Judge's dismissal of Trump docs case not final as long court fight looms

A judge's stunning decision to dismiss the classified documents case against Donald Trump brought an abrupt halt to what experts have considered the strongest and most straightforward of the prosecutions of the former president. But it's hardly the final word. Special counsel Jack Smith's appeal of US District Judge Aileen Cannon's order is expected to tee up a court fight that might reach the US Supreme Court and could result in the reinstatement of the indictment and even conceivably the reassignment of the case to a different judge. There's no scenario in which a revived prosecution could reach trial before the November election and it presumably won't take place at all in the event Trump is elected president and orders his Justice Department to dismiss it. Still, Cannon's order ensures many more months of legal wrangling in a criminal case that became snarled over the last year by interminable delays. The only good thing about this is that it is finally a decision, said Nancy .

Trump silent on his medical care for days since assassination attempt

Four days after a gunman's attempt to assassinate former US president Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally, the public is still in the dark over the extent of his injuries, what treatment the Republican presidential nominee received in the hospital, and whether there may be any long-term effects on his health. Trump's campaign has refused to discuss his condition, release a medical report or records, or make the doctors who treated him available, leaving information to dribble out from Trump, his friends and family. The first word on Trump's condition came about half an hour after shots rang out and Trump dropped to the ground after reaching for his ear and then pumped his fist defiantly to the crowd with blood streaming down his face. The campaign issued a statement saying he was fine" and being checked out at a local medical facility. More details will follow, his spokesperson said. It wasn't until 8:42 pm, however, that Trump told the public he had been struck by a bullet as ...

Ramaswamy's fiery speech at Convention brings applause from US Republicans

Making his maiden appearance before the Republican National Convention, Indian-American entrepreneur-turned-politician Vivek Ramaswamy has asked Americans to vote for former president Donald Trump to revive national pride and reignite the economy. Ramaswamy, 38, a former presidential aspirant who dropped off from the race in the early stages of the Republican primary, said Trump is the president who will unite America not through empty words but through action. If you want to seal the border, vote Trump. If you want to restore law and order, vote Trump. If you want to reignite our economy, vote for Trump. If you want to revive national pride, vote for Trump. If you want to make America great again, vote for Trump, he said. Ramaswamy's fiery speech attracted multiple standing ovations and the biggest applause from the thousands of delegates and party leaders who have gathered in this city to nominate Trump as their nominee for the November 5 presidential election.

Trump's security upgraded after attack, agents wall him off from RNC crowds

On the floor of the Republican National Convention Tuesday evening, vice presidential candidate JD Vance greeted and shook hands with excited delegates as he walked toward his seat. It was a marked contrast from former President Donald Trump, who entered the hall a few minutes later and was separated from supporters by a column of Secret Service agents. His ear still bandaged after an attempted assassination, Trump closely hugged the wall. Instead of handshakes or hellos for those gathered, he offered fist pumps to the cameras. The contrast underscores the new reality facing Trump after a gunman opened fire at his rally in Pennsylvania Saturday, raising serious questions about the agency that is tasked with protecting the president, former presidents and major-party candidates. Trump's campaign must also adjust to a new reality after he came millimeters from death or serious injury - and as law enforcement warns of the potential for more political violence.

3 days after attempted assassination, Trump shooter remains elusive enigma

After three days, an enigmatic portrait emerged of the 20-year-old man who came close to killing former President Donald Trump with a high-velocity bullet: He was an intelligent loner with few friends, an apparently thin social media footprint and no hints of strong political beliefs that would suggest a motive for an attempted assassination. Even after the FBI cracked into Thomas Matthew Crooks' cellphone, scoured his computer, home and car, and interviewed more than 100 people, the mystery of why he opened fire on Trump's rally Saturday, a bullet grazing the GOP nominee's ear, remained as elusive as the moment it happened. He sat by himself, didn't talk to anyone, didn't even try to make conversation, said 17-year-old Liam Campbell, echoing the comments of classmates who remembered the shooter in this quiet community outside of Pittsburgh. He was an odd kid, but nothing about him seemed dangerous, he added. Just a normal person who seemed like he didn't like talking to people. So
