Judge denies Trump petition to dismiss hush-money case over immunity claims
Everything here is all alleged....
"Welcome to Allegedly The News, your source for trending stories and hot takes that keep you in the know. I’m [Your Name], and as always, everything here is all alleged. Let’s jump into today’s headline-making story."
A federal judge has ruled that Donald Trump does not have presidential immunity in his hush money conviction case.
Here’s what you need to know:
Trump’s legal team argued that his actions — specifically, the payments allegedly made to silence claims of extramarital affairs — should be protected under presidential immunity. However, the judge disagreed, saying those actions were not part of his official duties as president.
The case stems from Trump’s alleged payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 election. Prosecutors claim these payments were part of an effort to influence the election’s outcome, which raises concerns about campaign finance violations.
Trump fired back, calling the decision a “political witch hunt” and vowing to appeal. His team maintains that the charges are politically motivated as he continues his run for the 2024 presidential election.
With this ruling, the legal battle is far from over. Appeals are likely, and the decision could set a precedent for holding former presidents accountable for actions taken outside their official roles.
This case will be one to watch as Trump faces multiple legal challenges while remaining a central figure in American politics.
