folks, for the appeal. yet another trump associate is heading to prison. broke. humiliated, and begging for money. also, the republican front-runner himself was on the witness stand today, for all of three minutes, as the defense rests in the e. jean carroll defamation case. plus, the horrifying post-roe consequences. nearly 65,000 pregnancies from rape in the 14 states with abortion bans. but we begin tonight in new york, where donald trump fresh off his new hampshire primary victory, making him the all but certain republican presidential nominee, addressed a much smaller crowd today. a nine-member federal jury in the second civil defamation trial brought by writer e. jean carroll. separate jury last year found trump liable for both sexually abusing carroll in the late 1990s and defaming her in recent years. yeah, let s just take a moment to remember that. the presumptive republican presidential nominee is someone who has been found liable for sexual abuse. he was ....
