House Speaker Johnson is scheduled to deliver remarks on Donald Trump's trial outside of the courthouse in New York this morning. According to a Republican source, Johnson will be present with Trump at the courthouse. This move comes as Johnson has been increasingly aligning himself with Trump and criticizing the criminal charges against the former president, despite facing backlash from the far-right of the party.
Joining Johnson and Trump at the courthouse are North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Florida Rep. Byron Donalds, Florida Rep. Cory Mills, and former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. The presence of these prominent figures underscores the significance of the trial and the attention it has garnered.
