Former President Donald Trump hit out at a “radical left revolution” occurring on college campuses as he returned to his criminal hush money trial on Thursday.
Trump faces the possibility of additional sanctions in his hush money trial as he returns to the court Thursday for an additional contempt hearing following testimony from a lawyer who represented two women who have said they had sexual encounters with Trump, which he denies.
“WE CANNOT LET THIS RADICAL LEFT, CORRUPT AND HIGHLY CONFLICTED NEW YORK DEMOCRAT JUDGE INTERFERE WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2024 — THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY,” Trump posted to Truth Social Thursday morning, while also hitting out on the dozens of disruptive pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses across the country.
“THIS IS A RADICAL LEFT REVOLUTION TAKING PLACE IN OUR COUNTRY. WHERE IS CROOKED JOE BIDEN? WHERE IS GOVERNOR NEWSCUM?” Trump posted before heading to the New York County Criminal Courthouse on Thursday.
Once he arrived, Trump declared from the halls that the 34-count hush money indictment brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg should have been brought “eight years ago,” suggesting that the timing of the indictment in April of last year was meant to interfere with his presidential campaign.
Trump on Tuesday was fined $9,000 after a judge found he violated his gag order through various social media posts and comments outside of the courtroom. Judge Juan Merchan is holding a hearing this morning over four other alleged violations, and on Tuesday warned that additional violations could result in jail time.

After the gag order contempt hearing, testimony from key witnesses in the case will continue, including the former attorney of Stormy Daniels, the porn star who received a $130,000 payment from former Trump attorney Michael Cohen that is at the center of the 34-count indictment against Trump.
The testimony from Daniels’s former attorney Keith Davidson is viewed as a key component of the prosecution’s case that Trump and his allies plotted to hide damaging stories in the lead-up to the 2016 presidential election. He is just one of several key witnesses to be called to the stand in advance of prosecutors’ core witness, Cohen.
