A federal grand jury met in Washington D.C. on Special Counsel Jack Smith's Jan. 6 and election interference investigation, but a court official told Fox News that the panel is not expected to hand up any indictment stemming from the probe Thursday.
Former President Trump's legal team met with Smith and his team at the special counsel offices on Thursday morning, in anticipation of a possible federal indictment against the 2024 GOP front-runner.
Sources told Fox News that Trump's legal team was not given any specific timing about a possible indictment, but that they had heard nothing suggesting an indictment would not happen at some point."My attorneys had a productive meeting with the DOJ this morning, explaining in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country," Trump wrote.
Trump announced last week that he had received a target letter from the Justice Department, which also asked that he report to the federal grand jury. Trump said he anticipated"an arrest and indictment." "They’re in a rush because they want to interfere. It’s interference with the election — it’s election interference," Trump said during a town hall on Fox News with Sean Hannity last week."Never been done like this in the history of our country, and it is a disgrace what’s happening to our country — whether it is the borders or the elections or kinds of things like this, where the DOJ has become a weapon for the Democrats.
