The latest on the federal indictment of Trump in the documents probe

Trump's attorney confirms former president faces 7-count indictment

Donald Trump's attorney Jim Trusty confirmed Thursday night that the former president has been charged with seven counts – and revealed that the charges “break out from an Espionage Act charge.”

"It does have some language in it that suggests what the seven charges would be. Not 100% clear that all of those are separate charges, but they basically break out from an Espionage Act charge," he told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.

As could be expected, trumpkins didn't react well to the news.

Trump has maintained his innocence, often calling the DOJ probe a "hoax" and a form of "election interference." Several of the former president's political allies also condemned the news of his indictment over Twitter, including Ohio Representative Jim Jordan, who tweeted that it was a "Sad day for America."

"Democrats must literally shake with sweats when they see amazing packed out Trump 

rallies and overwhelming winning poll numbers week after week," said Georgia 

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who also shared screenshots of Trump's 

reaction on Truth Social. "They must awake in the night with panic at the thoughts of us 

winning in 2024."

Greene also wrote in length about the accusations against Biden's family, whom 

House Republicans have accused of an alleged bribery scheme based off an unclassified 

FBI forum shown to lawmakers on Thursday. Florida Representative Matt Gaetz also 

noted the form, tweeting, "Imagine being naive enough to believe that the Biden Bribe 

evidence and Trump indictment happening the same day was a coincidence."

Conservative political pundit Charlie Kirk demanded that Trump's opponents 

in the 2024 GOP primary take action and "show solidarity" with the 

former president, or risk being made "part of the opposition."

Of course, with Cheeto, the grift never stops.

Trump immediately fundraises after saying he was indicted in documents probe

Former President Trump on Thursday swiftly moved toward fundraising efforts after claiming he’s been indicted in connection with the Justice Department’s investigation into his handling of classified documents. 

“We are watching our Republic DIE before our very eyes. The Biden-appointed Special Counsel has INDICTED me in yet another witch hunt regarding documents that I had the RIGHT to declassify as President of the United States,” Trump wrote in an email message asking supporters to donate.
