Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Sweeping Immunity Claims
Arguments Heard on Election Subversion Case
Washington, AP
The US Supreme Court on Thursday appeared likely to reject former President Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity in the federal election subversion case.
The arguments centered around Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election, including his attempts to pressure state officials to change the results.
The court heard arguments from both sides, but the justices seemed skeptical of Trump's claim that he was immune from prosecution while acting as president.
If the court rules against Trump, it would be a significant blow to his efforts to avoid accountability for his actions.
