Donald Trump’s lawyers seek complete immunity from prosecution|@AnnevanLeur|X
The Supreme Court heard oral arguments yesterday by Donald Trump’s lawyers, who seek complete immunity from prosecution for alleged crimes during his presidency, particularly related to attempts to overturn the 2020 election results.
While liberal justices cautioned against unchecked presidential power, the conservative majority seemed open to safeguarding former presidents, fearing repercussions for future leaders if Trump were tried.
A decision is anticipated by June.
Meanwhile, Trump faces a separate trial in New York, where the judge refused to pause proceedings for his Supreme Court hearing.
