Former President Donald Trump can "probably take money" for pardoning January 6, 2021, Capitol rioters due to the Supreme Court's recent presidential immunity ruling, legal analyst Melissa Murray said on MSNBC's The Weekend on Sunday.
On July 1, the Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision that former presidents have immunity for official acts conducted while in office, but not for unofficial acts.
Meanwhile, over 1,488 people have been charged for their alleged actions on January 6.
"The moment we win, we will rapidly review the cases of every political prisoner unjustly victimized by the Harris regime and I will sign their pardons on day one," Trump said at a campaign rally in Mosinee, Wisconsin, on Saturday.
Melissa Murray, a New York University (NYU) law professor and MSNBC contributor, told the co-hosts of The Weekend on Sunday in an interview appearance that "the Supreme Court has actually made it possible for him to do this."
