Former President Trump has urged the Supreme Court to rule that he has absolute immunity from prosecution in the special counsel’s 2020 election subversion case.

The high court is scheduled to hear oral arguments on April 25. New York Times senior political correspondent Maggie Haberman, former Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger and former federal prosecutor Jennifer Rodgers discuss the case with Anderson. Plus, controversy continues to build after new video of Kate, the Princess of Wales, surfaces showing her and Prince William at a farmer's market.
