New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted by a grand jury on federal criminal charges, according to two people familiar with the matter, an extraordinary culmination to weeks of searches, subpoenas and resignations of top officials that have thrust the city's government into crisis.

Donald Trump is to plead not guilty to the charges in a revised indictment accusing him of seeking to overturn the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, according to a court filing on Sept. 3.

Trump, in a filing with the U.S. District Court in Washington, waived his right to be present at his arraignment on the charges and instructed his attorneys to plead not guilty.

President Joe Biden branded Donald Trump "reckless" Friday after the Republican lashed out in rambling, angry comments at verdicts in New York making him the first former U.S. president to become a convicted felon.

The dramatic climax to Trump's hush money trial came five months before the November 5 election, when the tycoon hopes to unseat Biden and make a shocking return to power.

Donald Trump on Thursday became the first former U.S. president ever convicted of a crime after a New York jury found him guilty on all charges in his hush money case, months before an election that could see him yet return to the White House.

Donald Trump engaged in "election fraud" by paying hush money to a porn star just days before the 2016 White House vote, prosecutors said Monday at the first ever criminal trial of a former U.S. president.

In a historic moment, former US President Donald Trump appeared in a New York courtroom on Monday to commence his trial over allegations of falsifying business records, marking the first time a sitting or former US president has faced criminal charges in court.
