New York (AFP) - The lawyer who negotiated a hush money payment from Donald Trump to a porn star was grilled on Thursday by the former US president's defense attorney, who suggested his activities bordered on "extortion." Trump, 77, is accused of falsifying business records to reimburse his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a $130,000 payment to X-rated movie actress Stormy Daniels just days ahead of the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton. The trial resumed on Thursday after a day off on Wednesday, with prosecutors urging Judge Juan Merchan to fine the Republican presidential candidate for violati...

Washington (AFP) - Donald Trump was facing a backlash Thursday after declining to pledge he will accept the results of the 2024 presidential election if he loses, as he repeated his false claims that he was cheated in the 2020 vote. "If everything's honest, I'd gladly accept the results," the Republican former president told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday. "If it's not, you have to fight for the right of the country." Trump -- who is running for a return to the White House, in what will almost certainly be a re-run of his 2020 face-off with Joe Biden -- made similar remarks ahead ...

New York (AFP) - The New York judge presiding over Donald Trump's hush money trial fined the former president on Tuesday for defying a gag order and warned that further violations could see him thrown in jail. Trump, 77, is accused of falsifying business records to reimburse his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels just days ahead of the 2016 election, in which Trump ran against Hillary Clinton. Keith Davidson, Daniels' former lawyer, spent several hours on the witness stand on Tuesday testifying about the negotiations he held with Cohen to secure the ...

Washington (AFP) - Donald Trump set out a stark vision for an authoritarian second term in an interview with Time magazine published Tuesday, ranging from possible mass deportations of migrants by the US military and detention camps to pregnancy monitoring to enforce abortion bans. The Republican former president, who will face Democrat incumbent Joe Biden in November's election, also warned of a crackdown on the "enemy from within" if he secures a White House comeback and failed to rule out political violence if he does not. Trump, 77, was in court in New York Tuesday for his porn star hush m...

New York (AFP) - Donald Trump's historic criminal trial wrapped up for the week on Friday following four days of testimony by a colorful ex-tabloid publisher who said he suppressed potentially damaging stories about the former president. Trump, 77, is accused of falsifying business records to reimburse his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for a $130,000 hush money payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels just days ahead of the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton. Daniels, 45, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was threatening at the time to go public with her story about an alleged 2006 sexual en...

Washington (AFP) - Joe Biden said Friday he is ready to face off against his White House challenger Donald Trump in a presidential debate, with the Republican, ensnarled in multiple criminal cases, proposing to hold the verbal duel at a New York courthouse without delay. Candidate debates have been important milestones in US presidential elections for decades, helping make or break voters' opinions of the contestants' personal style and demeanor as much as their policy chops. But Biden's team has for months been non-committal about his willingness to participate in the tradition, which is us...

New York (AFP) - A former tabloid publisher who squashed potentially embarrassing stories about Donald Trump was back on the witness stand on Friday being grilled by lawyers of the former US president. David Pecker, 72, has testified for four days in the trial of Trump, accused of falsifying business records to buy the silence of porn star Stormy Daniels about an alleged 2006 sexual encounter that could have derailed his 2016 White House campaign. Pecker, the first witness in the blockbuster trial, has outlined under questioning from prosecutors a scheme known as "catch and kill," which involv...

Washington (AFP) - The US Supreme Court appeared skeptical on Thursday of Donald Trump's claim that a former president is "absolutely immune" from criminal prosecution but looked set to issue a ruling that could further delay his election subversion trial. The historic case -- the last in the court's current term -- has far-reaching implications for executive power and the 77-year-old Trump's multiple legal entanglements as he seeks the White House again. "We're writing a rule for the ages," said Neil Gorsuch, one of three conservative justices appointed to the nation's highest court by the fo...

New York (AFP) - In the 1990s, Donald Trump famously gossiped to the tabloids about -- who else -- himself, a headline-chaser who loved none other than to see his name in lights, or at least in the supermarket checkout line. But those were Trump's good old days, an era of clubs and models, long before he launched a bid for the US presidency and found himself needing to squash the lewd, party boy stories he once boasted about. Cue David Pecker, the former publishing executive whose titles included the National Enquirer, and who on Tuesday in a Manhattan courtroom laid out the "catch and kill" s...
