The Supreme Court justices have returned to the bench for their new term. They will immediately confront a series of challenging cases. These cases are not just about old laws; they are about the very nature of presidential power in the United States.
Many of these legal challenges are directly connected to former President Donald Trump. His time in office raised new questions about the limits of executive authority. The court must now address these difficult issues.
At the heart of the court's agenda are questions about immunity and official duties. Can a president be held legally responsible for actions taken while in office? This is a central question the justices must answer.
The outcomes of these cases will be significant. They will not only affect the former president but will also set rules for all future presidents. The court's rulings could change the balance of power between the different branches of government.
