Federal appeals court ruling: Trump doesn’t have presidential immunity in January 6 case

A federal appeals court ruled that former President Trump does not have immunity from prosecution for his alleged crimes he committed while he was president to reverse the 2020 election results. The court’s decision rejects the former president’s arguments that he shouldn’t have to go on trial for the federal election subversion charges. The court gave Trump and his team until February 12 to file an emergency stay request with the Supreme Court. Former Republican Presidential candidate Chris Christie explains to Anderson Cooper why he doesn't think there's "any grounds for appeal." Plus, a jury found the mother of the teenager who killed four students at a Michigan high school in 2021 guilty of all four counts of involuntary manslaughter. Tate Myre and Hana St. Juliana were two of the victims who were murdered. Their dads, Buck Myre and Steve St. Juliana, join AC360 to discuss the verdict and remember Tate and Hana.
