Summary

In a stunning development, the Supreme Court not only decides to take up on appeal Donald Trump's absurd, baseless presidential immunity claim, but they won't even hear oral arguments in the case for nearly two months. And it could take them weeks or months thereafter to decide the case, making it unlikely that Trump's trial for trying to overturn the results of the last presidential election will take place before the next presidential election.

So the Supreme Court has made it clear that they will not allow the rule of law to assist in saving American democracy. Of course, the rule of law did not save American democracy in 2020 when Trump tried to steal the election. It was the American voters that saved democracy. And it will be up to the voters to save democracy again come November 2024.

It's time for Justice Matters with former federal prosecutor and MS NBC analyst Glenn Kirchner. The Supreme Court has chosen to take on Donald Trump's immunity claim.

0:19.0

But are they trying to help him stall his January 6th trial until after the election?

0:24.8

Here's Gwen.

0:26.6

So friends, as I'm sure you know by now, the Supreme Court just did an enormous favor for Donald Trump at the expense of the

0:37.4

American people because the Supreme Court has said they're going to take up this absurd claim by Donald Trump

0:46.1

that he has absolute presidential immunity. He can commit all the crimes he wants while in office against the American people.

0:58.4

He can order the assassination of his political opponents with complete impunity, complete immunity against prosecution.

1:07.3

The Supreme Court said, we've thought about it, a good long while, and yes, we're going to take that issue up on appeal but the

1:17.0

Supreme Court said you know what we'll get around to hearing oral arguments in the

1:22.2

case and in about two months and after that there's

1:28.6

no telling how long it will take for us to decide the issue.

1:34.6

Could be weeks later, could be months later.

1:39.6

So at this point, friends, there's no telling.

1:42.3

If Judge Tanya Chutkin, who's presiding over

1:46.3

Donald Trump's criminal prosecution in Washington, D.C. for trying to overturn the

1:52.4

results of the 2020 presidential election, trying to

2:14.1

such that the American voters will get to know

whether they're voting for a convicted felon who tried to criminally
