According to the lawsuit, Habba “acted as if Ms. Bianco was her friend,” urging Bianco to fire her lawyer and offering to give Bianco advice. According to the lawsuit, Habba encouraged Bianco not to go public with her accusations and to instead sign a “simple” NDA. Bianco eventually signed the settlement that included the NDA and an undisclosed sum of money, according to the lawsuit. Shortly after the settlement was signed, according to the lawsuit, Habba began publicly representing Trump and stopped assisting Bianco. “Habba didn’t need to text heart emojis anymore, she had accomplished her goal of protecting Donald Trump and of silencing Ms. Bianco,” the lawsuit says.

Special counsel Jack Smith disclosed in a court filing Wednesday that investigators had more tapes of interviews with Trump conducted by non-government entities and recorded with his consent but did not say what the tapes said or how they were obtained. The new reporting provides more insight into how the special counsel conducted its investigation and what kinds of evidence it has. The special counsel previously revealed it obtained audio of an interview Trump gave at Bedminster for Mark Meadows’ memoir in which the special counsel says Trump shared classified information with visitors and aides. Sources familiar with the investigation told CNN the Trump team does not believe the additional recordings are as incriminating as the recording referenced in the indictment unsealed this month. Trump’s team and the special counsel’s office declined to comment.

June 14 (Reuters) - Former President Donald Trump's 2024 White House campaign said on Wednesday he had raised $7 million since being indicted on federal charges last week, as his message of political persecution continues to resonate with die-hard supporters. "President Trump Raises Over $6.6 Million and Counting Since Deranged Jack Smith Announced Political Prosecution," Trump's campaign wrote in an email to supporters on Wednesday, referring to the U.S. special counsel investigating him. Over $4.5 million came from digital fundraising while $2.1 million was raised from a donor event on Tuesday at Trump's Bedminster Club in New Jersey. After word emerged in March that Trump was going to be charged, his campaign raised $7 million in three days, according to senior adviser Jason Miller. Trump's nearest rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has a roughly $85 million political war chest, currently held in a state account.

June 9 (Reuters) - Here are five takeaways from Friday's indictment accusing former U.S. President Donald Trump of illegally retaining classified government documents after leaving the White House and then conspiring to obstruct a federal probe of the matter. TRUMP SHARED CLASSIFIED INFORMATION WITH OTHERSDuring a July 2021 interview with a writer at his Bedminster Club in New Jersey, Trump allegedly described a "plan of attack" against another country that a military official had drawn up. TRUMP KEPT DOCUMENTS ON BALLROOM STAGE, IN SHOWEROne photo included in the indictment shows boxes allegedly containing classified documents being stored in a bathroom at Mar-a-Lago, where events and gatherings took place. TRUMP WAS AWARE OF CLASSIFICATION RESPONSIBILITIESThe indictment includes statements Trump made during his campaign and presidency indicating he understood the importance of handling classified material appropriately. "In my administration I'm going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information," Trump said during his campaign in 2016.

Most people recall the “Access Hollywood” tape of Trump using vulgar language to argue that “stars” can grab women. It also adds his Bedminster club to the potential locations where Trump had classified documents after leaving office. In response to the report, a Trump campaign spokesman said “leaks” are meant to “inflame tensions” around Trump. (The document Trump references was not produced by Milley, CNN was told.) Besides the ongoing investigations into the aftermath of the 2020 election, here’s what else is looming over Trump.
