Live coverage: Trump sentenced; Supreme Court hearing TikTok ban
President-elect Trump was sentenced on Friday in his hush money conviction, but the judge overseeing the case opted to not impose any punishment in a brief hearing in New York in which Trump and his attorney appeared virtually.
In brief remarks, Trump told the judge that he believed the case was an "injustice of justice" and expressed no remorse, failing to take any accountability for his conviction on 34 charges of falsifying business records.
"The fact is, I'm totally innocent," Trump said over a video call to the courtroom.
The sentencing in New York was the final step in securing Trump's status as the first person convicted of a felony to assume the presidency when he is inaugurated in just more than a week.
At around the same time as Trump's sentencing on Friday, the Supreme Court began hearing arguments that will determine the future of the social media platform TikTok. The justices are hearing oral arguments about a federal law that could ban the video-sharing platform nationwide in less than 10 days.
And also in Washington, D.C., Rudy Giuliani is slated to take the stand in a criminal contempt case over accusations he has continued to make false statements about a set of Georgia election workers he accused of election fraud in 2020.
