the, the, this is the, the we news line from berlin, the u. s. supreme court rules that donald trump is a partially immune from prosecution. the court decides that the former presidents have absolute immunity for official acts potentially disrupting a case that alleged from trying system versus the 2020 presidential election. also on the program. hurricane barrow rips through the south eastern caribbean, bringing a life threatening winds and storm surges. officials report extensive damage on several islands in the region of frances far right inches closer to power.

national riley leader marine la pen urges motors to give her a party of governing majority after a strong showing and sundays 1st round of parliamentary elections. the, i'm fairly welcome to the program. we begin with a landmark ruling in the united states where the supreme court has granted former president donald trump some degree of immunity. they say, former presidents cannot be prosecuted for any actions that were within their constitutional powers, but can, for private acts, the justices overturned a lower course decision that had rejected crumbs claim of immunity from federal criminal charges. earlier this year, the court was asked to decide whether trump was involved in the of some prosecution

for his role in the january sites. 2021 right at lee was capital when he was still president. the timing of this ruling is important because the window for a trials happened before the november election is narrowing. now, the former president is currently facing 3 criminal charges. let me walk you through them. the 1st, as i mentioned, is a for his role in the january 6 capital riots, prosecutor is claimed on trump. so to exploit the protests, to leave the certification of president biden's victory. now in term, 2nd case concerns the classified white house documents found in his florida home, our logo. and finally, the former president in 18 others face criminal charges in georgia where he is accused of conspiring to overturn his narrow defeat in the states and one justice who objectives to the ruling. but sonya, so to my, your she has the crying did as

a mockery. thing the court's ruling effectively means presidents are above the law . in this statement, outlining her objections, she rode the relationship between the president and the people he serves has shifted era, vocally in every use of official power. the president is now a king above the law. she says with fear for our democracy, i just sent you as president july and to slam the supreme court decision warning of what it could mean for the future. today, supreme court decision, president community that's fundamentally changed for all, for all practical purposes. today's decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits or the president can do this. a fundamentally new principal. and it's a dangerous pressure because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law,

even including the supreme court of united states. feeling the limits will be self imposed by the president of law. very mcdonalds is a professor of law at the pepper bankers at school of law in california. and i asked him how he felt about the supreme court's decision. well, a little bit of disappointment because i think the ruling was a, necessarily broad. the court went into sort of areas of immunity for the president that it just didn't need to do. it created and sort of 3 categories. one was car constitutional responsibilities for which the president is absolutely noon from being prosecuted for criminal acts that he took while in office. the 2nd is sort of qualified immunity or presumptive immunity for actions that don't fall in that core area where the president actually shares power with congress. but even

there, the president, again, is sort of presumptive fully immune for being prosecuted. so the only area that is clear where the president enjoys no immunity is for unofficial or private criminal ass conducted while in office. a lot of people are asking where that line between official acts and private acts can be drawn. how can an objective distinction be made here, or it's very difficult and even the majority opinion written by chief justice roberts acknowledge that it can be very a very fuzzy line. so the court essentially said by any action taken by the president, that is arguably within the president's constitutional or statutory authority, arguably within it would constitute an official act subject to these immunity protections. which is a, you can imagine is a very vast swap of the president's actions while in office, i mean,

a purely private act, you know, might be the personal things you do while you're going to bad or getting up or something. but most of the things that the president does during the day or, you know, while he's on duty at night, are uh, you know, arguably within his official sphere responsibilities. that was professor very mcdonald from the paper to encourage the school of law. let's take a quick look now at some of the stories making headlines around the world today. israel's military, as ordered palestinians to evacuate parts of con units and southern gaza and move couldn't mean the return of ground troops to the area several weeks after they pulled out israel's militaries. as the militant group islamic jihad recently fired rockets from st. nearby columbia and police say they have arrested larry alvarez, one of the leaders of the transactional gang didn't now well over as, as wanted and ceiling and venezuela for charges, including terrorism, weapons,
