Rep. Adam Schiff said on Sunday, “Of course,” that he is concerned about former President Trump’s personal threats against him, especially in light of the Supreme Court’s Monday ruling that core presidential powers are immune from criminal prosecution. “Of course,” Schiff told NBC News’s Kristen Welker, when asked on “Meet the Press” about Trump’s accusations of fraud and treason against him.

And even outside of that, you will have such a strong presumption of immunity as to be irrebuttable,” Schiff said.
