"Supreme Court's Decision on Trump's 2024 Ballot Eligibility Looms"
TL;DR Summary
The US Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a case challenging a Colorado ruling that disqualified Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot due to his actions surrounding the January 6 insurrection. Justices appeared skeptical of states' authority to disqualify federal candidates without Congress' permission, with Chief Justice Roberts warning of potential attempts to disqualify candidates from the other side. Trump's attorney argued that only Congress can decide a candidate's removal, while plaintiffs' attorney emphasized Trump's "engagement" in insurrection. The decision will be issued at a later date.
