Trump ordered to hand over E. Jean Carroll's $5M after losing Supreme Court appeal: report

A federal judge has ordered President Donald Trump to release the more than 5 million payment he owes to E. Jean Carroll, a former magazine columnist who sued Trump for sexually abusing and defaming her, according to a new report. CNN reported on Wednesday that Judge Lewis Kaplan told Trump to release the money, along with accrued interest, after the Supreme Court refused to hear Trump's appeal in the case. The payment is part of the civil verdict that found Trump sexually abused Carroll in a department store in 1996, and then defamed her when he became president. Carroll has also secured an 83 million judgment from a jury in her defamation case against Trump. The president has until the end of July to appeal that ruling to the Supreme Court, according to the report. A spokesperson for the Trump administration told CNN in a statement, The American People stand with President Trump as they demand an immediate end to all of the Witch Hunts, including the Democrat-funded travesty of the Carroll Hoaxes. President Trump will keep winning against Liberal Lawfare, as he continues to focus on his mission to Make America Great Again.
