The Trump camp was recently informed about an impending federal indictment over alleged mishandling of classified documents, raising concerns of bias from federal prosecutors. Amid Trump’s legal team’s allegations of witness tampering, the Justice Department declined to delay the charges, igniting suspicions of partisan motives. Tom Fitton, President of Judicial Watch, fervently defended Trump in a recent video, stating any prosecution would be a “wild abuse of power”. Fitton referred to the Presidential Records Act, which gives the president “virtually complete control” over his records, arguing accusations of misconduct are a press to vilify Trump. This case would break new ground as no prior American president has ever been indicted in federal court.
