A judge is set to hear arguments in a Phoenix courtroom regarding the potential transfer of former Donald Trump presidential chief of staff Mark Meadows' charges in Arizona's fake elector case to federal court. Meadows has requested the case be moved to U.S. District Court, citing his actions as a federal official working under Trump's administration and claiming immunity under the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution.
The Arizona Attorney General's office, which filed the case, has opposed Meadows' request, arguing that he missed the deadline for seeking a transfer to federal court and that his alleged electioneering efforts were not part of his official duties at the White House.
