1. Holy crap, really????

I'm truly amazed.

I guess there really *is* an end to the appeal process.

[irisblue]

2. GOOD! Bout damn time

[johnnyfins]

3. You just know [Redacted] is seething about

this. That thought makes me happy.

[irisblue]

18. Me too. Ketchup gotta be flying

[EuterpeThelo]

22. Yeah

I think I'll celebrate with this song, hoping that's what's next.

[malaise]

4. E Jean is my queen

Rec. Rec. Rec!

5. Trump is adjudicated rapist

End of story.

Now she needs to get the 80 million more that she was awarded because Trump didn’t
follow the court’s order to not speak about or defame Ms. Carroll after he lost the first
case.

[malaise]

13. To quote LetMyPeopleVote

This makes me smile 😀😀😀

[HappyH]

6. That's great news

But Donald still owes her about $80 million for her defamation lawsuit. Pay the nice lady Donald!

[Jacson6]

7. Her lawyers got the money. They will take their 90% cut so it leaves her $1.5M of the award. n/t

[popsdenver]

16. Don't forget that any lawyer

connected to that case, is gonna get audited out the kazoo by Trump's IRS.........like forever! Just because Trump can order them to do so......along with her..........

[multigraincracker]

26. She said she would be donating it to charities.

That and lawyer fees are deductible. That would leave her a million in a tax refund.

[sop]

38. Kaplan hasn't disclosed her fee arrangement, but attorneys in civil actions usually receive from 33% to 40%

of the final award, more if it goes to trial, but not 90%.

[Jacson6]

50. She has to pay all legal costs

Experts and trial consultants must be paid also.

[sop]

53. Reportedly, Carroll's legal team at Kaplan Hecker & Fink received $7 million in funding from American Future Republic,

a nonprofit organization backed by billionaire Democratic donor and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. Most likely Carroll's legal fees and costs were more than the $7 million received from American Future Republic, so she may still owe Kaplan. We don't know what sort of fee arrangement Carroll made with Kaplan. I seriously doubt she'll have to pay Kaplan 90% of the $5.6 million, plus the $7 million already paid her.

[onenote]

43. Can you provide us with a copy of her engagement letter with her lawyers, since you seem to have it.

[Torchlight]

54. Victims typically see 45-55% of gross judgement

after fees and attorneys in cases ranging from one to ten million.

[yaesu]

8. tRump is going to be in such a bad mood today, we should all post about this on socials

Get his fatty blood pressure to rise.

[popsdenver]

17. Nah,

he makes more than that every hour from his grifting.............

[Botany]

19. Be a shame that Trump gets to read and or see this all over the place.

That would really get him upset. If he was innocent all he had to do was give a DNA sample which
he refused to do so.

[Coolgoober]

9. Fantastic

Now she can donate to things trump hates.................. just because. That's what she said she would do with it. And I would bet she already has a list.

[Baitball Blogger]

10. Leaders around the world are laughing at Trump.

[Justice matters.]

52. And they weep for the loss of the United States as a strong ally.

To abject Fascism.

They know from experiencing it for a while how much pain and destruction it brings.

[dawn5651]

11. wow i honestly thought she would never get the money the court ordered her to be paid.

[sheshe2]

12. Woot!

[Nittersing]

34. I haven't seen "woot" in a long time.

It made me smile!

[sheshe2]

47. Glad I could help with that!

[OGBuzz]

14. Best news in a very long time.

[Sneederbunk]

15. Carroll should do the response for Dems Thursday night.

[Ray Bruns]

20. I guess the subject matter for Trump's Thursday speech just changed.

[malaise]

23. I'd love her to hold a public press conference with the Epstein victims

and remind them to never stop fighting against these pedos and rapists.

[JoseBalow]

21. Butthurt drumpf will surely attack her out of frustration in 3... 2... 1...

[rurallib]

24. Finally, a small amount of accountability for Trump

a small but satisfying victory.

Coupled with the IRS decision yesterday, I hope this is just the beginning of dominos falling.

[DoBW]

25. raper-felon

Will always be raper-felon

[niyad]

27. Now when does she get the $83 million judgment??

[SheltieLover]

30. That's what I want to know!

[onenote]

44. Status of the $83 million judgment:

In May, after rejecting Trump's last attempt to get the second circuit to reverse the judgment, that court, with Carroll's consent, stayed the release of the payment pending the outcome of a forthcoming petition for certiorari that Trump has until July 28 to file with the supreme court but that won't be dealt with by the court prior to the new session in October.

In addition, notwithstanding the payment of the $5 million judgment, Trump still has a petition to reconsider the denial of certiorari in that case pending at the Supreme Court. Not going to venture a guess as to when SCOTUS will address that petition, but the fact that it didn't act quickly knowing that the money was about to be released would seem to suggest that they aren't likely to grant rehearing -- something that is very rare.

[struggle4progress]

49. I suspect the court's already stumbling across thin ice. Many people already regard them as partisan hacks --

and protecting their wannabe dictator from civil suits, after they already decided to grant him sweeping immunity for malicious prosecutions or selling pardons, is going to decrease their longterm political support further

[pfitz59]

28. Hopefully her win will inspire others.

Everyone he defrauded, assaulted or defamed. One way to bankrupt him, permanently.

[SheltieLover]

29. A tiny fraction of what slob owes her, but a step in the right direction.

Attention: Ketchup bottles please evacuate areas where slob is present to prevent loss of your lives.

[orangecrush]

31. ...

[littlemissmartypants]

32. Outstanding!! I love Feminist Justice. ⚖️ ❤️

[Dawson Leery]

33. This has to be the first time he paid for something.

[Nittersing]

35. I'm very thankful for E Jean Carroll

Very few people actually have the resources... whether it be $$$ or time or connections or platforms or the all important "fire" to proceed.

It's so critical to our future.

[malaise]

39. That's why she's my queen and I am anti all royals

Few with resources take on these monsters let alone win.
She beat the rapist vulgarian.
Let this sink in.

[AverageOldGuy]

36. She needs to BE VERY CAREFUL:

1. Do not stand near any windows above the first floor.

2. Look both ways several times before crossing any street.

3. Do not accept any package unless it has been x-rayed.

4. When in the company of other people, do not accept a drink unless she ordered it and she took it directly from the bartender's hands -- and have the bartender take a sip first.

Am I paranoid or what?

[MissouriDem47]

37. Good For Her

Too bad all of the others that he "screwed" aren't paid back as well.

[Snackshack]

40. Actually she only got...

~5.68181818% of the money DT owes her.

DT still owes $83.3million to her from the other defamation case.

[Wiz Imp]

46. At Ieast it's a start

[ultralite001]

41. One small step for Womankind...

Thank you, E Jean Carroll...

For showing us Krasnov CAN be beaten...

[struggle4progress]

42. 5 million down, 83 million to go

[onenote]

45. See post #44 for the status of the $83 million judgment.

[Wild blueberry]

48. Intensely satisfying news

Thank you, E. Jean Carroll !!!!!!!

[Ocelot II]

51. Excellent!
