Special Counsel Jack Smith has charged former President Donald Trump with additional criminal counts in his investigation into Trump’s handling of classified U.S. material after leaving office.

The former president was charged with one additional count of willful retention of national defense information and two additional obstruction counts stemming from alleged attempts to delete surveillance footage at Mar-a-Lago after investigators had delivered a subpoena to Trump seeking the materials that he had in his possession.

REMEMBER: Trump has repeatedly, emphatically pointed to his provision of security footage to investigators as evidence he has nothing to hide. https://t.co/uPY2TONSYI pic.twitter.com/21b6BvP0d3
