INDICTMENT
The Grand Jury charges that, at all times material to this Indictment, on or about the dates and at the approximate times stated below:
INTRODUCTION
1. The Defendant, DONALD J. TRUMP, was the forty-fifth President of the United States and a candidate for re-election in 2020. The Defendant lost the 2020 presidential election.
2. Despite having lost, the Defendant was determined to remain in power. So for more than two months following election day on November 3, 2020, the Defendant spread lies that there had been outcome-determinative fraud in the election and that he had actually won. These claims were false, and the Defendant knew that they were false. But the Defendant repeated and widely disseminated them anyway—to make his knowingly false claims appear legitimate, create an intense national atmosphere of mistrust and anger, and erode public faith in the administration of the election.
3). The Defendant had a right, like every American, to speak publicly about the election and even to claim, falsely, that there had been outcome-determinative fraud during the election and that he had won. He was also entitled to formally challenge the results of the election through lawful and appropriate means, such as by seeking recounts or audits of the popular vote in states or filing lawsuits challenging ballots and procedures. Indeed, in many cases, the Defendant did pursue these methods of contesting the election results. His efforts to change the outcome in any state through recounts, audits, or legal challenges were uniformly unsuccessful.
4. Shortly after election day, the Defendant also pursued unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes and subverting the election results. In so doing, the Defendant perpetrated three criminal conspiracies:
a. A conspiracy to defraud the United States by using dishonesty, fraud, and deceit to impair, obstruct, and defeat the lawful federal government function by which the results of the presidential election are collected, counted, and certified by the federal government, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371;
b. A conspiracy to corruptly obstruct and impede the January 6 congressional proceeding at which the collected results of the presidential election are counted and certified ("the certification proceeding"), in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(k); and
c. A conspiracy against the right to vote and to have one's vote counted, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241.
Each of these conspiracies—which built on the widespread mistrust the Defendant was creating through pervasive and destabilizing lies about election fraud—targeted a bedrock function of the United States federal government: the nation's process of collecting, counting, and certifying the results of the presidential election ("the federal government function').

I want him gone. I want him locked up in miserable conditions for the rest of his pathetic life. I want his social media network taken down and I want each and everyone of his supporters to wake up and see how they've been swindled. I want to wake up one days and see the headline, "Trump Dies In Prison."

If that makes me a horrible person, so be it.

Many of You Owe Hillary an Apology

He never belonged here.

He was never emotionally, intellectually, or moral deserving of the presidency.

And for whatever reason, you chose incorrectly.

More than that, you refuse to admit that.

Hillary Clinton isn't perfect, but here's what I know:

    • She wouldn't have engaged in middle of the night, all-caps social media rants.
    • She wouldn't have called Nazis and racists "fine people."
    • She wouldn't have played patty-cake with Vladimir Putin.
    • She wouldn't have publicly praised Kim Jong Um.
    • She wouldn't have emboldened racists to march through streets in the light of day.
    • She wouldn't have coddled the NRA in the wake of unrelenting mass shootings.
    • She wouldn't have tripped over herself for praise and credit and affirmation like some insecure middle schooler.
    • She wouldn't still be holding rallies in a desperate attempt to gather a choir of sycophants to shower her with adulation.
    • She wouldn't have attacked the integrity of the Free Press, the FBI, or the Judiciary.
    • She wouldn't have stumbled, shoved, and faked away moments of international diplomacy because she lacked basic knowledge of the issues or the ability to be decent.
    • She wouldn't have had a revolving door Cabinet filled with white supremacists, creationists, and flat-earthers.
    • She wouldn't have lied repeatedly, ignored science, and turned wearing masks into a tribal political statement.
