Request to Supreme Court: Trump's Immunity Claim

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the appeal of special counsel Jack Smith, who is seeking a ruling on whether former President Donald Trump can be charged for election interference. Smith is hoping to bypass the appeals court and take the case straight to the Supreme Court to avoid delays. The court's decision to hear the case could have significant implications for Trump's presidential immunity claim and the investigation into his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
