🤨🤨 A state judge was lobbying Trump and his allies for a federal judgeship. Then the judge ruled in Trump’s favor in his defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prize committee. Then Trump nominated him to the federal bench. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Sarah Palin, who lost her long-running defamation lawsuit against the @nytimes.com in April (for the second time), is once again appealing, hoping to overturn the jury's verdict in a lawsuit that has been going for eight years and counting.

Jeffrey Epstein secretly invested millions of dollars with Peter Thiel. The huge profits on that investment will likely go to Epstein's advisers and ex-girlfriends, not to his victims. @mattgoldstein26.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/06/04/b...

In press conference just now, Musk refused to answer a question about this article and instead questioned @nytimes.com's credibility by misrepresenting a judge's recent ruling in an unrelated defamation lawsuit that Trump has filed against the committee that awards Pulitzer Prizes.

NEW: Trump's lawyers recently threatened to file a new lawsuit against CBS, alleging that "60 Minutes" defamed him in a segment about his actions against law firms. The threat was partly designed to give Trump more leverage in settlement talks with CBS's parent. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/b...

Based on this post, it would not surprise me if Trump or his allies threaten or actually file a lawsuit against NYT et al — similar to the suits he and others filed against the Des Moines Register over its erroneous poll, which they alleged violated state consumer protection laws.

A heartfelt plug for Susan Dominus’ “The Family Dynamic”, and for an I’ll-die-on-this-hill reason: It’s going to be a touchstone of family psychology—and exemplar of literary nonfiction—for years to come.
