Donald Trump's former spiritual adviser asked his sexual abuse accuser to name her price to ensure her silence, according to a newly revealed transcript.

The transcript covers a Sept. 22, 2005, phone call between Robert Morris, the founder of Gateway Church, and Cindy Clemishire, a woman who came forward with accusations the pastor abused her in the 1980s, starting when she was 12, reported NBC News.

Former President Donald Trump's far-right supporters are turning on the Supreme Court justice he appointed after she backed a Biden administration policy over Republican-led states.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett was one of six justices to rule in Murthy v. Missouri, a case that determined, as Vox correspondent Ian Millhiser put it, that "judges do not get to micromanage how the Biden administration speaks to social media companies."

The Supreme Court has been issuing rulings this week — and many expected the Court to have decided whether former President Donald Trump is immune from prosecution by now. But Thursday night is the debate, and the Trump immunity ruling is nowhere to be seen.

The Court issued a number of high-profile rulings this week, including one on the Idaho abortion case and one about "gratuities" for politicians. The Court's session isn't over, but no more rulings will be issued Thursday, so a Trump immunity ruling could come Friday or next week. But that would be too late for the first CNN presidential debate.

Pastor Luis Cabrera and his conservative group threatened to shut down school board meetings if a superintendent of a school district in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas did not heed their demands to ban a wide array of books, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reported.

In the end, Superintendent Carol Perez agreed to the demands to remove 676 books, including a number of books that address the Holocaust and antisemitism.

Donald Trump previewed one of his likely attacks on President Joe Biden with a vicious smear against immigrants.

The former president has made his opposition to immigration the cornerstone of his political rise, and has highlighted several unrelated homicides allegedly carried out by undocumented migrants to blame Biden for the slayings — which he's expected to do in Thursday's presidential debate.

A shouting match erupted in the House Judiciary committee Thursday when a Democratic lawmaker dared Republicans to keep their promise to the American people and impeach President Joe Biden.

A furious Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) challenged conservatives to either move forward with impeachment or give up the "Anna Paulina lunacy" that would see Republicans try to put Attorney General Merrick Garland under arrest.

Former acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal unleashed on the Supreme Court for helping out Donald Trump by delaying his immunity case as long as possible.

"We will have opinions tomorrow, and we will have opinions next week, and in particular, we're waiting on, I think, two really important opinions," Katyal explained on MSNBC after Thursday's rulings were released.

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dressed down her conservative colleagues Thursday despite a decision that will allow for emergency abortions in Idaho for now.

In a ruling leaked the day before, the high court dismissed an appeal by Idaho officials and allowed a stay ordered by a lower court to remain in place. The Supreme Court's decision effectively left the question about emergency abortions in Idaho undecided.

Donald Trump is facing fresh calls for an investigation into his "unexplained wealth" in Scotland.

The Scottish Green Party has thus far been unsuccessful in their efforts to have the Trump Organization's golf courses in Aberdeen and Ayrshire investigated through an Unexplained Wealth Order that would give law enforcement the authority to probe and potentially confiscate the former president's assets, reported The Independent.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on the bankruptcy settlement between the United States and the opioid manufacturer Perdue Pharma, the creator of the OxyCotin painkiller that helped spark a nationwide addiction crisis.

After digesting the ruling, legal analysts explained that while the Court killed the $6 billion settlement, it doesn't take Perdue off the hook.

As the Supreme Court revealed a slate of decisions with serious implications for the families of opioid crisis victims and gravely ill pregnant women, former President Donald Trump, a convicted felon, addressed the nation he hopes to lead in 2025.

"WHY DOES FOXNEWS PUT ON SO MANY BIDEN PEOPLE, LIKE MICHAEL TYLER, COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR FOR BIDEN, WHO SPEWED LIES WITH VERY LITTLE PUSHBACK?" Trump wanted to know. "AMAZING!!!"

Hung Cao, the MAGA-backed Navy veteran who has become a formidable Virginia candidate to challenge Sen. Tim Kaine's (D-VA) after winning his June primary handily, is on his heels trying to explain statements he's made about his military service that don't appear to check out.

USA TODAY secured the 52-year-old's military records and found that after running them past fellow veterans, there appeared to be some unexplained questions.
