@pjbtime79@donnabrazile If lib judges follow the law, why are they overruled constantly? USPS is a federal instrumentality, states regulate elections but not who uses the mail.
The E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump is one of the strangest civil cases in American history. The foundational problem is this: Carroll could not identify when the alleged incident occurred — not even the year with any precision.
That should have killed the case as dead as a skunk on the road right there.
Without a temporal anchor, no defendant — regardless of guilt or innocence — can mount an alibi defense. Trump, who has maintained detailed calendars and staff records for decades, was denied the most basic tool of self-defense: the ability to establish where he was. That is not a technicality. It is a due process violation at the constitutional level.
Then Carroll produced the one piece of physical evidence she claimed corroborated her account — the dress she wore during the alleged incident. It was subsequently established that the dress was designed after the incident could have occurred. The sole corroborating evidence falsified her timeline.
The case proceeded anyway.
The resulting verdict was then weaponized in a defamation suit — where Trump was held liable for denying the allegation, while being procedurally barred from defending against it, because it was already "proven" in another court, regardless how flawed the procedure was. He was punished, in effect, for asserting his own innocence.
Compounding everything: coordinated professional and physical threats so thoroughly intimidated the legal community that attorneys refused these cases regardless of available fees. When you systematically destroy a defendant's ability to retain counsel of choice, you forfeit the right to a legitimate verdict.
An allegation is not evidence. Process without substance is not law. And a verdict produced under these conditions carries no legitimate authority — whatever its formal status.
Not only is it the right move to investigate Carroll, but every other person involved as well. Trump is owed serious damages here, and there may be a few people who belong in prison for their roles in the case.
@tedfrank@BorisSpider14@shipwreckedcrew And Robert Hur found that Biden shared classified documents with his ghostwriter, who did not have a security clearance. He wasn’t prosecuted.
@tedfrank@BorisSpider14@shipwreckedcrew Did he actually show them, or just brag? This may be news to you after 10 years, but Trump says a lot of braggadocios shit that isn’t true.
@magi_jay He wasn’t found liable of rape (even by the insanely biased jury), but then the insanely biased judge got up and explained that ACKSHUALLY he kinda was liable for rape
If Paula Jones was 1) a completely crazy person who couldn't even remember when she was assaulted and 2) whose lawsuit against Clinton was only enabled by a GOP legislature passing a temporary law to obviate the statute of limitations just to get Clinton and 3) her lawyers were funded by a GOP megadonor billionaire with some serious ethical issues -- there would have been wall-to-wall news coverage of the obvious injustice.
@3zero5stan@cenkuygur I have been to Israel and spent time in the West Bank, seen the wall, gone through the checkpoints, and talked to Palestinians. I am not Jewish btw. Eat shit!
@3zero5stan@cenkuygur …but many Palestinians have been brainwashed into a death cult where they *want* to die so their death can be a propaganda victory. And you are dumb enough to fall for it!
@3zero5stan@cenkuygur Putting accidentally in quotes isn’t an argument. The reason so many civilians are incidentally killed is because *Hamas purposefully hides under civilian infrastructure to use them as human shields.* Israel tries its best to clear the area…
