Appeals court denies Trump's immunity claims in election interference case
A federal appeals court has unanimously ruled that Donald Trump can be put on trial for trying to stay in power after losing the 2020 election, rejecting Trump's sweeping claim of presidential immunity and moving the case one step closer to a jury.
"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," the panel of three judges wrote. "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."

- Ban from doing business: She also asked for "permanent [real estate] industry bars" on Trump, and five-year bans on Trump's two adult sons. What the judge ruled: Trump has been banned from doing business in New York for three years, and his sons for two years.

Poor Donny. I can see the begging emails dropping already...
I have family in America. They are not Trump supporters but they used to say the number of mails begging for donations and lottery scams was unreal. One way or another he will find a way to grift the money for this from his lunatic supporters.
Fair to say The Donald doesn't agree with the verdict........
