As Trump Simmers at Trial, Judge BBQs Rudy on Money Claims 4/22/24

The Mark Thompson Show

On the first day of former President Donald Trump's trial, the proceedings started with a focus on key witnesses, including David Pecker. Pecker is a longtime ally of Trump and the CEO of American Media Inc. and has been known to kill damaging stories about Trump in a "catch and kill" scheme. We'll review the way it was done.
Pecker's testimony is anticipated to shed light on Trump's connections to hush-money payments and potential campaign finance violations, adding another layer to the complex legal battle surrounding Trump.
Meatime, a federal bankruptcy judge is allowing creditors to hire a specialized team to investigate Rudy Giuliani’s sources of income, assets and liabilities.
Giuliani’s chapter 11 case was filed three days after he lost a defamation lawsuit brought by two poll workers.
Some political analysts are tying the passage of the Ukraine funding bill in the house to a sinking presidential campaign for Donald Trump. Does his loss on this issue show that his control of Republicans is slipping?
We’ll hash those issues out with our favorite Britisher, journalist Anthony Davis.
Courtney is calling us all back around the fire pit for another story on True Crime Corner.
