"Supreme Court Sets Deadline for Response in Trump's Election-Interference Trial"

The US Supreme Court has given special counsel Jack Smith one week to respond to Donald Trump's request to delay his election interference trial, in which Trump argues he should be immune from prosecution as a former president. The trial, originally set for March 4, was paused pending the resolution of the presidential immunity issue. Trump's lawyers argue that allowing a former president to be charged would set a dangerous precedent and interfere with the presidency's ability to function impartially.
