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.

reut.rs/4ccZurF
Quick Glance: Meloni and Allies Maintain Control of Abruzzo Region
- Giorgia Meloni's party won around 24% of the vote in Abruzzo. Election results revealed that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and her right-wing allies have retained control of the central region of Abruzzo, bouncing back from a shock defeat in Sardinia two weeks ago.
- The outcome will strengthen Meloni ahead of the upcoming European elections in June, solidifying the position of her party, Brothers of Italy, as the predominant force in Italian politics. With almost all the ballots from yesterday's regional election counted, the right-wing incumbent governor Marco Marsilio secured over 53% of the vote, while the candidate supported by all major opposition parties received approximately 46.5%.
- The result dealt a blow to the center-left bloc, which set aside its internal rivalries to campaign together, hoping to replicate its recent success in Sardinia where Meloni's candidate was ousted from power. Meloni's party won around 24% of the vote in the mountainous Abruzzo, well ahead of the second largest group, the center-left Democratic Party (PD), which received 20.4%.
- It was a mixed night for the prime minister's allies. While the center-right Forza Italia party outperformed expectations, winning over 13% of the vote, the League, led by Matteo Salvini, only garnered 7.6%, highlighting its recent decline.
