  • One area of feverish activity in the transition from President Biden to President-elect Trump is federal judgeships, and the Washington Post reports on a new wrinkle. Three judges appointed by Democratic presidents have made the unusual decision to reverse their decisions to retire in the wake of Trump's election win.

The article from MSN discusses a significant legal development involving former President Donald Trump. Three Democrat-appointed judges from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals have made a rare unanimous decision to reject Trump's claim of immunity from prosecution for actions taken during his presidency. This ruling pertains to Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, specifically his involvement in the events leading up to the January 6 Capitol riot. The judges' decision marks a pivotal moment as it allows for the possibility of Trump facing criminal charges for his post-election conduct, potentially setting a precedent for how former presidents can be held accountable for their actions while in office. The case now moves forward, with implications for Trump's legal battles and the broader political landscape.
