"Judges Skeptical of Trump's Immunity Claim in Court Hearing"

Three federal appeals court judges appeared to lean toward rejecting Donald Trump's claim of immunity from criminal charges related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. The judges expressed skepticism about the legal reasoning behind Trump's argument that presidents cannot be prosecuted for actions taken in office, with one judge stating that it was paradoxical to suggest that a president's duty to execute laws allows them to violate criminal laws. Trump's lawyer's assertion that the only way to hold a president accountable for crimes was through impeachment proceedings was also met with skepticism by the court.
