"Hope Hicks Testifies in Trump Hush Money Trial: Latest Updates"

Former White House communications director Hope Hicks is expected to testify in the Manhattan criminal trial of former President Donald Trump regarding the alleged hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.

Trump faces charges of falsifying business records to conceal the reimbursement of the hush money, and his former attorney Michael Cohen is expected to be a key witness. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and called the prosecution a "witch hunt." Daniels is also expected to testify, and attempts to block witnesses from appearing have been unsuccessful.
