> A federal judge Monday dismissed former President Trump’s claim that E. Jean Carroll defamed him in May after a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing the writer. > > The day after the verdict, Carroll appeared on CNN and indicated Trump had raped her. The jury had not found Trump liable for rape under New York’s definition, but instead found him liable for sexual abuse. > > Trump then claimed Carroll’s insistence on CNN amounted to defamation, filing a counterclaim in Carroll’s other lawsuit that has not yet gone to trial. > > U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan on Monday dismissed Trump’s argument, ruling Carroll’s statement on the cable network was substantially true and that “[t]here would have been no different effect on the mind of an average listener.” > > “The difference between Ms. Carroll’s allegedly defamatory statements — that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as defined in the New York Penal Law — and the ‘truth’ — that Mr. Trump forcibly digitally penetrated Ms. Carroll — is minimal. Both are felonious sex crimes,” Kaplan ruled. > > Kaplan, a Clinton appointee, separately rejected Trump’s defense that he has “absolute presidential immunity” in the case.

- This is my soap box
You are welcome to vent as well. Discuss how republican cunts have affected your life.
That whole ideology is a cancer.
- Have you noticed the strong anti political on Lemmy?
I praise this so much. Communities wanting to avoid politics. On either end of the spectrum.
I've seen calls for banning both nazis and tankies. It gives me a small glimmer of hope. The average internet user is against these extreme views. They want a community to talk, discuss specific things. Without it devolving into political grand standing.
This community, “tHe_dOnAlD” is political. But only to hold the domain. To prevent another hate fueled community from forming.
Be good to each other. Be real. Political bullshit invades our lives everyday. Just remember your class. Your fellow human.
SUPPORT TRANS RIGHTS. SUPPORT THE RIGHT FOR WOMEN TO CHOOSE
Spit on those wanting to force hatefilled ideology onto you.
- Daily reminder. Tr*mp is a cunt. DeSantis is a cunt. Republicans are brainwashed fools.
You can join the real world again. People are accepting. Disavow your echo chamber. Open your eyes. Accept you have been lied to.
- I support freedom. I support individual right to choose.
What does that even mean? I know a lot of republicans struggle with this concept. Don’t bully them. Their smooth brains struggle.
Guns kill people. Every other country has solved this problem. Control who has access to guns. Do you really think you will stand up to the entire government, military, with a single assault rifle? Grow the fuck up. Make your community better. Stop living in perpetual fear.
Women have a right to decide for themselves. Abortion is always an option. A ball of cells is not a baby. Its not murder. Stop forcing rape victims to birth.
Christian ministers, priests, reverends. These are the single biggest perpetrators of molestation. Supporting christianity is supporting the destruction of childhoods.
How many drag queens have been arrested abd charged? How many catholics?
look inwards. take a moment to consider why you’re being built, pushed, towards hate.
You can change. You can open your eyes. You can be accepted. I have forgiveness for those who are genuine. Reality is here for you.
do you not consider why you’re attacked or ostracised from society? Its because your views are toxic. Your views are hateful. Your views go against what the majority of humanity wants and stands for.
You can be better. You can grow and learn.
Hand in your fascist card. We can accept you. Just let go of your hate and anger.
Propaganda has blinded you. Its your choice to simply turn away. Help exists wherever you reach out.
Open your eyes.
Open your eyes
We are here for you. We are here to support your journey back to reality.
It’s scary. But you have support. Just ask.
- PATHETIC - Trump finds no new lawyers for court appearance in Mar-a-Lago casewww.theguardian.com Trump finds no new lawyers for court appearance in Mar-a-Lago case
Exclusive: Trump is expected to be represented by existing lawyers Todd Blanche and Chris Kise
- If it wasn't obvious. Fuck De Santis too. Fuck his cancerous beliefs.
Some seem to think this is some sort of "rEpUbLicAn PsYoP".
I don't know how much clearer I can make this.
Republicans are scum. You are not welcome.
I'm not even american. I have my own local conservative bullshit to deal with. Which is handled elsewhere.
The conservative belief is nothing more than "no change. Live in the status quo".
You are history. You are the bottom of society. You will be left in dust, in the history books. But they will remember you. You will be documented for generations to come as enemies of humanity.
Conservative beliefs are humanity's cancer.
- The average republican
Once upon a time, we saw the "red scare". The manifestation of Mccarthyism.
And today, we see the same party. The same group of people. Begging for attention from the one person who sold them out.
If it wasn't so dangerous, I'd laugh.
Fascism is taking over the world.
> Donald Trump. Vladimir Putin. Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Bashar al-Assad. Kim Jong Un. Boris Johnson. Rishi Sunak.
Each of these people hate the average citizen. Their game is to turn the average citizen against each other. To fight among ourselves, rather than turning our ire and disgust to the causes.
> Bernard Arnault. Elon Musk. Jeff Bezos. Larry Ellison. Warren Buffett. Bill Gates. Michael Bloomberg. Carlos Slim Helú. Mukesh Ambani. Steve Ballmer.
This is a list of the richest people in the world. They are only as rich as they are because they have taken your wealth. Your labour, your sweat, your blood. It has made these people rich. They live to extract every single gram of wealth from you as possible. As soon as you have no more to give, you will be thrown away.
Do not give them what they want. Do not fight your fellow working class. There are many fascist working class people who have been deluded into supporting the 0.1%. This group needs to join reality.
I don't know how clear I can be. Fuck the right. Fuck republicans. Fuck billionaires.
The real working class. The every day person. The people who see the cancer destroying this world. The ones who want to stand up, to have their voice heard. I support you. I will help you. I am there for you.
But you need to denounce your fascist beliefs. You need to join reality.
Reality has a left wing bias. For a god damn reason.
I am using this community as my soap box.
I don't give a shit.
- Modlog is public. Nothing is hidden.
This is a left wing space.
Personally I am aggressively anti right. Anti fascist. Anti trump.
