Trump Faces Contempt Hearing in Hush Money Trial Over Alleged Social Media Violations
  • 6 days ago
Donald Trump's New York hush money trial is set to resume with a hearing on whether he should be held in contempt for allegedly violating his gag order 10 times on social media. If found in contempt, Trump could face fines or up to 30 days in jail. Most of Trump's social media posts referenced his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, a prosecution witness. The trial will then continue with testimony from David Pecker, the former publisher of the National Enquirer, a key figure in the alleged scheme. Pecker's role involved using the Enquirer to "catch and kill" negative stories about Trump.
