- Court documents show that the Supreme Court on Monday denied Trump’s request to rehear a 2023 civil case in which he was found liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll.
- In the lawsuit filed under the New York Adult Survivors Act in 2022, a jury awarded Carroll about $5 million in damages, while the Supreme Court rejected Trump’s review petition in June and his rehearing request on Monday.
- Carroll alleged in 2019 that Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in New York City in the 1990s, leading to two separate trials.
- In a separate defamation case, a federal jury ordered Trump in 2024 to pay $83.3 million over remarks made while he was in office, and his team is currently seeking Supreme Court review based on presidential immunity.
No one is above the law, not even a former President of the United States.— Carroll’s attorney, Roberta Kaplan, said at the time.

- Hillary Clinton sharply criticized Joe Biden’s decision to run again in 2024 as a serious mistake for himself, his legacy, and the nation.
- She argued that had Biden announced in 2023 he would not seek reelection, another Democrat might have defeated Donald Trump.
- Biden’s refusal to step aside created a difficult situation within the Democratic Party, according to Clinton.
- After Biden withdrew in July 2024, Vice President Kamala Harris took his place but ultimately lost to Trump, who won all swing states.

- The Kennedy Center was established in 1971 as a national cultural institution named after John F. Kennedy.
- The decision to append Donald Trump’s name was made by a board dominated by his loyalists during a meeting at Steve Wynn’s residence.
- Several Kennedy family members and politicians condemned the move as disrespectful and incomprehensible.
- The renaming illustrates Trump’s disregard for artistic freedom and his intolerance of independent cultural expression.
If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.— John F. Kennedy on the importance of artistic freedom.
