Large interest most significant federal indictment of donald trump ever. This is in a way that well document more significantly than the legal headaches he already has. This will be tonight the first time any former president has been indicted by the Justice Department for trying to steal an election. Now, i mentioned, if you have been walking our breaking coverage, we have been going through what is a voluminous filing. Jack smith found six other coconspirators that are named in the filing.
