Donald Trump target in Jan. 6 investigation, predicts arrest and indictment in Jack Smith probe

WASHINGTON - Donald Trump confirmed Tuesday he is a target of a federal investigation into the insurrection of Jan. 6, 2021, and could be indicted soon for efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his supporters' attack on the U.S. Capitol.

In a written statement, Trump said Special Counsel Jack Smith sent a letter "giving me a very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and Indictment."

The former president, a 2024 presidential candidate who has already been indicted twice this year, did not say whether he would appear before this grand jury. Trump did not detail what specific charges may be pending, and said his attorneys spoke to him Sunday night about Smith's letter.
