Former US President Donald Trump addresses the crowd during a 2024 election campaign event in Columbia, South Carolina, on January 28, 2023. James is suing Trump, the Trump Organization , three of his adult children — Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump — and others for what she said was widespread fraud involving false financial statements and improper valuation of real estate assets . Trump and the other defendants last week responded to the lawsuit with a court filing that contained so-called verified answers to the allegations. One would be the judge assuming that Trump had effectively admitted the allegations that he and his co-defendants had improperly denied. Wallace pointed to the Trump defendants' denial in James' lawsuit that Trump remained the inactive president of the Trump Organization while serving in the White House.

A Manhattan jury convicted Donald Trump's company of all 17 tax-fraud counts on Tuesday. But he would not implicate anyone named Trump — not Donald Trump, who he worked for since the 1980s. And not any of Trump's three eldest kids — Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, or Ivanka Trump, who have all served as Trump Organization executive vice presidents. Back during jury selection in late October, defense lawyers had the darnedest time finding Manhattan residents who didn't hate Donald Trump. They certainly did not look like Donald Trump's C-suite of well-paid, white-collar white men.

Opening arguments are set to begin Monday in the high-profile criminal case against the Trump Organization, the former president's family-run company that helped make him a household name. The star witness for prosecutors will be Allen Weisselberg, the company’s longtime chief financial officer who is currently on paid leave from the Trump Organization. He was indicted alongside the Trump Organization last year after a yearslong investigation into the company’s financial practices by the Manhattan district attorney’s office. The Trump Organization faces up to about $1.6 million in penalties if convicted on all counts. They're seeking unspecified money damages, and the trial will feature videotaped testimony that Trump gave in the case last year.
