"Trump Seeks Broad Immunity from Criminal Prosecution in 2020 Election Case"

Former President Donald Trump is urging the Supreme Court to grant him broad immunity from criminal prosecution for acts taken while in office, arguing that the "long history of not prosecuting" his predecessors demonstrates that the power to do so does not exist. The Supreme Court is set to review a decision from the federal appeals court in Washington that found Trump can be prosecuted for alleged attempts to subvert the transfer of presidential power after the 2020 election, with arguments scheduled for April 25. The court's eventual decision on presidential immunity will have far-reaching implications for the presidency itself, and could impact Trump's ongoing criminal cases in New York and South Florida.
