and ai, the shortcut to quicker and cheaper diagnoses — scientists in sweden say it can accurately detect 20% more breast cancers than screening by radiologists. will not get some reaction from the from sweden —— we will. good evening. if the special counsel's case is upheld, then donald trump orchestrated one of the most sensationalfrauds in the history of the united states, a litany of lies and conspiracy fuelled by a desperate attempt to cling to power. in a 45—page, four—count indictment, prosecutorjack smith dispenses with any notion that the former president believed his claims of election fraud. "the defendant he says knew that they were false and lied about them anyway," to instil, he says, a "national atmosphere of mistrust and anger, and to erode public faith in the administration of the election". there are millions of trump supporters who embraced the narrative that this is political persecution, but for trump, there is now significant legaljeopardy. impeached twice, arrested twice, charged in three criminal cases and soon to be indicted in a fourth in the state of georgia. our north america editor sarah smith reports. die—hard trump supporters were anything but distraught as they learnt of the latest charges against him. these people do believe he's being unfairly persecuted, but also that he can beat the rap. he's going to beat the case. i think it's helping his popularity. most people believe he's a martyr, you know, just being persecuted, and i think he'll get more votes. i pledge allegiance! keeping a vigil outside a washington prison that houses some of the january 6th rioters, they think this largely democratic city will be hostile territory for a trump trial. do you think that if a dcjury finds donald trump guilty, am i going to think that that was legitimate? laughter no! i, donald john trump do solemnly swear... president trump swore to defend the constitution of the united states. but now he's accused of spreading lies and deceit, in a desperate attempt to stay in power, despite knowing he had lost the 2020 election. the police are now running back... the violent attack on january 6th was, say prosecutors, the result of his prolific lies, as he deliberately created nationwide mistrust and anger. the attack on our nation's capitol on january 6th 2021 was an unprecedented assault on the seat of american democracy. as described in the indictment, it was fuelled by lies. lies by the defendant, targeted at obstructing a bedrock function of the us government, the nation's process of collecting, counting and certifying the results of the presidential election. mr trump claims he is being politically persecuted and that his treatment is reminiscent of nazi germany in the 1930s. why did they wait two and a half years? you know why? because he's leading in the polls! because they're afraid of him becoming president and dismantling the uniparty! dismantling the deep state! the indianola parade in iowa always features gary leffler. he went to support trump in washington on the 6th ofjanuary, but didn't break into the capitol. the democrats, their new playbook is to whoever the republican nominee is, they're going to try to press criminal charges on them. i don't like it, but, you know, that's the way they decide to do it. this state will be the first to pick a republican candidate, so voters here follow politics closely and were fully expecting mr trump to be charged with trying to overturn the election. given all the legal troubles that there are right now, . i don't think that he's a viable candidate. i and every time he gets indicted, his poll numbers seem to go up and he gets more popular, more people want him to be president. because he has people believing that this is all deep state against him, and he's there protecting them from the deep state that's going to take over this country. donald trump insists he will continue his presidential campaign, even if he is convicted and jailed for trying to overturn the results of the last election. sarah smith, bbc news, washington. let's cross to washington, dc. imagine security is tight whether or not donald trump shows up. find imagine security is tight whether or not donald trump shows up. and we've seen before when _ not donald trump shows up. and we've seen before when we _ not donald trump shows up. and we've seen before when we covered -

will he enter a plea? well, he's very likely to plead not guilty i very likely to plead not guilty because that's what he's done previously. if you look at all the reactions that he's been giving just before the indictment, even today on social media, he is making it very clear that he has done nothing wrong, he is leaning in on that support that we always see him get as we heard there. that he is the victim of a political witch hunts. and it does work. we've seen that with his supporters. we know dc is a very liberal city. there have been some people who have been protesting about donald trump. one man turned up about donald trump. one man turned up in an orangejumpsuit with about donald trump. one man turned up in an orange jumpsuit with a donald trump mask in handcuffs. we don't expect to see him in handcuffs, by the way. two men walked past and said what about president biden, what about his son? they should be locked up as well. we're seeing those polarisations already on the eve of his arraignment.— already on the eve of his arraignment. already on the eve of his arraiunment. ~ . .., ,, already on the eve of his arraiunment. ~ . u, ,, , arraignment. what can you tell us about the judge — arraignment. what can you tell us about the judge in _ arraignment. what can you tell us about the judge in this _ arraignment. what can you tell us about the judge in this case? -

essentially, he sets out five chapters to this story. he says first of all, donald trump didn't know that he lost the election and he can prove that with some of the testimony that the committee put forward. second, he launched the strategy to impose his own slate of electors. he then weaponised the justice department. he then pressured vice president mike pence to do something that they knew was unconstitutional, and finally, he brought all that on january the 6th, which brings us to the violence. that is a very straightforward story isn't it to follow? i that is a very straightforward story

pence kept a contemporaneous note of what was happening inside the white house. you would imagine that when it does come to trial, those two are going to play a very key part. thea;r going to play a very key part. they are, but what's _ going to play a very key part. iie: are, but what's fascinating going to play a very key part. iier are, but what's fascinating is mike pence obviously released a statement last night. he was still very careful about the way he spoke about it. he said that donald trump asked him to do something against his constitutional duty, which is correct, and he pivoted tojoe biden and said we should be focusing on joe biden and the mess he's making of the economy and so forth. today, he's more or less repeated that. mike pence is trying to vie for the presidential nomination for the republican party, and he's way behind. donald trump is the clear favourite. but this is some of the criticism that you're seeing of the republican party by the democrats, which is that they aren't condemning donald trump for this, that this indictment — unlike the other two, you could argue — is more than albatross. we saw the in the midterms. republicans did not do as well as expected. they won the house by small majority, but they didn't get the senate. part of that was blamed on donald trump using this, pushing this claim of election fraud, fielding election deniers who didn't win their races. that put out the electors. while donald trump may be popular with his base and with republican voters, i think the big question that's coming — is this a reckoning for the american election? will they look at all of this? this indictment from georgia and all the criminal cases that are piling up against donald trump which i played out, will they look at all of this and decide they want to return this man to power? i think that's the question we are going to constantly ask in the run—up. flan question we are going to constantly ask in the run-up.— ask in the run-up.

to| of take a step back? i just want to look at the co—conspirators, because we mentioned them and we don't fully know their identity, but we can put some sort of quote to the quotes that we are ready know some of these people have given in the course of their testimony. our reporter azadeh moshiri has been looking at the document and taking us through some of the key lines. we're talking about a its—page indictment, so let's look at the key takeaways. and remember, donald trump denies any wrongdoing throughout. now, prosecutors aren'tjust looking at one event. they're not just looking at the attack on the us capitol, for example. they're looking at donald trump's words and actions in a two—month period, since shortly after the election day in 2020 to the day he left office in 2021. now, the thrust of the indictment is prosecutors are accusing donald trump of a broad conspiracy to keep him in power even after he was defeated byjoe biden. now, they say he did this by spreading "pervasive and destabilising lies" and that he repeated those claims to "create an intense national atmosphere of mistrust and anger". the reason all this language is important because what they are trying to prove and what is key to their case is intent. and to prove intent, they need to prove that donald trump knew what he was saying was not true. now, let's look at the legaljargon itself. the first charge is conspiracy to defraud the united states. now, that has to do with the way the government collects, counts and certifies votes, and they're saying donald trump allegedly tried to interfere with that. next, these two charges are related — conspiracy to obstruct and official proceeding, obstruction of an obstruction of an official proceeding. now, both of these relate to the electoral college votes being counted onjanuary 6th and the voting certification process that they say donald trump allegedly tried to obstruct. and finally, conspiracy against rights of citizens. that's about the right us citizens have to vote and have their votes counted, and they're accusing donald trump of allegedly trying to interfere with those rights. now, another interesting takeaway in the indictment comes to co—conspirators. they say there are six. now, they're not naming them nor are they charging them, but based on publicly available information, the bbc has been able to piece together who some of them are. the first is rudy giuliani, a well—known member of donald trump's legal team. now, he has said that this indictment is "an abomination", and his own lawyer has said it does appear he is co—conspirator one in the indictment. the bbc has also identified john eastman, a constitutional lawyer who was part of donald trump's team. and according to us media, they're speculating that the others could include sidney powell, who is a conservative lawyer who was part of his legal team, jeffrey clark, a former department ofjustice lawyer, as well as kenneth chesebro, a lawyer. now, the sixth one has not been identified yet. now, legal experts are saying a key defence for donald trump could be the first amendment right to free speech. as far as donald trump is concerned, right now, he's calling the indictment part of "an un—american witch—hunt against him". maggie hayman of the new york times said an e—mailtrump maggie hayman of the new york times said an e—mail trump adviser forest at scene said to rudy giuliani... it looks like he might be co—conspirator number six. apparently they were on a conference call in december after a statement was demanded on the electors. some other news from maggie heyman, amanda, that shortly after he was indicted, donald trump had a private dinner with the top leadership at fox news, who are lobbying him to take part in the first leadership debate in a month. what you make of that? it's a it'sa campaign it's a campaign that he's clearly going _ it's a campaign that he's clearly going to — it's a campaign that

becomes the slam dunk candidate because he looks like the marta. we know republicans think about the courts. his support get stronger. we know the gop would like to compare what's going on with donald trump to hunter biden, the case against him, possibly may be an impeachment of president biden. it would seem to me that the political strategy is to say to independents is that they're both the same. that's what gives donald trump the best chance in the election. ., , election. two things here. one, i auree election. two things here. one, i agree with _ election. two things here. one, i agree with

sorry to push you, we are just out of time. thank you both very much. we are going to have a special at nine o'clock. we'll have some other news right after break. hello there. this is not the sort of weather we'd get this time of the year usually, and we have to wait until later, next week for any significant improvements. until later, next week for any now, today, earlier on, we had gusts of 60mph on the isle of wight — the winds are not as strong now, along the south coast of england. and there was some sunshine around as well here and there in between the downpours. and this was the radar from earlier on — we had some thundery downpours developing across some southern parts of the uk, and that more persistent rain across northern parts of england keeping it particularly chilly here. and it's all been due to yet another area of low pressure that steered right over the uk — and that was storm patricia, named by the french met service, with greater impacts across that part of europe. but things are going to calm down as we head into the night because the strong, gusty winds will continue to ease, the more persistent rain and thunderstorms move away, it does turn drier — some clearer spells developing later on in places, as well, and temperatures by dawn around about 11—13 celsius. storm patricia, that area of low pressure will be heading into southern scandinavia, taking the wet and windy weather with it. and then, as we head into thursday, the wind direction changes. we get a cooler north—to—northwesterly breeze, but it may well be a dry day for many places. there'll be some sunshine, particularly early on. cloud will build up, though, almost anywhere could see a shower, and some of them will be heavy and thundery — especially, i think, across southeast scotland and northern parts of england. but if you get a bit of shelter from that northerly wind, places like glasgow could see temperatures up to 20 celsius. it should be warmer in the southeast, as well, with fewer showers around here. but that's not really the story on friday — again, most of the showers down the eastern side of england, thundery downpours developing in the southeast and east anglia this time. probably not quite as windy on friday, and many western areas will have a dry day with some sunshine. but again, it's not that warm — 18 celsius in belfast, 19 in cardiff at best here. still cooler air over the next few days, because the jet stream is to the south of the uk, and then, it'll come right over the uk — and that means we could see another area of low pressure heading our way by the time we get into saturday. another weekend, another area of low pressure, more wet and windy weather, a bit like today. the worst of it across england and wales. hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. a gunman who killed 11 people at a synagogue in pittsburgh in 2018 is sentenced to the death penalty. sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. we're going to start in australia and new zealand at the women's world cup where it's been a day to remember forjamaica and south africa — who have both upset the odds to reach the knockout stages. having had to crowdfund just to get to the tournament jamaica were able to hold brazil to a goalless draw in theirfinal group game in melbourne to book their place in the last 16 for the first time. that means brazil and their 6 time world player of the year marta are heading home. and if you wanted to know how much it meant to jamaica — have a listen to their captain post match. we fought for each other, now i believe that we believe in ourselves! cheering france top that group after beating panama but they had to come from behind. marta cox scoring panama's first ever goal at the tournament and what a goal it was. an absolute piledriver, they ended up scoring three in total but france plundering six, including a hat—trick for kadi diani. in group g, south africa are through after claiming their first women's world cup win with a thrilling victory over italy.
