Trump Campaigns in Phoenix Post-Conviction

Donald Trump is set to campaign in Phoenix today, marking his first appearance in a battleground state since his conviction in a hush money scandal. He will speak at a town hall organized by Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization, and take questions from voters. Arizona, a critical state for the upcoming presidential election, has seen significant influence from Turning Point, although its candidates struggled in the 2022 midterms. Trump's visit includes private fundraisers and a rally in Nevada, another key state he narrowly lost in 2020.

"Trump's First Criminal Trial: The Hush Money Scandal and Historic Jury Selection"

Former President Donald Trump is set to stand trial in New York on state charges related to a hush money scandal involving porn star Stormy Daniels, marking the first criminal trial of a former president in U.S. history. The charges allege that Trump orchestrated a scheme to conceal damaging information from the voting public and undermine the integrity of the 2016 presidential election. The case involves allegations of hefty payments to suppress stories of extramarital sexual encounters, and while Trump denies the allegations, the trial is expected to delve into salacious details and could have significant implications for the public's perception of elected officials.

Trump Grand Jury Investigation Continues with Testimony and Potential Charges

Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker, a longtime ally of former President Trump, appeared before a Manhattan grand jury for a second time as part of a probe into Trump's role in a hush money scandal. Pecker would buy the rights to certain stories that could prove embarrassing to Trump, assisting with a process known as "catch and kill" by buying and burying certain stories. Pecker was previously granted immunity in the probe of Trump fixer Michael Cohen, who pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and tax fraud in connection with a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
