Former President Donald Trump has been indicted on four federal felony charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol, marking the first time in American history that political speech has been criminalized. This is the second federal indictment of Trump in as many months, and he has also been indicted once on state charges in New York. Trump's attorney has argued that Trump is being targeted for his policy issues, and the implications of this indictment are far-reaching as Trump could be on trial in multiple states while he jockeys for his political future.
