Opening statements in former President Trump's "hush-money" trial are expected for Monday. That's according to the judge. The six alternate jurors have been seated and the 12 jurors are already in place. The former President is accused of falsifying business records in order to cover up payments allegedly made to an adult film star just prior to the 2016 election.        A horrific scene in New York today as a man set himself on fire outside the courthouse in Lower Manhattan where former President Trump's criminal trial is taking place. Police rushed to put out the flames with fire extinguishers and blankets. The person was taken to an ambulance in critical condition.       Israel carried out what's being described as a limited retaliatory strike against Iran.
