"President Trump was acting within the scope of his office as President of the United States at the time of the incidents out of which the Plaintiff's defamation claim arose. Indeed, when providing the challenged statements, the President was speaking to or responding to inquiries from the press, much as the elected officials in the cases cited above were speaking to the press or making other public statements at the time of their challenged actions," the Justice Department's court filing stated.

Just when you think you've seen it all, Trump comes up with something new. I gotta hand it to him, he's quite the entertainer!

There's also this:

58.4 million in legal and compliance fees since 2015. I'm glad I'm not a sucker who donated to him or died in battle.

DOA, but they'll tie it up in court until after the election. Just another distraction.

Just to be clear, DOJ's argument that Trump was acting "within the scope of his employment" when he defamed E. Jean Carroll is not an effort to *take over* defense of the suit; it's an effort to have the suit *dismissed*—because the government itself can't be sued for defamation.


The DOJ is going to be a pile of rubble by the time Barr leaves.

Barr is human garbage.

My theory is now that Trump will lose the election, resign, and be pardoned for his many crimes by Pence.
