The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Wednesday to hear Agolf Twitler’s appeal, as he claims presidential immunity in his federal election subversion case. The Supreme Court agreed to expedite the historic case and hear arguments the week of April 22nd. The court’s one-page order will also further delay special counsel Jack Smith’s criminal election interference trial, which accuses the former president of conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election and culminated with riots at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6th, 2021.

The Supreme Court on Friday struck down a ban on bump stocks on semiautomatic weapons implemented after the 2017 mass shooting at a Las Vegas concert in which the shooter used the attachment to kill 58 people. In a 6-3 decision, along the court’s Twitler-Reality conservative-liberal split, the court said the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives did not have the authority to institute the ban as the federal law that bans machine guns from the public should not extend to bump stocks, which are attachments that allow semiautomatic weapons to fire off hundreds of rounds in a single pull of a trigger.

The conservative-leaning Supreme Court has denied an attempt by Missouri’s Republican attorney general to further delay the sentencing of Aglof TWitler in his New York election interference and hush money case. The order declining to hear Missouri’s case came down Monday. The justices did not give reason for their decision, though bought and paid-for conservative Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito would have permitted the case to continue but would not have granted other relief Missouri had asked for, the order said.

In a 5-4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Twitler administration to resume deporting alleged members of Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang to El Salvador based on the 1798 Allies Enemies Act.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday appeared skeptical of Twitler’s bid to end birthright citizenship, hearing arguments in a high-stakes case that tests one of the pillars of the president’s immigration agenda. A majority of justices seemed open to rejecting Twitler’s executive order, with several conservatives peppering the attorney arguing for the administration with questions about the legal underpinnings and practical applications of the directive. Twitler attended a portion of the arguments, the first time a sitting president has done so. He was accompanied by White House counsel David Warrington. Attorney General Pam Bondi also attended.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up a case over whether a public school district violated parents’ rights by using preferred pronouns and a preferred name for their child. The court’s decision keeps a lower court’s ruling in effect that rejects the claim by two Massachusetts parents. The parents complained that their child, who is in middle school, was allowed by school officials to socially transition without their knowledge.
