Trump has become the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges.
Donald Trump was indicted by a Manhattan grand jury on Thursday, becoming the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges.
It was not immediately clear what the indictment was connected to, or what charges Trump will face. The indictment is under seal.
Trump is expected to surrender in New York City early this week, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle took to Twitter to react to the historic indictment on Thursday evening, laying bare the sharp partisan divide when it comes to Donald Trump.
GOP House and Senate members decried the investigation by the Manhattan district attorney as a political prosecution.
Many Democrats, on the other hand, praised the decision as proof "no one is above the law."

Former President Trump is expected to surrender in New York early next week, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
While a day has not been firmed up, sources said that Tuesday is the day being discussed by Trump's legal team and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said in a tweet that the House GOP will use its power to hold Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg "and his unprecedented abuse of power to account."
"The American people will not tolerate this injustice," McCarthy said, adding that Bragg has "weaponized our sacred system of justice against President Donald Trump."
House Republicans have requested documents and testimony from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office in its investigation of Trump, but Bragg has said he won't comply.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office said in a statement that it has contacted former President Donald Trump's attorney "to coordinate his surrender" for arraignment on a state Supreme Court indictment, noting that it remains under seal.
"Guidance will be provided when the arraignment date is selected," the office said.
