The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that Former President and Contender Donald Trump is entitled to substantial immunity from prosecution on charges of trying to overturn the last election.

The final rally of the African National Congress (ANC) party in Johannesburg, South Africa drew tens of thousands of supporters dressed in the party’s signature yellow, green, and black colors. This event took place before the upcoming general elections, where 28 million registered voters will cast their ballot. These elections could potentially mark the first time in 30 years that the ANC fails to secure a majority in the national assembly, with polls indicating that they may win less than 50 percent of the vote. If this scenario plays out, President Cyril Ramaphosa would need to form a coalition government to retain his position as the country’s leader.
