18 people indicted for 2020 election interference in Arizona. Others are expected to be announced in due course. Among the first tranche are; Rudi Giuliani, Boris Ephstyn and Mark Meadows.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/24/politics/arizona-criminal-charges-2020-election-subversion/index.html
Giuliani is already deep in the mire in Georgia, for his defamation of two election workers and is thought to be an unindicted coconspirator in other jurisdictions. Meadows has also been indicted in Georgia, but is believed to be cooperating with Special Council In Jack Smith. Ephstyn is also thought to be an indicted coconspirator in other jurisdictions.

AKA 'The Swamp'....

'Mr. Pecker paid the $150,000 for her story, planning to keep it hidden to protect the Trump campaign. But seeking reimbursement proved complicated, Mr Pecker testified'
'"The boss is going to be very angry at you," Cohen said, according to Mr Pecker. Ultimately, Mr Pecker was never compensated for the payment to Ms McDougal.'

Payment in kind or just one of the very many scammed by Trump?

On the Trump 'immunity' supreme court case, they are expected to delay it to the last, making the decision on or near July 3rd.
Obviously they will unlikely not dare grant full immunity so it will, delay things enough for a 'President Trump' to pardon himself.

Edit - Seems Trump Supreme court appointee Justice Gorsuch “We’re writing a rule for the ages” thus signifying 'were gonna wait ages'.

Listening to some of the back and to with Trump's lawyer, Justices Kagan and Sotomayor appear to be thinking along the same lines as the judges at the Court of Appeal.
The grounds of appeal the SC stated they would consider were very narrow. But given this courts track record of riding roughshod over pretty much everything, from established case law to their own ethics, I strongly suspect the likes of Gorsich, Kavanagh and Thomas will find a way of bailing Trump out.

Seems a bit strange reading the reports on the absurdity of the immune judges when the only real possible outcome is intentional delay.

But that was reported as a hunting accident.

Well, yeah, and it probably was, but if you can get away with that, putting down a dog and a goat (even if in what sounds like pretty grim circumstances) seems a bit insignificant.

Just watching Horizon on BBC2, about the Webb Space Telescope. How can a Country, with people who can achieve this, be led by someone like Trump? It is beyond belief.
