Senate Judiciary Committee to Review Supreme Court Ruling on Presidential Immunity for Trump

The court, now with a conservative supermajority of six Republican appointees since 2020, has faced escalating scrutiny from congressional Democrats over various issues, including its “shadow docket” and alleged “ethics crisis.” More details can be found in the original article.
