Donald Trump said that he received a letter from Special Counsel Jack Smith stating that he is a target of a grand jury’s January 6th investigation, in what the former president said was a prelude to arrest and indictment.
In a message posted on Truth Social, his social media platform, Trump said that the letter gave him a “very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and Indictment.”
Trump said that he received the letter on Sunday night.
Smith already has indicted Trump on a series of charges relating to the former president’s withholding of classified documents after he left the White House. But he also is said to have been investigating Trump’s efforts to remain in the White House after the 2020 presidential election, including a plan to block the counting of electoral votes on January 6th and to put forth a slate of his own electors.
More to come.
