Trump on Trial

Harris' campaign called the former president's remarks to Fox News evidence that he thought he was above the law.

The Supreme Court’s decision last month barred the government from using certain “official acts” Trump had taken as president in its prosecution.

The former president is currently scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 18 after being found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records.

The former president is seeking monetary damages from the government, which he may soon be heading, over what his legal filing called a "malicious political prosecution."

Jack Smith asked for an Aug. 30 deadline to submit a joint status report in the case.

Further delays would narrow the window to potentially start a trial before Election Day.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon handed down her decision in a big win for the former president. Special counsel Jack Smith's office indicated it would appeal the ruling.

A court ruling that dismissed Trump's Mar-a-Lago documents indictment echoed language in a concurring opinion Thomas wrote in the former president's election interference case.

Trump’s lawyers want the judge to consider Justice Clarence Thomas’ opinion that the appointment of Smith as special counsel could violate the Constitution.

The former president was friends with deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and allegedly flew on his plane, but there have been no new revelations about their relationship.

The court's ruling has ramifications for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' prosecution of Trump and his allies over election interference allegations.
