continue to follow breaking news and an extraordinary request by special counsel jack smith at the supreme court decide to whether the former president have immunity from prosecution for alleged crimes he committed while in office, this will be the first time the high court could weigh in on the historic prosecution of the former president. joining us now is a senior supreme court analyst job is cubic and paula reid. so, paula, this is a pretty aggressive move from the special counsel. what is the play? that is exactly right, this is the first time the special counsel jack smith has gone to the supreme court, he is asking it to decide if the former president is immune from criminal prosecution. that is a constitutional question that has never been decided, but really what is at stake is the timing of trump s first criminal trial. trump has been litigating this issue of immunity, he lost at the district court level and signaled he would appeal, the next stop would usually be
all so much for joining us on this very busy news hour. we are still watching that race in virginia very closely. and de and a news night with abby, phillip starts right now virginia is not for lepers, at least not tonight. that s no, i don t need sign cnn breaking news good evening. i m abby phillip in new york, down to the wire or thousands of republican voters in a district of 800,000 people in virginia are now rendering a verdict. it is technically about two men, bob good and john maguire. but it s about something else. what donald trump prizes most what he s always valued above all else is loyalty. and bob good, the chairman of the freedom caucus and house, a band of congressional hardliners that has fought hard for the mega agenda inside of congress is not good enough for trump. good found himself on the opposite side of the primary race with trump and the reason and it s pretty simple, good. wanted ron desantis to be the republican presidential nominee, not donald trum
