Segment Two brings us to ABC settling the defamation suit filed by Donald Trump over anchor George Stephanopoulos calling Trump a "rapist" after the E. Jean Carroll trial. Why are all of these corporations bending the knee to Donald Trump? This week's Ford Fact Check focuses on some on the left who are trying to use Executive Order 13848 to come up with some sort of cockamamie reason why Joe Biden should stay in office. It's crazy.

Today's show opens with a comment from Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) saying he is okay with Pete Hegseth. What I take from this is more validation that New Media is having a greater and faster impact than ever before. They were not ready to have the smear campaigns debunked so quickly. Attorney Alina Habba was on the PBD podcast and discussed the E Jean Carroll case. She reminded the audience about the case she was not allowed to make or present in the lawfare waged against Donald Trump. She also said that Carroll would not be getting any payout and in fact would be suing to have Carroll pay all legal fees. I bring this up in response to ABC News settling the defamation suit Trump brought on them after they said he had been charged with and committed rape. While the voices in media are decrying the death of journalism over this case, we have already known they were dead. They cannot accept their downfall has been at their own hands. Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) is definitely wanting a pardon. He seems really worried that he will need one to stay out of trouble with the incoming Trump administration. DHS Secretary Alejandro “The Walking Male Member with Eyebrows” Mayorkas, made the rounds regarding the ongoing drone story. What it comes down to is if you can believe anything this government says? However, when he says they need more power and more authority, I cannot help wonder if they are manufacturing the very crisis they want to leverage to that end. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) is disgusted at all of the pork stuffed into the latest National Defense Authorization Act. He voted against it, but politicians love spending money we don't have. President Biden wants us to believe his “campaign” was scandal-free, while President-elect Trump just landed a $100M investment from Japan into the United States. Trump also declared all of the countries would be taking back their people or face disastrous financial ruin. In the waning days of the Harris-Biden regime, we get one more Deep Thoughts segment with VP Kamala Harris. She is really the queen of word salad. The WNBA has decided to do the opposite of the PGA when it comes to using a rising star to their advantage. They want Caitlin Clark to still bend the knee and they do not give her any credit to larger ticket sales. Finally, Donald Trump wants to get rid of Daylight Savings Time. Hopefully he means the switching of the time. Personally, I like more daylight at the end of the day and hope he will consider pushing the clock ahead and leaving it there.

This Day in Legal History: Boston Tea PartyOn this day in 1773, a turning point in American colonial history unfolded in Boston Harbor: the Boston Tea Party. A group of American colonists, members of the secretive resistance group known as the Sons of Liberty, disguised themselves as Mohawk Native Americans and boarded three ships of the British East India Company. Under the cover of night, they dumped 342 chests of tea into the icy waters of the harbor. This protest was a defiant response to what the colonists viewed as oppressive British taxation policies, most notably the Tea Act.It is worth noting here that in one of the nation's most definitive acts of rebellion, the participants deliberately disguised themselves as Native Americans, a minority group already marginalized and subjected to colonial violence. This choice not only symbolized a rejection of British rule but also served as a strategic scapegoating mechanism—if the protest failed or was met with severe repercussions, blame could potentially be shifted onto an already vulnerable population. This act underscores a troubling dynamic: even in a moment of defiance against tyranny, the colonists perpetuated patterns of exploitation and misrepresentation, using Native identity as a convenient shield for their own rebellious actions.The Tea Act of 1773 had been designed to prop up the struggling East India Company by allowing it to sell tea directly to the colonies, bypassing colonial merchants. While the tea itself was cheaper, the act maintained a tax on tea under the Townshend Acts, reaffirming Britain's right to tax the colonies without their consent—a principle the colonists vehemently opposed as "taxation without representation."The Boston Tea Party galvanized both sides of the Atlantic. In Britain, Parliament responded with a series of punitive measures known as the Coercive Acts, or as the colonists called them, the Intolerable Acts. These acts included:* The Boston Port Act, which closed Boston Harbor to all shipping until restitution was made for the destroyed tea.* Measures strengthening British authority in Massachusetts, effectively curtailing self-governance.* The Quartering Act, forcing colonists to house British soldiers.For the colonists, the Boston Tea Party symbolized both resistance and unity. While not all supported the destruction of property, the event rallied support for the growing revolutionary movement. In time, this protest—and the severe response it provoked—would become a turning point, pushing the colonies closer to open rebellion and eventually independence.The Boston Tea Party remains a symbol of resistance to tyranny and an enduring moment in the history of legal and political dissent. It underscored the central conflict between the colonies and Britain: the issue of representation and the rights of subjects under the law, a conflict that would culminate in the American Revolution just two years later.Fourth Circuit Judge James Wynn Jr. has reversed his decision to take senior status, effectively rescinding his semi-retirement and denying President-elect Donald Trump the chance to fill his seat. Wynn, an Obama appointee, initially announced his intention to step down contingent upon the confirmation of his successor, Ryan Park, whose nomination was later withdrawn due to a lack of Senate support under a bipartisan agreement. Wynn's move follows similar reversals by two district court judges and has sparked criticism from Republican lawmakers, who allege the judges are politicizing the judicial retirement process to maintain Democratic-appointed seats. Ethical concerns have also been raised, with conservative groups filing misconduct complaints, claiming that reversing retirement decisions based on election outcomes could violate judicial ethics codes. Legally, there is no explicit prohibition against withdrawing retirement plans, but such actions are rare and can draw scrutiny if perceived as undermining the impartiality and integrity of the judiciary.Of course, one might rightly wonder why conservatives would mind not having an opportunity to fill a vacant seat if they intended to fill it with an impartial appointee. Judge Wynn Reverses Retirement Plans, Denies Trump Vacancy (2)ABC News has agreed to pay $15 million to former President Donald Trump's presidential library to settle a lawsuit over statements made by anchor George Stephanopoulos during a March interview with Rep. Nancy Mace. The lawsuit, filed in March in Florida, alleged that Stephanopoulos falsely stated Trump was found liable for rape in the civil case brought by E. Jean Carroll, with malice and disregard for the truth. As part of the settlement, ABC News will also publish a clarification by Sunday retracting the statements made during the interview. Both parties have agreed to dismiss the case, according to court filings.For clarity, Donald Trump was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation in a civil lawsuit brought by writer E. Jean Carroll. In May 2023, a jury in New York determined that Trump sexually abused Carroll during an encounter in a department store dressing room in the mid-1990s and later defamed her by publicly calling her allegations a "hoax" and making disparaging remarks about her character.The jury did not find Trump liable for rape, as defined under New York law, but awarded Carroll $5 million in damages—$2 million for the sexual abuse claim and $3 million for defamation. This distinction is important because the claim of rape under the law involves specific criteria that the jury did not believe were met, even though they concluded that Trump had engaged in other non-consensual sexual conduct.Put simply, if you were to state “Donald Trump was found liable for rape and is a rapist,” that would be incorrect – what you would want to make clear is that he was found civilly liable for sexual abuse. ABC to pay $15 million to Trump library to settle lawsuit, court documents show | ReutersSenator Ron Wyden's Secure American Communications Act seeks to mandate the FCC to establish binding cybersecurity regulations for U.S. telecommunications providers, addressing vulnerabilities exposed by the Salt Typhoon hack, a Chinese state-sponsored cyberattack targeting U.S. communications networks. This attack reportedly compromised call records, live conversations, and personal communications of high-ranking officials, including President-elect Donald Trump.The proposed bill requires telecom carriers to implement robust security measures, conduct annual vulnerability testing, and undergo independent audits, with results and compliance certifications submitted to the FCC. The legislation also seeks to address the FCC's longstanding failure to enforce a 1994 federal law mandating telecom providers secure systems from unauthorized interceptions.Wyden's initiative is part of a broader strategy to bolster communications security, including proposed legislation for encrypted communications software and restricting the export of Americans' data to adversarial nations. The draft emphasizes the need to protect Americans' privacy, reduce reliance on insecure proprietary software, and counter advanced persistent threats like those seen in the Salt Typhoon breach. Consumer and privacy advocacy groups have endorsed the bill, calling it a critical step toward securing U.S. telecommunications infrastructure against foreign espionage.Wyden Releases Draft Legislation to Secure U.S. Phone Networks Following Salt Typhoon Hack This is a public episode.

Freight visibility platform, FourKites, Inc., did not see this one coming. A couple months ago, I covered the most important corporate defamation case in the US: project44 v FourKites, Inc. Back in March, we had a ruling. In the end, the Illinois Supreme Court ruled that, “… a corporation has a distinct reputation from that of its management- level employees and an interest in protecting that reputation among its employees and the public at large.” Today we have a settlement.TLDR: project44 won. As an Illinois attorney, this was the likely outcome. project44 sued for defamation per se, but the case was dismissed at the trial court level, & project44 appealed. The appellate court reversed & FourKites, Inc. appealed. On appeal, the Illinois Supreme Court upheld the appellate court ruling & remanded to the trial court. What this means is that FourKites, Inc. will now be required to answer the complaint & assert its affirmative defenses. After that comes discovery, which includes requests for records & answers to interrogatories followed by depositions. Get your popcorn, this is just the beginning. In Illinois, certain statements are considered defamatory per se. These include statements that impute a person has committed a crime, is unable to perform or lacks integrity in performing her or his employment duties, or lacks ability or otherwise prejudices that person in her or his profession. If a defamatory statement is actionable per se, the plaintiff is not required to plead or prove actual damages to recover. This was a question of first impression in Illinois. That question is whether there is publication when defamatory communication is sent to corporate employees from a person outside the corporation? Everything rested on “publication” of the alleged defamatory statements. FourKites, Inc. argued the corporate employees were one and the same as the corporation. The project44 & Illinois Supreme Court disagreed. To answer this question, the Illinois Supreme Court looked to similar legal doctrines in Illinois, specifically the “intracorporate publication” rule. Under the intracorporate publication rule, interoffice reports or communications that are circulated among employees within a corporation have been ‘published' to ‘third parties' for defamation purposes. The rule generally applies when an employee is terminated based on defamatory comments made by management or coworkers within a corporation and subsequently file a defamation action against the corporation. In the end, "a corporation has a distinct reputation from that of its management." Remember though, dear readers, if this does go to litigation, truth is always a defense. Will it settle? Will it go to trial? Time will tell. [spoiler, they settled].This program is brought to you by DAT Freight & Analytics. Since 1978, DAT has helped truckers & brokers discover more available loads.

After all of their carrying on about not accepting a settlement with the USVI, JP Morgan has thrown in the cards and decided to pay their way out of trouble once again and this time it will cost them 75 million dollars. For the USVI it signals another financial windfall on the back of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes, even they themselves have been accused of enabling and enriching themselves off of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes. When you add up the money that the USVI has now recieved in various settlements, it dwarfs the amount in total that has been paid out to the survivors. Meanwhile, none of the other co-conspirators have been arrested or even charged. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:JPMorgan to pay $75m to settle Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking lawsuit with US Virgin Islands | The Independent

The SEC notched another FCPA settlement, continuing its steady pursuit and resolution of FCPA cases. In the meantime, the Justice Department has been silent in the FCPA enforcement arena. In this episode of Corruption, Crime, and Compliance, Michael Volkov dives into the SEC's recent FCPA settlement with Moog, a global manufacturer that faced severe bribery allegations within its Indian subsidiary. From navigating India's complex tender processes to revealing corrupt practices and hefty penalties, Michael dissects Moog's compliance failures and highlights the critical role of ethics in international business dealings.Listen in as he discusses:Moog, Inc. ("Moog"), a New York-based global manufacturer of motion controls systems for aerospace, defense, industrial, and medical markets, agreed to pay a civil penalty of $1.1 million and disgorge nearly $600,000 for a total of $1.7 million, to resolve FCPA charges arising out of bribes paid by its wholly owned Indian subsidiary, Moog Motion Controls Private Limited (Moog Motion Controls).Moog India allegedly bribed officials from the South Central Railway (SCR) and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to influence tender processes and exclude competitors. These bribes were often disguised as “contractor services.”From 2020 to 2022, Moog employees bribed various Indian officials to win business. Also, they used a variety of schemes to make improper payments, including funneling them through third-party agents and distributors. These same Moog employees also offered cash bribes to Indian officials in an attempt to cause public tenders in India to favor Moog's products and exclude competitors.The case highlights significant gaps in Moog's internal controls, including improper invoice recording, inadequate oversight of third-party agents, and a lack of compliance training.Moog self-reported the misconduct, terminated those involved, enhanced its compliance program, and strengthened accounting controls and auditing procedures for third-party interactions.ResourcesMichael Volkov on LinkedIn | X (Twitter)The Volkov Law Group

Ryan from Indiana shares two tales of subtle yet spine-chilling encounters with the unknown. First, there's the hauntingly soft, slightly strained exhale in the middle of the night that jolted him awake—and not just once. But if a ghostly breathing roommate wasn't odd enough, his second tale dives into an experiment involving a ghost-hunting app, an image of Jesus, and an unexpected duet of mist and crashing waves... all from his bathroom.

In this in-depth episode of True Crime Deep Dive, we unravel the complex and tragic downfall of Alex Murdaugh, once a powerful South Carolina attorney who now sits behind bars, convicted of murdering his own wife and son. But before that shocking turn of events, there was another tragedy that began the unraveling of his seemingly untouchable life—the 2019 boat crash that killed 19-year-old Mallory Beach. What began as a night of fun for a group of friends quickly turned into a nightmare when Paul Murdaugh, Alex's youngest son, allegedly crashed their family boat into a bridge while under the influence. The incident not only took Mallory's life but also set off a series of legal and financial investigations that would ultimately lead to Alex's downfall. This episode follows the chain of events that emerged from that fateful night—lawsuits filed by Mallory Beach's family, mounting financial pressure on Alex Murdaugh, and his desperate attempts to conceal his theft of millions from clients and colleagues. As we explore the legal developments, including the 2024 settlement of the wrongful death lawsuit and the liquidation of Murdaugh's assets, we delve into the broader picture of how this high-profile case exposed a web of lies, corruption, and murder. With new revelations, ongoing legal battles, and the relentless pursuit of justice, this episode captures the unraveling of a legal dynasty and the shocking secrets that tore a family apart.
