Or for the tl;dr version:

Mazars (Congress): Absolute immunity is bullshit, get the fuck out of here with that nonsense, there might be something to separations of powers idk not enough there go back and figure it out.

Vance (NY Grand Jury): Absolute immunity is bullshit. Continue as you were and see if they can stall until after Novem-I mean have another argument on why a grand jury in a criminal investigation can't enforce subpoenas lol.

Like the takeaway from Vance is that he's gonna lose in the end it's just gonna take awhile. Mazars who knows. The law clearly says "shall furnish" but whatevs. Of some note to keep in mind is that Vance is dealing with subpoenas in relation to a state criminal proceeding. Mazars is Congress issuing legislative subpoenas.

Prior to the cases SCOTUS had found a president must comply with subpoenas to federal criminal proceedings. Today, with Vance, they extended that to "Yeah, they gotta comply with state criminal proceedings too." They shrugged here on legislative subpoenas and want more debate from the parties though still rejected the higher standards the Trump legal defense was asserting here.
