LEGAL: “Lawyers for former President Donald Trump have asked a federal appeals court to throw out a case alleging interference in the 2020 election, arguing that he is immune from prosecution.
“Under our system of separated powers, the Judicial Branch cannot sit in judgment over a President’s official acts,” they wrote in a brief filed Saturday night with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.”
