Donald Trump's lawyers intend to appeal his staggering $83.3 million defamation lawsuit loss to E. Jean Carroll by arguing there was an 'insane' conflict of interest at the heart of the case. The former president's legal team are set to appeal on the grounds there was a conflict of interest between Carroll's lawyer and the judge presiding over her case. Trump's firebrand attorney Alina Habba claimed she was unaware that Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll's lawyer Roberta Kaplan - who are not related - worked together in the early 1990s, with the judge serving as her 'mentor', reports the New York Post.

Pikachu shocked face! lol, no one is surprised there's a close connection there and they kept it hidden. Entire case needs to be thrown out and both judge and lawyer need to be up on ethics charges.

Those two Kaplans - judge and lawyer - surely favor a lot in both physical appearance and mindset for them not to be related. Maybe they need a DNA test to make certain. They could find that they are long lost relatives.

If we use the same standard that Carroll used, she said it, not did it, then Kaplan did it, eventhough he says he didn't. Tat for Tat. Right. So there was a conflict of interest. It's not rocket science.

"Breaking News: Trump comes out fighting:" - when has he never not come out fighting because - if the rest of the r/Republicans had the same moxie that our President has this country would never have needed him to go through what he's gone through since 2016 and - he could be playing golf the way a retired gentleman should with his idle time - May God Bless him for what he's done for us since deciding to take up our fight against the communists in our federal and some state and local governments and - reward him with the greatest gift any man could have .... a quiet, serene life doing what he likes to do the most

As an aside, someone recently made a suggestion regarding the black and white photograph of President Trump with his wife Ivana speaking with another couple that is being used by Ms. Carroll as evidence that President Trump had met her even though he denies ever having met her. Ms. Carroll identifies herself as the woman in the photograph with her then-husband, John Johnson. The suggestion was to compare the teeth of the woman in that photograph with the teeth of Marla Maples, and the teeth of Ms. Carroll taken after the trial on January 26, 2024. Using a computer’s browser requesting photographs of each woman allows for a close-up comparison and, having done so, found the comparison quite interesting.

Just trying to figure out what #10 is trying to say. Has any of you ever been at a social event and be in conversation but not know names. It is curious that E. Jean Carroll has a picture like this - it indicates even more the celebrity that Donald Trump was at the time.

#11~ The suggestion to compare the teeth of the two women was to determine whether or not the black and white photograph was really E. Jean Carroll or Marla Maples; President Trump, having been shown the photograph, thought the woman was Marla Maples. If the teeth of the woman in the photograph match the teeth of Marla Maples and not E. Jean Carroll, the photograph being used as evidence of Ms. Carroll having met President Trump is invalid, illegitimate.

Not quite as sloppily intimate as Fani and Wade but just as damning. The Left barely gets finished doing a victory dance when Donald Trump manages to emerge on the bright side of things. Leftists are so crooked and vile that it makes them stupid. Add that to the minimal intelligence that made them Leftists in the first place and you have a real clown show.

Kicking off the “Siege of Paris” on Monday, thousands of farmers took to their tractors in a coordinated attempt to block off entrances to the French capital in protest against globalist green policies they say are destroying their ability to stay in business. In an escalation of the latest example of popular uprisings that have come to define President Macron’s tenure in office, farmers descended in their tractors to shut down major highways leading into Paris on Monday following a week of similar protests throughout the country.

Without coming directly out and declaring their position, it is blatantly obvious the media have staked their claim to the pro-abortion side of the debates. (Hey, if they can alter “pro-life” to now “anti-abortion,” then their alleged “pro-choice” stance can also be rebranded.) Past reporting has been clearly sympathetic to the abortion rights crowd, and the collective outrage seen following the move by SCOTUS to send Roe v. Wade back to the states sealed their bias. To further show their slant, now they are looking into the aftereffects, and can only see bad news.

Eagle Pass, TX — The effort from Texas authorities to prevent illegal border crossings in Shelby Park in Eagle Pass appears to be effective, but border crossings have persisted in surrounding areas. The Texas National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) have successfully maintained control of Shelby Park, a 47-acre park in Eagle Pass, Texas along the Rio Grande, despite attempts from Border Patrol to retake control of the park.Members of the Texas National Guard, who work alongside DPS to secure the border, told The Daily Wire that their strategy can be summarized with the acronym “PDI,” which stands for “prevent, deter, interdict.”

The $130 billion sent to Ukraine so far for its war against Russia is apparently not actually going to Ukraine, but is really “benefiting American interests,” a spokesperson for Ukraine told Breitbart News. The shock claim was in response to a request for information by Breitbart News on whether or not any American tax dollars had gone specifically to Uman, a city in the war-torn Eastern European nation that is currently seeing a condo built on a Jewish mass grave, as previously reported, in violation of a bilateral agreement with the U.S., and in violation of international law.

The legal challenge brought by Jan. 6 defendant Joseph Fischer accuses prosecutors of using an overly broad interpretation of “obstructing an official proceeding” to launch hundreds of cases stemming from the Capitol riot, including against former President Donald Trump.
Taking away Trump’s business empire

New York— Within days, Donald Trump could potentially have his sprawling real estate business empire ordered “dissolved” for repeated misrepresentations on financial statements to lenders, adding him to a short list of scam marketers, con artists and others who have been hit with the ultimate punishment for violating New York’s powerful anti-fraud law. An Associated Press analysis of nearly 70 years of civil cases under the law showed that such a penalty has only been imposed a dozen previous times, and Trump’s case stands apart in a significant way: It’s the only big business found that was threatened with a shutdown without a showing of obvious victims and major losses.
Denationizing the United States 2 replies
Posted by Imright 1/29/2024 1:37:42 PM Post Reply
The Rio Grande border conflict is not an isolated incident. It is part of the World Economic Forum program of "denationization" of the United States. In the same way that a “state” is a form of self-organization of human society, a “nation” can also be treated as a form of self-organization. These terms are different in nuance, and Russian conservative philosopher Nicolai Berdyaev was the first to devise a formula to discern between them a century ago. His analysis proceeds from the application of the eschatological way of thinking.

So many people have been crushed under the bootheel of "Bidenomics" and Bidenflation for so long. It's one of the main reasons Joe Biden's numbers are in the basement in terms of approval, particularly when it comes to the economy. First, the Biden team denied the reality of the crushing inflation, calling it "transitory." Then they claimed it wasn't Joe Biden's fault, despite his excessive spending. They blamed it on Russia and greedy corporations, among others. Now Biden has been saying prices are coming down and claiming credit, even though prices are still up more than when he came in.
Lankford Plan Helps Biden Migration, Hinders

Sen. James Lankford’s (R-OK) border proposal helps President Joe Biden import more migrants — and hinders President Donald Trump from reducing the inflow, says Rosemary Jenks, at the Immigration Accountability Project. The key problem is the so-called “trigger” authorization that automatically curbs immigration once 8,500 illegals arrive at the border in one day, or 5,000 people arrive for seven days in a row, Jenks told Breitbart News. This new trigger covertly would override an existing emergency law that allows the president to shut down the border at much lower levels of illegal migration, she said:

Independent urban legend tracking and fact-checking website Snopes took a huge amount of fire on Saturday after marking a true story about President Joe Biden wearing a hard hat backwards “false” — so much heat that eventually they reversed their own ruling and the story is now marked “true” on the site. At issue was a photo of Joe Biden wearing a hard hat backwards, which went viral on the right leaning side of social media before garnering enough attention to warrant a Snopes check. The photo, which shows Biden wearing (a) hard hat backwards, was included in the Snopes article that first called the story false.

Joe Biden went to South Carolina on Saturday to campaign. He barely does any work as it is, spends a lot of his time on vacation, but now during the little time he is actually "working," he's trying to pull himself together to campaign. It's not working. He can't seem to pull it together anymore. He was always bad but it's even worse now. Now the incoherence is more and more apparent, as is the out-of-control anger and the slurring. First, he seemed to blank out for a moment, then said, "Folks... [lengthy pause, mumbles] If were smart, I'd say thank you and leave."
