Newsweek - President Donald Trump has reminded the Supreme Court that it gave him almost absolute immunity last year and the "unrestricted power" to fire federal officials. The statement came in his appeal to the Supreme Court after a lower federal court blocked him from firing special counsel Hampton Dellinger.
On July 1, 2024, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Trump, and any other president, had absolute immunity for core presidential actions and presumptive immunity for noncore presidential acts.
The current
appeal that Trump has taken to the Supreme Court is the first real test
of that presidential power since Trump resumed office on January 20.
