Washington — President Biden will deliver remarks Monday night on the Supreme Court’s landmark decision that former President Donald Trump is immune from prosecution for official acts he took while in office.
Mr. Biden is expected to give remarks at 7:45 p.m. ET at the White House.
The Supreme Court’s decision fell along ideological lines, with the six Republican-appointed justices concluding that former presidents have sweeping legal protections from charges for alleged acts that fell within their official duties. But the Supreme Court rejected Trump’s argument that he has absolute immunity unless impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate.
The decision all but ends the likelihood that Trump could be tried before the November election on charges he plotted to overturn his loss against Mr. Biden in 2020.
The Supreme Court instructed the district court judge in Washington overseeing the election case to examine whether Trump’s alleged conduct detailed in the indictment were official or unofficial acts.
Mr. Biden’s campaign said Monday that the immunity ruling “doesn’t change the facts” about the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.
“Donald Trump snapped after he lost the 2020 election and encouraged a mob to overthrow the results of a free and fair election,” the campaign said in a statement, accusing Trump of being “more unhinged” since then.

Boil water advisory issued for all of D.C., Arlington County due to algae blooms

A boil water advisory was issued Wednesday night for the entire District of Columbia and neighboring Arlington County due to a spike in algae blooms in the Potomac River, officials said.
The District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority said the advisory, which it described as “precautionary,” also included the Pentagon, Arlington National Cemetery and Reagan National Airport.
“We have no information that the water was contaminated by this incident, but we issue this advisory as a precaution while we test the water,” the agency said.
The Washington Aqueduct is sourced by the Potomac River and serves as the public water supply for about one million people in the D.C. area, Arlington County and other portions of Northern Virginia.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said in a news release that the advisory stemmed from “elevated turbidity levels in the water supply caused by increases in algae blooms in the Potomac River.”
Turbidity is a measure of the clarity and cloudiness of water.
“Customers may notice their water looks cloudy or hazy,” Arlington County said in a news release.
The Washington Aqueduct has two water treatment plants. The Army Corps of Engineers responded to the elevated turbidity by temporarily transferring all water treatment operations from the Dalecarlia plant to the McMillan plant, DC Water said.
The Environmental Protection Agency also authorized adding additional copper sulfate and sodium permanganate to the aqueduct’s reservoirs to combat the algae, the Army Corps of Engineers said.
Residents were advised to bring drinking water to a rolling boil for one minute before letting it cool. Water should then be stored in a covered container.
The advisory will remain in effect until further testing deems the water safe to drink.
