Supporter,
Today, as supporters and campaign surrogates surrounded the courthouse
building, Donald Trump entered a Miami courtroom to be formally charged
with the indictment announced just a few days ago.
Just moments after entering a plea of “not guilty” to all charges, Trump
and his team quickly left the courthouse and made a stop to greet
supporters at a nearby restaurant. It’s clear that Trump has every
intention to make his case in the court of public opinion instead of the
federal court where a grand jury of everyday Americans handed down these
charges. And this despite the very serious and egregious obstruction of
justice and disregard for our nation’s security detailed in the
indictment.

Just hours from now Trump will host his first fundraiser of the 2024 cycle
where he will no doubt attempt to attack the legitimacy of this case – an
event that is expected to raise at least TWO MILLION DOLLARS for his
campaign!
In the weeks and months ahead Trump and the throngs of his campaign
surrogates will be relentlessly attacking this case and the other
investigations into his criminal behavior: trashing the justice system
they once claimed to hold in high regard and perpetuating the falsehood
that these investigations are politically motivated.
It’s going to be a long fight, but it’s one that People For and our
members are, with your support, well-equipped to take on. [ [link removed] ]Make a

Supporter,
Last night, reports of former President Trump’s indictment over his
mishandling of classified documents spread like wildfire. Trump took to
his social media network to inform the world he had been summoned to
appear in a Miami district court next Tuesday afternoon.
"I have been summoned to appear at the Federal Courthouse in Miami on
Tuesday, at 3 PM," Trump wrote. "I never thought it possible that such a
thing could happen to a former President of the United States. […] I AM
AN INNOCENT MAN!" ^[1]
Today, the 49-page federal indictment was unsealed – providing a stark and
detailed account of how irresponsibly Trump stored the highly classified
and sensitive documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida – and how he
tried to thwart investigators. According to the indictment, dozens upon
dozens of boxes were found stacked in unsecured rooms throughout the
estate, including a ballroom, a bathroom, and other unlocked storage
facilities – with some boxes whose contents had spilled open on the floor!

In total, Trump is being charged with 37 felony counts relating to his
reckless mishandling of some of our nation’s top secret and classified
intelligence.
While many familiar Trump enablers like House Speaker Kevin McCarthy,
Reps. Jim Jordan and Elise Stefanik, and other Republicans have and will
continue to rush to Trump’s defense, the need to continue our fight for
accountability and justice remain paramount as we seek to protect and
strengthen our democracy. Authoritarianism thrives in the absence of
accountability – and we cannot allow Republicans to run roughshod over our
justice system while they attempt to protect Trump!

his enablers accountable! >>
This latest indictment follows a previous 34-count indictment in New York
state along with two other active investigations: one into Trump’s
involvement in the January 6 insurrection and the other regarding Trump’s
attempts to interfere with the results of the 2020 Georgia elections.
We must remain vigilant in our efforts to hold Trump accountable for all
of his criminal behavior. Trump and his MAGA allies will continue to
spread baseless conspiracy theories about each of these investigations,
and we must not relent until justice is served in every case.
[ [link removed] ]We cannot let far-right Republicans distort the facts and attack the
rule of law – support our campaign to hold Trump accountable for his
criminal activity! >>
Thanks for all you do,
Zach, People For the American Way
