly possessing national security documents in violation of the Espionage Act – a crime punishable by up to ten years in prison – but also with perjury and conspiracy to obstruct justice to implicate other participants. These legal details, crucial to understanding the strategy being pursued by special counsel Jack Smith, will only be confirmed on Tuesday.
Already, it’s a seismic shock, hitting the will of the Republican primaries, and he’s already survived two impeachment procedures in Congress. A former U.S. president has never been indicted by a federal justice who would pass the exceptional test of credibility and resistance.
The shock was far greater than the first guilty plea decided against Donald Trump in New York on April 4 by attorney Alvin Brock for falsifying his team’s accounting documents thirty-four times. As the 2016 presidential election approaches, the businessman has bought the silence of many, including X’s actress Stormy Daniels, to avoid embarrassing revelations.
On May 9, still in New York, Donald Trump entered presidential history through a shameful door. He was found civilly liable for a sexual assault, and he victimized columnist E. Jean was ordered to pay $5 million (€4.56 million) to Carroll; The latter accused him of raping her in a supermarket twenty-five years ago.

In the run-up to the Republican primaries, Donald Trump continues to fuel a conspiracy against him, fueled by deep government and magistrates in the service of Democrats. “I’m an innocent, I’ve done nothing wrong”He reiterated as always in a video released Thursday evening.
