Donald Trump has been forced to spend three days in court, listening to multiple Americans describe what they don't like about him — and he doesn't seem happy.

On day three of jury selection in the New York hush money trial, the pool of prospective jurors got specific about their issues with Trump.

Despite the fact that Donald Trump is currently being tried in a criminal case involving the January 6 riot and the attempt to overturn the 2020 election result, lawsuits filed by lawmakers and police officers against Trump over his actions on the day move forward, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.

Trump's effort to have the lawsuits paused until his election interference charges, brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith, are resolved was rejected by U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta, Politico reported.

A prominent group of Republicans who oppose Donald Trump are on a mission to convince voters who backed the former president in both 2016 and 2020 to switch their support to President Joe Biden in 2024 — and they're spending a lot of money to help in their effort.

Republican Voters Against Trump (RVAT) announced a $50 million multi-platform ad campaign that is designed "both to troll the twice-impeached, four times-indicted ex-president and to genuinely reach out to his most loyal supporters," according to a report from The Independent.

An arrest warrant has been issued for a Pennsylvania state lawmaker after police said he violated a protection from abuse order.

Jose A. Perez, a grassroots supporter of Donald Trump, has requested permission to file an amicus brief in the ongoing classified documents case against the former president, according to court filings on Thursday.

In legal filings, Perez told U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon that the prosecution of Trump interfered with his constitutional rights to vote and to election integrity. He claimed that the Department of Justice had been weaponized against Trump and his supporters.

Donald Trump's attorneys want his jury to get a disclaimer when they hear Michael Cohen's upcoming testimony in the election interference case involving an alleged hush money scheme.

Lawfare managing editor Tyler McBrien revealed a filing from Trump's team that involves his former lawyer's 2018 guilty plea and imprisonment for campaign finance violations and other charges. Cohen had said he'd made hush money payments to adult movie star Stormy Daniels at Trump's direction to avoid her damaging his election chances by talking about an alleged affair.

Former President Donald Trump is riding a net worth roller coaster as his eponymous media company stock plummets, recovers and positions itself to plummet again, according to a new analysis. And like a roller coaster rider, Trump is strapped in too tightly to call it quits, even if the curves make him queasy.

Forbes analyst Derek Saul Thursday published a thorough report tracking Trump Media's various plummets, free falls and a recent surprise rise.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said that she supports deporting rapists even though she backs Donald Trump, an accused rapist who was found liable of sexual abuse, in the 2024 presidential election.

During a Thursday interview with Newsmax, Mace was asked about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's (R-GA) threat to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), who has endorsed the South Carolina lawmaker.

In the midst of the third day of jury selection in Donald Trump's so-called "hush money" trial, former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance cautioned the former president to dial it back as his legal team and prosecutors working for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg attempt to move the proceedings forward.

With Trump already butting heads with Judge Juan Merchan, which has led to the scheduling of a hearing next Tuesday over accusations the former president has already committed multiple violations of a gag order the judge imposed to protect potential witnesses and jurors, Vance told MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell that the former president is testing his boundaries with the judge — and he may be in line for a valuable lesson after also making references to possible jury members.

Canadian businessman and television personality Kevin O'Leary complained during an appearance on Fox News Thursday that America's international reputation was being damaged by former President Donald Trump being prosecuted for allegedly falsifying business records to cover up hush-money payments to an adult film star.

During a roundtable discussion hosted by Harris Faulkner, O'Leary seemed to suggest that former presidents shouldn't be prosecuted unless they commit truly serious offenses such as murder.

Rumors are circulating on Capitol Hill that the Freedom Caucus is preparing to launch a FART war.

The far-right House Republican group Thursday appeared to be plotting a defensive tactic against moderate counterparts and has assembled to assist them in this effort a Floor Action Response Team, or as Politico's Congress reporter Olivia Beavers dubbed it in acronym, a FART.

Another Republican announced Thursday he's leaving the House and heading home.

Rep. Jake LaTurner (R-KS) declared his decision not to seek reelection in the fall in a public statement on X that both acknowledged and downplayed criticisms that his party has spurred chaos in the House of Representatives.
