Former President Trump says he has been indicted over what he calls the "boxes hoax." In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said that he has been summoned to appear at the federal courthouse in Miami on Tuesday. Prosecutors decided to indict Trump for his alleged mishandling of classified documents and obstruction of the government's attempt to retrieve the documents after a months-long investigation by special counsel Jack Smith.       Donald Trump Junior is reacting to news of former President Trump's indictment over the handling of sensitive documents. In a tweet Thursday, Trump's oldest son said "We're living in a 3rd world Banana Republic." He added that "the only way to stop what the corrupt Biden DOJ" is doing is to put Trump back in the White House.       Forecasters say the wildfire smoke blanketing the Northeast may start lifting tonight. Air quality alerts have been posted across the region after smoke from Canadian wildfires created hazardous breathing conditions. Meteorologists say the smoke has settled over the Northeast because a stationary low pressure system has been steering a persistent wind southward into the U.S.       More than twenty teenagers are hurt after a deck collapsed at a park in Southeast Texas. The collapse happened this afternoon at Stahlman Park in Surfside Beach during a summer camp event. Officials said 21 victims between the ages of 14 and 18 were taken to the hospital.       Half of American adults say they disapprove of affirmative action. A Pew Research Center survey shows that half of Americans don't think colleges and universities should take prospective students' racial and ethnic backgrounds into consideration. A Supreme Court decision is expected this month on the issue, based on two cases involving Harvard and the University of North Carolina.       The Florida Panthers are looking to get on the board tonight against the Golden Knights in the Stanley Cup Final. Game Three of the best of seven series is taking place in Sunrise. Florida is down two-oh after losing the first two matchups in Las Vegas.
