    Trump tries to delay sentencing in hush money case as Vance accuses Harris of ‘flip flopping’ during CNN interview: Live

    Donald Trump has asked a federal court to intervene in his hush money case in New York in a last ditch attempt to overturning his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, or delaying his September sentencing date.

    Trump’s lawyers pleaded with a federal judge late on Thursday night and argued that the case and evidence against him should be tossed out under the Supreme Court’s “immunity” ruling.

    Meanwhile, the former president claimed his administration will force insurance companies or the federal government to cover the costs of in vitro fertilization ( IVF ) for all Americans, despite previously touting his role in the overturning of Roe v Wade. “We wanna produce babies in this country, right?,” he said during a town hall event beside Democrat-turned- Trump ally Tulsi Gabbard in La Crosse, Wisconsin on Thursday.

    Trump will address ultra-conservative parental rights group Moms for Liberty in Washington DC this afternoon.

    Elsewhere on Thursday, Kamala Harris gave the first official interview of her campaign alongside her running mate Tim Walz , during which she declared that her “values” were unchanged, despite some reversals on key policy positions surrounding immigration and fracking.

    JD Vance quickly jumped on the comment and accused Harris of “flip-flopping” during her interview in a scathing analysis while speaking to Fox & Friends on Friday.
