Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy told Daily Wire host Andrew Klavan Friday that he believes there are “seven chances in ten” the Department of Justice (DOJ) indicts former President Donald Trump on federal charges.
On Monday, the FBI removed 11 sets of classified information from Trump’s home in southern Florida, reportedly taking some documents marked “top secret” that were supposed to be stored in government facilities. McCarthy told Klavan he believes the FBI searched Trump’s property with a “closet agenda” to look for information regarding the president’s role in the events of January 6, and that there is a good chance the DOJ will indict the former president.
“I would say that seven chances in ten he’s going to be indicted,” the National Review contributing editor told a surprised Klavan. “They may add classified information charges now that they’ve done this, but they are gunning to get him … on January 6.”
McCarthy added that he suspects the FBI had a “closet agenda” behind the search warrant that gave agents access to Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago. He said that the bureau was really looking for evidence that Trump conspired to prevent the certification of the 2020 election on January 6, 2021.
