Lauro criticized the charges for being a “regurgitation of the allegations in the January 6th report” and defended his client’s actions on and leading up to January 6th. John Lauro, Trump’s co-counsel in the January 6 case, told Fox News that Trump was indicted for simply saying “what he believed in and the policies and the political speech that he carried out as president.” Trump has rejected any suggestion he was in the wrong after the 2020 election. The indictment also says that Trump had deceived many rioters to believe then-Vice President Mike Pence could change the election results to make Trump the victor. “As violence ensued, the Defendant and co-conspirators exploited the disruption by redoubling efforts to levy false claims of election fraud and convince Members of Congress to further delay the certification based on those claims,” according to the indictment. The indictment alleges that Trump and co-conspirators “exploited” the January 6 attack on the US Capitol by continuing efforts to convince members of Congress to delay the certification of the election.

Trump ‘exploited’ January 6 attack, prosecutors say “Lies by the defendant targeted at obstructing the bedrock function of the US government nation’s process of collecting, counting and certifying the results of a presidential election.” “The attack in our nation’s capital on January 6 2021, was an unprecedented assault on the seat of American democracy, and as described in the indictment, it was fueled by lies,” Smith said in a brief statement. Smith told reporters that he will seek a “speedy trial” and encouraged members of the public to read the indictment. Even before that, Trump engaged in an unprecedented pressure campaign toward state election workers and lawmakers, Justice Department officials and even his own vice president to persuade them to throw out the 2020 results. The plot to overturn the 2020 election shattered presidential norms and culminated in an unthinkable physical assault on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, as Congress met to certify President Joe Biden’s victory. “But the defendant disseminated them anyway – to make his knowingly false claims appear legitimate, create an intense atmosphere of mistrust and anger, and erode public faith in the administration of the election.” “These claims were false, and the Defendant knew they were false,” it adds, referring to Trump. Trump indicted in special counsel's 2020 election interference probe 'This unfortunate situation will not discourage or detract me from working to build back the trust in our community and return our students safely back to school as soon as possible,' he wrote.Former President Donald Trump during a rally at the Erie Insurance Arena in Erie, Pa., on July 29, 2023. Hetrick wrote in his letter that more information on the school district's reopening plans will be available 'in the coming days.' 'The students, staff and families deserve the very best, there is much work that needs to be done to reopen our schools safely and I will be praying that we as a community can move past this incident together and that our children always remain in focus.' 'I tendered my resignation because I don't want to be a part of something that would negatively impact my community,' she continued. 'As a 30-year resident of Oakley, I have always championed the kids in the community from Boy Scouts, to PTA service, to my own teaching career.' 'My remark was callous and uncalled for and for that I am truly sorry,' she wrote in part.

Brizendine, a four-year member of the board, also apologized in a statement to the Mercury News for her 'babysitting' comment, which she said she made in part because she 'desperately' wants schools to open for in-person learning.
