April 5, 2023: Trump charged with hush-money scheme, claims election interference, Wisconsin, Al-Aqsa mosque, Taiwan president
1. Former President Donald Trump was charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a historic case over allegations he orchestrated hush-money payments to two women before the 2016 U.S. election to suppress publication of their sexual encounters with him.
2. A subdued former President Donald Trump lashed out at New York prosecutor Alvin Bragg for bringing criminal charges against him and declared himself the victim of election interference without offering evidence.
3. Wisconsin voters elected liberal Janet Protasiewicz to the state Supreme Court, flipping control to a liberal majority ahead of rulings on an abortion ban and other matters that could play a role in the 2024 presidential election.
4. Israeli police entered Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa mosque in force before dawn and clashed with worshippers, drawing condemnation from Arab countries and a furious reaction in the occupied West Bank and crossborder strikes in Gaza.
5. Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen is set to meet U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in the first such meeting on U.S. soil, a plan that has drawn threats of retaliation from China, which claims self-ruled Taiwan as its own.
