## Transcript

Former President Donald Trump is charged in a new indictment by special counsel Jack Smith related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. This new indictment still keeps intact the same original four charges. However, it narrows the allegations against him, and that's because the Supreme Court in a opinion last month conferred broad immunity on former presidents. And it said that one element of the indictment in particular, namely Donald Trump's interactions with the Justice Department as efforts to involve the department in trying to overturn his election loss. The Supreme Court said, all of that is conduct for which Trump is entitled to absolute immunity because that is conduct that constitutes an official act.

And so what the Special counsel's office has done is get a new grand jury to issue a new indictment that removes from the original charging document, all of the allegations that relate to the Justice Department. This doesn't really change anything visa V the timing, but it represents the government's first effort to conform and comply with the Supreme Court's opinion, but we are still looking at an impossible scenario of a trial taking place in 2024. That's really off the table, given the work that's still ahead to narrow the indictment still even further and determine what is an official act and what is not an official act.
