What does the Supreme Court's immunity decision mean?
On this special bonus episode of Civics 101, we talk about the Supreme Court’s decision on July 1st in the case of Trump v United States. The court ruled along ideological lines; it was a 6-3 decision that granted former president Donald Trump - and any president - some degree of immunity. But it's a long opinion, and a complicated one.
To explain all of it, we reached out to Dr. Claire Wofford, an Associate Professor of Political Science at College of Charleston.
