LISTEN LIVE: Supreme Court arguments begin over Trump’s claim of absolute immunity from prosecution
bostonherald.com/2024/04/25/listen-live-supreme-court-arguments-begin-over-trumps-claim-of-absolute-immunity-from-prosecution/
Quick Glance: US Supreme Court discusses Trump's Immunity
- Conservative US Supreme Court justices signal sympathy for the argument that presidents have some immunity against criminal charges for certain actions taken in office.
- Former President Donald Trump appealed after lower courts rejected his request to be shielded from four election-related criminal charges.
- The Supreme Court hearing could distort the presidency without immunity and affect decision-making when bold and fearless action is most needed.
- The Supreme Court's decision on immunity is expected and could lead to Trump's trial occurring before the election.

Quick Glance: Summer Lee Secures Key Victory in Pennsylvania Primary
- Pennsylvania congresswoman Summer Lee successfully navigated a primary challenge on Tuesday, securing progressives one of their most crucial wins of this election cycle while preparing for an influx of pro-Israel funding targeting candidates supportive of a ceasefire.
- During the primaries, Lee emerged victorious against local council member Bhavini Patel, who had raised concerns about the stance of the progressive “Squad” member on the Gaza ceasefire.
- The resonance of this argument was evident among many of Lee’s supporters and local Democratic figures. The Allegheny County Democratic party formally endorsed Lee in February, marking their support for her for the first time after having backed her opponent in the 2022 primaries.
- Despite the pro-Israel lobby staying out of the picture, a Super Pac intervened in Lee’s primary to bolster Patel’s campaign. The Moderate Pac, with a mission to back centrist Democrats and significant funding from Republican megadonor Jeffrey Yass, allocated over $600,000 to support Patel.
