The Mar-a-Lago IT supervisor identified as “Trump Employee 4” in the latest indictment against former presidentDonald Trump and his alleged co-conspirators was reportedly informed that he’s a target of the ongoing Justice Department probe into alleged mishandling of classified records by the ex-president. According to CNN, the employee in question is named Yuscil Taveras. The outlet said Mr Taveras, who is charged with any crime at this point, subsequently met with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team of prosecutors and gave evidence that was used to obtain the superseding indictment against Mr Trump, co-defendant Walt Nauta and a newly-added third co-defendant: Mar-a-Lago maintenance supervisor Carlos De Oliveira. According to the superseding indictment, Mr De Oliveira informed Mr Taveras during a conversation at the Palm Beach social club that “’the boss wanted” the contents of a server containing CCTV surveillance records “deleted” in the days following receipt of a grand jury subpoena for video that showed the corridor outside a room where boxes of documents from the Trump White House were being stored. Prosecutors allege that Mr Taveras responded by telling Mr De Oliveira that he did not think he “would have the rights” to delete the footage in question, leading his co-worker to ask: “What are we going to do?” Mr De Oliveira is charged with conspiring with Mr Trump and Mr Nauta to obstruct the DOJ probe into Mr Trump’s alleged unlawful retention of national defence information as well as with lying to investigators about his involvement in moving boxes containing records from the Trump administration when Mr Trump moved from the White House back to his Palm Beach, Florida property. A Trump campaign statement called the charges “nothing more than a continued desperate and flailing attempt by the Biden Crime Family and their Department of Justice to harass President Trump and those around him” and accused Mr Smith, a veteran prosecutor overseeing multiple probes into Mr Trump of “casting about for any way to salvage their illegal witch hunt and to get someone other than Donald Trump to run against Crooked Joe Biden”.

Social media influencer Kai Cenat has been charged with inciting a riot and unlawful assembly after his promised giveaway event in Manhattan’s Union Square descended into violence. Thousands of Mr Cenat’s fans gathered in the park on Friday afternoon after he announced a “huge giveaway” in a Twitch livestream. The scene quickly turned violent as aerial footage showed fights breaking out, people hurling stones and chairs at police officers, climbing onto a subway station entrance and tearing down metal barriers. An unknown number of people were hurt, including several officers, and dozens were arrested. Mr Cenat, 21, who has 6.5 million followers on Twitch and more than four million on YouTube, was surrounded by hundreds of fans as the chaos unfolded before he left with a police escort and was later taken in for questioning. On Friday night, NYPD chief of department Jeffrey Maddrey announced Mr Cenat was facing two counts of inciting a riot and unlawful assembly, among other charges that were not disclosed. Mr Maddrey confirmed that there had been no coordination with police ahead of the event. Mr Cenat has not spoken publicly about the incident. In total, police arrested 65 people, including 30 juveniles. Mr Cenat announced his giveaway in a Twitch stream on Wednesday, promising to hand out computers, Play Station 5s, microphones, keyboards, webcams, gaming chairs, headphones and giftcards. “I feel like New York really deserves it,” he said. Fans began gathering in Union Square at around 3pm Friday, an hour before Mr Cenat’s anticipated arrival. The park was quickly overwhelmed as the crowds spilled into the streets, with Mr Maddrey saying: “We went from 300 kids to a couple of thousands of kids in minutes.” The NYPD activated its highest level of disaster response, Level 4, after initial attempts to clear the crowds faltered and violence exploded. A citywide alert went out for every available officer across the five boroughs — up to 1,000 officers — to go straight to Union Square to deal with the rioting. Mr Maddrey said that the teenagers broke into a construction site in the square and threw rocks, bottles, paint cans and lit fireworks at officers. “Our officers were attacked, we were crushed, we were pushed, I had officers on the floor,” Mr Maddrey said. “You had people were walking around with shovels, axes... a lot of young people got hurt.” A line of police with clubs and shields smashed through the crowd at around 4.30pm, and began to regain control of the situation, according to reporters on the ground. One police officer was reportedly jumped by rioters and severely beaten. Mr Maddrey said he had been in the thick of the riot, and suffered injuries after being hit with flying objects. “As you see I’m a little embarrassed, I’m very dirty right here. “I was in the middle of the crowd, I was hit with a couple of objects as well. I think I have a couple of injuries but I’ll figure that out when I have time to think about it. “I had officers who were hit and were hurt, but they stayed to help us resolve this.” Mr Maddrey saw young people in the crowd with severe injuries, and suffering panic attacks and anxiety attacks. “People were suffering out here. It was a lot of people, it was uncontrolled, it took us a while to get it under control, and a lot of young people got hurt.” Many of the injuries were sustained by teenagers throwing objects at one another, he added. He said police were still gauging the exact number of injuries. Earlier, CBS News New York showed live video footage showing several people had climbed onto a roof at the entrance to Union Square. “Our officers used great restraint despite the aggression they were met with,” Mr Maddrey said. The gathering was declared an unlawful assembly, and officers tried to encourage them to leave the area. “After numerous warnings and assailed, we started to make arrests and clear out the park.” Traffic was snarled in streets surrounding the square, with groups of youths climbing on top of vehicles. People could be seen pounding on the side of a bus, and climbing on top of another bus and jumping up and down. The MTA prevented subway trains from stopping at Union Square for about an hour, before resuming regular services just before 5pm. A large amount of paint was splattered across the south side of Union Square Park. Police erected metal barricades to try to push the crowd back. They issued a warning over loudspeakers: “This gathering is unlawful. You are ordered to disperse. “If you leave voluntarily, no charges will be placed against you. If you refuse to leave you will be arrested for unlawful assembly.” After Union Square quieted down, Mr Maddrey said police were continuing to monitor groups of rioters who had spread out around Manhattan. “We have encountered things like this before, but never to this level of dangerousness where young people would not listen to our commands, they were fighting each other and they were hurting each other.” “This is the power of social media, the danger of social media,” Mr Maddrey said. “We can’t allow this to happen again.” Read More Who is Kai Cenat?
