Trump asks Supreme Court to overturn $83 million verdict in E. Jean Carroll case

Jean Carroll. They're arguing that a 2024 ruling granting broad immunity to sitting presidents should protect Trump from such lawsuits. This move underscores the ongoing legal battles Trump faces and raises questions about presidential accountability and the limits of executive immunity. The case is significant as it could set a precedent for future lawsuits against current or former presidents.
