Trump trial: Biden calls Trump's remarks 'dangerous'
Trump was found guilty on all 34 felony counts in his hush money trial.
Former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 felony counts related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It marks the first time in history that a former U.S. president has been convicted on criminal charges.
Trump last April pleaded not guilty to a 34-count indictment charging him with falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment his then-attorney Michael Cohen made to Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election.

Jury wants readback on how to consider evidence
"We did receive another note" from the jury this morning, Judge Merchan said.
According to Merchan, the jury wants the readback to begin with a description of how the jury should consider that evidence, and what should be drawn from the testimony.
Second, the jury said they want headphones "for use with the evidence laptop."
Merchan says the jury will get both headphones and a speaker so they can listen to the evidence.
Proceedings are underway
Judge Juan Merchan took his seat on the bench and began the day's proceedings.
After introductions from the lawyers, Merchan said his usual, "Good morning, Mr. Trump."
Before Merchan entered the courtroom, one of the court officers left a document on the bench and handed copies to both parties.
Trump, prosecutors arrive
Former President Trump has entered the courthouse for the day's proceedings.
The prosecution team has arrived in the courtroom. Prosecutor Josh Steinglass was seen reviewing documents with a court reporter.
Court staff preparing binders for readback testimony
Ahead of the start of deliberations this morning, court stenographers are sorting through seven enormous transcript binders that are scattered around the jury box.
With the jury requesting readbacks of testimony, the transcripts are set to play a key role in this morning's proceedings.
About 60 members of the press are packed into the gallery ahead of the proceedings.
Court ends for day after judge says he'll mull requested testimony
Prosecutor Josh Steinglass walked Judge Merchan through each of the disputed portions of the transcript regarding the 2015 Trump Tower meeting, detailing the page and line number for each disputed portion that the jury had requested be read back.
For some of the portions, defense attorney Todd Blanche expressed concern about providing too much information -- not just regarding the topic of the meeting but its repercussions -- while Steinglass argued that some of the testimony could create confusion for the jury.
"This issue is both confusing and difficult to correct," Steinglass said.
Merchan said that "for the sake of time," he would take the transcript with him after the proceedings conclude and make a decision.
Told about about another dispute, Merchan said, "I will take this with me into chambers and let you know what I think."
He then stepped off the bench and told the parties he would see them at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow.
Trump rose from his seat, looking tired, and exited the courtroom with his entourage.
