Thank you @TIME magazine for the incredibly great honor of being named--(I still can't believe it!)--one of the Most Influential People of 2024. And the Gala last night? A TOTAL GAS!
This Little Blue Heron, a species we had never before seen in Central Park (last documented there in 2013), perched near the Oven this morning in the Ramble and later hunted there before flying off. 💙
@Italiano_Laura @BusinessInsider Mr. Trump will be pleased that his lawyer fought with the judge and disrespected the court.
Good morning! I'm here at the US Supreme Court with my intrepid colleague @BrentGriffiths to cover Trump's immunity arguments. @Italiano_Laura is in New York covering the hush money trial. It's the highest-stakes day yet for Trump's legal challenges. businessinsider.com/supreme-court-…
New: Today's exhibits from the Trump criminal trial are all posted on the @Law360 docket. law360.com/newyork-vs-tru…
Saw the photo and that it was NYPost and immediately thought that this bolognese must have quit its job as a public school teacher after realizing she could make $65,000 per month as an OnlyFans model
You’re making your Bolognese all wrong —here’s how to do it right, according to an expert chef trib.al/5at0dNH
Is he staring at the wall? The bottom third is wood-paneled, the rest is solid white. Also, mounted on the wall across from Trump is a flat-screen television. It shows Merchan, the lawyers, and Trump himself. From my review of Trump in Merchan's court: cbsnews.com/news/watching-…
The @ManhattanDA's theory of Trump's conspiracy to undermine the 2016 election isn't new. Why are folks saying it is? ℹ️ Trump's 34 counts of falsifying business records are upped to felonies if done to commit *another* crime. DA named 4 in May 2023, judge OKs 3 in February.👇
“See you all in a month or more,” says Michael Cohen, estimating when he’ll testify in Donald Trump’s ongoing criminal trial. While @ManhattanDA says Trump is intimidating witnesses with online posts, he says he is just responding to political attacks from Cohen & others.
Despite not being the gagged defendant, out of respect for Judge Merchan and the prosecutors, I will cease posting anything about Donald on my X (formerly Twitter) account or on the Mea Culpa Podcast until after my trial testimony. See you all in a month (or more). #TeamCohen
Trump disparaged E. Jean Carroll yet again in a Truth Social post at around 2 AM. As a reminder, he has ~$97.1M in escrow going to her if he fails to win his appeals of a jury and Judge Lew Kaplan’s respective findings that he sexually assaulted and repeatedly defamed her.
Merchan: I've asked you several times to show me the post that the defendant was responding to. You haven't done so once. BRUTAL.
Donald Trump just walked into court for the gag order hearing in his hush money trial. He was flanked by secret service agents, a few staffers, and his lawyers. Again, none of his family members are here in support.
NEW: The big takeaway of this morning’s testimony is twofold: Pecker was a very good, albeit transactional, friend of Trump for decades, and the agreement they struck in 2015 went way beyond the “catch and kill” aspect of the scheme that has been known for years.
During a sidebar about the relevance of Steve Bannon’s requests of Pecker, Steinglass admitted that New York Election Law 17-152, which prohibits conspiracies to promote a candidate’s election through unlawful means, is their “primary” predicate.
Hi from 100 Centre St. Trump’s contempt hearing is at 9:30. Prosecutors say he’s broken a gag order in jabs at Cohen, Stormy, and jurors. His attys say it’s self-defense. Stay tuned to see if more history will be made with the addition of “Von ShitzInPantz” to the public record.
Hey Von ShitzInPantz…your attacks of me stink of desperation. We are all hoping that you take the stand in your defense.
Kudos to the @NYDailyNews Editorial Board, which has been ringing this bell for months.
