Summary
Trump's immunity case. On Wednesday, the Supreme Court agreed to decide whether former President Donald Trump can be tried on criminal charges that he conspired to overturn the 2020 election. The case is related to charges brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith that are being heard in a Washington, D.C. federal court. Before the federal appeals court hears the case, the justices released a one-page unsigned order pausing all proceedings and asking the lower court to hold its ruling rejecting Trump's immunity claim.

| 0:53.7 | The good morning, good afternoon and good evening, and welcome to the Tangle podcast, the place we get views from across the political spectrum, some independent thinking, and a little bit of my take. |
| 1:01.3 | I'm your host, Isaac Saul, and on today's episode, we're going to be talking about former President Donald Trump's immunity as we were recording this podcast and writing it up, |
| 1:12.6 | we got some big news about Trump and Colorado and the 14th Amendment and his removal |
| 1:18.8 | from the ballot. We're going to talk a little bit about that in the quick hit section here |
| 1:22.2 | in a second. Before we jump into today's podcast, though, there are a few things we got to get out of the way. |
| 1:29.7 | First of all, on Thursday, February 29th, we wrote in our extra section, this is a correction, |
| 1:35.8 | this is one of the dumbest corrections ever, that there is a leap day every four years, |
| 1:41.1 | except on years divisible by 400. |
| 1:47.5 | Actually, there is a leap day every four years, except on years divisible by 400. Actually, there is a leap day every four years, |
| 1:55.2 | but there is not one every 100th year, except for every 400th year when there is one. |
| 2:02.3 | That's really complicated, but in an effort to be succinct, we leapt over an important qualifier and we were inaccurate. This is our 101st correction in our 239-week history, and our first |
