Donald J. Trump’s civil fraud trial over accusations that he inflated the value of his properties by billions of dollars will likely begin Monday after a New York appeals court rejected the former president’s attempt to delay it.







The appeals court, in a terse two-page order Thursday, effectively turned aside for now a lawsuit that Mr. Trump had filed against the trial judge, Arthur F. Engoron. The lawsuit had sought to delay the trial and ultimately throw out many accusations against the former president.


The case was brought last year by New York’s attorney general, Letitia James, who says Mr. Trump exaggerated his net worth in some years by as much as $2.2 billion to obtain favorable loan terms from banks. On Tuesday, in a surprising pretrial ruling, Justice Engoron struck Mr. Trump a heavy blow, finding him liable for fraudulently overvaluing his assets and stripping him of control over his New York properties.


That decision validated the heart of Ms. James’s case, but Mr. Trump is not without options. He could still challenge Justice Engoron’s ruling and seek an emergency pause of the trial, although it is unclear whether the appeals court would consider doing so.


With Mr. Trump’s liability for fraud largely resolved, the trial — which would be decided by Justice Engoron himself rather than a jury — would resolve other aspects of the case, most notably whether Mr. Trump and his company will face a financial penalty. Ms. James is seeking to recover $250 million in ill-gotten gains.



Understand New York State’s Civil Case Against Trump



Card 1 of 6


An empire under scrutiny. Letitia James, New York State’s attorney general, has been conducting a yearslong civil investigation into former President Donald Trump’s business practices, culminating in a lawsuit that accused Trump of “staggering” fraud. Here’s what to know:


The origins of the inquiry. The investigation started after Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal lawyer and fixer, testified to Congress in 2019 that Trump and his employees had manipulated his net worth to suit his interests.


The findings. James detailed in a filing what she said was a pattern by the Trump Organization to inflate the value of the company’s properties in documents filed with lenders, insurers and the Internal Revenue Service.


Fraud lawsuit. In September 2022, James’s office rebuffed a settlement offer from Trump’s lawyers. Days later, she filed a lawsuit against Trump and his family business, accusing them of a sweeping pattern of fraudulent business practices.


Two key rulings. The civil trial against Trump could begin as soon as Oct. 2, after a New York appeals court rejected the former president’s attempt to delay it. The decision came after the judge overseeing the case found that Trump persistently committed fraud by inflating the value of his assets and stripped him of control over some of his signature New York properties.


Possible penalties. James has argued that Trump inflated the value of his properties by as much as $2.2 billion and is seeking to recover about $250 million. The former president and his sons could also be barred from running any business in New York.


The appeals court’s Thursday decision to allow the trial to proceed punctuated a week of brutal legal losses for Mr. Trump as he grapples with the consequences of government investigations that, aside from Ms. James’s case, have resulted in four criminal indictments.


Ms. James’s civil case will be the first government action against the former president to reach trial. Her suit seeks to cast a harsh spotlight on Mr. Trump’s braggadocio and bluster, the traits that propelled his business and political careers, but were also the twin engines of a fraudulent scheme to fabricate his net worth.


Now that Justice Engoron has found that Mr. Trump’s actions violated New York law, the question remains: How much will he have to pay?


Mr. Trump’s best hope to derail the trial was the lawsuit against Justice Engoron, which the former president filed two weeks ago. In it, Mr. Trump’s lawyers argued that Justice Engoron had ignored an earlier appeals court decision in June that raised the prospect that some accusations against the former president might be too old to go to trial.


But the appeals court on Thursday appeared unmoved, and did not address those arguments in its order. It is unclear whether the ruling by a panel of five judges completely shut down Mr. Trump’s lawsuit against Justice Engoron. Although the ruling lifted a stay of the trial, it did not technically dismiss the former president’s claims against the judge.


John W. Moscow, a former Manhattan prosecutor who has worked on fraud investigations for decades, said that the appeals court’s denial of a delay just days before the trial is set to begin was simply common sense.


“That they denied it without comment that doesn’t strike me as in any way surprising,” he said. “That’s what you would expect an appellate court to do.”


A lawyer for Mr. Trump, Christopher M. Kise, did not respond to several requests for comment. On Tuesday, he called Justice Engoron’s ruling “outrageous” and “completely disconnected from the facts and governing law.” He said that the judge ignored “basic legal, accounting and business principles.”



A Guide to the Various Trump Investigations



Confused about the inquiries and legal cases involving former President Donald Trump? We’re here to help.


  • Key Cases and Inquiries: The former president faces several investigations at both the state and the federal levels, into matters related to his business and political careers. Here is a close look at each.


  • Case Tracker: Trump is at the center of four criminal investigations. Keep track of the developments in each here.


  • What if Trump Is Convicted?: Will any of the proceedings hinder Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign? Can a convicted felon even run for office? Here is what we know, and what we don’t know.


Mr. Trump has denied all wrongdoing. A Republican, the former president has accused the judge and the attorney general, both Democrats, of being politically motivated, and has called Justice Engoron “deranged” and Ms. James, who is Black, a racist.


At the center of Ms. James’s case is the accusation that Mr. Trump’s annual financial statements exaggerated his net worth. Mr. Trump, she said, submitted the statements to banks to obtain favorable loan terms.


Mr. Kise, in turn, has argued that Mr. Trump could not have committed fraud because the banks made money off the loans and the former president never missed a payment.


But lawyers from the attorney general’s office have countered that, under the powerful state law allowing them to bring the case, they did not need to show the fraud had resulted in financial harm. Justice Engoron agreed in his Tuesday opinion, and sanctioned each of Mr. Trump’s lawyers $7,500 for continuing to advance arguments they had previously made.


His order also left the future of Mr. Trump’s business in New York hanging in the balance.


While his decision ordered the dissolution of the legal entities Mr. Trump uses to control his New York assets, it has yet to be determined whether the order will force Mr. Trump to sell his properties — including Trump Tower, his golf club in Westchester County and the towering office building at 40 Wall Street in the heart of the Financial District. Instead, the judge might allow an independent monitor to control the properties for some time while Mr. Trump continues to own them.


The contours of the Tuesday order are likely to become clearer after the trial, at which Ms. James’s lawyers will seek further punishment as they attempt to convince Justice Engoron that the former president should pay the $250 million fine and be permanently barred from running a business in New York.

Chechen Leader Kadyrov Assures Putin That Special Op Fighters Will Fully Fulfill His Orders

Chechen Leader Kadyrov Assures Putin That Special Op Fighters Will Fully Fulfill His Orders

Chechen Leader Kadyrov Assures Putin That Special Op Fighters Will Fully Fulfill His Orders











Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Ramzan Kadyrov in the Kremlin, where the president and the head of Chechnya discussed the situation in the republic, the social sphere, and the participation of Chechen fighters in the special military operation.







"Best wishes to the soldiers. Best wishes to their families. I know that you personally deal with these issues all the time, including support for the families of our soldiers who are fighting on the front line - fighting confidently, well, courageously, heroically," Putin said.


The president noted that he is pleased Chechen units have good contacts with other formations and higher units.


Kadyrov, for his part, said that the fighters were in good spirits and that all their questions and problems were being solved. The troops are capturing Ukrainian soldiers every day and destroying enemy equipment.


"No, Abrams tanks are not frightening. [...] And so, today the fighters have a good mood, I sometimes look in - how and what. Absolutely all their problems are solvable, there are no problems: communication, equipment. [...] We have bought a thousand armored vehicles from the beginning of operation and to date," Kadyrov said.


"Vladimir Vladimirovich, if we don't carry out your orders, then we don't live, we will 100% fulfill your order," Kadyrov promised.


He said that Chechnya is the only region in Russia that has formed five regiments and three battalions, all of which are now taking part in the special operation.


Speaking about the situation in the republic, Putin noted that the dynamics are positive. He stressed that this is due to Kadyrov and his team, who are confidently working and cooperating well with the federal government. The president recalled that there are many serious tasks and programs, and invited Kadyrov to discuss pressing issues.

G.O.P. Rivals Try to Shake Up Race With Frenzy of Attacks in 2nd Debate

G.O.P. Rivals Try to Shake Up Race With Frenzy of Attacks in 2nd Debate

G.O.P. Rivals Try to Shake Up Race With Frenzy of Attacks in 2nd Debate





Former President Trump, the party’s front-runner, skipped the debate but took few hits as his rivals bickered.








As he sat in the spin room with the Fox News host Sean Hannity after the second Republican debate on Wednesday night, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida accurately summed up the spectacle he had just participated in.







“If I was at home watching that,” Mr. DeSantis said, “I would have changed the channel.”


The meandering and at times indecipherable debate seemed to validate former President Donald J. Trump’s decision to skip it. With only occasional exceptions, the Republicans onstage seemed content to bicker with one another. Most of them delivered the dominant front-runner only glancing blows and did little to upend the political reality that Mr. Trump is lapping all of his rivals — whose cumulative support in most national polls still doesn’t come close to the former president’s standing.

Here are five takeaways from 120 minutes of cross-talk, unanswered questions, prepackaged comebacks and nary a word mentioning the heavy favorite’s legal jeopardy.


Punches grazed Trump, but the status quo remains.


But by the end of the 120-minute slog of a debate, that line felt more like an aberration that blended into the background. The candidates mostly seemed to intentionally ignore Mr. Trump’s overwhelming lead — other than Mr. Christie, who took an awkward stab at a nickname (“Donald Duck”).


In a memo to donors before the debate, a pro-Mike Pence super PAC had a blunt take: “This race needs to be shaken up, and soon.”


The race seemed barely stirred.


The 91 criminal counts Mr. Trump is charged with went unmentioned — both by the moderators and the candidates ostensibly running against him. And while the former president did sustain more criticism than in the first debate, the seven candidates onstage spent most of the night poking at one another, in what could feel like a pitched battle for second place.

Tim Scott hit Nikki Haley over curtains and a gas tax. Ms. Haley sideswiped Mr. DeSantis over fracking. Vivek Ramaswamy was hit over his past business ties to China. And he accused everyone of not knowing the Constitution. Chris Christie tried to turn things back to Mr. Trump — suggesting at one point that he “be voted off the island.”


It all amounted to a muddy mess.



DeSantis offers a glimpse of what his supporters have wanted



Mr. DeSantis’s allies believed that his first debate performance, despite some criticism from the news media about a seeming lack of aggressiveness, was effective. And they wanted a repeat performance.


They largely got it. Mr. DeSantis made the most of the night’s lone question on abortion to criticize Mr. Trump for attacking Florida’s restrictive six-week abortion ban. He largely evaded a question about his past remarks about his state’s curriculum on slavery, in which he suggested some enslaved people were taught valuable skills.


At the outset, Mr. DeSantis seemed assertive and in command. Other than an extended back-and-forth with Ms. Haley, he mostly avoided shouting matches.


He also did his best to find spots to enter the discussion, after being largely ignored by the Fox Business moderators for much of the first hour. That enraged his advisers, but he ultimately ended up speaking more than anyone.


He found a way to push back on the moderators at the end, when one asked the candidates to write on whiteboards which candidate they would vote “off the island.” As most of them shook their heads, Mr. DeSantis said the question was “disrespectful,” letting everyone else move on.


But his only glancing mentions of Mr. Trump made it hard to imagine the governor suddenly closing what has become a yawning gap with the former president. And, moments after the debate ended, Chris LaCivita, a senior Trump adviser, issued a statement calling for the Republican National Committee to cancel further debates, suggesting that Mr. Trump felt at least no immediate pressure to join the debating fray.



Haley cemented her spot near center stage



Ms. Haley, whose solid performance at the first debate had ignited fresh interest from some major donors, appeared comfortable standing center stage. She took aim at Mr. DeSantis and fended off attacks from Mr. Scott, whom she first appointed to the Senate.


“Honestly, every time I hear you, I feel a little bit dumber for what you say,” Nikki Haley told Vivek Ramaswamy. Credit Credit... Courtesy of FOX Business


In between, she rattled off one of the evening’s more memorable lines — “every time I hear you, I feel a little bit dumber,” she snapped at Mr. Ramaswamy as he talked about why he joined TikTok.


Ms. Haley, like Mr. DeSantis, targeted Mr. Trump, saying he had focused on the wrong issues — namely the trade deficit — while combating China’s growing influence. She ticked off a number of areas where he had left America vulnerable, including the foreign purchase of farmland and the operation of a Chinese spy base in Cuba.


“We need to start focusing on what keeps Americans safe,” she said.


More than anything else, Ms. Haley’s rising standing was confirmed by the fact that some rivals began to pick apart elements of her record as governor and United Nations ambassador.

Mr. Scott at one point forced her into a detailed discussion of the gas tax in their state. But she seemed ready to engage.


“Bring it, Tim,” she told him.



Tim Scott reasserted himself. Tim did, in fact, bring it.



The senator from South Carolina had faded into the backdrop of the first debate and slumped in the polls. But from the opening moments of Wednesday’s contest, he jostled for time and, notably, mixed up his sunny brand of optimism with some sharp jabs at both Mr. Ramaswamy and Ms. Haley.


Notably, he did not target Mr. Trump.


Perhaps his strongest moment of the evening came in the exchange with Mr. DeSantis over Florida’s curriculum on slavery. He mostly glided past the specifics — though he said there was “not a redeeming quality” in slavery — to talk about his life story and how it led to him standing at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library as the only Black candidate onstage.


“I have been discriminated against, but America is not a racist country,” he declared.


It was a line familiar to those who have seen him on the stump but squarely in line with his candidacy’s central pitch, and one he hopes can prevent him from falling further toward the periphery of the stage.

Ramaswamy showed a kinder, gentler side. Immediately after the first debate, many pundits quickly declared Mr. Ramaswamy the winner. He drew outsize attention by shredding his opponents with personal attacks. At one point, he went so far as to accuse them of corruption, saying he was the only one onstage who wasn’t bought and paid for. But the polling data that emerged after the debate did not support the narrative that he had won. Republican voters developed an increasingly negative view of Mr. Ramaswamy, and he is performing poorly in early-state polls compared with his relative strength in national online polls.


So on Wednesday night, it was Ramaswamy 2.0 — a conciliatory candidate who was chastising his competitors for attacking one another and repeatedly going out of his way to say how much he liked and respected them.


Instead, Mr. Christie filled the role of combatant-in-chief on Wednesday, from his new nickname for Mr. Trump to a cringe-inducing reference to President Biden’s “sleeping” with a teachers’ union member — his wife. (Mr. Pence, who was far less a presence than in the first debate, decided to inject that he’d been sleeping with a teacher for decades, too — also, his wife.)


Nobody bought Mr. Ramaswamy’s reinvention. The other candidates seemed at times to be bonding over their shared disdain for him. Ms. Haley prompted laughs from the audience when said she felt dumber every time he talked. Mr. Scott attacked him for doing business in China. And apart from the attacks on Mr. Biden, the harshest lines of the night were aimed at Mr. Ramaswamy.

Ukraine Loses 390 Military in Donetsk Direction in Past Day - MoD



Ukraine has lost up to 390 military both killed and injured in the Donetsk direction over the past 24 hours, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.


Over the given period, the Russian armed forces have repelled 10 attacks by Ukrainian troops in the Donetsk direction, two attacks in the Krasny Liman direction and one attack in the South Donetsk direction.


"During the day of hostilities, enemy losses amounted to up to 390 Ukrainian military personnel killed and wounded, four tanks, nine infantry fighting vehicles, seven vehicles, and two US-made M777 artillery systems," the ministry said in a statement.


In the South Donetsk direction, Ukraine has lost over 150 military, the statement read.


Ukraine launched its latest counteroffensive in early June. Three months later, Russian President Vladimir Putin said the Ukrainian counteroffensive had failed, with Ukraine suffering over 71,000 casualties. Several Western officials have also admitted that the Ukrainian counteroffensive has not been successful.




Special operation, September 27. Main:



  • The US Senate proposes to agree on $4.5 billion in aid to Ukraine instead of the $24 billion requested by the White House. As military expert Leonkov explained to RIA Novosti, this is necessary to quickly allocate money to plug holes in the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine;


  • The United States has created a reconnaissance and strike system in the Black Sea region, directly fighting against the Russian Federation, so its Global Hawk drones should become an air defense target - the destruction of even one such UAV will reduce the danger of Ukrainian Armed Forces attacks on Crimea, military analyst Korotchenko told RIA Novosti;


  • The attack on Sevastopol on September 22 was carried out by Kiev in close coordination with the United States and Britain and was planned in advance using Western intelligence assets, Zakharova said;


  • The Russian Armed Forces have advanced in the Kharkov region, the head of the regional administration said: the main positions, strategically convenient for further advancement, are occupied by Russian troops;


  • The wreckage of a drone with an explosive device was found in the Kalininsky district of the Saratov region, no one was injured, the region’s dispatch service told RIA Novosti;


  • Shoigu checked the progress of the state defense order at the enterprise of the Tactical Missile Weapons Corporation in the Moscow region; over six months, the volume of production of high-precision weapons at KTRV enterprises increased twofold, and for some types - 3.5 and 5 times;


  • According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, in one day the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost about 750 military personnel in all directions, 19 units of armored vehicles and 15 howitzers, 19 Ukrainian drones were destroyed, aviation, artillery and missile forces of Russia inflicted defeats on manpower and equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in 108 regions.


BBC Admits Ukrainian Counteroffensive Failed



Contrary to Western expectations, the much-touted counteroffensive attempt launched by the Kiev regime on June 4 has stalled without making a breakthrough, BBC news reported, citing Ukrainian soldiers.


The broadcaster's correspondent spoke to servicemen of the 24th Mechanized Brigade and their families, who have complained about preparing for "a long war with no end in sight."






"The summer counteroffensive in Ukraine is drawing to a close without making the breakthroughs so many had hoped for," the reporter stressed.


Despite the enormous amount of military equipment supplied by NATO countries to Ukraine, the West has failed to "outgun Russia," with Russian forces successfully repelling Ukrainian attacks, destroying and capturing foreign military equipment.


"The Ukrainians say [Russia] has far more drones, which makes camouflage and remaining unseen vital. So, we were expecting a fire mission within 5 minutes, and then word came down on the radio to stand down because a Russian drone has been sighted somewhere near here," the report said.


If Ukrainian forces fail to hide, Russian troops wipe out their vehicles and military personnel. This is typical of what has been taking place: a constant battle of wits, a deadly battle of wits. This Russian video shows what happens if you get it wrong: Ukrainian self-propelled guns destroyed.


Moreover, even when Zelensky's troops do take cover, the Russian forces reduce their strongholds to rubble. Hence, the Ukrainian troops either continue protecting NATO's interests in constant fear, or they desert to save their lives.


However, those who fail to surrender to the Russian forces are killed by their own comrades, as there are special units in the Ukrainian Army tasked with murdering their own men for refusing to "die a pointless death."


Adding up to a rather bleak mood among the Ukrainian soldiers, the BBC reporter mentioned the uncertainty of when their demobilization will happen.


"No date has been set for their demobilization. It's extremely hard to live with that. Just how hard we saw at the medical center, where one casualty was being brought in. It was described as a panic attack and even armed presence was setting people on edge," the correspondent emphasized.
