OLLI Members Only.
This event takes place in-person in Oakland.
As a follow-up to OLLI courses offered in spring 2024, this lecture will take a mid-summer look at the four criminal cases brought against former President Trump. We will review the status of the cases, ongoing developments, and the possible future course of these cases as the 2024 presidential campaign heats up. One topic of our discussion likely will be how the U.S. Supreme Court chooses to resolve the presidential immunity defense raised by former President Trump (the Supreme Court should have announced their decision on this issue by the time of our discussion).
