“You are not here to pay Ms. Carroll for people who wrote mean tweets to her,” Habba says. They have to prove a direct link between the two statements he made in 2019 & the harm she suffered, Habba tells the jury.

The outline is all done, and we got to start the shading last night. I can’t do any more of these marathon sessions, so we’re going to shade in the rest in 2-3 hour sessions.

Following Hamas, a Houthi delegation from Yemen was received with honor in Moscow yesterday.

Russia has become a “gathering point” for the most disgusting and wild international rabble, bandits, scum.
Putin has brought the country down to nowhere.

NEW: Trump joins Mike Roman's motion to disqualify Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade based on allegations that they are involved in an "improper" romantic relationship.

Kaplan then asked, “and you say that because you personally made him aware of those confines?”

Trump then loudly interjected, "I never met this woman."

Trump had infrastructure week but "on my watch America is having an infrastructure decade," President Biden says in a speech in Superior, Wisconsin.

#JudgeKaplan asked for a #proffer of #Trump's #testimony, #AlinaHabba responded: "He's going to say he stands by his deposition. He's going to say that he stands by those statements there."

Asked if Trump would go beyond that, #Habba said: "I'm not testifying for my client, your honor."

#EJeanCarroll atty Roberta Kaplan said Trump had an opportunity to participate in the first trial, but he didn't appear.

Trump is the ME FIRST candidate.
