BREAKING NEWS: What does the Supreme Court immunity ruling mean for Trump? 6 questions answered as The court’s three liberal justices dissented…full story below

In a historic decision, the Supreme Court ruled Monday that former presidents have at least some immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts” in office, no matter their “politics, policy, or party,” but stipulated that that protection doesn’t cover everything.

The court’s three liberal justices dissented. Monday’s decision “reshapes the institution of the Presidency” and could lead to stark, long-term consequences for American democracy, Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote.

While the lower court has the job of working out the specific parameters of the high court’s decision, one thing is clear: For Trump, the ruling is a victory. He and his legal team have sought to dismiss or delay the four ongoing criminal cases against him. And this latest Supreme Court ruling makes it hard to see how the federal 2020 election case could go to trial before the next Election Day.

Soon after the court’s decision was released, the former president declared in all caps on his social media network, “Big win for our Constitution and democracy. Proud to be an American.”
