Revised Indictment Against Trump: Key Points

Donald Trump Faces Revised US Indictment in Election Subversion ... Case

Former President Donald Trump is facing a revised federal indictment over his alleged role in subverting the 2020 election. The new charges focus on Trump's actions as a candidate, rather than as president. The case has been presented to a new grand jury, with allegations related to pressure on the Justice Department removed after a Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. Trump, who is seeking election as a Republican candidate against Democratic VP Kamala Harris, has pleaded not guilty to all charges. The election is scheduled to take place on November 5th this year. Special counsel Jack Smith filed the revised indictment, which alleges that Trump conspired to overturn the election and includes charges of defrauding the US and obstructing the certification of the January 6th election. The case is unlikely to reach trial before the November election, and Trump's legal team is attempting to delay the proceedings. Trump has called the new indictment an act of desperation and part of a witch hunt against him. He has appealed his conviction in New York for illegal payments to a porn star and maintains his innocence in all cases.
