Trial Balloon · Ep. 190: Trump Is Everywhere

Target Letter to Trump Mentions Conspiracy, Tampering

July 18, 2023 · 6:31 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“The special counsel’s letter to Donald Trump related to Jan. 6 listed the federal statutes under which Trump is expected to be charged, including conspiracy, obstruction, and civil rights violations,” Rolling Stone reports.

“The letter mentions three federal statutes: Conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States; deprivation of rights under color of law; and tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant. It does not offer further details, nor does it detail how the special counsel believes Trump may have violated the statutes.”

“The letter does not mention statues on sedition or insurrection… Trump is the only person named in the letter.”
