The Jan. 6 committee's new filing lays the groundwork for Trump potentially facing the same criminal charge that federal prosecutors have used against more than 240 insurrectionists.
Former President Donald Trump personally engaged in a criminal conspiracy to defraud the very nation he led and then obstructed an official proceeding of Congress, the Jan. 6 Committee argued in a legal brief Wednesday night.
Lawyers are not allowed to give advice in furtherance of a crime, and legal advice based on that premise is not privileged. "The evidence supports an inference that President Trump, Plaintiff [Eastman], and several others entered into an agreement to defraud the United States by interfering with the election certification process, disseminating false information about election fraud, and pressuring state officials to alter state election results and federal officials to assist in that effort," the legal brief released Wednesday said.
