District Judge Lewis Kaplan has said it multiple times: Donald Trump raped E. Jean Carroll in 1996. Kaplan wrote it in May 2023, when he presided over one of the trials against Trump. And he reminded jurors of the rape this week, during the latest proceedings in the multi-layered, winding rape and defamation cases brought against Trump by Carroll.

          No, everyone deserves bodily autonomy and to be free from harm. Even people who want to do away with that. That’s how the world becomes a safe place for everyone and we end fear.

            will they pay back those whose lives were destroyed by their Rapist in Chief… Trump supporting assholes are quick to announce their rights, but don’t know any of their responsibilities…

              No it’s not. I don’t have the mental capacity to memorize the crimes of every citizen. I don’t have the give-a-damn to care what goes on in the lives of these puppets who exist to trick everyone into thinking their votes matter. I don’t need to give a fuck.

                when you vote for someone, you take responsibility for their actions… that’s what it means… you’re saying, “this person acts in my name”… you fuckers will own up to it… every one of his crimes is on your ignorant, cowardly heads forever…

      Repeatedly advocating for the rape of Trump supporters goes well beyond our rule on advocating violence. Removing the content, 7 day ban.

          That’s to do with the federated data not being properly handled by either your instance, or your client. Could also be a hiccup in the connection.

          One unfortunate side effect of the current federation is that hiccups like this happen.
