Jury rules Trump must pay E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million in damages for defamation. The news broke, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction. Finally, justice was being served. As I read the details of the verdict, it became clear that this ruling was not only a blow to Trump’s ego but also to his pocketbook. The damages were broken down into $7.3 million for emotional damage, $11 million for compensatory damages, and a whopping $65 million for punitive damages. It’s a substantial amount that reflects the severity of his defamation against E. Jean Carroll.
Of course, Trump couldn’t resist airing his grievances on his beloved platform, Truth Social.… Continue reading
I have to say, the recent rant from Trump comparing himself to a rogue cop and a pedophile priest is beyond disturbing. It’s almost comical if it weren’t for the fact that this man is the President of the United States. The level of delusion and self-aggrandizement is truly mind-boggling.
Firstly, let’s address the fact that he seems to be suffering from some form of dementia. His inability to complete a coherent sentence or stay on topic is alarming. It’s reminiscent of watching my own family members succumb to the effects of this terrible disease. How can we trust someone with the highest office in the country when he can’t even remember what he said a few minutes ago?… Continue reading
Trump warned about using campaign funds to pay E. Jean Carroll
Honestly, I never really gave it much thought before, but when I saw the headline about Trump potentially using campaign funds to pay off E. Jean Carroll, it didn’t surprise me at all. I mean, where else is he going to get the money? It’s not like he made his fortune through honest means. If he’s not grifting money from his supporters, he’s probably trying to get it from sources like the Kremlin again.
But the fact that Trump could potentially use campaign funds to hush someone he allegedly assaulted is just mind-boggling.… Continue reading
‘Oath-breaking insurrectionist’ Trump is ineligible for office, Colorado voters tell the Supreme Court
It’s a headline that many of us thought we would never see, but it seems that there may finally be some justice on the horizon. Colorado voters have taken a stand and told the Supreme Court that former President Donald Trump is ineligible for office due to his involvement in the insurrection that took place on January 6, 2021.
When I first heard the news, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief. Finally, someone is holding Trump accountable for his actions. The events of January 6 were a dark day in American history, and it is clear that Trump played a significant role in inciting the violence that unfolded at the Capitol.… Continue reading
The recent report suggesting that Trump falsified disclosures over a $48 million loan, potentially evading taxes, shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. The man seems to have made a habit out of evading taxes and engaging in fraudulent activities throughout his career. And yet, he continues to evade any real consequences for his actions.
It’s infuriating to see such blatant disregard for the law and a complete lack of accountability. If any ordinary citizen were to engage in tax evasion or falsify financial disclosures, they would undoubtedly face serious consequences. But when it comes to Trump, it seems like he’s always able to maneuver his way out of trouble.… Continue reading
Colorado voters seeking to disqualify Trump from the ballot are making a bold and necessary move. As responsible and patriotic citizens, they are doing their civic duty to clean up the mess created by the former president. The stain on US history is not simply Trump’s presidency itself, but his actions that led to the events of January 6.
Many argue that the 14th Amendment should be invoked to bar Trump from running for office again. If the Supreme Court rules against him, it will send a strong message that the Constitution is not to be undermined for political gain. On the other hand, if they rule in his favor, it would confirm the perception that the court has become another political arm.… Continue reading
Republicans Who Denounced Biden For Using Too Many Executive Orders Now Urge Him To Use Executive Orders Because They Don’t Want To Legislate
It’s fascinating to witness the hypocrisy of politicians when it comes to executive orders. When former President Trump was in office, Republicans praised his use of executive orders, often turning a blind eye to the potential overreach of his authority. But now that President Biden is utilizing executive orders, these same Republicans are singing a different tune, decrying the “record number” of orders and claiming that Biden is abusing his power. The blatant double standard is both frustrating and indicative of a larger problem within the Republican party.… Continue reading
Romney: ‘Appalling’ Trump wants to kill border bill so he can ‘blame Biden’
It is truly appalling to witness the GOP allowing someone who is not even in office to dictate their decisions. It is absurd that private citizen Trump holds this much influence over the party, and it is disappointing to see fellow GOP senators consider listening to him. Romney hit the nail on the head when he called out this behavior as ‘appalling.’
The idea that Trump wants to kill the border bill solely to blame Biden is classic Republican one-dimensional chess thinking. They seem to believe that by obstructing progress and causing chaos, they can somehow come out on top.… Continue reading
Reflecting on the recent statements made by Rudy Giuliani, it’s truly disheartening to witness such a lack of remorse and accountability from someone who was once regarded as America’s Mayor. Giuliani proudly declares that he would do it all again, despite the fact that his actions have led to his indictment. This level of arrogance and disregard for the rule of law is deeply troubling.
One can’t help but wonder how someone who achieved so much good for New York City could end up becoming such a despicable figure. Giuliani’s fall from grace is truly astonishing. He was once seen as a fighter against corruption and crime, but now it seems that he may have been one of them all along.… Continue reading
Trump calls for all willing States to deploy their guards to Texas
Trump’s recent call for various states to deploy their guards to Texas has sparked controversy and concern among many. As an outsider observing the situation, I can’t help but feel that Trump is fomenting a civil war. The idea of using armed groups to fight against government forces is deeply troubling and goes against the principles of democracy and peace.
While some may find this call to action amusing or entertaining, I take it very seriously. It reminds me of the dangerous events that unfolded on January 6th, when a small faction of individuals tried to overthrow the American government.… Continue reading
