💨 Abstract
Attorneys for former President Donald Trump argued in federal court that he should have presidential immunity from civil claims related to the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol attack. Trump's legal team claims his actions were within his official capacity as president, while the Democratic lawmakers suing him argue he was acting as a private individual seeking office. The judge did not immediately rule on the matter.
