A new indictment has been filed against Donald Trump over his efforts to undo the 2020 presidential election that keeps the same criminal charges but narrows the allegations against him.
The new indictment was filed by special counsel Jack Smith.It removes a section that had accused Trump of trying to use the law enforcement powers of the Justice Department to overturn his election loss, an area of conduct for which the Supreme Court in a 6-3 opinion last month said that Trump was absolutely immune from prosecution.
Mr Clark's support for Trump's election fraud claims led Trump to openly contemplate naming him as acting attorney general in place of Jeffrey Rosen. Trump ultimately relented in his plan to replace Mr Rosen with Mr Clark "when he was told it would result in mass resignations at the Justice Department", according to the original indictment. Mr Rosen remained acting attorney general through to the end of the administration.
