Trump hush money: Judge rejects former president’s request to delay trial until Supreme Court rules on immunity
SUMMARY: A judge rejected Donald Trump’s request to delay his hush money trial until the Supreme Court rules on his immunity claims. The judge deemed the request untimely and questioned the sincerity of the motion. Trump’s lawyers argued he is immune from prosecution for actions taken during his presidency. Prosecutors disagreed and the trial is scheduled for April 15. The hush money case centers on payments made to Michael Cohen to suppress negative stories during Trump’s 2016 campaign. Trump’s immunity claim is being challenged in multiple criminal cases. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments on the matter on April 25.

Former President Trump at the Dallas NRA Convention Saturday Afternoon
SUMMARY: Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at the National Rifle Association conference in Dallas, leading to the Democratic National Committee placing mobile billboards outside the venue accusing Trump of prioritizing the gun lobby over Texas families. The billboards feature quotes from Trump regarding gun violence and criticize his actions in rolling back reforms that made it easier for criminals to carry guns. The DNC argues that Trump’s loyalty lies with the NRA and not the safety of American families.
