2/6/24 source (link): "Court rules Trump does not have immunity from 2020 election subversion prosecution"
Also: https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/06/politics/takeaways-donald-trump-immunity-appeals-court/index.html
A couple of additional excerpts:
"We cannot accept former President Trump’s claim that a President has unbounded authority to commit crimes that would neutralize the most fundamental check on executive power — the recognition and implementation of election results. Nor can we sanction his apparent contention that the Executive has carte blanche to violate the rights of individual citizens to vote and to have their votes count."
And,
"“Former President Trump lacked any lawful discretionary authority to defy federal criminal law and he is answerable in court for his conduct,” the panel of judges wrote."
