"Trump's Legal Maneuvers Fail as Historic Trial Looms"

Attorneys for Donald Trump were scolded by a judge for delay tactics in the criminal case related to a hush money scheme, with the judge rejecting accusations of misconduct against the Manhattan District Attorney's office. The judge set a new trial date for 15 April and expressed frustration with the former president's legal team for failing to cite prior cases to support their claims. The case stems from alleged payments to bury embarrassing stories of Trump's affairs, with prosecutors expected to rely on Michael Cohen's testimony.
