A state grand jury in Arizona on Wednesday indicted so-called "fake electors" who backed then-President Donald Trump in 2020.

Former New York Rep. George Santos announced Tuesday that he was ending his independent campaign for a seat in Congress.

Judge Juan Merchan heard arguments on whether Trump violated a gag order with his social media posts about two expected witnesses in the hush money trial.

Opening statements began in Donald Trump's hush money trial. Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker took the stand as the first witness for the prosecution.

Opening statements are set to begin next week in Donald Trump’s historic criminal trial after the final members of the jury were seated Friday, following a dramatic day in which two prospective jurors broke down in tears, an appeals court judge rejected Trump's request for a stay, and a man set himself on fire in front of the courthouse.

Jury selection got off to a rocky start after two jurors seated this week were excused. But by the end of Thursday, 12 jurors and an alternate were sworn in.

Former President Donald Trump ripped the jury selection process for his historic New York criminal trial Wednesday, the day after the first seven jurors were selected out of a pool of nearly 100 people.

The first seven jurors were selected for Donald Trump’s hush money trial Tuesday amid a battle over prospective jurors’ old Facebook posts and calls to “lock him up” and the judge’s warning that the former president should not try to intimidate the panelists who will be deciding his fate.

Trump's New York criminal trial kicked off Monday with 'Access Hollywood' discussion and jury selection. At one point, Trump closed his eyes and may have been sleeping.
