Trump's Legal Battles Escalate to Supreme Court Ahead of 2024 Election

The US Supreme Court, now with a 6-3 conservative majority cemented by former President Donald Trump, is set to hear several politically explosive cases that could impact the 2024 presidential election. These cases involve disputes over Trump's role in the January 6th Capitol attack and his eligibility to appear on state ballots. The court's handling of these cases could determine the success or failure of similar efforts in other states. Additionally, the court has been pulled into criminal prosecutions facing Trump, including his claim of immunity from prosecution and a defamation lawsuit. Despite its conservative leanings, the court is not expected to show pro-Trump bias.
