E Jean Carroll tricked (lied to) the Jury and awarded $83.3 million from Trump

E. Jean Carroll Admits to “Tricking” the Jury Into Thinking She Was “F**kable” Enough for Trump

Well, well, well—turns out courtroom drama isn’t just for TV. It’s alive and well in real life, starring none other than E. Jean Carroll, the woman who accused President Donald Trump of assault and walked away with an $83.3 million payday. But here’s the plot twist: she just admitted the whole thing was basically a Broadway production, and she was playing a role.

Yep. In a jaw-dropping moment of honesty—or maybe just arrogance—Carroll flat-out said her legal team’s strategy was to trick the jury by making her look “f**kable.” Her words, not ours. She literally recreated her look from 1996, hiring the same makeup artist, doing her hair the way she used to, and dressing like she stepped right out of a Clinton-era time machine. All to convince a jury that, sure, she was the kind of woman Donald Trump would allegedly pursue.

“It was enough. It was a trick,” Wack job Carroll said with a smile. And there it is. Not a courtroom confession. Not a tearful apology. Just a smug little shrug as she admits she helped sway a jury not with facts, but with fashion and face powder.

Watch her admission for yourself. It’s like watching someone admit they cheated on a test *after* the grade was already handed out. Don’t say we didn’t warn you

Jury sides with Daniel Penny, not Alvin Bragg

New York City jury sides with Daniel Penny

In May 2023, former marine Daniel Penny and his fellow subway riders nearly became the next victims of a horrible crime after career criminal Jordan Neely threatened to hurt them.

A clearly disturbed Neely made continued threats to the people around him that forced Daniel Penny to take action, putting Neely in a chokehold until they arrived at the next station. However, given Jordan Neely’s crippling drug addiction and poor health, the career criminal died on the scene.

Rather than siding with the marine, New York’s woke District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Penny with one count of second-degree manslaughter and one count of criminally negligent homicide.

In New York City, second-degree manslaughter carries a maximum sentence of 15 years while criminally negligent homicide carries a maximum sentence of four years. However, a New York City jury found Daniel Penny not guilty of the crime of criminally negligent homicide. This comes after the judge in this case tossed out the higher charge of second-degree murder due to a hung jury.

Democrats--Abuse of the Justice System

A Good Reason to Vote for Trump

Democrats have made the election a referendum on their abuse of the justice system.

President Joe Biden’s Justice Department is still trying to imprison his chief political rival—including for alleged offenses similar to ones that Justice’s special counsel believes Mr. Biden himself committed.

(Justice won’t charge Mr. Biden—the special counsel reported that our current president is too cognitively impaired to prosecute.) But when it comes to jailing Donald Trump, the possibly good news for Mr. Biden and clearly bad news for our republic is that friendly Democrats in New York City appear to have done the dirty work for him.

The obscene spectacle in a Manhattan courtroom seemed to be an almost daily reminder that the protections for the accused that we all learned about in school do not exist for Donald Trump in the chambers of Juan Merchan.

He allowed falsehoods to be repeated to a jury, allowed prejudicial irrelevant testimony to paint the defendant in the worst possible light, and allowed a prosecutor with an obvious bias against the defendant to bring the case in the first place. To top it off, as the defendant prepared for trial he was not even told precisely how he was supposed to have committed felonies."

Trump case decided before final verdict?

Juror’s Alleged Cousin Posted “Trump Is Getting Convicted” a Day Before Verdict Announced

The judge presiding over former President Trump’s New York criminal trial notified his defense team on Friday of a comment on the court’s public Facebook page that implies one of the jurors discussed the guilty verdict with family before the trial concluded.

Fox News obtained the letter Judge Juan Merchan shared with Trump defense attorneys and Manhattan prosecutors.

“‘Today, the Court became aware of a comment that was posted on the Unified Court System’s public Facebook page and which I now bring to your attention. In the comment, the user, ‘Michael Anderson,’ states:
“’My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted! Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!’”

I heard on Fox last night that the Judge could order a mistrial if this is true and he could then order a new trial. As a commenter said, "The whole trial was a kangaroo court just to keep President Trump from running for office. The whole thing was POLITICAL."

Cohen's Credibility--does he have any?

'Crying little sh**': Michael Cohen spars with Trump attorney in fiery exchange

'At that time, I was knee deep into the cult of Donald Trump'

Trump's attorney Todd Blanche asked Cohen whether he had gone on TikTok and called him a “crying little sh*t” after the trial had started. “Sounds like something I would say,” Cohen replied.

The response was standard whenever Blanche brought up Cohen’s past statements, such as calling Trump a “boorish, cartoon misogynist” on the first episode of his podcast.

Blanche likewise pointed out Cohen’s desire for Trump to be convicted — a desire Cohen has repeatedly vocalized. The jury at one point saw a t-shirt from Cohen’s podcast store showing Trump in an orange jumpsuit behind bars, which Blanche noted he wore on his TikTok live stream just last week.

Judge Juan Merchan on Friday instructed prosecutors to tell Cohen to stop speaking publicly about Trump and the case. Is that a joke?

Alvin Bragg smells of partisan prosecutorial abuse


Most political pundits and legal experts – including those former prosecutors who populate the cable news networks – have said that of all the cases brought against President Trump the campaign finance case is the weakest. And apparently so.

We need to keep in mind that it only takes one juror who believes that Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg did not prove his case beyond a reasonable doubt and Trump walks.

If that does happen, I bet Bragg would not attempt to re-try the case since a much later trial would have no influence in the campaign. The case is so bad that I think the odds favor a hung jury with more than one juror refusing to vote to convict.

Prosecuton trying to make Trump look like a Sleazeball

Judge Makes MAJOR Ruling in Manhattan Trump Trial

In the latest episode of what feels like a never-ending legal drama series starring former President Donald Trump, we’ve got some juicy updates that’ll make your head spin – and possibly make you chuckle at the absurdity of it all.

Trump, known for his “subtle” demeanor (insert sarcasm here), found himself in a Manhattan courtroom looking every bit the part of a man who’d rather be anywhere else. Why? Because District Judge Juan Merchan just threw a curveball that even Trump’s fingers couldn’t catch.

Merchan ruled that the transcript of Trump’s infamous Access Hollywood tape could be read into the record during the trial. Yes, the very same tape where Trump shared his, let’s say, “unique” approach to wooing women. However, the prosecution’s request to play the actual tape was denied.

Imagine the scene: attorneys dramatically reading out those lines in court. It’s like a bad SNL skit, except it’s real life.

In the end, all of this will be for nothing, as I expect Trump to still emerge victorious in this trial and once he’s elected President again, this will all go away, unless, of course, this Democrat anti-Trump jury gives him the finger.

Democrat Judge Merchan dismisses a potential Juror

Judge Dismisses Trump Juror over Concerns About Her Identity Becoming Public

New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan “abruptly” dismissed a previously approved juror on Thursday after she raised concerns about her identity becoming public, according to court reporters.

The woman told the judge overseeing the case that she had developed concerns about her identity becoming public. Although the judge has kept prospective jurors’ names private, they have disclosed their employers and other identifying information in court.

After excusing her, the judge, Juan M. Merchan, instructed reporters to no longer detail where a prospective juror works. “I have the legal authority to do it,” the judge said of blocking the news media from reporting identifying employer information.

Below is an Axios description of the seven jurors chosen on Tuesday:

1. The foreman, who works in sales, lives in Harlem but is originally from Ireland.
2. A native New Yorker who’s an oncology nurse.
3. A corporate lawyer originally from Oregon.
4. A self-employed IT consultant who lives on the Lower East Side but grew up in Puerto Rico.
5. A teacher and lifelong New Yorker. She was the only juror in the box who said they didn’t know Trump was charged in three other cases.
6. A software engineer who works for Disney.
7. A lawyer who lives on the Upper East Side.

An Assault on America

Trump Blasts ‘Assault on America’ Before First Day of Trial

Donald Trump expressed his thoughts before entering court on the initial day of his criminal trial in New York.

Prior to the commencement of jury selection in the trial for accusations related to hush money reimbursements, the ex-president spoke to the media and described the proceedings as “An attack on the United States!”

“This is an assault on America! Nothing like this has ever happened before. There’s never been anything like it. Every legal scholar says this case is nonsense, it never have been brought. There has never been anything like this. There is no case… People that don’t necessarily like Donald Trump say they is an outrage this case was brought.” Trump said.

“This is political persecution, a persecution like never before..."

Election Interference of which we have never seen before

'This is an assault on America'

Trump rages at the 'nonsense' hush-money case and says he is 'HONORED' to be in Manhattan court to defend himself against a 'political persecution'

Donald Trump said when arriving at the courthouse in Manhattan on Monday for the first criminal trial against him that the charges are 'an assault on America.'

The former president left his Trump Tower home on Monday to prepare for the start of jury selection in his historic first criminal trial alleging he falsified documents related to his hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.

Trump said he was 'honored' and 'proud' to be facing the charges and appearing in court on Monday for the start of jury selection.

Jury selection for the case began yesterday and prospective jurors will be asked at least 42 questions ranging from their views on extreme groups like Antifa and QAnon and how they consume their news.

Meanwhile, both pro and anti-Trump demonstrators gathered outside the Manhattan courthouse on Monday morning.

NAR socked with $1.8 billion for fee inflating

The National Association of Realtors got socked with a jury-awarded verdict of $1.8 billion yesterday after a trial found the organization guilty of conspiring to inflate real estate commissions.

The outcome of the trial will likely have far-reaching implications, not only for how real estate agents get paid by clients, but also in political terms: Realtors are some of the most politically active donors in Florida.

A federal jury in Kansas City on Tuesday found the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and some of the largest real estate brokers in the country guilty of colluding to inflate real estate commissions.

Why it matters: The verdict is a major shake up to the U.S. real estate market and could change how Americans purchase homes, or specifically, how they pay for broker fees.

When I was in the business, the fee was 6% for the sale and it was split between the listing agent and the selling agent. Rentals were at 10% and split the same way. Being out of the business for several decades now, I have been informed that the fees are basically the same.

Former Lake Worth Police officer awarded $7.1 million in lawsuit

Jury awards former Lake Worth police officer $7.1 million in breach of contract case

'Having to fight your employer for your rights, I never felt like I retired,' Joseph Viera, who served with Lake Worth police, told WPBF 25 News.

Viera was responding to an emergency call back in 2001 when his life turned upside down.

"There was ... a woman that was in distress. She was being attacked by two men wielding a knife. And on his way to the call, he got T-boned by a car, which resulted in career-ending injuries," said Daniel Lustig, an attorney at Pike & Lustig.

"Most of my spine has been fused. I’ve got severe nerve damage. My spinal cord was damaged, my neck was fractured, both hips, both knees, my shoulder. I’ve got paralysis in areas of my body," Viera said.

The city of Lake Worth declared him catastrophically injured in 2001 but they didn't want to pay him all his benefits that were owed to him.

But guess what??!! WPBF 25 News reached out to the city of Lake Worth Beach for a comment in response to the $7.1 million verdict, and the city manager sent this statement below.
"The City of Lake Worth Beach respects the Jury's decision in the case with Joseph Viera. At this time, the City plans to appeal the decision and as such will be offering no further comment on this matter."

A change of Venue is Needed in Washington D.C.

Roger Stone says nearly all DC voters disqualified to serve on Trump jury

Political consultant Roger Stone said that nearly all Washington, D.C., voters should be considered disqualified from serving on the jury in the case of former President Donald Trump.

“Next, the big issue will be, ‘Oh, he has to be gagged. He can’t defend himself publicly because it might taint the jury pool,’” Stone said.

“I’ve been in this jury box. I’ve been in this courtroom. I’ve stood in the dock there. This jury pool is already tainted. There will not be a single Republican," he added.

95% of Washington D.C. are Democrats. In 2020, Trump received 18,586 or 5.4% of the total vote.
