The previous indictments took place in April and June,\u200c with the latter indictment centering on his handling of classified \u200bdocuments after\u200b leaving the Oval Office in 2021.<\/p>\n<h3>Trump&#8217;s Perspective<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;I think from Donald Trump\u2019s perspective, though, he really couldn\u2019t ask for a better split \u2064screen to \u200bdrive home the\u200b argument that\u2064 he&#8217;s making around all of \u2062this, which is that the\u200c Justice Department is coming \u2064after him way too \u2062aggressively, that they&#8217;re targeting him specifically,&#8221; \u2063Bedford said\u200d during\u200d an appearance on\u200c Fox News. &#8220;You\u200d have prosecutors in the case of Donald Trump having \u2062really aggressive interpretations of statute, allowing them, for example, \u2064to strip away \u2062Trump\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/attorney-client-privilege-federal-prosecutors-for-sdny-working-to-seize-rudy-giulianis-emails\/\" title=\"\u201cAttorney-Client Privilege?\u201d \u2013 Federal Prosecutors for SDNY Working to Seize Rudy Giuliani\u2019s Emails\">attorney-client privilege<\/a> in the classified \u2062documents\u2064 case and\u200c a lot of other, sometimes even questionable interpretations of the law to try and sort of get Trump.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bedford went on to say that, on the other \u2063hand, \u200bthere is &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sarah-bedford-claims-trump-couldnt-ask-for-a-better-split-screen-over-dojs-investigation\/\" title=\"Sarah Bedford says Trump has the perfect split screen with DOJ's investigation.\">pretty \u2064clear evidence<\/a>&#8221; that the Justice \u200cDepartment is &#8220;pulling its punches&#8221; investigating its case \u200bon the Biden family. She then added that the department has some &#8220;really generous interpretations of statute&#8221; to help the Biden family \u2062out of trouble.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I think that split \u200dscreen may actually end up helping Trump,&#8221; said Bedford.<\/p>\n<p>Some lawmakers in the House\u2062 of Representatives have floated the idea of impeaching President Joe Biden over\u2064 alleged corruption, and the president&#8217;s\u2062 son, \u200dHunter Biden, is facing his own set of legal challenges.\u2064 On Wednesday,\u200d Delaware federal District Judge\u200d Maryellen Noreika threw a &#8220;curveball&#8221; and said she was not ready to accept a plea agreement that would have resolved tax and gun charges against the younger Biden.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And actually, I&#8217;m not surprised that the judge had a problem with it,&#8221; said former White House chief of staff Karl Rove. &#8220;Think about that:\u200b &#8216;Give\u200d me a free pass on anything that you\u2064 may \u200dnot have been able to pin on me so far, \u2064but \u2064that you may find out about me\u200d in\u200d the months ahead.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the expected third\u2063 indictment centering on\u200c the\u2064 Capitol riot, special counsel Jack Smith\u2019s office recently\u200d contacted Gov. Brian \u2062Kemp (R-GA) \u200cin relation \u200cto\u2064 the investigation of Trump\u2019s alleged efforts to overturn\u2063 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/what-is-going-on-minnesota-and-wisconsin-both-had-89-90-turnout-something-that-is-highly-unlikely\/\" title=\"What is Going On?
