TL;DR Summary

The U.S. Supreme Court has denied former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows' request to move his Georgia election interference case to federal court, where he claimed immunity from prosecution. Meadows, indicted alongside 18 others for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election results, argued the case should be in federal court due to his role as a federal official.
