Special counsel, Jack Smith, who has been attempting to prosecute Trump for subverting the 2020 election, has filed a new indictment in the January 6th case with changes that relate to the presidential immunity ruling.
As you may recall, the Supreme Court in their immunity ruling held that presidents get absolute immunity for acts exclusively within their constitutional purview. They get presumptive immunity for all official acts and no immunity for unofficial acts.
Now, the DOJ has a standing policy to not prosecute sitting presidents, so if Trump were to prevail in this election, there's basically no chance that this goes anywhere until heโs out.
A lot hangs in the balance in this next election. Democrat and Republican party leaders will even tell you that our entire democracy hangs in the balance. But for Trump, this election has just become so much more personal for him. You know, it's just so crazy.
