  2. @EU_EESC And for the small #injustices that don't make it in the press, we #speak up for ourselves.

    John Cabot University: I allege in my #lawsuit against you that you benefit from the #research work done by #adjunct lecturers employed on #teaching-only contracts (I was one
    such adjunct) and that you repeatedly ignored my requests for research to be
    contractually recognised and compensated. You counter-sue me for alleged #defamation in my online #advocacy:

  4. The Delhi High Court has ruled that not all content about public figures can be removed. This is different from previous cases where removal was easier.

  5. "It's not easy to #speak out". Let's all do it anyway.

    We should all stand against the 'small' #injustices in our lives, as we would have the #world rise against the great ones.

    John Cabot University in #Rome: I sued you for unpaid #research work and you counter-sued me for #defamation.

  6. I should think so; & yet he just had to tie up the courts.

    Judge dismisses Trump’s $10B #defamation lawsuit against #WSJ, #RupertMurdoch over reporting on ties to #Epstein

    US Dist Judge Darrin P. Gayles in Florida wrote in the order that #Trump had failed to make the argument that the article was published with the intent to be malicious, but gave him a chance to file an amended complaint.

  9. The disclosure came as #Trump vowed in a social media post Monday to eliminate #MailinBallots & #VotingMachines such as those supplied by #Dominion & other companies. It was unclear how Trump could [legally] achieve that.

  10. David Seide, senior counsel for the #GovernmentAccountabilityProject, which is representing plaintiffs in litigation against the #Trump admin, called the announcement “shocking & illegal” & said it will be challenged in court.

    Last year, #OAN settled a #defamation lawsuit w/ #Smartmatic, the #voting tech company, over its coverage of the #2020election & promotion of the #BigLie.

  11. Cristina Balan, a former Tesla engineer fired after raising brake safety concerns, has won a key legal battle and is preparing to face Elon Musk in open court. Now also suing for defamation, Balan is determined to clear her name—while courageously battling breast cancer.

  12. @mattblaze Thank you for that COMMENT! We need to keep the focus of the real victims. Here is a graphic I made of Rudy's active avoidance & legal f*ckery around the assets he has NOT turned over.
    Also, here's my article about why we have to keep fighting them outside the court when we WIN in court.

  13. How might the bond company be linked to Russia? To Trump?

    In a pattern reminiscent of the Trump family, there is a father-son thing happening. However, neither Greenberg supported Trump directly in 2016 or 2020.

    Evan Greenberg (Evan), 68/69, is the president and CEO of Chubb Ltd (incorporated in Zürich, Switzerland).

    Federal Insurance Company (FIC), the company behind Trump’s surety bond, is a Chubb subsidiary.
    Evan orchestrated the ACE Insurance absorption of Chubb Insurance in 2016.

    Details below.

    Evan donated to the Hillary Clinton campaign in the 2016 election cycle, not Trump.
    However, in 2020, he donated almost exclusively to Republicans, but not Trump.

    Trump appointed Evan to the Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations in late 2018.

    Although Chubb was one of the first major insurance conglomerates to “adopt limited” restrictions on insuring fossil fuel underwriting, it is one of the largest insurers of oil and gas projects.

    In 2020, Reuters reported that Chubb was insuring tar sands projects in Canada. In 2021, it withdrew from the Russian Nord Stream 2 pipeline due to U.S. government sanctions.

    Evan’s father is #Maurice#Hank#Greenberg (Maurice), 98, the former “combative” chairman and CEO of American International Group ( #AIG ), which was once a subsidiary of Starr Insurance Companies.

    Starr was founded in 1919 in Shanghai, China, by an American. Maurice has been chairman and chief executive officer of Starr since 1968. (Envision nested Russian dolls.)

    Maurice is notorious for extensive #fraud that happened at AIG under his direction.

    He paid $24,000,000 to the SEC (2009) and the state of New York (2017) for fraud that took place before 2005, the year he turned 80 and was kicked out of the CEO penthouse.

    Maurice has direct ties to Russian president Vladamir #Putin.

    In 2003, Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, welcomed Maurice to Moscow. The purpose of the visit? To develop mortgage loans in Russia.

    In 2007, Maurice created a subsidiary, Starr Investments Russia, “to invest hundreds of millions in Russian real estate,” specifically “prime office space, residential housing and hotels.”

    Putin was the president of Russia.
    In the 2016 election cycle, Maurice donated $20,000 to Republican political action committees. According to the Washington Post, he gave more than $15,000,000 to #dark #money SuperPACs.

    He supported Jeb Bush. In the 2020 cycle, he supported no presidential candidate directly.

    There is no direct link between the surety bond company and Putin. There are links between projects, players, corporations.

    If FIC asked for 2%, Trump had to pony up only (only!) $18,400,000.

    Rather than his winning an appeal, I put money on Carroll winning another defamation suit.

    That’s the national and domestic #security #issue.

  14. #RobertaKaplan and #ShawnCrowley have demonstrated the highest ideals of the American #legal system. With tremendous skill and tenacity they used the law to demand and get civil justice for their client. Today, I am proud to be a scholar and teacher of American law, and specifically of #tort law (#defamation, the gravamen of #EJeanCarroll suit is a tort). May my torts students all do as much for justice as Kaplan and Crowley have. #LawFedi #LawTeaching

  15. @crooksandliars 🤔 Wasn't it Ingraham, who begged for Trump to order his insurrectionary hordes to stop assaulting & taintingthe United States Capitol on Jan 6, 2021?

    Did Laura come to the conclusion she made a mistake then?

    Do Fox & she approve insurrection & conspiracy against the U.S.?

    [All rhetorical questions.]

    Reverend Martin Luther King Jr: "You can not legislate morality."

    "Party of Trump" 2023: "Hold my (Not Bud Light) beer." 🤦‍♂️

    The irony of a Party now obsessed with legislating #morality, has rallied around an #amoral, thrice married, serial adulterer #billionaire #conman who paid hush money to a porn star, and now convicted of #defamation of someone who credibly accused him of #rape.

    #GOMP: Grand Old Morality Police

  17. @GottaLaff Agreed.

    What I want to see is a defamation lawsuit from #Vanderbilt University Medical Center (and their board of directors) where #Tucker is named as an individual. If he makes the same defamatory comments on Twitter, as he did on Fox, this time he will not be protected by the Fox News lawyers. The Fox lawyers loss in the #Dominion #defamation can strengthen a case for #VUMC

  18. Telling the truth is really hard for #Murdoch and #Fox - Murdoch Acknowledges Fox News Hosts Endorsed Election Fraud Falsehoods Rupert Murdoch, the conservative media mogul, made the remarks under oath in a $1.6 billion #defamation lawsuit against Fox by Dominion Voting Systems. nytimes.com/2023/02/27/busines #Election2022 #lies #FoxNews #Murdoch
    #DominionVotingSystems The irony is that Dominion is far afield from the role of a "good" company - aka #Bush remember - #LegalResearch #courts #litigation

  19. How does one go about "#condemning"?

    Dunno, but maybe its worth trying to condemn the last seven decades of #warCrimes on other cultures around the world for #commodities, #patents, and a #fiatCurrency?

    What about the #whistleblowers and other #politicalPrisoners like #DanielHale, StevenDonziger and #Assange? Should we condemn the structures that drag them through #defamation, lawFare and other #torture?

    Any priests? We'd value your understanding of 'condemning'.
