Supreme Court Faces Crucial Decision on Presidential Immunity Limits

The Supreme Court's recent ruling granting President Trump broad immunity from prosecution for actions within his constitutional powers has sparked concerns about unchecked presidential authority as he prepares for a potential second term. The decision, which was opposed by the court's liberal justices, raises questions about the limits of this immunity and its implications for future presidents. Critics worry it could embolden Trump to push legal boundaries, while supporters argue it prevents politically motivated prosecutions. The ruling leaves many legal questions unresolved, particularly regarding what constitutes 'official actions' entitled to immunity.
