Trump's High-Stakes Legal Battles Reach Critical Juncture
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump is expected in court for a crucial hearing in his New York hush-money criminal case, with a trial likely to begin next month. The case involves alleged efforts to suppress damaging stories during his 2016 campaign, and Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records. The judge will rule on key pretrial issues, including a motion to dismiss the case, and Trump's lawyers argue the charges are politically motivated. If the trial proceeds, it would be the first of Trump's four criminal indictments to go to trial.
