Episode notes

There has been a report that there are 34 specific charges against Trump in this case, which sounds like a lot. One explanation I've heard for this is that there were 11 Hush Money payments. They could be essentially triple counted. And then there might be one other charge on top of that of conspiracy or something like that. We won't know for sure until we see the actual indictment.

Donald Trump is the first US president to be indicted. Now what? Vox’s Andrew Prokop explains.

This episode was produced by Haleema Shah and Amanda Lewellyn with help from Avishay Artsy. It was edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey and Cristian Ayala, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram.
