Former President Donald Trump Indicted in Connection with 2020 Election Overturn Plot

Trump Pleads Not Guilty to 37 Criminal Charges

Indictment Follows Historic Arraignment in Miami Federal Courthouse

Former President Donald J. Trump has been indicted on Tuesday in connection with his widespread efforts to overturn the 2020 election following a historic arraignment in a Miami federal courthouse.

Trump pleaded not guilty to 37 criminal charges, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, obstruction of an official proceeding of Congress, and making false statements to investigators.

The indictment accuses Trump of leading a "seditious conspiracy" to prevent the transfer of power to President Joe Biden by pressuring state officials to change election results, inciting a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, and attempting to obstruct the congressional certification of Biden's victory.
