Special counsel Jack Smith had to take a hammer to some parts of his election subversion case against former President Donald Trump after the Supreme Court’s sweeping ruling that Trump had at least some presidential immunity in the prosecution.

But with the superseding indictment handed up by a grand jury on Wednesday, prosecutors also used a scalpel to reshape their allegations, making subtle edits, along with big changes.

Trump’s infamous Rose Garden video from January 6, 2021 – and the efforts by others leading up to it to convince to Trump he needed to tell the Capitol rioters to leave – has been removed from the indictment. Smith, however, has added new details about Congress’ certification process and what role Vice President Mike Pence was playing in it, in attempt to bolster other aspects of the case.
