Key Points

  • Former President Donald Trump said he has been told he is a target in the Jan. 6 criminal investigation by special counsel Jack Smith.
    
  • Smith already has criminally charged Trump with about two dozen crimes related to retaining classified documents when he left the White House.

  • Trump in a social media post about the new target letter sent by Smith suggested he may soon face indictment for the Jan. 6 probe.

  • That investigation is focused on Trump’s efforts to overturn his loss in the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.

    1. It’ll be funny if Georgia also gets off the pot and indictes too.

    2. Could this go in US News instead? Lemmy is broadly very US-centric already, so posting US politics here too drowns out other global stories.

      Not sure how I move it, but I’ll keep that in mind for next post. Thank you for the recommendation.
