Trial

 NY Times: Live Updates: Tabloid Publisher Resumes Testimony in Trump Trial - David Pecker is testifying about concealing the Playboy model Karen McDougal’s claim of a sexual relationship with Donald J. Trump. Prosecutors say the deal to buy her story and bury it was part of a broader conspiracy.

Pecker said that Trump’s former fixer, Michael Cohen, encouraged Pecker to buy her story, and that Trump described McDougal as “a nice girl,” leading Pecker to believe Trump knew her.
