Photo Illustration: Annie ZhaoDonald Trump testified Monday in the $250 million civil-fraud trial that could determine the future of his business empire, saying the financial statements at the heart of the case were unimportant while also protesting the proceedings as unfair. Trump, wearing a navy suit, blue tie and an American flag pin, took the witness stand under oath in a Manhattan courtroom to face questioning from the New York attorney general’s office, which alleges he and his business engaged in a lengthy scheme to inflate the value of their assets for financial gain. The former president alternated between calmly responding to questions about his finances and drawing the repeated ire of the presiding judge, who reminded him the proceeding “is not a political rally.”

☆ From Taxi Driver to Trump Case: Colorful New York Judge Is in the Spotlight

New York State Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron , an unconventional judge with a colorful background, is rounding out a 20-year career behind the bench by presiding over the most unconventional of defendants: Donald J. Trump. Engoron, a 74-year-old former taxi driver and rock musician, is weighing allegations by Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James that the former president and his family business committed civil fraud by inflating asset values for financial gain. So far the judge has held Trump in contempt of court for not complying with a subpoena, found him liable for one type of fraud, ordered some of his companies dissolved, sanctioned him twice for violating a gag order and threatened him with imprisonment if he continues to do so.

Photo: pool/ReutersNEW YORK—Trial proceedings in Donald Trump’s civil-fraud trial took a surprise turn Wednesday when the presiding judge called the former president to the witness stand to answer for comments he made in a courthouse hallway—and then fined him $10,000. The dust-up came during the second day of testimony by Michael Cohen , Trump’s former lawyer and fixer who is now a lead witness for New York state Attorney General Letitia James . During a break in the proceedings, Trump in the hallway accused the judge, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron , and the person “sitting alongside of him” of being partisan.

Photo: jane rosenberg/ReutersMichael Cohen , Donald Trump’s scorned ex-confidant, testified against his former boss during an electric day in court, telling a New York judge that Trump commanded him to “reverse engineer” estimates of the former president’s financial wealth. The appearance Tuesday by Cohen, which came in the New York attorney general’s civil-fraud case against the former president and his business, placed the two men face-to-face five years after their bitter split. When Cohen took the stand midday and swore to tell the truth, Trump sat a few feet away at the defense table—cross-armed and stone-faced.

The White House has been barred in lower-court rulings from putting pressure on social-media platforms. Photo: Manuel Balce Ceneta/APWASHINGTON—The Supreme Court is stepping into the debate over speech rights and misinformation online, agreeing Friday to review lower-court rulings barring White House aides and other officials from pressuring social-media platforms to take down content disfavored by the government. The brief order, which put the lower-court decisions on hold until the Supreme Court rules on the issue, was unsigned, as is typical. The court’s three most-conservative justices dissented, warning that “government censorship of private speech” could result.
