"Trump's Trial Strategy: Legal Backfire and Reality Check"

Former President Donald Trump's political strategy has put his legal team at a disadvantage in his criminal trial, as his tweets about potential witnesses have led to the prosecution withholding their names, impacting the defense's ability to plan cross-examinations. Jury selection for the trial has been completed, with opening statements set to begin next week. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden's presidency has been largely defined by foreign affairs, particularly the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which has become a focal point in the congressional debate over providing aid to the country.
