For 234 years of american history, no president was ever prosecuted for his official acts. A landmark hearing as the Supreme Court considers whether donald trump has absolute immunity against criminal prosecutions from his time in office. If theres no threat of criminal prosecution, what prevents the president from just doing whatever he wants . Could it further delay his federal election interference trial . Plus, the big developments in trumps socalled hush money trial. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Good evening. Im norah odonnell, and thank you for being with us. We want to begin tonight with the Supreme Court and the unprecedented case of president ial immunity before the justices. At issue is whether former President Donald Trump is immune from criminal prosecution for what he claims were official acts while in office. The decision will have major implications on the special counsels election interference case against trump as well as this years president ial race. Trump wasnt at todays oral arguments at the Supreme Court. He was in a courtroom in Lower Manhattan, where he is mandated to appear for his trial for falsifying Business Records to hide an alleged affair. In addition, trump is facing criminal trials in georgia and florida, and in just the last 24 hours, trump was named as an unindicted coconspirator in arizona and michigan over fake elector schemes. We have Team Coverage of todays major developments, and cbss jan crawford will start us off from the Supreme Court. Reporter in nearly three hours of historic arguments, the justices emphasized their decision will go beyond former President Donald Trump. Whatever we decide is going to apply to all future president s. Reporter no president has ever faced criminal prosecution, and some justices, while emphasizing a president is not above the law, focused on what precedent the case will set. The history tells us its not going to stop. Its going to cycle back and be used against the current president or the next president or the next president and the next president after that. I am concerned about future uses of the criminal law to target political opponents. Reporter trump is arguing he has absolute immunity as president from prosecution for official acts during his tenure in office, including efforts to overturn the 2020 election. He made the point again before entering a new york courtroom on trial today in one of four criminal cases against him. A president has to have immunity. This has nothing to do with me. Reporter but that sweeping argument of absolute immunity is one the justices, liberal and conservative, seemed almost certain to reject. If the potential for criminal liability is taken off the table, wouldnt there be a significant risk that future president s would be emboldened to commit crimes with abandon while theyre in office . The framers did not put an immunity clause into the constitution. Wasnt the whole point that the president was not a monarch and the president was not supposed to be above the law . Reporter instead, the justices appeared to be focused on a middle ground where president s may have some immunity from prosecution for official acts as Justice Clarence thomas asked at the very beginning of the argument. How exactly would we determine what an official act is . Reporter that question may take time. The court has never decided it, but the clock is ticking if special counsel jack smith can prosecute trump before the election. And jan joins us now. So if the justices rule that he has some limited immunity, how long could this take . Whats the timeline . Reporter well, norah, i wouldnt expect a decision before june. Its a complicated case, and the justices know its going to be the law long after they leave the Supreme Court. But thats what special counsel jack smith asked for. He actually said the justices should expedite this case so that they could have a decision by the end of the term. So thats what theyre doing to do. Whether or not this is going to go past too long before an election will be held in november, thats going to be up to how the court writes it and whether there are still issues left for lower courts to resolve. Norah. Really interesting. Jan crawford, thank you. Instead of being at those Supreme Court hearings, donald trump was in a courthouse in Lower Manhattan for his socalled hush money trial. Thats where we find cbss robert costa. Good evening, robert. Reporter good evening, norah. Former President Donald Trump isnt attacking david pecker, the former publisher of the National Enquirer, just yet, but peckers testimony here today in Lower Manhattan could threaten trump, offering new details about an alleged catch and kill operation to influence the 2016 election. This morning, former President Trump weighed in on a key witness in his criminal trial. Former National Enquirer publisher david pecker. Hes been very nice. I mean hes been davids been very nice. Hes a nice guy. Reporter trump has known pecker for decades, and prosecutors allege the pair, along with former trump lawyer Michael Cohen, engaged in a conspiracy to suppress negative stories about trump as he ran for president in 2016. Pecker told jurors just after the access Hollywood Tape surfaced weeks before the election i just start kissing them. Reporter discussions about what to do with Stormy Daniels heated up. The adult film star was, according to pecker, shopping the story of her alleged affair with trump. Pecker testified he didnt have the 120,000 she wanted, so he to
