JUST IN: Supreme Court Delivers Powerful Judgment On Trump Ahead Of US Election

On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a very significant judgment on former US President, Donald Trump, who is seeking to return to the White House.

The apex court ruled that Trump can claim immunity from prosecution for charges related to election subversion regarding actions taken in his official capacity as President. The Court clarified that while Trump may assert immunity for official acts, he remains subject to potential prosecution for unofficial actions.

According to the Supreme Court’s decision, “Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, a former President is entitled to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. He is entitled to presumptive immunity from prosecution for all official acts.” However, the Court emphasized that there is no immunity for unofficial acts.

Previously, lower courts had rejected Trump’s attempt to dismiss the election subversion charges on grounds of presidential immunity. The Supreme Court’s ruling noted that while some allegations against Trump are straightforward, others present more complex legal questions.
