"One case involved Minnesota's request to reinstate its ban on issuing gun-carry permits to individuals aged 18 to 20, which a lower court had struck down. The other challenged a U of Michigan policy prohibiting firearms on campus...justices opted not to hear the appeals; no dissents were recorded."

Even if he’s found guilty of a criminal immigration action, the USCIS and ICE can deport him as trump can’t grant him legal status or prevent his deportation. Trump also can’t just ‘give’ him citizenship. But I’m sure FElon will buy his way out of all of it.
