While the alleged sexual assault occurred long before Trump became President, the Justice Department argued that it must take over because Trump's comments spurring the defamation lawsuit came while he was in office. Carroll, an advice columnist who for years wrote for Elle Magazine, alleged in a lawsuit filed last fall that Trump sexually assaulted her in a dressing room at luxury Manhattan department store Bergdorf Goodman in the 1990s.
Indeed, when providing the challenged statements, the President was speaking to or responding to inquiries from the press, much as the elected officials in the cases cited above were speaking to the press or making other public statements at the time of their challenged actions," the Justice Department's court filing stated.Judge rules E.
Major BS
Crooked is as crooked does al trump voters are just as crooked as their supreme leader
No JUST FUCKING NO!!
Isn't that ILLEGAL?
Justice for E. Jean Carroll. The DOJ should not be the one to defend criminal Trump!
The date of incident peedate his election and it makes no didderence if trump answers the lawsuit in 1999 2000 2016 , DOJ has no jurisdiction to defendctrump in personal capacity, this is a typical patent [ unreadonable application of federal law ]. 28 usc 2254d
When are you going to investigate Dementia Joe sexual assault claims?
In her dreams
Thus proving the merits of E. Jean's case!
this lady is a lunatic and off her rocker...i think she is senile
She’s a lookin for a book deal. 😀
What?
Fake News CNN!
Now they want tax payers to pay for the rapists defense trumprapist
Is it possible to impeach the Attorney General? Taxpayers money should not be used to defend 45.
Add this Whistle-Blower: D.H.S. Downplayed Threats From Russia and White Supremacists The former head of the Homeland Security Department’s intelligence division has accused three senior leaders of warping the agency around President Trump’s rhetoric.NYT
Trump wants to direct the full force of the US Government to be his personal lawyer. This is straight out of a dictator country’s playbook. The Trump crime family is using the government for his personal use and for election cheating.
So wrong. The DOJ works for the nation although I’m wondering about that for quite some time. Trump uses Barr to further his own interests and not in the national interest.
So DNA wasn't big back then and where has it been stored all these yrs. Smells like a set up to me
FAKE NEWS !!!!!!!!
Trump could get away with murder as the justice department is siding with him. Democracy is gone in the States
Meanwhile in the Nobel world, Donald Trump has been nominated for an actual achievement, not just being popular in Europe, a nifty public speaker and fostering a “new climate in international relations,” whatever that meant.
We know the who is lying the same person who has let 190,000 Americans die from Covid19 because of his lies and failures. Keep up the fight Ms. Carroll continue the push of truth to power.
No way! He can pay his own defense.
Whatever!. So, can the DOJ sue Putin for grabbing Donnie's balls?, coz it's clear he's holding something on him... Just sayin'!
Good. Then they need to go after her for lying and defamation. WalkAway
Oh here we go
Behind every known dictator in history is a fat deranged lap dog walking behind him to clean up his shit.
Not what my tax money us for. Disgusting.
Here we go again. More investigations and accusations. When it’s Joe Biden the media covers for him , won’t press and will kill the story. This is reason to vote for Trump to dismantle this evil collaboration
The president could easily make this go away with a DNA test. Oh wait. Guilty men refuse DNA tests, right?
This is so wrong. How about the rights of the women. The American women!!
So here comes another loser tossing another lie towards the POTUS. Is the DNC funding her lie?
but it was 'sexy'.
With Out a Doubt, We Are In For An Adamant Denial Followed By Insults About Her Appearance And That He Wouldn't Do Her. Not My Type. Never Met Her. She's Working For The Dems. She Wishes! I Have Never Fooled Around On Melania. I Am The Most Trustworthy Man In The World!
Whining lefts with their corrupt news Network alias CNN, keep wailing, Trump is winning lol
Ummm, YEAH!
This wont be good for her!
More fake news
🤣He wouldn’t touch her with Attorney General Barr’s 🍆...keep reaching left!
They are not the President's legal team -- they are to countries... he has personal lawyers .. NOW TRUMP WANTS THE COUNTRY TO PAY FOR HIS PERSONAL CASES... YES TRUMP THE DICTATOR - HITLER HAS ARRIVED
I think the strategy is clear: She (Carroll) is apparently the weakest target among all accusers. He (Trump) wants his henchman (Barr) to destroy this woman and create a 'precedent' that suggests that all accusers are lying. Typical authoritarian.
That can't be legal. Why are my tax dollars being wasted to pay for trump's private legal team?
China Gives Signal of Time To india,india Go in iran For Double Cross,Big Legions of All Arab Destroy China &Parachute Bombs Can Stop AntiCrafts of China Domain Planes+China Stability in Arab UnMatch Oil,SAARC+Bangal+Behar+Punjab+Rajhistan Unity Destroyed By Shia Bhutto Side,
Nice
In my estimation I don’t think using tax payers money in this way should be legal. The accusation took place when he was a private citizen.
WTF! My tax money used to protect Trump for something that didn’t happen during his presidency. The DOJ leadership is loosing respectability and trust with the American people.
Funny how she waits until 2 months before the election to say anything.
I am so sick of seeing this guy on here, abt time he was made to answer to all the allegations
Too ugly to be assaulted by Trump. Case dismissed.
'...While the [alleged sexual assault occurred] long before Trump became President...' or While the [alleged sexual assault was alleged to have occurred] long before Trump became President
Correction: Bill Barr wants to take over...
Hey hater, did you see this
Using taxpayer funded government employees as his personal lawyers. TrumpCorruption
Illegal
On the taxpayer dime fora personal matter
Don’t believe all women.
Trump has been using other people’s money for acts like this forever, he used campaign funds to pay defense attorneys fees for his crimes and now he needs that money for his campaign he will use the DOJ as his personal attorney. Wrong on every level!!
So he can put his own money into election,but cant afford to take on the case of a woman he raped.
She’s insane liar. No one believes her. Yet Democrats like hercand dismiss The credible and backed up and reported at the time rape by Joe Biden of that other lady
Mueller & cohorts made $48m for a dems hoax
As usual, watch Fox News for real story.
meanwhile, Gropin' Joe Biden's memory has been failing him for a very long time, apparently.
Here we go with a saved dress from the 1990’s. This smells of election interference 100%. Good story but not original. Guessing she knew back then he was going to run for President. DOJ should defend our President from these allegations that are reserved for President elections.
THATS. NOT. THE. JOB. OF. THE. DOJ
They should go one better and take over his Twitter.
Why, oh why is this predator not behind bars already! America would be late for its own funeral - sooooooooo slow to act on anything. From a country that can do such great things too. Mystifying and, dare I say it,... sad!
Shameful
And all pretence of impartiality is out of the window.
DOJPH why are you betraying constituents and the country. You have no business defending a predator, violator, con, liar, misogynist, racist terrorist and caca for President realDonaldTrump realDonaldTrump FLOTUS she knows!
So, let me see if I understood correctly. AG William Barr intends to use the DOJ and its public funding to defend Trump from a private lawsuit? Goooossshhhh, I do hope this gang loses the Election.
If trump innocent why go out his way to run from this? Clearly guilty
The DOJ is also going to sue the 30+ women that have accuses Trump of sexual assault AND prosecute those responsible for doctoring the Hollywood Access tape.
Banana republic
Success Story
Put a sock in it...Loretta Lynch's DOJ went to bat for Hillary...remember the tarmac meeting?
Corruption at its finest
All of una just the waste una time on trying to pull him down. E no go work! Mr Trump go still win oh!!
Didn't the Supreme Court rule against Clinton in the Paula Jones case Trump just buying time on the tax payers dime .
Okay so the Atlantic story is played out so let’s bring back the Mia Farrow Baby Jane lady.
Haha this ugly thing again
Democrats are reaching low
Can they do that? They are not his personal attorney. She's suing based on an incidence before he was POTUS. Revictimizing the accuser (do not me stupid responses or MAGA bs)
Trump’s issue is a personal one nothing to do with his status now...this was in the public sector...he is responsible for all fees. Why would taxpayers be responsible for his trouser trout!
old sex allegations-issue is dead election-issue. we the ppl had decided. pls move on for the good of our country.
Illegal!!
BARRS A RAPIST TOO. BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER.
Probably more like been ordered to. Why the fuck does he get to use my tax money to defend himself? If he wants to do that, he should get a public defender like everyone else.
ImpeachBarr
How great is this?! CNN head Zucker offered Trump debate advice, floated 'weekly show,' leaked 2016 Cohen call reveals
It would be a disgrace for American citizens to have to pay for the criminals defense, but that is what he has done his whole life have other people pay for his bills. I hope Kamilla will investigate an have whoever did this pay for it. It is shameful and disgusting.
Harris did the same and Biden would have too But you know double standards and all👇🏼
Meanwhile Trump plays golf...”it is what it is...I’m not responsible.“
CNN: Didn’t read the story but it doesn’t matter because you’re going down.
America has sure joined the league of 3rd world countries where justice gets trampled upon by government.
Here we go with the sexual assault lies again. Democrats are desperate.
Not on my dime!
Wants & Legally can are two different defined terms. Tread carefully TheJusticeDept Leaks thats set to run will cause many more dominos to fall inside a very CORRUPT DoJ both gop/dnc Thats a personal matter that pos realDonaldTrump pays from his cash poor realestate scams
.. EVIL..
😑
She was a cute young lady!
.. IT'S OBVIOUS NOW....IT'S IN YOUR FACE
This does not sound legal.
Oh oh....are we now back to “we must believe all women”? idiots
well that is the final move, isn't it. The DOJ being his personal lawyer in a personal lawsuit.
Lock them up! Lock them up! Fascist dictatorship in action.
If ya want to bring this crazy lady up then ya gonna bring back the lady that claimed Biden sexually assaulted her so don’t think this is a smart move
Stop them!!!!!
How do we prosecute a creepy old man who smells little girls hair ..... is there anything creepier than this democratic puppet?
Here we go .... let the games begin
Another Botox experiment gone awry?
In a roundabout way it contributes to trumps campaign fund
He should be on his own. His own dime. The government/tax payers should not pay to defend his crimes prior to taking office
No it was before he was president and therefore no special treatment
MaryLTrump should give a DNA sample to Carroll to see how close it matches to stain.
Let’s not forget Tara Reade!
There is sooooo many reasons That he should be locked up What is history going to write?
He’s married to Melanie and would try to take that? Please......
Come on Trump,You can get better bump than her.Ask her how she feels about Trump calling the military 'loser's'.
you are in trouble..
Just as SOON as they demanded DNA too
Why? How?
finally the doj doing their jobs how does all this come out at election time
WOW --- must be running out of Fake News ideas at Crap News Network....
BethFullerton2 Taxpayers should not be funding Trump's defense for actions outside the realm of his office.
JoanPennnative CNN “wants”
Look at his wifes. Look at her. Nfw
Trump is broke. the campaign is broke. no lawyer works for free except the DOJ. defund the DOJ.
Let me think about that for a minute... NOT NO BUT HELL NO!
Oh, hell no! He needs to pay for his own legal counsel with his filthy self.
CNN continues to peddle wacko fake newsers
The fix is in. And, the American tax payer is funding it.
What? Explain please
All the more reason to vote this fucker out. Not that we need any more reasons. But Barr has got to get out of there. So vile.
Is this even legal? This can’t be ETHICAL or MORAL. This madness must STOP! DumpTrump2020
What a coincidence she surfaces right at the election
The DOJ? Or just Jabbarr the Hutt?
realDonaldTrump if you’re innocent, turn over your DNA sample.
Oh hell no!!
WHY? They would have a huge conflict of interest with the American People
She’s a looney tune.....cue the music, Buggs
An innocent man doesn't do this. Period
Liberals are panicking and trying to make this news now. I believe Tara, Joe raped her.
She looks like someone Creapy Joe would go for.
It's just a tactic to run out the clock on this case until after the election.
Fk off , the DOJ r not his personal lawyers even though he thinks they r. Just as his staff work for the people not Trump? What a fkn nightmare that disgusting excuse for a human being is. Get his has out of office!
Can they really do it?
Here is Week 2 Story. we have kicked MeToo to the curb with Tara Reid and Blakes Victim, but Okay Bring it. Joe just took over a 15 yr olds TOkTok account. Bring It, you can't make this shit up.
Wait. What?! 😳
How is this legal?!! WTF! Taxpayers should not be paying for his corrupt AG Barr defense.
That's not what my tax dollars are for.
Now take over Biden’s accuser then we’ll know you’re not fake news!
I hope there is DNA
Can you imagine any other President’s Justice Department trying to do something like this. It just goes to show you how Trump’s swamp is the most corrupt ever!
