Superseding Indictment Filed Against Trump in Election Case
News summary

A new superseding indictment has been filed against former President Donald Trump in relation to allegations of election interference following the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity. This revised indictment, presented by Special Counsel Jack Smith, is nine pages shorter and emphasizes Trump's actions as a candidate rather than as president, removing references to official acts and private conduct. Legal analysts, including Mary Trump and Professor Jen Taub, have noted that the revisions were necessary to comply with the Supreme Court's decision, which granted presidents broad immunity for official acts. Former Judge J. Michael Luttig, who had previously reviewed the indictment, highlighted areas that needed adjustment post-ruling. The changes have been criticized by some, including Jeffrey Clark, who argued that the indictment is politically motivated. Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges and labeled the case a 'witch hunt'.
