Ex-Trump aide testifying before Miami grand jury: report
A former spokesman and advocate for former President Donald Trump will testify Wednesday before a federal grand jury in Florida as part of the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.
Taylor Budowich, who now runs the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA, Inc., arrived with his attorney Stanley Woodward at the federal courthouse in Miami to testify to a grand jury convened by special counsel Jack Smith in his investigation of the former president's handling of sensitive government records, reported CNN.
The grand jury in southern Florida has heard testimony from multiple witnesses in recent weeks, following months of testimony in the investigation before grand juries based in Washington, D.C., leading to speculation that Trump could be charged in both jurisdictions or that some of his associates may be charged.
Trump's attorneys met Monday with officials at the Department of Justice to argue that he should not be indicted, which is widely considered to be a sign that Smith's investigation may be nearing its conclusion.
