The Supreme Court is set to rule on whether former President Trump has immunity from criminal charges related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The court will also rule on whether Trump supporters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 can be prosecuted for obstructing the congressional certification of Joe Biden's election win. A third related case before the court concerns whether former Trump adviser Steve Bannon can delay his trial for criminal contempt of Congress charges while he appeals his conviction. The outcomes of these cases could impact narratives around the Supreme Court's conservative supermajority. The court is expected to issue more decisions this week before wrapping up its term at the end of June or early July.
