Hello, I'm Neil.
And I'm Beth.
And in this program, we look at one big news story and the vocabulary in the headlines that will help you understand it.
And you can find the headlines and the vocabulary from this episode, as well as a worksheet on our website, bbclearningenglish.com.
so, Neil, lets hear more about the story.
Ok, so the US Supreme Court has said that Donald Trump cannot be punished for official actions he committed as president.
Official actions mean work he did as part of his job when he was president.
And Trump has been charged in four criminal cases, including attempting to change the results of the 2020 us presidential election.
But this new ruling means that some of the things he was charged with are now likely to be seen as official action.
So he may not be prosecuted for them.
That means he may not face the legal consequences, for example, jail.
Now, we have a headline here that describes what has happened.
It's from BBC News.
Trump asks for conviction to be overturned after immunity ruling.
So that headline, again from BBC News, Trump asks for conviction to be overturned after immunity ruling.
