Donald Trump “resorted to criminal means” to retain the presidency after losing the 2020 election.
The new charges come from special counsel Jack Smith, who does not want the former US president to be able to claim immunity for his actions after the 2020 presidential election.
Smith on Wednesday filed a brief with the court deciding the case in which Trump is accused of trying to have the results of the 2020 election overturned.
“Despite the fact that the defendant was sitting president during the time the indictment applies, his actions were fundamentally private,” write the prosecutors.
If Trump is convicted, he risks a maximum of 20 years in prison.

Concerns about external influence on the US election have been widely discussed, but now the US government’s cyber security chief has reassuring news.
In an interview with the AP news agency, Jen Easterly says that the technical systems are now so robust that none of America’s rivals, such as Russia and Iran, have the opportunity to get into them and influence the election results.
– Malicious actors would not, even if they tried, be able to influence on such a scale that it would mean a significant effect on the election results, Easterly, director of the agency for cyber and infrastructure security, told the AP.

Jimmie Åkesson debates against Magdalena Andersson in SVT’s Aktuellt about the Swedes who remain in Lebanon while the situation escalates.
Jimmie Åkesson wonders “what on earth are they doing there”.
– We have many people with Swedish passports who should not have Swedish passports. You have been asked to go back to Sweden, but you are still there, he says in SVT and continues:
– So you have come to Sweden as a refugee and then you have gone back to a country you fled from. Then I wonder what on earth you do there when you live here?
On the objection that you can visit relatives, Åkesson says:
– You might think so, but then the reasonable question is, didn’t you run away from there? I think it’s remarkable and we should do something about this that so many people have Swedish passports who shouldn’t have them.
