(The Center Square) – A federal appeals court sided with prosecutors Tuesday, ruling that former President Donald Trump doesn’t have presidential immunity to shield him from charges of election interference in his Washington D.C. case.
“For the purpose of this criminal case, former President Trump has become citizen Trump, with all of the defenses of any other criminal defendant,” the three-judge panel wrote in a unanimous decision. “But any executive immunity that may have protected him while he served as President no longer protects him against this prosecution.”
