Trump charged with three new counts
Donald Trump has been charged with three new counts in the case surrounding his alleged mishandling of classified documents after leaving the White House, according to new court documents.
The former president is charged with one additional count of willful retention of National Defense Information.
The superseding indictment also charges Trump, his aides Carlos De Oliveira and Walt Nauta with two new obstruction counts stemming from allegations that they attempted to delete surveillance camera footage last summer at Mar-a-Lago. From Politico’s Kyle Cheney:
