Supreme Court Set to Issue Opinions on Abortion, Gun Rights, and Trump's Immunity

In a major development, the Supreme Court is expected to issue one or more opinions this morning at 9:45 a.m. EDT. Among the key cases being closely watched by Americans are those related to abortion rights, gun rights, and the Justice Department's case against former President Trump. The conservative court has been known for striking down major federal regulations, from environmental rules to the Biden administration's COVID vaccine mandate and more. It is currently debating whether to kill a longstanding doctrine that gives federal agencies an advantage when their policies are challenged in court. If this doctrine dies, courts will likely block significantly more executive actions, particularly environmental regulations. The court also has cases related to restraining orders for domestic violence and social media platforms' content moderation. In the case of former President Trump, the court is set to decide on his claims of 'absolute immunity' from criminal prosecution. Stay tuned for updates as the Supreme Court releases its decisions.
