US Supreme Court ruling on Trump immunity looms

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The US Supreme Court is expected to rule Monday on the most highly anticipated decision of its term — a ruling 'for the ages' on whether Donald Trump, as a former president, is immune from prosecution.

Even if the ruling is likely to reject Trump's claim he should enjoy absolute immunity, the decision will be key in whether his trial for conspiring to overturn his 2020 election loss can go ahead before this year's election, in which he is the Republican candidate.
