Friday's update: The Supreme Court is hearing the Trump immunity case.


The Supreme Court heard arguments on Trump's claim of immunity from prosecution in a criminal case related to the 2020 election. The conservative majority seemed inclined to limit the case, potentially delaying any trial until after the November election. The final ruling is expected in early summer. In other news, Palestinian authorities discovered more bodies in a mass grave in Gaza, while President Biden and other leaders called for the release of hostages seized in attacks on Israel. Additionally, Harvey Weinstein's 2020 conviction was overturned by New York's highest court. In South Africa, the 30th anniversary of the end of apartheid is approaching, with upcoming elections possibly signaling a shift in power. The legacy of apartheid continues to shape life in the country, with disparities in wealth and a growing disillusionment with the ruling party.
