The document charges 19 defendants — including former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark.

The grand jury indicted Trump this evening, charging him as part of a sweeping investigation into the effort by him and his allies to overturn the 2020 election.

In an appearance on Fox News tonight, Republican former House Speaker Newt Gingrich called on GOP lawmakers to "cut off" funding for special counsel Jack Smith's office.

“I think Republicans are going to have to have the guts to stand up and say, ‘No, this is over.’ And the first place to do that is the budget ... just cut off the money on Sept. 30,” he said, referring to the last day of the fiscal year, when government funding is set to run out unless new funding legislation is signed into law.

“They should do whatever it takes to close down this entire anti-constitutional, ruthless breaking of the law,” Gingrich said.

He went further to decry the grand juries involved in each of the indictments, calling them unfair and not accurate juries of Trump’s peers. The solution, he said, was to go after Smith’s funding.

With Trump already facing three indictments, Gingrich also argued that notching a fourth in Georgia would only embolden voters to be Trump campaign surrogates.

A lawyer for John Eastman, an attorney at the center of the "fake electors" strategy to overturn the 2020 election for Trump, said he and his client have received no information today about the grand jury action in Georgia.

Eastman attorney Harvey Silverglate said they sent a legal memo to the district attorney this morning explaining why, in their view, no charges should be filed against Eastman — and they asked for a meeting to further try to make that case.

Silverglate said they sent a similar memo and request to the special counsel Friday.

Silverglate previously confirmed that Eastman appears to be "Co-Conspirator 2," an unindicted and unnamed operative mentioned in special counsel Jack Smith's indictment against Trump in Washington, D.C., this month.

Eastman faces disbarment proceedings in California, which he has asked to be put on hold because of the potential for criminal charges in Smith's probe.

The Trump campaign argued that the yet-to-be released indictment amounted to "election interference or election manipulation."

In a statement, the campaign reiterated Trump's personal attacks on the prosecutors involved in his indictments. It also argued that the indictment in Georgia was an attempt to suppress the former president's First Amendment rights, the same argument Trump has used in other his other indictments.

In an interview on MSNBC, Hillary Clinton said she feels "profound sadness" that the U.S. has a former president who has faced indictments "that went right to the heart of whether or not our democracy would survive."

In response to Rachel Maddow's question about whether she feels any satisfaction, she said the only satisfaction could be that "the system is working" and "justice is being pursued." Clinton referred to Trump's actions on Jan. 6, 2021, as having the hallmarks of "authoritarian dictatorial kinds of leaders."

Clinton, the 2016 Democratic nominee, also took aim at the GOP.

"I hope that we won't have accountability just for Donald Trump and if there are others named in these indictments along with him for their behavior, but we'll also have accountability for a political party that has just thrown in with all of the lies and the divisiveness and the lack of any conscience about what was being done to the country," she said.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., appeared to cast doubt over Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' investigation of Trump in a Fox News interview tonight.

"Are we going to let county prosecutors start prosecuting the president of the United States -- the former president of the United States?" Graham asked in an interview with host Pete Hegseth.

Graham also took aim at Democratic prosecutors more broadly.

"The American people can decide whether they want him to be president or not. This should be decided at the ballot box, not a bunch of liberal jurisdictions trying to put the man in jail," Graham said. "They’re weaponizing the law in this country. They’re trying to take Donald Trump down, and this is setting a bad precedent."

Giuliani, who helped lead the former president's legal campaign to overturn the 2020 election, is live on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

Giuliani is arguing that Trump's legal team could contest the indictment, which he called "unjust," even though it has not yet been made public, because it is "a political indictment.”

If others are implicated as well as Trump, Giuliani said, the indictment "ain't going to leave me out."

Giuliani lamented the potential prosecution “of lawyers for attempting to do their job aggressively as we’re supposed to,” adding that he’s nonetheless “proud.”
