New York prosecutors told the judge who presided over Donald Trump's hush money trial on Tuesday that his sentencing should be postponed while the president-elect's lawyers file further legal arguments asking the case be dismissed. The proposal Tuesday from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office would need to be signed off on by Judge Juan Merchan to become official. A ruling against Trump on the issue would have paved the way for the judge to proceed with his sentencing, which was tentatively scheduled for Nov. 26. That case has been paused while Trump and some of his co-defendants seek to have an appeals court remove Willis from the case for an alleged conflict of interest. Trump's lawyers have contended that even if she’s allowed to remain on the case, any Trump trial would have to wait until he’s out of office in 2029 because of constitutional issues.

AdvertisementTrump's felony hush-money sentencing had been scheduled for November 26. Trump's election and SCOTUS-bestowed immunity have thrown a giant monkey wrench in the schedule. Prosecutors have said they'll tell the judge how they wish to move forward by Tuesday, November 19. Whether President-elect Donald Trump will ever get sentenced on his now six-month-old hush-money conviction could become clearer as early as Tuesday, when prosecutors are scheduled to announce — at least to the judge — how they wish to proceed with the case. Since his decisive victory on Election Day, Trump's November 26 sentencing date has remained on hold indefinitely.

The judge overseeing Donald Trump's New York criminal trial delayed a key ruling Tuesday on whether the president-elect's conviction should be set aside, according to correspondence between the parties. The court has granted them a week's delay to provide their position, the clerk informed both sides in a court filing. Donald Trump outside the courtroom as jurors began deliberating at his criminal trial at Manhattan Criminal Court on May 29, 2024 in New York City. Trump was convicted in May on 34 felony counts related to hush money payments made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. The Justice Department is now winding down the two federal criminal cases against the former and future president.

CNN —Donald Trump’s lawyers and the Manhattan district attorney’s office have agreed to delay activity in the hush money case until November 19 to give the president-elect’s lawyers time to make new arguments on how his election victory impacts the case. Judge Juan Merchan was expected to rule Tuesday on whether to overturn the business fraud conviction based on this summer’s Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. “The stay, and dismissal, are necessary to avoid unconstitutional impediments to President Trump’s ability to govern,” Bove wrote. The Supreme Court’s immunity decision also indefinitely tied up Trump’s federal election subversion case in Washington, DC. The jury should not have heard any testimony from Hope Hicks about events in 2018 when she was the White House Communications Director, Trump’s lawyers argued.

She is expected to cast the former president as an aspiring dictator, a message her campaign believes is breaking through. That argument has become the core of Harris’s pitch to voters, my colleague Erica Green, who has been reporting on the vice president for months, told me. “The Harris campaign is not one that’s driven by policy or even by enthusiasm,” Erica said. From the start, her energetic campaign “highlighted how much of an underwhelming fog Democrats were in under President Biden,” Erica told me. And unlike Hillary Clinton, Harris rarely mentions the fact that she would be the first woman to be president.

An independent, bipartisan review identified “numerous mistakes” by the U.S. Secret Service and “specific failures and breakdowns” that enabled the assassination attempt that injured former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July. “The Secret Service as an agency requires fundamental reform to carry out its mission," the members added. "Without that reform, the Independent Review Panel believes another Butler can and will happen again.”The Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the review. “The increasing demand placed on the agency during this dynamic threat environment has resulted in our people being pushed to the limit,” said Anthony Guglielmi, chief of communications for the Secret Service. The group said it identified “deep flaws in the Secret Service, including some that appear to be systemic or cultural,” including a “lack of critical thinking among Secret Service personnel” and agents’ unwillingness to “speak up” regarding potential threats.
