The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to grant former President Donald Trump partial immunity from criminal prosecution for actions taken during his time in office, while unofficial acts remain prosecutable. Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the majority, emphasized that a President cannot be prosecuted for exercising core constitutional powers and enjoys at least presumptive immunity for official acts. The decision, which has profound implications for Trump's ongoing legal cases, particularly those related to election interference, will require lower courts to determine which actions are protected. The ruling drew sharp dissent from the liberal justices, with Justice Sonia Sotomayor warning that it elevates the President above the law. Trump celebrated the decision, framing it as a victory against what he calls political persecution. Legal experts caution that the ruling will complicate both federal and state prosecutions, potentially delaying trials until after the 2024 election.
