Alvin Bragg Reveals Trial Plan Against Donald Trump
Quick Glance: Trump Faces Landmark Trial Over Hush Money Case
  • Donald Trump will go down in history as the first former president to stand trial in Manhattan on criminal charges. The historic case revolves around a potential sex scandal cover-up just days before the 2016 elections.

  • The prosecution alleges that Trump falsified business records to hide hush money payments aimed at influencing the election outcome. Trump maintains his innocence and refutes any involvement with Stormy Daniels.

  • The trial will feature key witnesses from Trump's inner circle testifying against him, including Michael Cohen and David Pecker. It will delve into the Oval Office, where Trump allegedly approved the cover-up.

  • Prosecutors must prove that Trump falsified business records with intent to commit or conceal another crime. Trump's defense is likely to focus on the legality of the hush money payments and attempt to distance him from the accounting handled by his employees.

Quick Glance: Trump Agrees to New Restrictions on $175 Million Bond in New York Civil Fraud Case
  • The bond is meant to secure Trump's compliance with a $454.2 million judgment won by state Attorney General Letitia James if he does not succeed in an appeal.

  • James had challenged the bond this month, saying Trump still had access to the Charles Schwab account pledged to the insurer as collateral.

  • Justice Arthur Engoron imposed the penalty after finding that Trump fraudulently inflated his net worth and real estate assets to deceive banks and insurers into providing better terms.

  • Trump defended the bond in court, emphasizing that he has plenty of money to put up for it.

Quick Glance: Weisselberg sentenced to 5 months jail in Trump civil fraud case
  • Retired Trump executive Allen Weisselberg was sentenced to five months in jail for admitting to lying under oath in a civil fraud lawsuit against the former president by New York’s attorney general.

  • Weisselberg pleaded guilty to perjury related to the valuation of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, despite his deep loyalty to Trump and previous jail time for tax evasion.

  • Important aspects include Weisselberg's testimonies in unfavorable trials for Trump and his decision not to testify in Trump's upcoming hush money criminal trial.

  • Weisselberg's willingness to admit wrongdoing, age, and his role in Trump's organization were considered in his sentence, mirroring a previous case where he served a reduced jail term. He is likely to be involved in Trump's hush money trial, even if not as a witness.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
  • A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.

  • The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

  • Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.

  • The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

Quick Glance: Path to Victory: Trump's NY Hush Money Trial
  • The first criminal trial of any former president began with extortion, Trump should aim for an acquittal.

  • Charges do not concern misconduct in settling hush money with Daniels, but entering payments to conceal another crime.

  • The burden of proof for criminal intent is high, requiring proof for two layers of specific intent to convict Trump.

  • A legal maneuver could allow Trump to dismiss his defense team and recruit a new team to potentially secure his case.

  • Weinstein, convicted in Los Angeles for another rape, will face retrial in New York, despite remaining in prison.

  • The court criticized the admission of uncharged sexual acts as evidence, deeming it an abuse of judicial discretion.

Quick Glance: Court Overturns West Virginia Ban on Transgender in Sports
  • A federal appeals court has overturned a ban on transgender individuals participating in sports in West Virginia, citing a violation of Title IX.

  • The court ruled that the law cannot lawfully be applied to a 13-year-old girl who has identified as female since the third grade.

  • The decision favored the American Civil Liberties Union, its West Virginia chapter, and the LGBTQ advocacy group Lambda Legal, who filed a lawsuit in 2021.

  • West Virginia is just one of 24 states with legislation preventing transgender women and girls from competing in specific women's or girls' sports events.

Quick Glance: Moscow Court Upholds Extension of Detention for Reporter Evan Gershkovich
  • Following the rejection of Evan Gershkovich's appeal, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, he will remain in custody on espionage charges until at least late June.

  • Detained in late March 2023 during a reporting trip, the 32-year-old US citizen has spent over a year in prison, with his detention being regularly prolonged and his appeals being turned down.

  • Experts suggest that Moscow might be leveraging jailed Americans as leverage in the escalating tensions between the US and Russia due to the Kremlin's military operation in Ukraine.

  • Gershkovich's arrest marks the first time since September 1986 that an American reporter has been detained in Russia on espionage charges, when Nicholas Daniloff, a Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, was apprehended by the KGB.

Quick Glance: Trump's Disregard for Democratic Principles
  • Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity for criminal acts as president is an assault on common sense and a perversion of the fundamental principle of American democracy.

  • The Supreme Court's decision to take the case may delay the former president's trial and deprive the public of the right to know if he attempted to undermine the sacred process of presidential succession.

  • The Supreme Court's direct intervention in the 2024 presidential election deprives voters of critical information and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump is re-elected and convicted.

  • The notion that the president is above the law and can pardon himself is a radical contempt for republican government, revealing Trump's vision of unchecked royal power.

  • Despite the 2015 definitive ruling by Italy's Cassation Court clearing Knox of guilt, doubts about her role linger, especially within Italy.

  • In her upcoming trial, Knox is expected to testify, although her lawyer mentioned she will not be present in court on the opening day.

TikTok might actually get banned for real this time. Here's how.

  • ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, would prefer to shut down its loss-making app rather than sell it if all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the US are exhausted, said four sources.

  • TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance’s total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the US in a worst-case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.

  • ByteDance would not agree to sell one of its most valuable assets – its “secret source” – to rivals, said the four sources, referring to the TikTok algorithm.

  • After facing challenges regarding bans, the short-form video app has encountered partial and attempted prohibitions in the US and other nations.
