and sterilization refreshing to mock their arrival in jail, tattoos are a vital, powerful prison like that it's just as true for these monkeys as they get their id numbers, place the page forever. the, the us supreme court rules and the donald trump case that former presidents have partial immunity from prosecution. on the landmark decision means the federal interference case against donald trump will return to a lower court, letting the chances of a trial before the presidential election, the light from the headquarters in delphi, i'm getting you navigate are also coming up. they detain me without any charges.
7:01 pm
starve, beaten on torture, then is really the attention the director of causes and she felt hospital speaks about the treatment of palestinians after being released from prison. a major bridge ensued. don lincoln comes to north with the city of under mine is damaged and we examine house fis impact the future of the complex and also ahead from so as far right as close serve in efforts is forming an elective governments. but opponents hope to stop them through tactical voting in the 2nd round. the hello, the us supreme court has ruled that former presidents are entitled to absolute immunity from prosecution for official acts while in office. but they have no immunity for unofficial acts. the decision comes after lawyers for former president,
7:02 pm
donald trump argued that he should not face criminal charges for decisions made while in office trumpets facing several charges related to conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election results that the same supreme court has ruled has asked the lower court to decide whether it's for they supplies and donald trump's actions. and that makes it unlikely that trump trial will take place before the presidential elections in november. so the chief justice john roberts rhodes, that the president enjoys no one unity for his unofficial act. and not everything the president does is official. the president is not above the law, but under our system of separated powers, the presidents may not be prosecuted for exercising his hor constitutional powers. and he's entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for his official acts. and got immunity applies equally to all occupants of the oval office . well, the supreme court's decision in trump's immunity appeal could have rama could rama
7:03 pm
if occasions for future presidents. prosecutors are presented evidence showing that trump try to pressure election officials to falsely say that he won the 2020 election. and he also rallied his supporters to storm the capital building on january 6th, 2021. as a senate was certifying jo biden's electoral victory trumpet, his defense lawyers had argued that presidents must be entitled to immunity. further official acts will. despite this decision, the time it took to deliver the court judgements will likely mean that trump won't face trial until after november's election. and if he wouldn't stop vote, he can take steps to end his own prosecution. kind of joining us now from washington dc to talk us through all of this mike and tell us whether this is seen as a big win for donald. trump. will certainly donald trump, to do got it as a big wouldn't any is already said that in a post on his social media and support as of donald trump,
7:04 pm
to say that there's been decatur disposition that in the woods, it proves that the last 4 years during which these actions have been taken place, a part of a political campaign being waged by joe biden, and his supporters. so that is the way that the trump camp will be seeing this and active indication. and also that he will be able to go ahead to an election without fear of a trial on these particular charges. but this is essentially a mis reading, intangible mis reading of what the quote is actually said. what the court has said is that to repeat what john roberts said in his decision as that the president enjoys no immunity for his official x. now what this means is that the court has said 2 things here. one is that no president is above the rule, but secondly that he is above the law if what he is doing is in his coal official
7:05 pm
capacity. now the upshot of all of this is that this is going to go back to the judge in the district court. tanya shuck and we will have to go through a be a charges against trump line by line to decide what constitutes official actions and what constitutes private actions. so she's going to have to bear in mind what the court has laid out to distress. so this quote has made the decision in principle, it has not made any comment whatsoever on the actual facts of the case against donald trump. so this is something that will go back to the lower court judge who will decide what constitutes an official act. and what doesn't. that being said, once she's finished that process, which will take months and a lot of hearings, it's an old likelihood going to come back to this quote with it's built in conservative model majority that was created by donald trump himself. okay,
7:06 pm
thank you. my kind of things for reporting from washington d. c. well, the liberal justice sonya sort of mayor has written the sent note saying never in the history of our republic because the president had reason to believe that he would be immune from criminal prosecution if he can use the trappings of his office to violate the criminal law moving forward, however, all former presidents will be closed in such immunity if the occupants of that office misuse is official power for personal gain. the criminal law that the rest of us must abide will not provide a back stop with fear for our democracy. i the sense we have with those clear finkelstein who is a professor of law and philosophy at the university of pennsylvania in joining us from philadelphia. tell us why you are disappointed with this really. so this is a very significant ruling, and it's really more important for donald trump if he becomes president, that it is, in this particular case, because i think that once it goes back to the federal trial court, tonya shuck,
7:07 pm
can, will preside over a very good re manned and will be able to identify most if not all of the charges that donald trump has been charged with as acts that he committed in his personal capacity since he was seeking re election when he did those acts and that is personal capacity. but the long term significance of this ruling should not be under estimated because what it says instead of donald trump becomes president. again, he can use his official capacity in particular, his 4 constitutional functions to subvert law, to shield himself from criminal liability, to distort justice. in ways that favor himself and that within a certain core constitutional capacity, no one can gain, say what he does not even federal courts. so the irony
7:08 pm
here is the supreme court has actually weakened federal courts with this decision because they have eliminated judicial review for a whole segment of presidential actions. and that has never happened before in the history of presidential power. so it's, so it's very unusual and unprecedented ruling so. so having said that, then what could be the implications for not only former presidents, but future presidents as well as well. so that is the real import of this decision. but imagine a future president who is a 1st term president who wants to stay in office and fierce. he may lose the election. he can violate the law with impunity. he can try to distort the election, or he can interfere with the peach. but proceeding both things that serve as checks
7:09 pm
and balances on our process. and he can do so in ways that violate the criminal law and then claim that he's doing so in his official capacity. and if he's able to do so by using the court constitutional powers of his office, it won't even be reviewable by a court. so for example, the supreme court has said that removal power is part of the court constitutional power of any precedent. and that they are for such decisions, the ability to fire somebody say a special prosecutor would not be reviewable by a court. so let's say that donald trump decides to fire the special prosecutor jack smith. and that he does so to obstruct justice. this decision seems to say that donald trump would be immune to any charge of obstruction of
7:10 pm
justice based on the claim, but he's exercising his for constitutional powers. right. and that is a very serious implication. all right, thank you. so it was clear for and go find thanks for your analysis from philadelphia. thanks for having me. while the former president says re access of the supreme court's ruling on his social media platform to a social, and he's called the, this isn't a big win for the constitution on democracy. and that he's proud to be american. well, there's also been a response from the white house and we'll bring in kimberly house that was running us from there for more reaction from the white house. kimberly yeah, in fact it is coming from the bite and campaign and we have to be careful to separate. the white house is official, a business from the bite and campaign itself. so this dave is actually coming from biden's re election campaign and what they're saying is essentially they 5 this to be devastating. the supreme court ruling. and also that this really underscores the
7:11 pm
high stakes of this election. they're saying that they see this really as what donald trump in terms of this, um, the election is as his attempt to really call this a get out of jail free card or his attempt to avoid the sort of punitive nature of the sentences. and so what this statement is saying is today's decision by the supreme court of set back or democracy to mat dramatically, essentially says that if there is any plausible official explanation for anything or president does, it is not only new from further is have a cry, but it's prevented from evidence of a crime. it's a sweeping and devastating opinion for our separation of powers and our fundamental belief and ocean. no one is above the law as a campaigns. those are the points out that you have to remember. this is the only charge that is a guess, donald trump and the fact that well he may be immune from some of this. it's not all of it is going back to a lower court to determine,
7:12 pm
interpret what he can still be prosecuted for. so with regard to the charges that are still against him up in new york state, he is facing such a thing for those later this month. and that's what the campaign wants to keep on the forefront of the minds of voters that will donald trump, may think he has a when a some of this is still facing enormous number of charges and is facing sentencing this month. okay, thank you so much. kimberly, for that reporting from the white house of the a grove of palestinian prisoners from gaza were released by israel. have returned to the strip and among them as the director of and she felt hospital who was released after spending 8 months in detention. dr. muhammed up a, send me a, give a hiring account office treatments. charles stratford reports $2.00 just saluting
