Supreme Court won’t save Trump from paying E. Jean Carroll $5M - POLITICO

Roberta Kaplan, a lawyer for Carroll, said: “Today’s Supreme Court decision affirms once and for all the jury’s unanimous verdict that President Donald J. Trump sexually assaulted and defamed E. Jean Carroll. His multiple efforts to appeal that verdict have all failed and today’s ruling ends his quest to avoid accountability for his actions.”…

Weekly Roundup: Talarico and the Pope vs. MAGA Christianity (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)

This week on Straight White American Jesus, Brad Onishi and Dan Miller dig into what may become a defining political and theological showdown in American life: the Texas Senate race between Ken Paxton and James Talarico. Framing it as more than a political contest, they explore it as a clash between two competing visions of Christianity—one rooted in power, order, and domination, and another grounded in compassion, dignity, and neighbor-love. Along the way, they unpack the deeply personal and often misogynistic attacks leveled at Talarico, revealing how gender, masculinity, and religious identity are being weaponized in real time.

The conversation then turns to E. Jean Carroll and the latest developments involving the United States Department of Justice, situating the case within a broader pattern of retribution politics under Donald Trump. Brad and Dan argue that Carroll’s treatment reflects not just political vengeance but a deeper discomfort with women who challenge systems of male dominance—and win. The thread connecting it all: a vision of power that equates dominance with righteousness.

Finally, they break down the first encyclical from Pope Leo XIV, highlighting its critique of technological utopianism, AI-driven efficiency, and the dehumanizing tendencies of Silicon Valley. Drawing on biblical imagery like Babel and Nehemiah, as well as unexpected references to J.R.R. Tolkien, the document offers a counter-vision: human dignity over efficiency, community over homogenization, and faith expressed through small, faithful acts rather than grand displays of power. The episode closes by asking a central question: what does it actually mean to be a Christian in America today—and who gets to decide?

Trump Keeps Losing (Find Out podcast)

The Find Out crew is back for Episode 40, and there's no shortage of chaos to unpack. Trump in the headlines (again): From the Supreme Court greenlighting racial profiling in LA to the E. Jean Carroll judgment holding firm, we break down the highs and lows of Trump's latest legal and political drama. The grift never ends: Trump's long history of stiffing contractors and dodging payments gets a fresh look as he continues to grift billions while refusing accountability. Economic storm clouds: With tariffs fueling stagflation, farmers begging for relief, and a jobs report in free fall, we dive into how Trump's policies are hammering working people while Wall Street insiders cash in. Media capture: From CBS courting Bari Weiss to the mainstream press normalizing lies, we call out how right-wing narratives keep bending the media landscape. International recklessness: Trump and JD Vance's saber-rattling in Venezuela exposes the dangers of a MAGA foreign policy that abandons rule of law. RFK Jr. unhinged: The Senate hearing circus showed just how deep the anti-vax conspiracy rabbit hole goes. It's a mix of outrage, dark humor, and sharp analysis as Tim, Luke, Zak, and Rich cut through the noise and ask the big question: how do we fight back against a system rigged for liars, grifters, and authoritarians?

Why a Fox News pundit may not have heard bad news about Trump - The Washington Post

Biden's classified documents are not the only subject area where Fox News overperforms, certainly. You will recall that MSNBC has been particularly enthusiastic about the Carroll case, mentioning the writer in more than 4,800 segments since early 2021. 

Well, Fox News mentioned President Biden's son Hunter in more than 4,200 segments in one month. Since January 2021, the channel has mentioned Hunter Biden in more than 38,000 segments…

E. Jean Carroll lawsuit: Judge rejects Justice Dept. bid to defend Trump in defamation case - The Washington Post

A federal judge Tuesday rejected the Justice Department’s bid to make the U.S. government the defendant in a defamation lawsuit brought by a woman who says President Trump raped her decades ago, paving the way for the case to again proceed. In a 59-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan wrote that Trump did not qualify as a government “employee” under federal law, nor was he acting “within the scope of his employment” when he denied during interviews in 2019 that he had raped journalist E. Jean Carroll in a Manhattan department store during the 1990s.
