In a recent ruling, a federal judge determined that former President Donald Trump can be held liable for inciting the January 6th Capitol riot, but is shielded from prosecution in a separate case involving interference in the 2020 election. The judge cited a law that protects sitting presidents from litigation while in office, leaving Trump immune from legal consequences for his alleged role in the election controversy. Despite this setback, prosecutors are continuing to investigate the matter and are considering pursuing charges against Trump once he is no longer protected by the law.
