Trump took to Truth Social to mock Barr, to "greatly appreciate his wholehearted Endorsement, I am removing the word ‘Lethargic’ from my statement." Trump had redundantly labeled Barr "Weak, Slow Moving, Lethargic, Gutless, and Lazy" for not prosecuting "voter fraud in 2020.

Thanks for the endorsement! You're no longer 'lethargic.' Former Attorney General Bill Barr (not the truest of Trump supporters) tells Fox News he would vote for the Republican ticket.......
The political ramifications: slower than predicted growth for the quarter but higher than expected inflation.
Today comes word the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, personal consumption expenditures, rose 2.7% in March, year-over-year. It was supposed to be lower, meaning inflation is nagging still and possibly putting off a Fed rate decrease until after the election.
But the day also brought economic clouds with the government announcing first quarter GDP rose just 1.6 percent, year-over-year, and suggesting a slowdown since Q4 2023 GDP was up a robust 3.4%.
It's an area that has lost much of its manufacturing base over the past couple of decades and was specifically targeted for the investment by New York leaders, including Chuck Schumer. Micron is getting $6.1 billion from the CHIPS Act.
President Biden basked in the glow of announcing that Micron is using federal seed money to build a multi-billion-dollar chip making plant, north of Syracuse.
Hicks is expected to be called to testify, as Pecker's disclosure takes on a whiff of White House scandal. She and Sanders, Pecker said, urged him to extend the contract that bought McDougal's silence. Still, Pecker let it lapse because Trump didn't seem to care mid-term.
But Pecker testified that during the Trump presidency, then-White House Communications Director Hope Hicks and Press Secretary Sarah Sanders had discussions with Pecker about McDougal's wanting to get out of what amounted to a non-disclosure agreement.
Pecker talked about his company paying Karen McDougal $150,000 to tell her story about an affair with Trump so it could be buried.
And the 'fixer' did just that. He used $130,000 of his own money to keep Daniels silent. And the case hinges on whether the jury thinks that was election interference.
David Pecker testified he did not have the $120,000 Stormy Daniels was demanding as the price for her story about an alleged affair with Trump in 2006. So, he suggested Michael Cohen take care of it protect Trump.
In Lower Manhattan, continues the Trump hush-money trial, that cannot be affected by any Supreme Court ruling, since it occurred during the Trump candidacy.
Overall, there is no haste in this ruling, judging by what the jurists were saying and asking. Maybe they will decide firmly by the end of June. Thursday was the last day for oral arguments this SCOTUS term.
Should Trump win the White House, he would get his attorney general to kibosh the Special Counsel investigation and/or possibly pardon himself.
If that happens, it could wait for an actual district trial, delayed until way after the election; or the DC Appeals court might have to practically try the case themselves.
The court did not appear ready to rule that specifically, and may very well send the case back to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals to rehear arguments to pinpoint official acts versus private acts of a president.
Dreeben offered one of the few specific-to-this-case moments when he added to a list of hypotheticals that should not be immune from prosecution, "conspiring to use fraud to overturn the results of an election and perpetuate himself in power."
“The president has no functions with respect to the certification of the winner of the presidential election,” the lawyer representing Special Counsel Jack Smith argued. Michael Dreeben added "the Framers knew too well the dangers of a king who could do no wrong."
Sotomayor noted the Constitution does not grant the chief executive immunity because the framers felt the president "was not supposed to be above the law."
