AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Closing arguments have begun in Texas in a civil trial over a so-called “Trump Train” that surrounded a Biden-Harris campaign bus days before the 2020 election.

The defendants in the case are six supporters of former President Donald Trump who took part in the convoy. A lawyer for the defendants have argued that the actions were protected speech.
