#SCOTUS is supposed to rule this morning on #Trump’s claim that he is immune from prosecution on charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election.
The decision will determine whether & how special counsel #JackSmith’s case against Trump can proceed — although it’s unlikely a trial would happen before #Election Day. But the ruling could also set an important #precedent for how to prosecute presidents for their actions in office.
#SCOTUS’ majority said #Trump could not be prosecuted over ANY conversations w/ #DOJ leaders. This would include #JeffreyClark & the almost #SaturdayNightMassacre mass DOJ resignations over Trump’s pressure on #Justice Dept to overturn the election results.
