Former President Donald Trump's conviction on 34 felony counts in the Manhattan hush money case last week has led to a flurry of calls from his allies to get the Supreme Court to step in and save him.

But it's just not that simple, one legal expert told Salon — on the contrary, it would be a "long shot" to even get the court to hear the case, let alone decide anything in his favor.

Fresh off of a conviction in his criminal hush money trial former President Donald Trump sat down Sunday for an interview with 'FOX & Friends Weekend' that saw him showcasing some serious anxiety, a body language expert says.

In what some suspect was heavily edited, Trump was sized up by the body language expert who — after nine years of analyzing the man — says this was only the second time he's witnessed Trump positioning his feet in such a way that screams lack of confidence and discomfort.

Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) has formally sent budget recommendations to defund multiple prosecutors and agencies investigating Donald Trump.

In a letter to Chairman Tom Cole (R-OK) of the Committee on Appropriations, Jordan outlined budget cuts to prevent what his committee called the "weaponization" of government under President Joe Biden. Jordan said his proposals should be included in the fiscal year 2025 appropriations bills.

The Supreme Court is "in-your-face corrupt" — and working to help former President Donald Trump get re-elected however it can, Andrew Perez wrote in a blistering analysis for Rolling Stone published on Monday.

The court is getting ready to decide a pair of cases that could heavily impact whether Trump can be tried for conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election — and as Justice Samuel Alito is refusing to step aside from participating in them, despite recent reporting that he has flown symbols associated with MAGA conspiracy theories at his house.

The fight is far from over after former President Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felony counts of falsification of business records — because he has multiple strategies available to him to challenge it, experts said.

According to Politico, "The former president has made no secret that he plans to challenge the verdict against him in the hush money case — and attorneys say he has an extensive menu of legal avenues to pursue. Some think he has a decent chance of a reversal."

After a Manhattan jury convicted Donald Trump on 34 criminal counts in District Attorney Alvin Bragg Jr.'s hush money case, countless Republicans rushed to the former president's defense — even some GOP members of Congress who have been quite critical of him at times, including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME).

On Monday, CNN's Daniel Dale offered a vigorous fact-check of the pro-Trump GOP talking points that have followed the verdict.

Viktor Bout, a Russian arms dealer dubbed the "merchant of death," endorsed former U.S. President Donald Trump and suggested a new American civil war was needed.

While guest-hosting with Alex Jones on Monday, Bout was asked about his views on Trump.

Rep. John Rose (R-TN) brought his son to work — but things didn't go quite the way he may have anticipated.

After the Memorial Day holiday recess, members of Congress returned to Washington where they began hearings and gave their typical five-minute floor speeches.

Donald Trump shares a lot of similarities with Adolf Hitler, according to an expert on Nazi Germany.

The former president has reportedly praised Hitler for doing "some good things," and shared a video on social media dreaming of a "unified Reich" if he wins re-election. And Henk de Berg, a professor of German at the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom, told The Guardian that he saw many similarities in the rhetorical strategies and self-promotion of Trump and the notorious German leader.

"The View" opened Monday ridiculing Donald Trump as a "big baby" and blasting "emotional support senators" — with particular focus on Marco Rubio (R-FL).

Over the weekend, Trump spoke with Fox News hosts about his recent conviction on 34 felony counts.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) blasted Republican members of Congress for their blind "worship" of convicted felons like former President Donald Trump.

At a Monday hearing with former National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, Raskin said Republicans did not want to find the true origin of COVID-19.
