Revised indictment accuses Trump of trying to overturn 2020 election

06:07

Federal prosecutors have issued a revised, pared-down indictment against former President Donald Trump, accusing him of plotting to overturn the 2020 election. The changes were made following a landmark Supreme Court ruling in July that grants former presidents broad immunity from prosecution for official acts.

Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes speaks with Barbara McQuade, law professor at the University of Michigan, former U.S. attorney appointed by former President Barack Obama, and author of the book “Attack from Within: How Disinformation is Sabotaging America."

This segment aired on August 28, 2024.
