him here. He was totally wrong that he had the right to have those documents. Those documents

are among the most sensitive secrets that the country has. They have to be in the custody

of the archivist. He had no right to maintain them and retain them. And he kept them in a way

at Mar-a-Lago that anyone who really cares about national

We'll go through the many, many new developments tied to the indictment.

And it comes as Trump's rivals for the 2024 Republican nomination rally to his defense.

At least for now, we'll have those comments.

is claiming some initial small victories over Russian forces.

Good morning and welcome to way too early on this Monday, June 12th.

I'm Jonathan Lemire.

Thanks for starting your day.

And week with us, it's going to be a busy one.

We'll get right to it.

Our top headline, former president Donald Trump is scheduled to appear in a Miami courtroom tomorrow, following his indictment in the Mar-a-Lago documents investigation.

The former president is set to depart from his Bedminster resort in New Jersey this morning and arrive in Miami later this afternoon.

He'll stay at his Doral Golf Club tonight.

Then at 3 p.m. tomorrow,

he'll be arraigned on 37 federal criminal counts in a Miami criminal court. After his arraignment, Trump will fly back to Bedminster and deliver public remarks tomorrow evening.
