The U.S. Supreme Court has set April 25 as the date it will hear Donald Trump’s claim of presidential immunity from prosecution on charges related to his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss - the last day of oral arguments of its current term.

The court released its updated argument calendar a week after it agreed to take up the case and gave the former president a boost by putting on hold the criminal prosecution being pursued by Special Counsel Jack Smith. It previously had disclosed which week it would hear the matter but had not given the precise date.

The justices will review a lower court’s rejection of Trump’s claim of immunity from prosecution because he was president when he took actions aimed at reversing President Joe Biden’s election victory over him.

      Given “hurdy durrrr hiev meined lolol” is just a lazy argument to begin with, followed up with the somehow even more smooth-brained “muh ratios is muh proofs!”, why would anyone bother trying to respond? You’re unpleasant and engaging in comically bad arguments from the start. If this is your opening salvo, it’s just going to get stupider from here. I’m only responding with obvious, obvious openings because I’m looking forward to some painfully bad logic for teh lulz.
