Federal appeals Judge Karen LeCraft Henderson grilled attorney John Sauer as he argued that former President Donald Trump was entitled to absolute immunity from indictment for election subversion.

During Tuesday oral arguments before the United States Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit, Henderson became frustrated with Sauer.

Prosecuting Donald Trump is going to open a “Pandora’s box” of pain on the country, his lawyer told appeals court judges Tuesday.

"To authorize the prosecution of a president for its official acts would open a Pandora's box from which this nation may never recover," D. John Sauer said at the start of the hearing in Washington, D.C., which is considering the former president’s claims that he should be immune for criminal charges.

Many of Donald Trump's critics, from Never Trump conservative Charlie Sykes to "Real Time" host Bill Maher, have been warning that the 2024 GOP presidential frontrunner could provoke a constitutional crisis.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama, in a recent interview for the podcast "On Purpose," told host Jay Shetty that she is "terrified about what could possibly happen" in this year's election and warned, "We cannot take this democracy for granted."

Due to his multiple legal headaches, Donald Trump doesn't have any rallies scheduled in Iowa as the state's caucuses approach. One way he's making up for the gap is by employing some conservative allies to do his campaigning for him, The New York Times reported.

"To start its efforts in January, the campaign last week held events with Gov. Kristi Noem of South Dakota, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Eric Trump, one of Mr. Trump’s sons," The Times' report stated.

Donald Trump’s new argument that he should be immune from being criminally tried in Jack Smith’s election interference case because he’s already been acquitted in an impeachment hearing is a “stone cold loser,” an expert said Tuesday.

CNN’s legal analyst Elie Honig was talking as Trump arrived in a Washington, D.C. appeals court to hear his lawyers argue that he should have political immunity in the case because he was acting his official capacity as president.

Donald Trump will appear in court on Tuesday and watch as his lawyers make the case that he has a kind of special presidential immunity that protects him against prosecutions for purportedly official acts he took as president.

Andrew Weissmann, a former senior prosecutor to Robert Mueller, explained that the Justice Department would be arguing that there is no doctrine of presidential immunity for presidents when it comes to a criminal case, regardless of what is happening in a civil capacity.

Donald Trump is putting a bullseye on President Joe Biden.

The former president posted a nearly six-minute video late Monday night to air grievances over his beef with Biden and directly warned the president he has a window of time to find wrongdoing.

Donald Trump's co-defendant, Michael Roman, is attempting to stop the Georgia case with a new filing that legal experts characterize as worse than a Hail Mary.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Monday that in a filing, Roman alleges that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis hired an alleged romantic partner to work on her team and that she financially benefitted from "the clandestine personal relationship."

In an interview posted Monday on Mike Lindell's new streaming network, Donald Trump told disgraced former Fox Business host Lou Dobbs that he really hopes the economy crashes as soon as possible.

While Americans are climbing out of the economic fall in 2020, numbers have slowly improved, charts posted by the Washington Post explain. Inflation is continuing to go down. Employment continues to go up. After Republicans blamed President Joe Biden for high gas prices, those have fallen.

Special counsel Jack Smith now has clear and devastating insight into former President Donald Trump's intent and mental state during the attack on the U.S. Capitol, argued former House January 6 Committee investigator Tim Heaphy on MSNBC Monday.

This comes amid new reporting that a key Trump campaign official gave Smith testimony that Trump didn't care if the violence at the Capitol stopped.

While many in the world were celebrating the birth of Christ, followers of Donald Trump planned a "swatting" attack on special counsel Jack Smith.

NBC News reported Monday evening that two law enforcement sources confirmed someone called police pretending to be from Smith's home and claiming there was an attack. The goal of the attacker is to rile up police enough that they might shoot first and ask questions later, accidently killing the target or someone in the target's family.
