Trump's Legal Woes Continue to Mount Amidst DOJ Overreach and Indictments.

The use of the Espionage Act to prosecute former President Donald Trump for mishandling classified information is a dangerous overreach by the government, which has a long history of using the Act to crack down on political dissidents. While the indictment may reveal Trump's vanity, it does not show any intent to harm national security. The government's use of the Espionage Act is a familiar tactic to "count stack" and get convictions on some counts. However, even if the Espionage Act charges fail, Trump still faces six other counts, including obstruction of justice.
