SCOTUS to Rule on Trump's Immunity Monday

News summary

The U.S. Supreme Court is set to rule on Monday whether Donald Trump has immunity from criminal prosecution for his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. Legal experts and sources indicate there is 'zero chance' the court will grant Trump absolute immunity, but the decision may still delay his trial past the November election. The ruling comes after the court's recent decision in Fischer v. United States, where it narrowed the application of obstruction charges related to the January 6 Capitol riot, potentially affecting Trump's case. The Supreme Court's decision may hinge on whether Trump's actions were part of his presidential duties or as a private citizen, with profound implications for presidential accountability. Meanwhile, several Capitol riot defendants, including Jeremy Daniel Groseclose and Thomas 'T.J.' Robertson, may see reduced sentences due to the court's reinterpretation of the obstruction statute.
