Fifteen Minutes of Feminism—The Trump Indictments: Unpacking the E. Jean Carroll Litigation
This week, we’re launching a special new series following the litigation and criminal charges that have been levied at the former president Donald Trump: The Trump Indictments. Last week, a New York jury ruled that columnist E. Jean Carroll was sexually assaulted and defamed by the former president, and awarded her five million dollars in damages.
This case is also far from the only litigation faced by the former president—Trump is also the subject of several ongoing investigations, including one case dealing with his 2016 hush-money scheme for which he was indicted last month, a federal investigation into his role in the January 6 insurrection, and more. This week, we dive into the Carroll verdict, and its implications for the larger case against former president Trump.
Joining us to kick off our series on The Trump Indictments is a very special guest:
Moira Donegan. Moira Donegan is a feminist writer and current opinion columnist with the Guardian U.S.
