Trump’s Legal Woes

In Washington, D.C., the Trump legal team skipped a Thursday deadline to file a petition with the Supreme Court to challenge an appeals court decision that rejected his immunity arguments. The lawsuit holding Trump accountable for the events of January 6th is expected to move forward.  

A New York judge ruled Friday that Trump and his companies did commit financial fraud and ordered the former President to pay a $355 million fine, plus $98.6 million in “pre-judgment interest.” The judge also barred Trump from serving as an officer or director of any New York corporation for three years. 

Finally, the hearing in Atlanta, Georgia to determine whether or not Fani Willis will remain on the Trump election fraud case concluded. Willis did not testify on the second day, and the judge has yet to render a decision.
