On Aug. 1, 2023, former President Donald Trump was indicted by a federal grand jury for efforts to overturn the 2020 election — all which led up to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol as Congress was meeting to validate President Joe Biden’s victory. The four charges are conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding; and conspiracy against rights. CNN reported that the former POTUS is scheduled to appear at a Washington, D.C., federal courthouse on Thursday, Aug. 3. This marks Trump’s third indictment since March 2023. Still, he remains the front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, and by a wide margin.

“Who will Americans vote for in 2024? Democracy, rule of law and the future of the republic or… Donald Trump?” –Billy Baldwin

“As President, I will end the weaponization of government, replace the FBI Director, and ensure a single standard of justice for all Americans. While I’ve seen reports, I have not read the indictment. I do, though, believe we need to enact reforms so that Americans have the right to remove cases from Washington, DC to their home districts. Washington, DC is a ‘swamp’ and it is unfair to have to stand trial before a jury that is reflective of the swamp mentality. One of the reasons our country is in decline is the politicization of the rule of law. No more excuses — I will end the weaponization of the federal government.” —Florida Governor and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis

“Anyone else noticing a pattern here? The corrupt beurocrats [sic] of the Biden regime charge Trump literally the day after every single disastrous Biden crime family story. Rather than looking into the millions sent to the Biden’s their kids and their grandkids from virtually all of our enemies they go after their political enemies knowing that their lackeys in the media will use their bogus charges to cover for Joe Biden, the most corrupt president in the history of our nation. There’s no such thing as this much coincidence and if you’ve been paying attention, you will realize that we have become a banana republic. Truly disgusting.” –Donald Trump Jr.
