The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on Trump immunity case. It basically it says immune on official presidential actions but not unofficial. It’s confusing but it basically sends the case back to the lower court but it delays any consequences to Trump, at least until after the 2024 general election and puts weight on the lower court judge.
The RNC in Milwaukee is this month. Attendance is expected to be lower than expected...
