Quick Glance: Path to Victory: Trump's NY Hush Money Trial
- The first criminal trial of any former president began with extortion, Trump should aim for an acquittal.
- Charges do not concern misconduct in settling hush money with Daniels, but entering payments to conceal another crime.
- The burden of proof for criminal intent is high, requiring proof for two layers of specific intent to convict Trump.
- A legal maneuver could allow Trump to dismiss his defense team and recruit a new team to potentially secure his case.
Leo rejects Senate subpoena from panel probing gifts to Supreme Court justices: The conservative judicial activist called the move “politically motivated ...

Quick Glance: Investigation into Gifts to Supreme Court Justices: Leo Refuses Senate Subpoena
- As part of a months-long inquiry into undisclosed gifts to Supreme Court justices, the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a subpoena to conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo on Thursday, which he promptly rejected as “politically motivated.”
- Following reports that Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. accepted free luxury travel and gifts from Crow, Leo, and conservative donor Robin Arkley II without disclosure, the committee voted to authorize subpoenas for Leo and Texas billionaire Harlan Crow along party lines.
- Democrats on the committee initiated an investigation into the justices' relationships with private benefactors after ProPublica's April report last year revealed Thomas' failure to disclose free luxury vacations and private jet travel from Crow over many years, and Leo's arrangement of a luxury fishing trip for Alito in 2008.
- With Leo's rejection, Democrats would need to hold a Senate vote to seek court enforcement of the subpoena - a nearly impossible task in a narrowly divided chamber requiring 60 votes to break a filibuster.

Trump keeps falsely claiming New York charged him millions to appeal fraud case: Trump began the appeal process in February and posted bond in April.
axios.com/2024/04/02/trump-court-fraud-cases-new-york-appeal-pay
Quick Glance: Trump's $175M Bond and Property Seizure Case Overview
- Former President Trump has secured a $175 million bond in his civil fraud case, keeping his most prized properties from being seized - at least temporarily.
- Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump, his company, and top executives liable for fraud, ordering them to pay a penalty of $464 million plus interest, with Trump alone owing $454 million.
- Despite the temporary halt, Trump still owes the state $454 million from the judgment, which increases daily, potentially leading him back into financial jeopardy.
- An appeal could result in a significant financial setback for Trump, challenging the monumental fine and other penalties imposed in the case.
