Trump appeals E. Jean Carroll verdict
Former President Trump has appealed the jury’s verdict that found him liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll.
A nine-member jury on Tuesday ordered Trump to pay Carroll $5 million in damages after siding with the writer in her lawsuit.
Trump’s attorneys filed a notice of appeal with the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Thursday afternoon, the first formal step in contesting the verdict. His lawyers previously indicated they would do so.
Carroll accused Trump of raping her in the mid-1990s at a New York department store and later defaming her by denying her claims.
The writer sued Trump in November by leveraging a New York law that went into effect the same day that provides survivors a one-year window to seek civil damages for sexual battery, even if the statute of limitations has passed.
The jury, sitting in federal court in Manhattan, found that Trump did not commit rape, but they agreed that he more likely than not committed sexual abuse, another way to prove sexual battery.
Carroll further sued Trump for defamation over a statement that he made in October 2022 that called her story a “complete con job” and that she “is not my type.”
Despite the jury’s finding that Trump’s denial amounted to defamation, the former president during a CNN town hall Wednesday night remained insistent that Carroll’s claims were made up.
“This woman, I don’t know her. I never met her. I have no idea who she is,” Trump said, calling her a “whack job.”
Carroll’s lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, told The New York Times they may file another suit based on those comments.
“Everything’s on the table, obviously, and we have to give serious consideration to it,” Kaplan told the paper. “We have to weigh the various pros and cons and we’ll come to a decision in the next day or so, probably.”
Carroll also sued Trump for defamation in a separate lawsuit over his initial denials when the writer came forward in 2019. But that suit has been held up over a debate regarding Trump’s immunity because he made those statements while in office.

NY Prosecutor who investigated Trump's crimes SCHOOLS Jim Jordan on subpoenas AND the rule of law
55,772 views May 13, 2023 #TeamJustice
As a prosecutor with the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, Mark Pomerantz investigated the New York state crimes of former president Donald Trump. Republican Representative Jim Jordan does not like the fact that state prosecutors like Pomerantz are seeking to hold Trump accountable for his crimes. Accordingly, Jordan misused the power of the House Judiciary Committee to try to interfere with the New York prosecution. To that end, Jordan subpoenaed Pomerantz to testify, in a feeble attempt to portray the New York prosecution as a "witch hunt."
Pomerantz appeared before the committee, as he was required to do as a result of being served a congressional subpoena. But instead of testify as Jordan had hoped he would, he turned the tables on Jordan. Pomerantz delivered an opening statement that was a blistering rebuke of Jordan personally - given that Jordan himself criminally defied a congressional subpoena rather than testify and incriminate Donald Trump. Pomerantz went on to denounce Jordan's "cynical histrionics" and refused to participate in his pathetic "political theater.
This video does a deep dive into Pomerantz's opening statement to the committee, his testimony, and the privileges he asserted in refusing to testify as Jordan was demanding.

BREAKING: New lawsuit reveals BOMBSHELL allegation against Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani
53,913 views May 15, 2023
Michael Popok of Legal AF reports on a new bombshell lawsuit filed against Rudy Giuliani not only claiming “under oath” that he is a serial predator and sexual abuser, but that he participated in a pay-to-play criminal scheme with Trump in which they were selling pardons for $2 million a pop with plans to split the money. Attention: Jack Smith.

Selling pardons for 2 million a pop should interest Jack the most, I wonder did he make any sales? Testify and keep their pardon. Also there is a trove of emails and messages that should concern Jack and lawsuit plaintiffs. I don't think Rudy has a pot to piss in, so the suit could be about others who might pay to settle for him so they can stay out of discovery, however it might be too late for that.
