Federal prosecutors argue that former President Donald Trump committed crimes in an attempt to retain power after losing the 2020 election. The court filing, submitted by special counsel Jack Smith's team, asserts that Trump is not entitled to immunity from prosecution, as his actions were private rather than official. The filing aims to persuade Judge Tanya Chutkan to keep the charges in the indictment, which include attempts to influence former Vice President Mike Pence regarding the electoral vote certification.
