A Cook County judge is set to make a decision next week regarding former President Donald Trump's eligibility to appear on Illinois' ballot for the GOP primary, under the 14th Amendment, following allegations of his involvement in an insurrection on January 6, 2021. This comes after a legal battle where a group of voters challenged Trump's candidacy, leading to a court confrontation between their lawyers and Trump's legal team, as reported by @drewjayadams. The case, which holds significant implications for Trump's political future, could potentially escalate to the Illinois Supreme Court.
