Federal appeals court upholds $83M Trump judgment in E. Jean Carroll defamation case

A federal appeals court has refused to rehear President Donald Trump's request to appeal a $83 million judgment in his defamation case brought by writer E. Jean Carroll. The decision was made on Wednesday and marks a significant setback for Trump's efforts to overturn the ruling. The judgment was handed down earlier this year after a jury found Trump liable for defaming Carroll in an interview where he denied having sex with her.
