Analyzing Supreme Court Decision on Presidential Immunity and Core Powers

On a special episode of Stay Tuned, Preet Bharara is joined by his CAFE Insider co-host and former U.S. Attorney, Joyce Vance, CAFE contributor and CNN senior legal analyst, Elie Honig, and CAFE contributor and NYU law school professor of constitutional law and administrative law, Rachel Barkow. They break down the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity and the implications for the Trump criminal prosecutions. Why did the Court rule in favor of Trump? Will special counsel Jack Smith’s case against Trump be able to move forward? And how might the decision impact Trump’s New York conviction and the charges against him in Georgia and Florida?

They also discuss other high-profile Supreme Court rulings related to January 6 prosecutions and the so-called “administrative state.” 

In the bonus, exclusively for members of CAFE Insider, Preet and the group analyze the Supreme Court ruling that preserved, for now, access to emergency abortions. Sign up to listen.
