Former President Donald Trump faces mounting legal troubles. On Thursday, he was charged with conspiracy, obstruction, and violating constitutional rights tied to the January 6 Capitol riot, pleading not guilty. Additionally, Manhattan prosecutors gained access to Trump’s video testimony in the E.
Jean Carroll defamation case, where he was found liable for sexual abuse, resulting in a $5 million judgment. This testimony may feature in Trump’s March 2024 trial on charges of falsifying records related to a hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels.
Trump deems the investigations politically motivated, insisting on his innocence.
