Then you are an anarchist if you have no confidence in the rule of law and court system.

But you are not a lone since it has all now been contaminated since Citizens United.
You missed the sarcasm font.

Appeals court says DOJ cannot represent Trump in appeal of E. Jean Carroll case

While that would have been ghastly, it's bad enough that my taxes paid for the effort to find out whether my taxes would pay for his appeal.

DOJ lawyers had argued that since some of Trump's alleged conduct fell within the scope of his role as president, the Justice Department should be able to defend the president in court.

The NY Courts have had it with Trump.

NY Taxpayers are tired of dealing with his tax fraud and lawsuits.

He will lose.
I hope so. The old guy needs to learn that he can’t do anything he wants and get away with it.

I clicked the link thinking (or rather hoping) that it would take me to The Onion perhaps.

Appeals court rejects Trump's bid to challenge $5 million E. Jean Carroll judgment [This is separate from the $83 million judgment.]

Trump had sought a hearing before the full U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit after a three-judge panel declined to overturn the judgment.
A federal appeals court in New York on Thursday officially affirmed the jury verdict that found President Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming the writer E. Jean Carroll, starting the clock for Trump to ask the Supreme Court to overturn the decision and its order that he pay her $5 million in damages.

The 2nd Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals issued the mandate affirming the verdict weeks after that same court rejected a bid by Trump to have the full judicial lineup in the circuit rehear his appeal of the 2023 Manhattan federal court jury verdict. [the above]

I didn't see that in any Australian outlet. Just to note that we have reached a point when 'Court finds yet again that US President sexually assaulted woman' isn't deemed newsworthy.
