Trump to Be Arraigned on Charges over Jan. 6 and Efforts to Overturn 2020 Election

HeadlineAug 03, 2023

Authorities have erected metal barricades around the Federal Courthouse in Washington, D.C., ahead of former President Donald Trump’s arraignment today on charges he plotted to overturn his 2020 election defeat. Meanwhile, special counsel Jack Smith, who’s leading federal investigations into Trump, has requested a hearing with a federal judge in Miami to determine whether a lawyer representing Trump’s co-defendant in the classified documents case has a conflict of interest. Federal prosecutors are questioning whether the attorney Stanley Woodward Jr. can continue to represent Trump’s “body man” Walt Nauta while simultaneously representing three witnesses who might be called to testify against Nauta.
