evacuating thousands of residents in the wake of the called cut down bridge. the arrow until them your logical welcome to the program. the us department of justice has sealed the indictment against former president donald trump details $37.00 criminal charges related to his handling of secret government documents at his florida home. this is the most serious legal challenge facing from who could be looking at a lengthy prison sentence if convicted. he's the 1st president in the history of the united states to face federal charges. the and ceiling of the indictment against donald trump reveal $37.00 counts against him, including by license of the espionage ok. the claims linked to them is handling of

classified documents, many of which the f. b. i recovered from his florida home mara logo last summer. special council jack smith gave a brief statement following the ceiling of the charges. are laws that protect national defense information are critical. the safety and security of the united states. and they must be enforced violations of those laws, put our country at risk. but to us president joe biden had little to say, president 5, have you spoken to attorney general merrick the this is the 2nd time solomon president donald trump has been indicted the 1st by the state of new york over his financial affairs. he's due to a p, a in

a federal court in miami on tuesday, but he's still insisting that he will fight for the white house once again. the catherine ross is a law professor at george washington university in washington, dc. and she told us more about the details of the indictment. the vast majority of these accounts are actually from the espionage act of 1917, which remains on the books. but it's now broken up in different parts of our statutes. and it was unclear whether trump would be charged under the espionage dropped. the espionage act doesn't mean you know that your undercover spy, like in the cold war. but these are among the most serious charges that can be levied against the president. and the indictment is very, very clear about the danger this causes to us. and i must say, since i'm talking to you in germany, to our allies,

and i'm going to read from the complaint that the classified documents in the boxes included information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both the united states and foreign countries. united states nuclear programs, potential vulnerabilities of the united states and its allies to military attacks and plans for possible retaliation in response to a for an attack. the, an authorized disclosure of these classified documents could put at risk the natural security of the united states. foreign relations, the safety of the us military and human sources, and the continued viability of sensitive intelligence collection methods. these charges could not be more serious. and we're hearing a ballroom of bathrooms. that's where some of these documents were kept. see ballroom, the boxes were on the ballroom stage,

and many people had access to that ball room, the bathroom, my goodness. you know, people who keep reading materials in their bathroom, usually use it for kind of drunk reading. and again, there is no information that suggests that trump was the only person who ever use that bathroom and clearly staff for in and out of his bedroom and just scattered everywhere. and another report that i had not seen before, that at one point the boxes in the so called storage room, which was also available to many of the hundreds of members, and many of the members of the staff and 2 people wandering in and out. it wasn't always securely locked, some of those boxes fell over, the contents were scattered on the floor, right? and the, the, at the complaint includes

a photograph of highly sensitive material in those documents on the floor. and the photograph was taken by one of the trusted employees who texted it to another and basically saying, oh my gosh, look at this. that's the, that's, that's great if the locations are to be true. what does this, from a legal standpoint, mean foot from plans to run again for president next year as. okay, 1st of all, many of these accounts carry up to 20 years in prison. but what does it mean to his political future is much less clear. because in the united states, there is no law against a person under indictment or having been convicted of a crime or even currently serving a term in prison. there is no law that bars them from running for office,

or in the case of lower officials holding office. we do have cases of, for example, a mayor of a major city serving at least part of his term from jail. and it was a court battle, if trump, or reelected and disturbing a federal prison sentence whether he could serve and whether he could pardon himself, as he apparently considered doing it during his 1st term in office. first of the only term in office when there was a risk that he might be indicted. professor catherine ross there from george washington university. to turn out to ukraine and officials, they are evacuating more people in there is affected by flooding after the destruction of the massive cut called cut them. earlier this week, russia has released footage of its rescue efforts, saying it's relocated more than 5000 people from territory under his control.

them, the mother of the children died. they were found dead. just the children were not found in the plain which left to be a right assumption, of course that they're still alive. so these children lost family members on one of the 1st flights in a plane, really. so that will be a lot of trauma for them as well to recover from nicole visa, debit cards when it will have to leave it that. thank you. and that's what will leave the news business days of next with robots. thanks. watch the rising sky to be issues with a lot say well crazy the .
