A New York appeals court judge on Tuesday denied former President Donald Trump's motion to pause his upcoming criminal trial, while considering arguments against a gag order.
It was the second time in two days New York's Appellate Division, First Department declined to push back his trial, slated to begin April 15. An attorney for Trump argued Tuesday that the gag order, which prevents Trump from posting broadsides against the daughter of the judge, is unconstitutional.
Counsel for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg shot back that Trump has a track record of attacking the family members of people involved in cases against him.
An American Airlines jet with 60 passengers and four crew members aboard collided with an Army helicopter Wednesday night while coming in for a landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington. The Black Hawk helicopter was carrying a crew of three. Officials said early Thursday that everyone on board both aircraft is believed dead, which would make it the deadliest U.S. air crash in nearly a quarter century.
