JUST IN: Donald Trump has been indicted on and pled not guilty to a slew of criminal charges, including 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree, according to the unsealed court records released on Tuesday afternoon.

Manhattan Judge Juan Merchan announced the felony charges during Trump’s initial court appearance on Tuesday afternoon, marking the first time a former president has been criminally charged in U.S. history. Trump pleaded not guilty to all 34 counts. The charges come one day after Trump arrived in New York for the criminal proceedings, which the former president has repeatedly denounced as being baseless and politically motivated.

Law enforcement in New York have increased security detail around the courthouse ahead of Trump's appearance, with Mayor Eric Adams warning protesters not to get too rowdy — specifically calling out Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene , who will lead a protest outside the courthouse on Tuesday. “Delusional [Eric Adams] is trying to intimidate, threaten, and stop me from using my 1st amendment rights to peacefully protest the Democrat’s unconstitutional weaponization of our justice system against our top Republican Presidential candidate, President Trump,” she said in a tweet.
