If former President Donald Trump is prohibited from doing business in the state of New York, he will try to play it off as if he's leaving the state due to bad business practices, predicted former Trump Organization executive Barbara Res.

The comments follow a day of chaotic testimony by the former president in the civil fraud trial in New York, where state Attorney General Letitia James is seeking the dissolution of his companies, as well as $250 million in fines.

Donald Trump's attorney Alina Habba attacked Judge Arthur Engoron Monday for not allowing the jury to rule on the $250 million-plus lawsuit, even though the former president's legal team never requested one, according to NBC News's senior legal correspondent.

Habba, who Raw Story reported dropped the ball on making that jury request, spoke to Laura Jarrett outside the New York courthouse shortly after a tumultuous morning saw Trump testify in the civil trial.

Donald Trump is plotting a vengeance campaign if he's re-elected to another term as president, and a Washington Post reporter explained how he's surrounding himself with authoritarian accomplices.

The former president has publicly threatened to prosecute President Joe Biden and has privately told others that he wants the Justice Department to target his political enemies, and journalist Isaac Arnsdorf told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" how Trump intends to start a potential second term.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough warned that a second Donald Trump presidency would be far worse than the first.

Polls have shown the twice-impeached ex-president leading President Joe Biden in several key states, and the "Morning Joe" host pointed to the reception Chris Christie received from Trump-loving Republicans at the party's Florida Freedom Summit as a disturbing indication.

Donald Trump's niece, Dr. Mary Trump, who has a Ph.D. as a psychologist, explained that Americans are seeing Joe Biden as old because the media is more obsessed with it than they are with legitimate questions about the former president's cognition.

Speaking to MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan on Sunday, Dr. Trump said that one of the main reasons that people don't see her uncle as having cognition problems is because all the news, including mainstream non-right-wing news, ignores it.

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner thinks Ivanka Trump has dirt on her father and brothers.

Speaking to Ayman Mohyeldin about the trial, Kirschner and former Republican Tim Miller, the panel pointed to a recent rant on Truth Social, in which the former president went off on Attorney General Letitia James and Judge Arthur Engoron.

Ivanka Trump tried to get out of testifying against her father in court this week by saying that she couldn't possibly travel to New York in the "middle of the school week" for her children. It didn't work, and Dr. Mary Trump thinks it is because the courts aren't uninformed and can see that Ivanka and Jared's lives generally ignore the confines of the school week.

Speaking to MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan on Sunday, Donald Trump's niece Mary, chatted about her uncle's upcoming testimony, which will require him not to lie under oath.

Former White House counsel John Dean, who served under Richard Nixon's presidency, had some advice for Donald Trump ahead of his first day on the stand in the New York court on Monday.

Speaking to CNN's Jim Acosta on Sunday, Dean, explained that the amount of trouble that Trump can make for himself is "infinite."

Donald Trump Jr. and his brother Eric have already testified in the New York fraud trial, and their father, Donald Sr., is scheduled for Monday. Former federal prosecutor Shan Wu doesn't anticipate there's much the former president can do to save himself that his sons haven't already said.

"If I were [Donald Trump's] lawyer, I would not want him to be exposed for it," explained Wu, speaking to Symone Sanders-Townsend. "But he has a tendency to go off. I think it'll start off kind of concise and focused, but I'm sure he'll start to meander and speechify in terms of substance. There isn't that much that he can say that would convince the judge any different from what his two sons of already testified to. He's unlikely to do a better job than they have done, which isn't that great. So, I do look for him to meander off and start to make a lot of statements."

Rolling Stone highlighted a 2022 video of new Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) from the "War on Technology” conference, where he confessed that he and his sons monitor each other's usage of adult videos online.

Johnson was at Benton, Louisiana’s Cypress Baptist Church, according to a video unearthed by social media user Receipt Maven this week. According to Rolling Stone, Johnson was talking about the "accountability software" he installed called Covenant Eyes on devices to ensure he didn't stray into unsavory websites.

Former impeachment lawyer Norm Eisen explained that Donald Trump should be careful about his testimony in court on Monday.

Trump is set to follow his two sons on the stand in the New York fraud trial that could mean the end of the Trump Organization. Trump's eldest daughter, Ivanka, is scheduled to testify after him.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist slammed Donald Trump as "repulsive" for comparing Jan. 6 rioters to Israelis kidnapped by Hamas terrorists.

The former president opened his rally Thursday night in Houston with a recording of "The Star-Spangled Banner" performed by a male prison choir he referred to as “hostages, not prisoners," and the "Morning Joe" co-hosts were disgusted by the former president's defense of his supporters who were convicted of attacking law enforcement officers in an effort to overthrow the government.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough ripped Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) as "sick" for smearing a Biden administration official as ant-Semitic despite his family's history with the Holocaust.

The Missouri Republican clashed with Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas at a hearing over social media comments about the Hamas-Israel war made by a DHS employee, and the "Morning Joe" host bashed Hawley for taking a "victory lap" after the secretary called him out.
