Former President Donald Trump is escorted to a courtroom, Tuesday, April 4, 2023, in New York. Trump is set to appear in a New York City courtroom on charges related to falsifying business records in a hush money investigation, the first president ever to be charged with a crime.

Trump’s indictment brought hundreds of people to New York City to witness the spectacle. U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal wants $40 million for Connecticut to fight hate crimes. Brookhaven finds a proposed rail terminal wouldn’t have a major environmental impact. And New York’s state budget will be at least 10 days late.
