Trump Seeks Supreme Court Intervention to Halt Hush Money Sentencing
Donald Trump is making a series of last-ditch efforts to postpone his sentencing in the New York hush money case, scheduled for January 10. After losing multiple appeals, including a recent bid to an appeals court, Trump has now filed an emergency petition with the Supreme Court, asking them to intervene and block the sentencing. While the judge has set the sentencing date, indications suggest that Trump may not face jail time. Meanwhile, Trump has expressed his frustration towards the judges involved, labeling their decisions as politically motivated. The situation continues to develop as Trump heads to Capitol Hill following his attempts to halt the proceedings.
