E. Jean Carroll's Lawyers Demand Trump Pay $83M Verdict Amidst Seizure Concerns

Lawyers for E. Jean Carroll are demanding that former President Donald Trump pay the $83.3 million jury verdict against him for defaming her, as he appeals the case. Trump's attempt to avoid paying the verdict while appealing was criticized by Carroll's lawyers, who highlighted his financial challenges and legal troubles. They argue that Trump should be forced to put up the money or obtain a bond, and provide a full accounting of his funds, given his history of dishonesty about his finances. Trump's lawyers have not yet responded to the motion filed Thursday.

"Decisive Moments for GOP Hopefuls as Iowa Caucuses Approach"

In the lead-up to the Iowa caucuses, GOP candidates are sharpening their final pitches. Ron DeSantis criticizes Trump's lack of action on university orthodoxies and questions his commitment to conservative values, positioning himself as the candidate who can deliver where Trump did not. Nikki Haley emphasizes the chaos surrounding Trump and presents herself as a more stable alternative, polling better against Biden. Vivek Ramaswamy praises Trump's America First movement but suggests a younger candidate can advance it further. Meanwhile, Trump focuses on fighting legal battles, including the defamation and sexual abuse lawsuit by E. Jean Carroll. DeSantis and Haley aim to shift focus from Trump's personal issues to their policy agendas, but Trump's legal troubles and the narrative of him being a victim of political attacks complicate their efforts to distance themselves.
