Supreme Court could end up delaying the Jan. 6 trial past the election

This week on Trump's Trials, host Scott Detrow and Domenico Montanaro are joined by constitutional expert Kim Wehle.

This week the Supreme Court announced they will consider former President Donald Trump's claim that he is immune from criminal prosecution. That decision has left the federal election interference case in limbo, complicating the chances that the case will go to trial before the November election.

Topics include:
- Timeline for federal election interference case
- Why the Supreme Court is considering Trump's immunity claim
- Justice Clarence Thomas and recusal
- Update on classified documents case
