Watch live: Donald Trump speaks at Florida rally after pleading not guilty to 34 felony counts

Trump said nothing as he entered the courtroom or when he left roughly an hour later. He previously called the charges politically motivated.

Bragg, who took office in 2022 and initially slowed the office's move toward indicting Trump, said additional evidence not available to his predecessor led to moving forward now. He didn't elaborate on the evidence or how it came to prosecutors' attention.New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg speaks after Trump's arraignment on Tuesday."We're going to fight it.

While falsifying business records in New York on its own is a misdemeanor punishable by no more than one year in prison, it is elevated to a felony punishable by up to four years in prison when done to advance or conceal another crime. The former publisher of the National Enquirer, David Pecker, offered to look out for negative stories during Trump's presidential campaign, prosecutors said. American Media Inc, its parent company, paid McDougal $150,000 US to buy the rights to her story but then kept it secret. It also paid a former Trump Tower doorman $30,000 US to buy the rights to an untrue story about a child Trump had allegedly fathered out of wedlock.

Absolutely not. There is zero reason for you to be airing this deranged rant and giving it oxygen. Do better please.

Witch hunt

Why?

Oh come on! This is Canada. Why are you covering all these lies?

It’s amazing Canadians are so into Trump and a hooker. Trudeau in bed with China and its crickets from the media and his followers. This country is seriously decaying! CBC reports propoganda.

The Ballad of Bonnie and Trump

Ha ha ha...no Melania or mention of her as his family. Maybe the 'pool guy' knows why?

I'm watching the ex president invite civil war in the USA, while painting targets on the backs of people (including lawyers and judge) and their families, who are doing their jobs with integrity and courage. Every time I think I've seen the worst, the bar keeps getting lower.
