The appeals panel swatted down Trumps immunity claims, very clearly and decisively, which was predictable. Their language is quoted below because it’s good stuff.

On the subject of SCOTUS, on the immunity issue I predict they will simply decline to hear Trump’s appeal, thus letting the appeal court verdict stand. Bookmark it!

”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 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.”
