The AP is live outside the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, where former President Donald Trump is expected to depart for his arraignment Thursday.
Trump was indicted this week on felony charges alleging that he tried to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. The indictment comes as a result of an investigation conducted by special counsel Jack Smith, who previously indicted Trump in a separate case involving classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump is flying to Washington before heading to US District Court for his 4 p.m. ET appearance. He is expected to speak after the appearance, before he departs to return to Bedminster, New Jersey.
He is scheduled to appear before Magistrate Judge Moxila Upadhyaya. Handling the case going forward will be federal District Judge Tanya Chutkan, according to CNN.
Trump is expected to be placed under arrest, processed and likely arraigned in court. Because Trump has already been processed in the federal system for his arrest in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, his booking today is likely to be streamlined.
