The US attorney’s office also turned over 30,000 pages related to documents seized from five iPhones and email accounts associated with Cohen. Why were the documents turned over so late? Trump’s attorneys and prosecutors are pointing fingers at one another over the reason the US attorney’s office did not turn over tens of thousands of documents until this month. But the district attorney says that Trump’s attorneys are to blame for the delay. Prosecutors argue that Trump’s attorneys raised no issues with the document production made in July 2023 until six months later with the January subpoena.

AdvertisementNo matter who you believe on the "bloodbath" comments, Trump's speech was full of other dark premonitions and statements — undisputed by his campaign — that foreshadow a grim campaign ahead as the country girds for a 7-month-long rematch between Trump and President Joe Biden. Here's a transcript of Trump's "bloodbath" comments at the Dayton, OH rally yesterday. It technically wasn't even a Trump rally. Beginning his speech, Trump called the defendants "unbelievable patriots." "I don't think you're going to have another election in this country if we don't win this election," Trump told his supporters.

While discussing the U.S. economy and its auto industry, Mr. Trump promised to place tariffs on cars manufactured abroad if he won in November. Mr. Trump mentioned Bernie Moreno, his preferred Senate candidate in Ohio and a former car dealer from Cleveland, only sparingly.

With his general-election matchup against President Biden in clear view, Mr. Trump once more doubled down on the doomsday vision of the country that has animated his third presidential campaign and energized his base during the Republican primary. While discussing the U.S. economy and its auto industry, Mr. Trump promised to place tariffs on cars manufactured abroad if he won in November. He added: “Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a blood bath for the whole — that’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a blood bath for the country.”For nearly 90 minutes outside the Dayton International Airport in Vandalia, Ohio, Mr. Trump delivered a discursive speech, replete with attacks and caustic rhetoric. He noted several times that he was having difficulty reading the teleprompter.

▼ + stars: | 2023-02-04 | by ( Jack Stebbins | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Former President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign, as part of a $450,000 settlement of a class-action lawsuit by a former campaign aide, agreed to void non-disclosure agreements that hundreds of campaign workers and volunteers had signed as a condition of their work. The deal, revealed Friday in a court filing, ended a lawsuit filed by former Trump campaign aide Jessica Denson in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. "This compromise is in fact a total victory for Jessica Denson, and all 2016 Trump campaign workers," said David Bowles, a lawyer for Denson. The Trump campaign will pay $450,000 in the settlement, the vast majority of which will cover Denson's lawyers' fees and costs. Prior to the settlement, the 2016 Trump campaign said it would release all employees, contractors and volunteers from any non-disclosure or non-disparagement agreements.

☆ I prescribe the popular weight-loss drug semaglutide to my patients. I hesitate to call it a magic bullet.

Dr. Paul Kolodzik has been prescribing semaglutide to his diabetic patients since 2017. The one regret he hears from patients on the drug is they can't enjoy food as much. Before that, I was an emergency physician for about 25 years, caring for patients with strokes, heart attacks, and diabetic emergencies. I started prescribing semaglutide under the label Ozempic to my diabetic patients in 2017Novo Nordisk, a global pharmaceutical company, developed Ozempic as a medication for diabetics to control their blood sugar. So, physicians started prescribing some patients who weren't diabetic Ozempic off-label since Ozempic is not approved for weight loss — even though it's the same generic medicine.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks during a pre-election rally to support Republican candidates in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, U.S., November 5, 2022. WASHINGTON — After weeks of intensifying speculation, former President Donald Trump said Monday that he will make a "big announcement" on Tuesday, Nov. 15 from his Mar-a-Lago resort, where he is expected to launch his 2024 presidential campaign. "I'm going to be making a very big announcement on Tuesday, Nov. 15 at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida," Trump said at a Save America rally in Vandalia, Ohio on the eve of the midterm elections. A Trump spokesman did not respond to a request from CNBC to confirm that his Nov. 15 event will be a campaign launch. Instead, his remarks sounded far more like a tailor-made rally speech for his own upcoming presidential campaign, with strong echoes of his 2016 campaign speeches.
