5. The Trump indictment revealed that members of the president’s own family were involved in his campaign, including Donald Trump Jr. and Jared Kushner.

6. The indictment revealed that Russian hackers had been attempting to influence the 2016 election since 2014, long before anyone suspected interference from foreign actors.

7. The indictment outlined how Russians used social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter to spread misinformation about Hillary Clinton and other candidates during the election.

8. The indictment also discussed how Trump associates had contacts with Russians during the presidential transition period in late 2016 and early 2017, raising questions about possible collusion between the two sides.

9. Despite what many expected, there was no evidence of direct coordination between Russia and the Trump campaign or any alleged conspiracy in the indictment.
