Donald Trump’s New York hush money trial is heading into the final stretch with the former president insisting he did nothing wrong. Trump faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a payment to a porn actor who alleges they had a sexual encounter. The Republican denies the encounter and said at the New York courthouse Monday, “There’s no crime." Trump says all he did was pay “a legal expense.” The landmark trial kicks back off Monday with more defense cross-examination of former Trump lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen, whose testimony tied Trump to an alleged hush money scheme. The judge says he expects closing arguments to happen May 28, the Tuesday after Memorial Day.

The container ship that caused the deadly collapse of Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge has been refloated and is slowly moving back to port. The Dali had remained at the collapse site since it lost power and crashed into one of the bridge’s supporting columns in March. The disaster killed six construction workers and snarled traffic into Baltimore Harbor. Several tugboats are escorting the Dali on its 2.5-mile path to the marine terminal on Monday morning. Pieces of the bridge’s steel trusses protruded from the ship’s bow, which remained covered in mangled concrete from the collapsed roadway,
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Monday won a bid to appeal against a UK court ruling that approved his extradition to the United States to face trial for breaking national security laws.
The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court says he is seeking arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Karim Khan said Monday that he believes Netayahu, his defense minister Yoav Gallant and three Hamas leaders are responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip and Israel. The prosecutor must request the warrants from a pre-trial panel of three judges, who take on average two months to consider the evidence and determine if the proceedings can move forward.
BEIRUT (AP) — The helicopter crash that killed Iran’s president and foreign minister has sent shock waves around the region.
The International Criminal Court could soon issue arrest warrants for leaders of Israel and Hamas more than seven months into their war. ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan said Monday that he is seeking warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his defense minister and three Hamas leaders. Khan said that they are responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip and Israel. The ICC was established in 2002 as the permanent court of last resort to tackle impunity for war crimes, genocide and other grave crimes when states don’t prosecute those responsible.
A British court has ruled that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange can appeal against an order that he be extradited to the U.S. on espionage charges. Two High Court judges on Monday said Assange has grounds to challenge the U.K. government’s extradition order. The ruling sets the stage for an appeal process likely to further drag out a years-long legal saga. Assange faces 17 espionage charges and one charge of computer misuse over his website’s publication of a trove of classified U.S. documents almost 15 years ago. The Australian computer expert has spent the last five years in a British high-security prison after taking refuge in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for seven years.
