Trump gag order hearing kicks off hush money trial: Live updates
Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order
  • Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

Quick Glance: Rams legend Roman Gabriel dies at age 83
  • Roman Gabriel, one of pro football's best quarterbacks during the 1960s, passed away at the age of 83, as announced by his son.

  • Despite not being in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Gabriel's career surpasses many quarterbacks in Canton, Ohio. He still holds the Rams' career record with 154 touchdown passes.
