The U.S. Supreme Court extended the delay in the Washington criminal case against Donald Trump on charges of plotting to overturn his 2020 election loss, making it unlikely for Trump to be tried before the November election. The Supreme Court also kept a hold on efforts to limit social media platform regulations in Texas and Florida. Trump's claim of absolute immunity from prosecution was highly skeptical by the Supreme Court.
