The government’s first witness, David Pecker, the former publisher of The National Enquirer, had laid out the basics of his résumé and his style of “checkbook journalism” in about 30 minutes of testimony yesterday. But today was a longer, more in-depth session, running about two and a half hours. Pecker set the stage for future testimony by other witnesses and plunged into a crucial element in the state’s case: that Trump worked with allies like Pecker on “catch-and-kill,” shorthand for buying and then burying potentially unflattering stories. It was a fascinating dive, including Pecker’s narrative of agreeing during a meeting at Trump Tower in August 2015 — not long after Trump had descended his building’s golden escalator and launched his presidential campaign — to [be the “eyes and ears” of the Trump campaign](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoCqyUP0T0aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNC8yMy9ueXJlZ2lvbi90cnVtcC1odXNoLW1vbmV5LXRyaWFsLXBlY2tlci10ZXN0aW1vbnkuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zMDUmZW1jPWVkaXRfdG90XzIwMjQwNDIzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyMTM0MCZubD10cnVtcC1vbi10cmlhbCZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY0NTk1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmJ5QnKGbe4TjsUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~), keeping a lookout for rumors in what he called “the marketplace,” where salacious tales are bought and sold. Pecker’s main contact in many of these dealings was Michael Cohen, Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, who is now expected to be a key witness against him. In particular, Pecker said that he was to alert Cohen for stories involving women in Trump’s life, noting that the then-candidate was “well known as the most eligible bachelor” who “dated the most beautiful women.” “I was the person who thought there would be a lot of women to come out to sell their stories,” Pecker said. Pecker said that his arrangement with Trump also extended to writing negative stories about Republican opponents, including suggesting that Senator Ted Cruz was unfaithful to his wife and that Ben Carson had committed malpractice by leaving a sponge in a patient’s brain. Pecker called the arrangement mutually beneficial, with Trump feeding him scoops about his show “The Apprentice” and driving reader interest: Trump was “a tremendous help” for his publications. “We followed him religiously,” he said.

That payment, for which Cohen was later reimbursed, lies at the heart of the charges of falsification of business records that Trump faces. Trump denies the encounter with Daniels and the charges, calling them politically motivated. Pecker also gave an example in which The National Enquirer paid off a doorman who previously worked at a Trump building, Dino Sajudin, who was looking to [sell a story about an illegitimate child Trump was rumored to have fathered](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoCqyUP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjQvMDQvMjMvbnlyZWdpb24vdHJ1bXAtY2hpbGQtdGlwLWRvb3JtYW4tbmF0aW9uYWwtZW5xdWlyZXIuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zMDUmZW1jPWVkaXRfdG90XzIwMjQwNDIzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyMTM0MCZubD10cnVtcC1vbi10cmlhbCZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY0NTk1JnNtaWQ9dXJsLXNoYXJlJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmJ5QnKGbe4TjsUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~). The story turned out to be unfounded, but Pecker’s company, AMI, still paid $30,000 to shut it down.

Prosecutors also began to unspool the story of the Playboy model Karen McDougal, who said she had an affair with Trump, something he denies. In June 2016, Pecker sent his editor Dylan Howard to Los Angeles to interview McDougal to find out “what the details are.” Cohen repeatedly called Pecker, apparently worried about what McDougal intended to do, Pecker said. “It looked like he was getting a lot of pressure to get the answer right away,” he said. Trump has seemed largely unfazed: He listened to some legal proceedings today with his eyes closed, though his body language changed when Pecker started spilling details about the McDougal catch-and-kill deal. He began to move his head, squint and cross his arms over his chest.

The judge did not immediately rule on those violations, though that decision is likely to land soon. And indications are that he will not favor the defense’s arguments that Trump is merely defending himself from political attacks.

Are they permitted to live-tweet, text or email from the courtroom or only the overflow room? Are any members of the public in attendance in either room? — Sonia Jacobsen, Seattle, Washington Jesse: The media overflow room — a courtroom down the hall from the 15th-floor courtroom where Trump is being tried — sits about 150 people. During most of the trial days, it has been packed, particularly during jury selection when most of the seats in the actual courtroom were filled by prospective jurors. Since testimony began on Monday, that crush has been alleviated. About 50 news organizations have designated seats in courtroom. Posting on social media and texting is allowed in the overflow, but not in the courtroom. Photography, phone calls or recording are all strictly forbidden in both rooms. The public is also welcome, and people have been showing up to watch the trial, though space in the actual courtroom is limited. What else to watch - On Thursday, the Supreme Court will hear arguments about Trump’s claim to be immune from prosecution in the election interference case in Washington. Where does each criminal case stand? Trump is at the center of at least four separate criminal investigations, at both the state and federal levels, into matters related to his business and political careers.
