Two lines from the opinion, where the Supreme Court justices address the trial judge in Trump's election interference case, are getting a lot of attention
"And the parties and the District Court must ensure that sufficient allegations support the indictment’s charges without such conduct," they write.
That means that once the official acts are stripped away, the trial court must decide if there's enough still in the indictment to go forward. They're basically warning that the case against Trump may fall apart.
They also write: "Testimony or private records of the President or his advisers probing such conduct may not be admitted as evidence at trial."

May? I think they have.
Plus Justice Thomas Clarence in a separate supporting opinion questioned whether this special prosecutor office was even legal.
Case = Cases???
All one has to do is read the constitution. It’s not that tough!
liberals are too stupid to realise this helps their side also!
Now Trump wont be able to prosecute Obama for instance for weaponizing the justice department against conservative groups. Since the motives behind official acts can’t be considered now.
May? Theresa?
Yeah, she helped our Deep State—and suffered the consequences.
Soon the BBC will know MAGA ain’t going down!
Good and “democracy” will be saved!
They are panicking....they missed. They know they are likely toast. They must be hoping they get prosecuted under an official federal (leftist) system and not a citizens arrest.
As an 8th grader I was required to take a US government class, where I read the Constitution for first time. I was introduced to the concept of checks and balances, to prevent any government overreach. We were also required to pass a citenship test, to receive a passing grade. Those were the days.
But skillfully— doggedly remove every single bammy embeds and muzzies infecting our Republic. Remove them, with prejudice if it can be done.
Citizenship
The fact that this question has never been addressed in our nation’s history, demonstrates this republic is unraveling.
Leftists are trending King Bidenon twittwr. Stinking filfy Commies.
Ditto.
Amen!
It’s the “penumbra” that is tough.
The cases against Trump are falling apart, not unlike demented biden’s hopes of a 2nd term.
“I am rather enjoying that.”
You need another hobby.
