@failedtomenace @IanWilkesRacing @TimeformUS The more I bet on racing, the more I’m convinced that the “game” is fixed! A 20-1 shot with average speed numbers wins? Give me a break! It’s simply playing the lottery. Throw all the horses in a hat and pick one out. Absolutely NO skill involved. It’s a lottery!

Hey dummy, that’s a quote from a voter, not me. I bet you’re an awesome reporter.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

It is not defamation. Not even close.

It is not false to state that a man who forcibly inserted his fingers into a non-consenting woman’s vagina has raped her. That’s because, as the distinguished district judge in Carroll v. Trump explained more than once, and as dictionaries confirm, the word “rape” is broad enough to encompass forcible, involuntary penetration of the vagina or anus by fingers or some foreign object, even if under the specific criminal code provisions of some (but not all) jurisdictions, non-penile penetration is categorized as sexual abuse or sodomy.

It is therefore not defamation to state that a man who, like @realDonaldTrump, was found unanimously by a federal jury to have forcibly inserted his fingers into a non-consenting woman’s vagina, is an adjudicated rapist. Because he is.

But even if the word “rape” were categorically defined to exclude non-penile penetration (which it is not), the description of Trump as an adjudicated rapist would not be actionable under the defamation-law doctrine of “substantial truth,” which provides that, if the gist, or sting, of a challenged statement is not significantly different in reputational effect from the actual facts, there can be no liability. And here there can be no serious argument that committing forcible sexual abuse is any less morally reprehensible or reputationally damaging than committing forcible rape.

So it’s a fact and not defamatory to state that Donald Trump is an adjudicated rapist. He may be an adjudicated digital rapist, to be more precise, but he’s still a rapist, and it’s long past time that people stop pretending that he isn’t and wasn’t found to be one—or that forcible sexual abuse is somehow more tolerable than forcible rape.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Democrats - knock off the stupid ideological food fight. Find someone who can speak articulately about housing and gas costs, corruption, doesn't have a Nazi tattoo, and isn't over 80. It's not that hard.

Labor force participation has fallen to 61.5% — the lowest since 2021, erasing the entire post-pandemic recovery.

Since Trump's inauguration, over a million people have left the job market — which explains part of the reason the unemployment rate dropped last month.

In America, we try not to make statements like that about our current president.

Happy 4th to President Trump, who can effectively pursue his new anti-Communist campaign by not sending any more love letters to Kim Jong Un, the “top of the line” Communist dictator of North Korea with whom he has “great chemistry”; not lavishing praise on President Xi, the “top of the line, brilliant” Communist dictator of China; and not serving dictator Vladimir Putin, former head of the KGB, by calling him “very smart” and his bloody imperialist moves against Ukraine “genius,” and by bolstering Putin’s campaign against our democratic allies in NATO. Anticommunism is easy, Mr. President, when you start defending human rights and stop fawning over Communist tyrants! https://t.co/3TtF9bFrZc

I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all Americans on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This anniversary stands as an invitation not only to celebrate the nation’s remarkable journey, but also to reflect upon the responsibilities that the sons and daughters of this country bear to one another, and to the generations who will inherit the nation that is being shaped today. https://t.co/jIio4BBg9v

@driscoll1142 @NormOrnstein Rigged? It’s absolutely amazing how incredibly STUPID you FRUMPy election deniers truly are! There is ZERO concrete evidence to prove the 2020 election was rigged! ZERO! You idiots lost court case after court case (even with conservative judges) trying to prove otherwise!

@MonicaCrowley Dear Ms Goebbels,

Drops “a republic ending bomb”? Are you truly that dramatic and/or stupid? The “republic ending bomb” was when you fucking idiots voted The Fat Pumpkin into office!
