President Donald Trump likely lied to special counsel Robert Mueller about conversations he had in 2016 regarding WikiLeaks’ plans to release information stolen from Democrats by Russian hackers. That’s the big takeaway from dramatic courtroom testimony that occurred Tuesday in the trial of Roger Stone. The revelations came from Rick Gates, a former Trump campaign aid who took the stand as federal prosecutors wrapped up their case against Stone, the longtime Trump adviser who was charged with lying to Congress about his efforts to interact with WikiLeaks in 2016.

  • Trump Trial Day 2: Gag Order And A Pecker
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 04/23/2024 - 06:16 PM

    Day 2 of the Donald Trump Election Interference Criminal Trial was a rocky one - for Donald Trump and his lawyers. It started off with the long awaited Gag Order Hearing where Trump's lawyer, Todd Blanche, got the legal equivalent of a tongue lashing that surely left bruises. A bit of the highlights, from both sides: Out of the gate. "Defendant has violated this order repeatedly and hasn't stopped," prosecutor says, adding that Trump even did it on Monday in the halls of the courtroom. — Kaelan Deese (@KaelanDC) April 23, 2024 Lots of back and forth about posts and statements, but the prosecutors make it clear that they have Trump's number.
