The classified docs allegedly contained highly sensitive information from the CIA and DoD â like the US's nuclear programs or the country's potential vulnerability to military attacks.

Meanwhile, Trump maintains the indictment is a âa political hit job.â [Many Democrats]( say âno oneâs above the law.â As for the rest of the country, one poll found the indictment has [divided]( many Americans. theSkimm Trump faces more than three dozen federal charges. While this case plays out in the judicial system, there are still other cases and investigations unfolding in the backgroundâ¦along with the 2024 election.
