Former president and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump pleaded not guilty on Thursday to the racketeering charges brought forth by Georgia’s Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. 

Details: Trump waived his right to an in-person arraignment to hear his charges read aloud. In the court filing, Trump’s lawyer requested the former presidents’ case be separated from his 18 co-defendants scheduled to face trial starting on October 23, arguing the prep time was insufficient and would “violate President Trump’s federal and state constitutional rights to a fair trial and due process of law.”

For Context: Earlier this month, a Georgia grand jury charged Trump with racketeering and election interference in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election. Last week, Trump surrendered to authorities in Fulton County and had his mugshot taken. In addition to Trump, 18 other individuals were also charged with similar crimes in the indictment, including Trump’s former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani. This case is one of four indictments Trump currently faces. Trump also faces charges from the Manhattan District Attorney pertaining to alleged hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels, as well as two indictments from the U.S. Department of Justice— one pertaining to the alleged mishandling of classified documents and one pertaining to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, which Trump lost to President Joe Biden.

How the Media Covered It: Trump’s plea is being covered mildly across the spectrum, most prominently in left-rated sources.

Former President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to charges in his election interference case in Georgia on Thursday.

Trump chose to waive a formal arraignment appearance and instead pleaded not guilty in a court filing. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis charged Trump and 18 others for allegedly attempting to subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

A date for the Georgia trial has yet to be set, but Trump's lawyers have pushed to delay proceedings. Willis, however, has pushed to hold the trial as soon as this fall.

Former President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty on Thursday and sought to sever his case from other defendants who are accused along with him of illegally trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee had set arraignment hearings for Trump and the 18 others charged in the case for Sept. 6. A court filing waiving arraignment means Trump won’t have to show up for that.

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday pleaded not guilty to criminal charges related to his efforts to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory in Georgia and waived his right to appear at his arraignment next week, according to a court filing.

Trump’s arraignment on 13 felony charges is scheduled on Sept. 6 at 9:30 a.m. ET in Fulton County Superior Court in Atlanta.
