As Matt reported, President Donald Trump announced Thursday night he has been indicted by the Department of Justice on a number of charges related to alleged mishandling of classified information and obstruction of justice.
In addition to DOJ's decision to indict a former president, eyebrows are being raised about the timing of the indictment. Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Chuck Grassley is leading the way.

Do you really think that's a coincidence?
Further, serious questions about how DOJ is using the power of the federal goverment to target President Joe Biden's top political opponent are being highlighted.
If the people in power can jail their political opponents at will, we don’t have a republic
