Trump immunity ruling could shatter Georgia RICO case – Washington Examiner
The Supreme Court‘s ruling this week that presidents have some immunity from criminal prosecution came in response to arguments Donald Trump made about his case in Washington, D.C., but the decision could also dramatically affect the former president’s case in Georgia.
The high court ruled that a lower court judge will have to sift through Trump’s federal election interference indictment to determine which acts are official and private. Judge Tanya Chutkan will then have to decide which of Trump’s official acts are absolutely immune from prosecution and which are only presumptively immune. A judge in Georgia may eventually have to do the same.
It is unclear how this tedious process, which legal experts say could evolve into a mini-trial of its own over the next few months, will affect Trump’s four charges in Washington, but the Supreme Court provided guidelines that suggest special counsel Jack Smith’s case will be significantly weaker once immunized acts are excised from it.
Of Trump’s four criminal cases, the one in Georgia is the most similar to the one in Washington. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis alleged Trump and 18 co-defendants violated the state’s racketeering laws by attempting to overturn the 2020 election illegally in a battleground state that Trump narrowly lost.
Willis’s sweeping indictment featured dozens of acts that, when looked at as a whole, result in an alleged violation of Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. The acts included Trump having phone calls or meetings with state lawmakers, posting false statements on his X account about the election while he was still president, and communicating with officials in his Department of Justice.
The Supreme Court outlined in its guidance that a president’s communication with the DOJ is a core function of the office and must always be immune from prosecution. Other acts, such as a president’s communication with state officials or his public statements, could be immune from prosecution, but a lower court judge must decide that under the Supreme Court’s new framework.
As with Smith’s charges, the Supreme Court’s ruling threatens to imperil Willis’s indictment depending on what the judge in Georgia determines are official acts.
Unlike in Washington, where prosecutors and Chutkan can quickly forge ahead to address immunity in the case, the Georgia case has another layer of problems.
Judge Scott McAfee, the Fulton County Superior Court judge presiding over Trump’s case, ruled earlier this year that Willis was not disqualified from the case after Trump and his co-defendants argued a relationship she had with a prosecutor created an irreversible conflict of interest.
Trump appealed McAfee’s decision, and now the Georgia Court of Appeals has taken the judge’s decision under review.
Trump also requested several months ago that his case in Georgia be dismissed because of presidential immunity, and McAfee said he would wait until the Supreme Court issued its decision before he addressed Trump’s request.
Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, a Georgia-based lawyer who specializes in elections, noted that the Georgia appellate court likely will not address Trump’s appeal about disqualification until the first quarter of 2025, meaning McAfee currently does not have jurisdiction over the case to make decisions about immunity.
“It is very unlikely that the trial court will even have jurisdiction to rule on this motion or to have its own mini-trial prior to the election,” Lawrence-Hardy said Monday on a call with reporters.
She observed, however, that Trump’s immunity argument to the Supreme Court “very closely tracks the briefing in this case,” suggesting the case will undergo the same mini-trial exercise as the one that is anticipated in Washington.
It is also unclear how the Supreme Court’s ruling will affect Trump’s co-defendants. It could have zero impact on some, but others, such as former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark and former chief of staff Mark Meadows, may see some relief because their actions involving Trump could be protected by presidential immunity now.
Anthony Michael Kreis, a Georgia State University law professor, said in a post on X that it is unlikely that Clark would be able to face charges in the same case as Trump because evidence against Clark that involves Trump is now protected by immunity and cannot be included in Trump’s case.
Kreis said the court’s decision complicates trying Meadows but does not rule it out.
“As a consequence, it’s rather unlikely that Jeff Clark will ever be tried alongside Donald Trump at the same time,” Kreis wrote. “The Meadows issue will be considerably more complex.”

The cases in Washington and in Georgia appear poised to stretch for several months or longer, but if Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, were to win the election, he could attempt to use his pardon power to toss his federal case out.
While the Georgia case is stalled indefinitely and may be drastically diminished once immunity questions are sorted out, Trump would be unable to pardon himself there.

Nick Ammirati leaving Kentucky for Georgia; Nolan McCarthy enters transfer portal
![Nick Ammirati leaving Kentucky for Georgia; Nolan McCarthy enters transfer portal](https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/Njw5hCHWjfRkaEmVyvOlC_oTntw=/838x550:2048x1184/fit-in/1200x630/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25485618/448084995_2165595350488135_7339744975651858380_n.jpg)
Just a couple of weeks after the Kentucky Wildcats’ miraculous baseball season ended in their first-ever College World Series berth, assistant coach Nick Ammirati is leaving to join the Georgia Bulldogs, the school announced Tuesday.
Ammirati came to Lexington in 2021 after leaving Southern Mississippi, and his contract expired last night at midnight. Instead of a renegotiation, he leaves for Georgia to join former Wildcat coach Will Coggin, who was an assistant under Nick Mingione from 2020-2023.
Ammirati’s departure will sting a tad bit for Kentucky, as he was the lead recruiter for tons of players, both incoming freshmen and guys coming in through the transfer portal. The program is in a much better spot now than when Ammirati first got here, so finding a replacement shouldn’t be as challenging as one would initially think.
Mingione moved Ammirati to the dugout more than two years ago, when Ammirati originally coached third base, to be with the players in the dugout, leaving Coach Mingione to coach third base. Mingione made the switch and he credits that move being a pivotal point in turning the program around.
We could be seeing our first repercussion of this loss, as standout outfielder Nolan McCarthy has entered the transfer portal, according to Derek Terry.
It’s my understanding that McCarthy had a close relationship with Nick Ammirati, who left Kentucky for Georgia yesterday. Safe to say the Bulldogs are a team to watch in that recruitment.

This past season McCarthy was Kentucky’s full-time starting centerfielder while batting .288 with eight home runs and 41 RBI. He was set to be a redshirt senior for the 2025 season.
McCarthy will forever live in Kentucky history after his memorable play vs. Oregon State that sent the Bat Cats to the College World Series. In Game 2 of the Lexington Super Regional against the Beavers, McCarthy scored from second base on a dropped third strike to give the Cats a 3-2 lead, which would prove to be the final score.
Exceptional baserunning by Nolan McCarthy who scores all the way from 2nd on this wild pitch to give Kentucky a 3-2 lead! How are you not covering the plate?! Pitcher was walking the entire time. Unbelievable. pic.twitter.com/dpudHSAuTY

Georgia Democrats weary after Monday's landmark Supreme Court ruling, presidents are now protected from prosecution for official acts

July 2, 2024
On this week’s live Political Breakfast, host Lisa Rayam, Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and Republican strategist Brian Robinson process a landmark Supreme Court ruling that grants former presidents broad immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts.
How will this trickle down to affect Donald Trump’s current indictment and the election interference case here in Georgia?
It’s a legal victory for Trump, who touted the 6-3 ruling as a “big win for our Constitution and for democracy.”
Democrats condemned it and president Joe Biden warned that the ruling meant there were “virtually no limits on what the president can do” if Trump wins the 2024 presidential election.
