Sen. Thom Tillis introduced a bill Friday that would allow presidents and vice presidents — current and former — to move their own civil or criminal cases from a state court to a federal court to stop political local prosecutions such as the one former President Donald Trump faced in New York, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.
Tillis’s bill is co-sponsored by Trump allies Sens. Lindsey Graham , Josh Hawley , Eric Schmitt , Ted Budd , and Mike Lee . Trump has recently faced several cases brought by Democrat state and local officials, including New York Attorney General Letitia James, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Judges presiding over two of those cases are Democrats or Democrat-appointed.“No president or vice president should be plagued by cheap political prosecutions as a private citizen,” Budd said in a statement obtained by Breitbart News.
