Mark Meadows Donald Trump
Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Donald Trump.
  • Mark Meadows has requested Supreme Court to recognize immunity for president's subordinates.
  • He's criminally charged alongside Trump for a plot to erase Biden's electoral win in Georgia.
  • One of Trump's own Supreme Court appointees seemed to draw the opposite conclusion.

Before the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in former President Donald Trump's immunity case, Mark Meadows tried to get his foot in the door.

The high court had agreed to decide whether former presidents can enjoy legal immunity from criminal charges for actions taken during their presidency.
